Because of course they're going to.

How much you wanna bet they're brown?

Tork bomb! That was almost a home-run robbing catch. We're moving slowly toward blowout territory.

Should we be concerned how much like an old man Riley runs?

Good call.

I thought I saw where SGL was supposed to come in?

Brant Hurter is off to a good start. He's at 25 pitches now—if he comes out for the third, I would guess he's facing two more guys max before SGL comes in.

Torres is really struggling right now.

Were it not for McStnky's hustle, Javy would have left us stranded without a run.

Tough short hop for Gleyber, but a good second baseman would have rushed in to get in on the big hop. No harm, though.

That third catch is in the conversation for greatest catch on video in history. That second catch, the way he slammed into that wall with his gloved wrist: isn't that how Junior broke his wrist?

I made this up with a simple ChatGPT image request and circles and lines from Snagit. I'm thinking of having T-Shirts made for Saturday. Who wants one?

I walked my route. Some of my brothers and my sister my have used bikes.

I don't remember her as being particularly statesmanlike before that.

It just looks really bush league for the seats behind the plate to be mostly empty, and most people watching don't have any clue as to what seats they are, how much they go for, that the people with those seats are in the ballpark anyway, or any of that. All they know is that they heard the Tigers are good but look, no one's coming to the games, probably because baseball is boring, isn't there an NBA playoff game we can put on?

Was she an honest actor before this? Honest question.

I wanted to see only enough of the video to see whether people laughed when he said Newsom should be tar and feathered. Instead just a wan smile by the woman, and nothing by anyone else. A federal election official is being completely serious about torturing a state-elected official. The slope slips even further. Just remember: it won't be as long as all that before they start coming after us for posting in this forum.

Yeah, it's almost never 100% of this and 0% of that anywhere. But I do believe it's true directionally.

I had a Free Press route starting the day before my 11th birthday and kept it going, no ****, until the summer of my 16th birthday, when I switched to hourly jobs. It was a Free Press route, early morning gig. The platonic ideal was up at 5am and on the road to deliver within ten or fifteen minutes. Actually, it was more like up around 615am and maybe out in half an hour. Too many days I got home with only a razor thin margin to get showered and dressed to catch the bus to school. Too many of those times my mom had to drive me for missing the bus because I dawdled too much on the route. She was not happy about it. All seven of us kids had routes. Our house was were Paper Dropoff Central because three of us were paperboys at any given time, and there would be a couple other kids in the neighborhood with routes. So we'd walk out to the front porch and there were the paper bundles. I don't know how my dad arranged that, but we didn't realize how good we had it. Nowadays, kids don't deliver papers. I'm not even sure they're allowed to anymore. Now it's adults driving cars who deliver papers. We get the Trib and the NYTimes delivered on Saturday and Sunday. Our "paperboy" lives in Des Plaines—I know because the end-of-year tip envelope we get gets mailed there. Des Plaines is half an hour away by car even when the Kennedy is not under construction. And the Kennedy is under heavy construction right now. I know it's end of year when two things happen, even beyond the envelope: (1) the paper gets delivered all the way to my front door instead of on the walkway near the front fence; and (2) it comes around 7am instead of the usual 830am or 9am. Then, after the first of the year, everything reverts back to "normal". Imagine that.

There's that, but also, since he lives near immigrants, he knows who they are, perhaps even says hi and chats with them once in a while. I don't know whether he actually does, but that's what most neighborly folks would do. Almost all the red hats who are mightily exercised about the immigrant population don't live near any immigrants. Immigrants are a scary other to them, so red hats will believe any bad lie that's told about immigrants.

Because it's a bad look that could potentially cost them ticket buyers in the future. As a marketer, I can attest that they have a concern about it. Ever go to a game in iffy weather, and/or for an iffy team, where they announce 30,000 tickets sold but clearly less than half of them showed up? It could be said why should the team care, they got the money, mwah hah hah hah. But even beyond the loss of in-game revenue, no-shows also creates bad energy both in the ballpark and on TV, and that can affect excitement for the team and, consequently, ticket sales. It's not only about today. It's a long game for them.

And even the First Nations people are said to have originally immigrated here from Asia.

I hope protesters show up in DC on June 14th waving Mexican flag. Hey, why the **** not? It's Flag Day, isn't it?

I have zero respect for anyone who says immigrants pose a cultural problem.

Suits me fine.
