Hard to get upset about today. They battled and almost swept a good team.

I assume west siders? Like Holland area? My wife and I didn't technically live together as I never changed my address, but we got married in 1998 and she bought our first house in late 1997 so for those few months I was sort of in both places.

Seems like this is said every year but a baseball team 11 games into the season is the equivalent of an NFL team in the first quarter of game 2.

Even if she resigns the Senate? man the Senate is stupid with their 60 vote rules. That's based on old precedent that they were a more "deliberative" body and serious rather than a clown show. Of course if the situation was reversed the Dems would be nice and genteel and vote for a replacement. The GOP plays hardball. Not the dems. They think it's 1985 still.

MB said if she resigns the GOP said they still won't let her on, I guess that refers to resigning the committee and not teh Senate? I assume if she resigns from the Senate then the dems can fill the seat.

Wait... what's the process that allows a minority party to control assignments to a committee when a member resigns?

DeSantis will off set those missing Trump voters with the suburban vote because we all know that their biggest fear is Disney and Gay people.

What do you mean? He got Chip Roy!

He probably thought they were drag queens and as we've learned from Bud LIght, nothing is scarier and brings more fear to old conservatives with guns than a drag queen. They will cower in fear and curl up in the fetal position.

and newsmax and OAN. Those are the ones who can be "Gawker-ed"

What's wrong with being sexy?

The last game they lost was in extras.

Yep. This. No result would have given us what we wanted. A verdict against Fox with all kinds of embarrassing testimony could have occurred and they wouldn’t lose a single viewer. We all know the truth and testimony isn’t needed to confirm it. Fox was never going to be bankrupted or hosts fired.

Shep has a bit of Hawk in him. Not a fan of “sits him down” as a strike out call. I don’t recall Mario targeting the oppo like that. Comes across as a little too homerish.

Not too surprised except that it came now. Unless Fox panicked and upped their offer. As I said I can’t blame dominion. Their responsibility is to themselves. If you as a business sue for defamation then the resolution is a business resolution. It’s not their job to fix the political media landscape. (I stole that sentence from twitter)

Shep assumes the fans are all leaving without knowing there's a 2nd game coming up in about 30 min?

What exact agenda offends them? Who is harmed by whatever it was that Disney did. Be nice to LGBTQ. that's their beef. Remember that. I wish we had some smart right wingers around to explain to me the problem because I know I'm now biased the other way but I'm open to being told I'm wrong and there's something I'm not considering.

If everyone followed Ron's direction and felt Disney was too "woke" and decided not to go... what does that do to Florida's tax revenue?

agree with your decision on posting here.

frankly congress needs more of people like her, specifically women. In most cases, I think they're smarter at running things.

If I were at that point and deciding where t live I would probably avoid Florida for that reason, along with the weather. We've gone to Florida twice in the last few years and I happen to like the climate. But after staying in Ft Myers Beach last year and seeing that destruction turned me away. Maybe in 10 years it will be different. I always told my wife if we lived there we'd be cheap in terms of furnishings, assuming it might all be washed away, and we'd keep a few emergency totes of boxes stored away with our important stuff and if a storm is coming, grab the totes, and head north somewhere until it's over and we've lost nothing important.

They like to throw in lines of dialog similar to what was in a movie.... like "this is the life we've chosen" vs Hyman Roth's "This is the business we've chosen"
