  1. Are perfect games overrated? You don't have to be great to throw one and your legacy doesn't change if you do. Nobody says 'well this guy was better because he pitched a no hitter and the other guy didn't". Nolan Ryan has the record and he's not on any serious lists for best pitcher ever.
  2. I don’t count games like this. Weather games are iffy so to me they are like exhibition games. Right now all I am thinking is growth and evaluation. Hard to do that when the conditions suck.
  3. Florida being invaded by Texas.... have at it boys. It'll be like Iran/Iraq in the 80's. Can't lose.
  4. how lucky growing up to have these theme songs to listen to?
  5. Is that the show that had Lasorda on as the wizard? I remember it.
  6. and you are close to Loui's. gotta get back there.
  7. I just see the whole thing as a bunch of guys in suits and corporate people from the "boojie" suburbs (that's a term my wife and I use) getting rich off the lower income communities. Let those cities get the stigma and we'll get the money. We'll laugh at them. I'm not judging the use of it at all.
  8. Some organizers wanted to do a "Spark in the park" at Hazel Park. Residents fought it and it was squashed. Now I'm not commenting on whether pot is good or bad or whatever.... but good for the residents of Hazel Park. I saw a few of the attorney organizers on TV lamenting the decision and I wanted them to be asked "Why don't you do this where you live? Have it in Northville or Birmingham or Bloomfield Hills.
  9. These are the times I've laughed the hardest... meaning I really thought I was going to pass out. 1) The Naked Gun when he went to the bathroom 2) Dumb and Dumber 3) First time I heard the Jerky Boys, 1993 or so. They were bootlegs floating around 4) Gilbert Gottfried on Norm's podcast. They were discussing Michael Douglas, how he said he got throat cancer, Gottfried throwing out that "it's a small price to pay to *censor* Catherine Zeta Jone's *censor*"... , then adds "I'd *censor* her *censor* for lupus". Then it delved into the Jerry Louis telethons and Tony Orlando and him making one of the kids sing the chorus to Ghostbusters....
  10. Lake Shore Drive is a group I've caught on with.
  11. I've said many times I was technically a part delegate. They got a hold of me somehow and asked me to do it. This was 2012 or something like that. I went ahead and did it. Then I started getting the emails. It was pathetic. These people were morons just based on the emails they'd send. This was the downriver/dearborn area. I can only imagine Macomb.
  12. man this is all way too complicated. If it were just me I would do all of that but no way my wife and younger son would keep up.
  13. Dude my wife thinks I am weird because I like her so much. She thinks I’m obsessed. I follow her on social media. “Look it’s Brandi and her wife and their kids getting ice cream”
  14. Democrats need to play this shit for every ounce this election. Roll the clips over and over. Tucker. Trump. Pompeo. All of them.
  15. I don’t have access to the data anymore but was wondering if someone here could figure something out What is the winning % when a team outhits the other team?
  16. we can't raise taxes, fix the roads, then deny ourselves campaign talking points in 4 years.
  17. "Why do our roads suck!" Driving into Ohio "WHY ARE THEY ALWAYS DOING CONSTRUCTION IN OHIO!"
  18. I make more money than I did then and I've cut costs. My financial position is a lot better than it was a year ago. Mental health is also better. I'm running a lot more miles than I did, I just completed my first road half marathon. Got some things done around the house I was putting off.
  19. the people who are not better off are those who listened to republicans about HCQ, Ivermectin, Vaccine resistence, covid deniel, etc.
  20. what the hell have they been doing in China the last year? Nobody vaccinated? You'd think of all the countries in the world they could have done this better?
  21. My tickets in my app for May 10 say TBD. I assume it's right after the 1:10 game. Is that the DH where the Tigers are the road team for one of them?
  22. The 5 pm start makes it bad for me to make it... oh well.
  23. Guy burns house down New guy comes in to clean up "House was better when the old guy was here"
  24. they'll fart in their general direction
