That was my #1 nugget gleaned from those emails.

It does, which supports my point.

Delta taking their sweet old time announcing which flights are cancelled Thursday

They tend to skip over the other nine amendments in the Bill of Rights

Social media feeds going algorithm based and raking in ad revenue from pumping rage bait into feeds and sending us to our echo chambers. Twitter's IPO was November 2013. That is around the time the toxic en****ification of social media commenced.

My fiscal conservative roots take over when I hear about things like 50 year mortgages and crypto deregulation. Not for me, but if people want to be stupid and partake, it is their funeral.

Kenny is doing the game, and I wouldn't rule out Marv being in there.

He likes the tax breaks. I watched the first episode, and I think I'm in for the rest. 100% on RT right now too.

Lest I add a parent to this thread, because that is not the point of this thread and those close to me were already aware of that battle (hence my taking some of the jabs at dementia personally in the political threads), but I wanted to share this observation. When you lose a parent the same day as a Vice President dies, it is pretty cool to think the half staffed flags are for your mother.

Dems rejected that proposal because it would result in several people losing health care benefits come January 1.

Minor league free agents hit the transactions log. There are some missing, so I don't necessarily know if that means they are back. I can't easily copy and paste my cross checked list at the moment, but will later.

Apparently? People were taking his Skubal to the Mets idea seriously a couple weeks ago despite the fact that one of the guys he suggested was already traded. Tell tale sign that was a half assed proposal with no more legitimacy of random Twitter dude.

I havent listened to the Tiger Territory that dropped this morning yet, but given how quickly some things they say get parroted here, I assume there is some Bichette talk?

I was going to copy and paste, but will just link the post:

Glad the left is still mocking dementia patients. Be better.

Options due today, qo's due today, keeping the 40 man at 40 after activating 60 day IL's today, minor league free agents become free agents today. We should get a resolution on Urquidy and Sewald, as well as the QO decision on Torres. Depending on those options, some 40 man trimming may need to be done.

There is also a lot of loss aversion fallacy in the "You have to re-sign him at all costs" talk. Once he hits free agency, the calculus is the same for all teams (except for tax/draft picks compensation on the edges). 2027 Tigers sans Skubal are the same whether they had him in 2026 or not.

I am amazed at the amount of log cabin maga within my social circles. The dissonance is astounding.

I have Hulu... Overall, I am generally happy with it, but it had some major issues early October and I couldn't stream parts of game 2 of the Mariners series. Also doesn't have Bally/FD/(whatever sportsbook that buys the naming rights with the money they have pilfered from gambling addicts )Sports, but for me that means no Rays/Marlins games.

Today is the last day you can put somebody who was added to the 40 man since August 15 on waivers until early March. I am looking at you Tanner Rainey.

Even an extension that only buys out arb years would reduce AAV in the late years if you are up against the tax then.

I am fine with an extension. The catcher risk would be baked in.

I would say your odds are not 1 in 12 but rather 1 in 8 with a bye or 1 in 16 without.
