I didn't hear Harris refer to "our ballclub" in his press conference neither did I hear the words "happy" or "quality".

Which keeps in line with my thinking Rogue One is the best film they've done since Empire.

Tigers are 5-1 since Harris was signed.

I watched the first episode and liked it. Having trouble keeping up with my fantasy shows, luckily I didn't get into GoT. And we started Dahmer last night too.

if you were really ambitious you'd find the link for people in uniform in the debut game of the selected players in hte chain. Not managers or coaches. Saw a thing over the weekend that Dusty Baker was a participant in every 700 homer game. He was Aaaron's teammate, managed the Cubs against Bonds, and the other night.

No. I don’t get wrapped up into all of that because you can’t pick out what the cause and effects were. The numbers are the numbers and they reflect competition against your peers. breaking franchise records hasn’t been national news so it shouldn’t be now.

Wow. That’s sort of like when people would snatch up internet domains like “parts.com”. Imagine the points those people are racking up from crowdsourcing.

I spent a few minutes digging in via my phone and when Orosco debuted in 1979, Willie Mccovey was still in the league. When mccovey debuted enos slaughter was still playing at the age of 41.

People like that have a bigger bubble because I bet they spend a lot of time with their fellow church people. Hardcore Protestants and evangelicals go up to 4 times a week. They home school or send their kids to a Christian school.

In my hood gas prices snot up 40 cents overnight. Two stations had been at 3.89 for weeks now. This morning 4.29

based on the story in the News this pretty thin. Slotkin moved to Lansing area due to redistricting. She's renting a condo, at $2K a month, from someone who recently moved to CT. That someone is linked to a company that has does business with the US Gov't for many years. That company has had support from many members of congress from both parties and both they are their competitors have been awarded contracts. A quick check on furnished Condos in Lansing showed that's a normal price. She's not overpaying and he's not under charging.

service can even mean something like coaching a youth sports team or being a scout leader. Heck, even officiating youth sports. That is an industry that will be hurting very soon.

The Bush family in particular had almost a religious zeal to service. Both George and Barbara's families were upper crust and established in the north east and subscribed to the message of Luke 12:48.

It was around the same time. Both happened in spring training 2014 but I don't recall which came first.

I guess I’m naive and fortunate because I don’t care about interest rates. I carry no CC debt. My mortgage is under 4. I’m not moving. I don’t need my investments for another 13-14 years. The only impact potentially is my car leases are up late next year but I have the sale price locked in if I want to buy and am fine doing that. I also get employee pricing.

Love John King. And wolf always seems two steps behind.

I purposefully didn't want it for that reason, I think it will make me too upset. Same reason I don't want to watch Dopesick even though I love Michael Keaton. Plus I still have a beef with Ken Burns over his part in the legacy of Ty Cobb. A smart guy like Burns should have known better and he at minimum owes it to history to create a new "inning".

I still go to CNN for big news, even on election night. I assumed that's just because of how I was ingrained to think of it going back to Ted Turner and the 1980's. I used them for all the Queen stuff.

I don't disagree. But how did society treat people prior to Vick when it comes to those activities? From what I have read it was a common thing to do not just in black communities but generally poorer ones. It's great that it's been shunned properly and all of that. But was it right he took such a big bullet and so many others didn't? And it's not to suggest he didn't deserve it but comparing how outlets like ESPN act right now when we learn what we have about Favre.

I've seen some people bring up Michael Vick and how he was treated vs Favre. Have at it.

The Yankee record is 61 and as usual NY thinks the world revolves around them so whatever they are dealing with then everybody has to deal with it too. It would be a fun local story if anyone challenged Greenberg's 58 HR for the Tigers but I wouldn't expect people anywhere else to care about it. But overall Judge's season is newsworthy as it relates to Ohtani and the MVP race so there's that.

I believe Scherzer was hell bent on becoming a FA just so he could do his job to help raise the bar for others, unless he got a very very good deal from the Tigers before. But Ilitch probably didn't want to pay him more than Verlander, or Cabrera, and as a result got butt hurt when a player dare reject his "goodwill". You don't say no to Mike Ilitch. Doesn't matter if you are future HOFer's like Max Scherzer, Sparky Anderson, or Sergei Fedorov. So Mike made Dombrowski issue a press release to announce that negotiations broke off after they offered Max a huge deal. Before the season. Classy as always, those Ilitches.

that's not sustainable is it?

fixed that
