  1. I was just thinking the same thing—it works as a real emphatic call in the right moments.
  2. I don't know, teams might be a little skittish giving a 29-year-old designated hitter with an active injury history ten years and half a bill. Maybe someone will bite.
  3. Details, details ... 😉
  4. I think Greene would love to be president.
  5. I think Greene is a performance artist who is using Congress as a springboard to a bomb-throwing media career, so I wouldn't think she'd be interested in vice president anyway.
  6. Heard this morning that the Tucker Trump thing on "X" got 100 million views in the first four hours.
  7. Now they can complain how Fox has become just another liberal mainstream media propaganda organ beholden to the Biden crime family, or something.
  8. I grew up in suburban Detroit riding bikes on the sidewalks. Everybody did. It would have been insane to ride a bike right on 12 Mile Road or Van Dyke. The difference here is that there are people everywhere which is way they ban bikes on sidewalks. It’s a walking town. No one walks on sidewalks in metro Detroit. It’s a driving town. They’ve done a really good job in this town of marking off bike lanes separated from the driving lanes, some of them by permanent pylons and even parking lot blocks but they haven’t done that to Western yet, probably because it’s a suburban-sized artery with four driving lanes and a permanent middle lane, along with parking lanes on either side. There’s just not enough room. People who ride bikes or scooters on that street are nuts.
  9. Would this be far, far away enough?
  10. Western Ave. It was yesterday.
  11. OK, I see, thanks for rehashing. I wondered whether you were referring to something that had got by me. I had read the post speculating Trump lawyers inducing witnesses to lie, e.g., perhaps paying them. (I kind of think there were threats and/or maybe blackmail, too.) But I had already attached that thought to the idea of #4 flipping, so I regarded that as a single one-and-the-same package, not separating the two. When you mentioned the “obvious”, I thought maybe you were referring to something additional I’d missed. That’s why I asked.
  12. Left turn lane, 2023.
  13. I honestly did not know what you were talking about. I still don’t. What were you referring to? We have #4 flipping, what else is there?
  14. If by that you mean prosecutors made it clear that perjury could lead to long prison time, and that made #4 change his lawyer and stat telling the truth, then I see what you mean. If that’s not what you mean, then I don’t know what you mean.
  15. Along with at least nine other people who may or may not have been intentional collateral damage.
  16. What's going on behind closed doors?
  17. Related to this: Some 15% of restaurants in America already have these fees built, on the road to having 100% of them include them. And these fees are not supposed to supplement staff wages—they are meant to directly offset the business's costs, as though we are on the hook for those as opposed to them being the cost of doing business. Why not just hike the prices on the menu to cover these costs? From the story: Owners are opting to add fees because they’re worried they’ll drive away customers if they hike up menu prices, said Pat Doerr, managing director of the Hospitality Business Association of Chicago. Research shows people overwhelmingly choose where to go out to eat based on which place is least expensive, Doerr said. “When people see a $20 burger, they’re like, ‘That’s outrageous,’ or they don’t even see it at all because they’re searching for the two dollar sign places,” Doerr said. Owners “are trying to avoid positioning their place at the high end of the market, and a surcharge is one way to do that.” So, essentially, they are flat-out admitting they are deceiving the customer into believing the cost is less than they actually pay, which customers already accept in the case of taxes and tips, and are now supposed to accept in the case of the mere cost of doing business. Outstanding. I guess the only real solution here is, learn how to cook.
  18. With his plus D and an established stick at third base going into age 30, I think Jeimer might get something like 3/45 with a team option for a fourth year.
  19. Nancy Faust, the brilliant retired white Sox organist, has an opinion about it. .
  20. Lange succeeds at nailing high leverage situations. He'll be the guy next time, too.
  21. This Meadows kid seems like he’s pretty good at baseball.
  22. How about this? What was the line from that old move? Oh yeah ...
