Skub a little wild today

I've probably said it before but the slice of Beatles music I like the most is when they just rock and rolled in 3 part harmony - esp when George would get his licks in - "Ticket to Ride", "I Feel Fine", etc - _1964-65 stuff mostly.

LOL - I knew somewhere all the boys' names used the same letter, but 'C' for Clemens comes to mind first! 🤔

Clearly the Stone have built an enduring legacy and fan base, but they never clicked for me, even from the very beginning. I had bought one Stones album I thought I liked when Jones was still in the group - never listened to it much.

TBH, both bands did their share of covers.

As per the MLB.com page, the 40 is at 40 but includes Rogers and Turnbull, so that leaves room for Greene and Torkelson. Beyond that someone gets bumped. I can't imagine they are too attached to Del Pozo, and I could see them cutting Cody Clemens loose.

should the lineup card be in read, blue and purple instead of red, black and blue? And here I thought the Tigers were getting into advanced science!

Conservatives should oppose CU. It should be fundamental to conservative dogma that rights inhere in individuals, and only individuals. The only rights that flow to an organization are those of the individuals in it acting in coordination but individually. The officers in a corporation have rights as individuals to participate in the political process, there is nothing what so-ever in any sane reading of the Constitution that gives those rights to a economic entity per se, let alone where the managers are taking advantage of the resources of other individuals to act in the political sphere in ways that may well be contrary to those individuals' interests, let alone an entity (the corporation) which is wholly a creation of statue law to being with. You have to admit it's a pretty neat metaphysical bootstrapping trick to leverage fundamental rights into an entity created by a completely reversible act of a legislature. Let managers pay themselves the money they want to put into politics and then use it as individuals. That level of indirection creates an important and fundamental difference.

the problem here is that in the effort to pave the way for government officials to have professional spouses, they screwed it up. Instead of making COI rules just run both ways equally and apply to men as well as women, they relaxed them for spouses in the name of womens' rights, but that is a crock. There is no such thing as a marriage where one partner's interests, whether ideological or financial, don't impact the other. Anyone who says they believe the contrary is either lying, single or divorced. COI rules need to apply to married couples - period. And of course, no surprise McConnell is the other huge offender here.

I'm happy to hear he now seems to be sold on the idea of working up only with the 4 seamer. It seamed to me Casey used to try to muscle up on his two seamer and it would flatten out at about the waist and get crushed. It's OK if you mostly throw low with off speed - the more a guy gets out in front on a low pitch the more likely you are to get a nice GB.

Jack's story was that the presser was not done at ST camp. Of course Morris could be FOS, would hardly be the 1st time.

Same should have been true around health care where she was also an active lobbyist. Buddha's views not withstanding, Thomas is a legal bad joke.

He's included 10 John Does and 10 unknown companies. He literally doesn't know who he is suing. If Donald Trump's existence on this earth were to have one redeeming value, it would be for US courts to finally raise the bar against frivolous law suits.

clue in the NYT Crossword recently; Three letters, "Dropped at Harvard" answer "ARS"

He and the kid who caught Gonzales' fighting it out to win the 4th bermfielder spot.

cases up 100% today (86) in Washtenaw county

interesting observation - and spot on.

Marwin Gonzales with 2 RBI against Del Pozo, despite a perfectly good catch having been made on his fly ball (by a kid on the berm!)

HaHa. Jack just said that Dan Gladden (does radio for the Twins) told him Correa hasn't shown up at the Twins camp yet.

Clemens with a nice swing with men on base but it goes for an out in LF.

I have a pair of wired balanced armature Klipsch which I think were an awesome value/performance get, so when I went wireless I bought some Klipsch T5s (I can't wear 'pods at all, ear canals too small). I wouldn't say I've been disappointed, but they can't quite compare with the wired balanced driver version. But they are comfortable for me and most buds are not.

Miguel with a couple of nice swings today.

Willi is one of those guys who can be a positive player on a bad team, but ends up not doing enough things well to hold a spot as the players around him improve.

LHP/RHP, Victor don't care...
