“And you know something, they’ll get it… they’ll get it ALL from you sooner or later… because they own this fucking place! It’s a BIG CLUB…and YOU AIN’T IN IT! You and I are NOT in the BIG CLUB! By the way, it’s the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe.”

Pointedly, this chart has nothing to do with corporate tax rates.

I see one line item on the left that could be restructured to make up that deficit in a hurry.

This guy looks like the last thing you see before you die an ugly, violent death.

No. Studious. Anyone can study facts or processes and regurgitate them, like a Sidney Powell does. But just because she studied enough to become a lawyer does not make her de facto intelligent. Common sense is a non-sequitur in this instance.

That will be especially true if they juice the ball as I suspect they will. There's an outside chance this will be 1930 NL all over again, albeit with leagues hitting .270 versus .300 because of all the strikeouts.

That works if nobody gets shelled.

You just barely missed the "1" key.

I think what happens is that teams will keep more pitchers on their 40-man roster (maybe up to 25); they will trot out as many pitchers in a game as they can; they will max out the five-time option limits on their optional pitchers; and they will churn the waiver wire to get a consistent stream of fresh arms to throw at hitters. I also think we'll see an increase in mid-inning pitching changes and more three-and-done outings. Teams have been average around 3.3 to 3.4 relievers a game for the last five seasons. That might go up to four per game or even more. I think what we won't see is very much of leaving a quickly-tiring pitcher in there to get shelled, at least not until late.

Yachts for the rich. Yacht rock for the rest of us.

Fox would sooner give Dominion a billion dollars with no admission of guilt before they do what you suggest.

Ironic because Townhall readers almost certainly agree with the sentiment said anonymously.

Front-running bandwagoneers. They're probably Yankees fans and Cowboys fans, too.

I find it interesting how they are going to kill off Social Security just as I am approaching the age to be able to take it. 😏

There's a difference between being intelligent and being studious.

Well, that's one of the things TORK! has to prove this year, isn't it?

I thought I'd been seeing a ton of fluff pieces by Petzold, but mostly on the minor league free agents and whatnot.

I don’t know how everyone feels about network sitcoms, but Ghosts on CBS Thursday nights is one of the best in a long time. I knew that it was based on the UK series, but I just learned that HBO MAX has the UK Ghosts available, so that gives my wife and me another series in the queue to tackle.

Boring is the most effective kind of crime family. Drama’s bad for business.

Buscemi’s has (had?) a party store situation at their location at Martin and Hoover in Warren.

Something something tree of liberty something something blood of children.

That would empty out two-thirds of Congress!

I would never have considered Musk liberal, but I wouldn’t call the people who revered him liberals, either. True liberals generally have a distinct, defined ideology they base their belief systems on. The people in the Musk cult are basically contrarians who crave the recognition that they’re smarter than anyone else, so they embrace whatever new idea or icon that comes along that they believe will help prove that. That’s what I think the sudden surge of red hats was all about: people who discovered “politics” for the first time through RW online media and now want to demonstrate how smart they are about it by endlessly spouting all the talking points to the rest of us. It’s also why I believe people like this will bounce from new extreme left-wing ideas to new extreme right-wing ideas in basically the snap of a finger. They want to stay one step ahead of the sheeple.
