Only 1,450 miles from top to bottom on Greenland? How can that be?! It’s way bigger than the whole America on the map!

Maybe the same kind of strategy as batting Baez cleanup the day immediately after bending him mid-game.

Also, those drunken, derelict, deplorable, unassimilable Germans. Good thing we don’t have those Krauts to deal with here in our one true America.

Good thing we slammed the door shut on the Irish way back when and we don’t have to put up with this damn, dirty, disgusting Micks anymore.

Possibly in large part because these cities are populated by a high percentage of immigrants, many of them undocumented who are working hard and and keeping their heads down.

Yeah, I wasn’t buying that ABC Trump +7 any more than I am buying AnonymousPolls Biden +9 in PA. Especially the latter: given that they self-identify as “conservative”, it’s at least as likely they’re gaming the questions and results to spur red voters to action as they are to objectively reflect the views of the people.

Maybe even with a very good season, Baez doesn’t opt out after all. Maybe he sees what’s going on here, the direction we’re gong in, the plan being put in place, the fruits of the plan and the efforts, and decides he wants to stick around and be a part of it. I don’t know whether I want that or not. It’s all up to him. But I guess, all of a sudden, that’s a possibility.

Hinch haters here will hate this.

I’m very pleased that we won yet another series, and from Cleveland in Cleveland, but we probably should have swept it.

I love watching a Hall of Famer, but I have priorities, too … IMG_9653.mov

Meanwhile, here in the beer capital, Trayce Thompson hitting like he belongs in Toledo after all.

It also wasn't 1945-46 when you were there. I might even argue that, because of the approach they took in 1945-46, you were able to fraternize in 1980- or 90-whatever.

FWIW, I don't think GHWB was particularly "normal" as a Republican. He was part of the Reagan cabal that set the party on a course toward the extreme right, for cry eye. The only thing Bush had going for him that made him seem statesmanlike was that he successfully prosecuted a war against Saddam (whom, as you may remember, he successfully rechristened as "Sodom".) Plus, Bush was genuinely avuncular as well, which you don't see much of in today's R. I think the last of the "normal" Republicans was Eisenhower, and that's because he was basically the last of the extinct Dewey faction of the party.

Not for nothing, I have always hated that they've successfully labeled the public pension and health insurance that we are supposed to get as senior citizens which were funded by the taxes we all paid as productive workers "entitlements", as though they're trying to goad us into feeling guilty for being entitled to free handouts by Uncle Sucker, or something like that. Calling them "entitlements" makes it easy for Cocaine Mitch's rhetoric to take hold among the working-class rubes, those that would benefit from it the most, who end up opposing it because they envision all the wrong people living it up on their dime. It would be ****ing shameful if those political ****ers could feel any shame.

Tubehead doesn't want to lump those who were motivated by rhetoric to overthrow legitimate government elections but couldn't get inside the Capitol together with those who were motivated by rhetoric to overthrow legitimate government elections and did get inside the Capitol. He thinks it's un-American to condemn the sympathizers for the actions of the activists. Although America had no trouble lumping them all together when guys like my dad were called to stand guard over Germany after the war.

A little OOTP humor for you ...

Yeah, and he’s going down, because he has zero teflon. He’ll be the sacrificial lamb to Democratic pressure on Republican criminality in general, and perhaps even a bargaining chip as well. “OK, fine, you got one of ours, now you owe us one of yours … we call to the stand Hunter Biden …”

They were always jealous of Kennedy. Young guy, articulate, eloquent, charismatic, hot young wife, groupie magnet. Who was the last Republican you can think of who filled that bill? Honest question, there might be one, I’m just coming up blank on it.

They’ll just argue the verdict was cooked, and besides, the only ones they will blame for this whole thing are Justice and the judicial system, which, obviously, will have to be reformed. #Trump2024

There are no absolutes. Everything is negotiable.

Winning games is also one of the skills organizations want to teach in the minors. Handling winning is also a skill. But yes, they are more likely to go against the book on what’s needed to win this game today in order to test someone’s mettle in a high leverage situation instead. Kind of like Hinch is doing with this team.

Another hit for Cups!

It's because of him that I even knew what Infowars and ZeroHedge were. There's a war on for your mind!
