The first time I experienced Dead culture in person was in 2016 at Pine Knob. It was the nicest and most polite crowd at a concert I ever saw. Bumping into people in crowded lines and such.... no problem. Everybody was so cool. "Hey man, excuse me... sorry about that dude..." "It's all good..". There was a instagram reel I saw of two young ladies who were complaining they were told they were seeing a John Mayer concert and instead it was a Grateful Dead concert. They were decked out in daisy dukes and halter tops expecting to dance to pop bubble gum love songs.

According to some models the rain may start as early as 2. I say keep tomorrow's day game as it is for those customers who already bought tickets for htat, then move tonight's night game to tomorrow night. So you tell fans to come down Thursday evening instead of Wednesday evening. But again... maybe the players themselves prefer this route instead of playing tomorrow evening. As usual the consideration of the fans is the last item for discussion.

Detroit travels to Miami and Anaheim travels to Toronto. No reason they can't play 2 tomorrow. Unless of course the players and org are ok with slogging through the crap today. Who knows.

This is a game that shows how judging pitchers by ERA can be tricky. Granted defense goes both ways so you can't say "Well it should have been 6-2" or whatever because if you remove your own miscues then in fairness you remove theirs... but in evaluating pitchers, ERod deserved better. His defense let him down.

They need to just postpone this now. Play 2 tomorrow. Besides Beyonce is at Ford Field and nobody wants to deal with all that traffic.

I really enjoyed it. My son told me he kept hearing “woke” instead of communism. I would watch again in a heartbeat.

Lance Parrish.

Was Abby Elliot pregnant in real life? Her face looked like it. Fun trivia, she's the only SNL cast member who was a child of a cast member. Chris was on during the horrible mid 90's period, before the turnover to the Will Ferrell led cast.

so it's your belief if they didn't send the can of beer to the trans person that the good old country/frat boys would have been just as mad?

I don't know about you but when I think of Travis Tritt and Kid Rock the first thing that comes to mind is "fratty".

I know, that's why I say it was debunked.

I'd throw out the thousands of other two sport athletes throughout history at the HS and college level that couldn't do it. He was picked in the 37th round of the MLB draft. I'm not saying he couldn't have it or wouldn't have but the odds say he wouldn't. That's true for the vast majority of players drafted.

It's been debunked but I still love the theory that Donny wasn't real, just a figment of Walter's imagination. The theory being that nobody else actually talks to him and he's some remnant from a Vietnam flashback. It's the kind of thing I could see the Coens putting out there to have people pick apart.

Finished The Bear. All I will say is every walk in cooler I have been in had a plunger type thing you pushed to open the door from the inside.

The odds say no.

I liked hateful eight but haven’t had any urge to watch again. But it’s good and definitely worth seeing. Hollywood is one that grew on me more and more to the point I think it’s just below Pulp/Dogs/Basterds and above the Bill movies in ranking. Jackie Brown is hard to rank because so much of it is from Elmore Leonard.

Fanbase as a whole. Some people get way too intense though.

The Jeckyl/Hyde of TIgers Twiter is at it again.

You have the timeline wrong. They gave a beer to a trans person. Bigots went ape **** because they don't want "fags drinking our beer too" The marketing person explained their rationale of wanting to reach other consumers. Bigots complained more about being called bigots. I guess the fault is believing their core customers were better people.

A friend of mine worked at the Ritz in the 90's and told me similar things about how they track their guests. Except in one instance it wasn't flattering. There was a Pizza Hut franchisee in the area, kind of well known, also a very big guy. He would take dumps in the bathtub. That was noted in the computer. I'm trying to think of anything Oliver Platt was in that wasn't great. What I like about The Bear is they don't go out of their way to explain things. Someone like Del obviously knows things that regular viewers don't but they leave it to us to either figure out or be in the dark and I'm ok with that. Treats the viewers with respect. Plus it would lose it's pacing and authenticity. Ron Howard dumbed down one of my favorite movies of all time, Apollo 13 so I'm not being that critical, but you won't have the reality of mission control people explaining basic orbital mechanic issues to each other. The Bear doesn't do that and I like it.

You believe that calling the brand "fratty" is ****ting on the consumers and that's what prompted the outrage? It wasn't being nice to the trans person? Like if she didn't say that on the podcast it would have been cool? If anything the reaction, which included bomb threats, supports the idea, which the VP didn't express, is that the Tritts, Kid Rocks, and Ben Shapiro's of the world are indeed ****ty people. I don't know why you defend that.

I'm not surprised he was out but am surprised they overturned based on that.

Jim Aducci. Respectfully known as The Deuce. He runs Toledo like a boss. Baseball was just a ruse to keep in the action. As Jim Cowan once said after an ejection he wanted it because then he would rummage through the lockers looking for loose change and cigaretts.

technically I guess I can't get mad if they lose this won because my rule is just win the series and they already took the first two.

yeah episodes 6 and 7 were great, we watched them back to back which I think is the best way to view it.
