I haven't checked on the phone, but on the web via browser there used to be a 10 second increment/decrement dialog on gameday audio, and it's gone this year - along with the extended buffering being added. Things have shifted a lot this season. The gameday cartoon on the web is now generally ahead of my TV stream by a pitch or two, which it never used to be, gameday audio is as you note - a full minute behind. This is almost exactly the reverse of what it had been in the past yrs with gameday audio having been the closest to real time. Of course no way to know how much of this is local to my ISP (ATT) but that is how things line up for me at home now.

the increase or the trouble for investors? Payment on a 100K for 30yr at 3.5% = $449. At 6.0% = $600. 150 = 33% of 450 Of course a mortgage payment may include taxes and insurance so the net increase in a prospective total payment may be a lower % of that larger total, but that is the calc for the mortgage piece.

well, lets see: Crypto gets wiped out, housing gets wiped out, Tesla gets wiped out. P&G probably looking pretty good! Need lots of soap to clean up the mess....🙄

an increase from 3.5% to 6% increases a 30yr mortgage payment by a third. I think a lot of investment buyers of housing for resale are going to get hosed.

I've had that thought that myself. Especially if Greene had come up and hit for average with little power initially, which I think would have been and is likely. It would have taken pressure off Torkelson to try to bomb the ball, which the team power slump only makes worse. Hit first. Worry about power later.

this is actually a good illustration of how a trait exists on a spectrum across the human population. There are people who are so strongly 'handed' they do nothing with their off hand. There there people who are nearly completely ambidextrous, and there are those of use that exist somewhere in between. For instance I am moderately strongly right handed but left footed. Once a person brings that kind of recognition to a trait like sexual drive, homosexuality as some kind of moral "issue" dissolves. The rest is all social construct.

right. But we are always left with the question of what the margin is between the MAGA and the total GOP vote, and I suspect there still is one. As long is there is daylight between those two numbers, you have to pursue things for that margin as well as for history.

Of course, it's complicated. There is belief, there is religion, there is organized religion, there are specific sects of specific religions, and there are specific outcomes that certain sects have been responsible for. Certainly anyone without vitriol for some of those outcomes (ISIS, child abuse, profiteering) would have to be lacking a pulse. Things get progressively grayer as you move left to right across that list. 🤔

How much longer were they going to wait to move?

the interesting part is that surgically reconstruction is prefered to repair. From a purely mechanical perspective you might think the process would be aided by only having to do one end, but apparently not. I've haven't seen exactly how they do a UCL but I have seen schematics of ligament replacement techniques (ACL) where they do a looping attachment, in which case the remains of the existing ligament aren't any help - not long enough.

yes - but I'd take those 185 miles in more like 18 days!

One problem is the Fed has too many customers whose interests are at cross purposes. A big jolt to interest rates would be the fastest way to stop inflation, which helps the most people, though possibly throw some out of work as well -for once that is not so much an issue because the job market it tight. But it would crater stocks and the Fed is made up of bankers and bankers don't like it when their friends in the capital class get hammered. A shock level rise in interest rates would also be a windfall for todays short sellers of stock, and wall street hates short sellars, and the Fed is wall street people.....

I see what you did there.

well, that qualifies for a pumpkin.

When did curved numbers become 'crooked'? The only truly crooked number is "7"

Prince is 38 and Cecil has a kid entering college?

444 dead center, would have been at the flag pole of old Tiger Stadium before the renovation.

Somebody found Jose one of last year's baseballs.

day late, dollar short.

no doubt, but Eddings had been giving the outside all game, so the Tigers should have known.

Fulmer doing well with that shorter slider. He doesn't seem to yank it as often as the big breaker.

decent AB for Tork there, but not quite barreled. But Sousa didn't try to work him outside....(or tried and failed)

Javy swung at a strike. Baby steps.

if it's something he has to travel to travel to Venezuela for then who knows if he could be back in less than 7 days. FWIW, he pitched really well in the rehab start, you would think that argues against it being a baseball issue.

Funny, he has never hit LHP better and nowadays with his preference to inside out the ball, he really does not like it when a LHP comes inside on him. He fouled off the two on the inside, but when Sousa left one on the outside he tagged it.
