  1. at least the 2nd he's missed by than a full ball's width. Challenge can't come soon enough. And scoring is going to go way up. Probably what they are worried about.
  2. Don't tell that to the Dolphins...😉 But correct - it's a whole different system. And for that matter, not only have the contractual issues changed but the importance of the position has done nothing but increase, so today you not only need to have good backup QB to keep hope alive if your #1 went down, you'd probably need an elite one since more often than not, a good team today revolves around not just good QB play, but elite QB play.
  3. I don't know if it's accurate to say they will regret moving Mize to the 60 because I don't really think they care that much about wins and losses right now, but after throwing 35 pitches last night, Casey will be ready well before 9/1.
  4. Arizona GOP is so revived the GOP mayor of Mesa AZ is endorsing Harris/Walz.
  5. Yeah - And entertainment pages have always been cheaper to produce than actual hard news.
  6. The Micheal Crowley piece could have been written by a Tucker Carlson intern.
  7. Legend in his own mind.
  8. I would guess mostly the oligarch owners. The kind of noblesse oblige that drove old money people like Katherine Graham to run a liberal newpaper is more than ever the exception to the rule (for which I do give Bezos some credit at WaPO). We are 30 years into the internet and the newspaper business still is searching for a workable business model.
  9. While it wasn't that unusual in ' 72, guys like Earl Morrell as backups are pretty rare in today's league. Most backups tend to inexperienced guys. Quarterbacks as good as Morrell would have gotten too expensive to have as backups in today's NFL. They either still have their starting gig or they made enough to retire....
  10. Someday you can tell your grandchildren how you survived the great stock market crash of Aug 5 2024 because your internet happened to go down for 48 hrs and you just missed it. anyway, the market has already ordained that the Fed is going to cut 50 pts in Sept. But if initial unemployment claims stay low they just might not.
  11. What does it tell us that the most celebrated song writer of one era was writing that, while the most celebrated song writer of this era writes about bad boyfriends? Of course today Dylan claims he never meant anything by it. He'll tell you he was just stringing some words together.
  12. there is an art to getting your glove turned around to open upward on a dive that even many major leaguers never fully master. For a master class lesson see Parker's nab of that sinking liner the other night where the fingers of his gloves were literally on the ground - glove open upward, as ball landed on/in them for the out.
  13. Vest is the proof that 98 doesn’t matter if you can’t get ahead.
  14. He doesn't impress as much of a fielder. On almost every fly he catches he has to make a last second lunge.
  15. well that sucks
  16. Hinch could have moved Vierling to the OF. Could have started Perez in the OF.
  17. Lugnuts are getting a little loose here. .....Sammons gets away clean.
  18. Tigers still hanging around in this one - waiting to be no-hit I guess.
  19. and people still think Colt can't play 2B?
  20. Cult figure, charlatan, same difference. If you bought Tesla on the 1st day of trading in 2021, you've lost 17% of your investment, S&P up 43 % over the same interval.
  21. Casey throws 35 pitches. 7 outs, 0R 3H 2K 1BB
  22. Bozeman seems to still be go. Events in NC today were cancelled due to weather.
  23. Mize gives up hits to his 1st two batters, follows up with a DP and a K. FB @ 96
  24. NCAA is an ossified, obsolete, unworkable organization. Jim Harbaugh is a whack job (even if he can coach football). A match made in media heaven.
  25. She could do a townhall on Fox just fine, but not agree to be a spectator at a Trump rally, which is what the odds on probability a Fox debate with Trump would be.
