Here’s your first mistake when replying to Bunker.

I don’t think that possibility is lost on Justice, or anyone else surrounding them.

This all makes sense to me when I see it through the prism of comp for their labor. If Baseball were to take away the ball-strike responsibility from the umpires, which is probably the highest-level responsibility they have currently, an argument could be made that umpires would not need as high a level of proficiency to do the overall job, which could lead to accepting less-experienced umpires who could work for cheaper, which could work to being down overall comp eventually. It could be fairly counterargued that the umpire’s union would protect the high comp level for their members, and I could see that being the case for this and maybe the next contract, but over time, the reduced need for highly-proficient umpires may work toward bringing down the overall quality needed, and the comp down with it. All speculation, of course.

Sorry, gotta share this tweet.

See? This is what I mean. Maybe it's not literally always "whatabout Democrat so-and-so", but it's never "Trump didn’t do that”, amirite?

I saw this on a Geography King video. Pretty cool.

Dylan Cease has a mustache, and I noticed one of the Angels’ relievers last night does, too. It doesn’t look any better on them than it looked on us in the 1980s.

Asks the guy who keeps asking to take the discussion outside the forum.

lol “restrictions on outside income”

I wouldn’t say the vast majority of cops are “good”. I would say the vast majority of cops are people, with a sliding scale of ethics that filter the situation at hand through a combination of their personal backgrounds and their interpretation of their police training. I also believe that many people who profess to “back the blue” think of the police as a quasi-military force that will firefight their culture war for them.

Which may be exactly why that little shitbird congresscritter from Texas said last night that Democrats planned for this to happen by not, I guess, preparing properly based on pre-insurrection intelligence. Maybe shitbird was getting out in front of the document you saw.

The other nets were not playing regularly-scheduled programming.

That strikes me as very, very big.

I don’t know, maybe not so “wow” …

I wouldn’t doubt that many world leaders do the same thing.

That might actually be a charge against him if they ever had the balls to do it: conspiracy to perpetrate fraud on the people of the United States.

Sure, and let’s be real, all the red hats knows he did all this stuff. Not even one person on that side denies that. When was the last time you said to a red hat you hate something Trump did and they replied, “he didn’t do that”? They know they can’t. Instead it’s always whatabout Democrat so-and-so. What they’re objecting to is that fuddy-duddy standards of accountability are being applied to his actions, and they hate that. None of this is criming, as far as they’re concerned. It’s just good old-fashioned hard-nosed politics. Hey, man, back off, nothing to see here. We’re just trying to make America great again. Why are you persecuting us?

I did. My bad?

You laugh, but wait until all of it is revealed and see if you’d still feel the same way.

Flipped over to Fox News briefly and saw two things in short order: While Nazi Ingraham was blathering, the crawl at the bottom read: Americans Are Smart Enough To Know That Democracy Wasn’t In jeopardy Some no account R congressman from Texas said, basically, Democrats had all the intelligence about it beforehand and did nothing about it, why?, because Democrats wanted it to happen. And so the Bonkers Brigade has been mobilized …

N/a. Nixon had the decency not to task David Eisenhower with a portfolio that included brokering Middle East piece, solving the drug crisis, liaison to Mexico, criminal justice reform, overhauling the Republican Party platform, and on and on.

Well, people who believe in evangelical Christianity—and those cynical people who pretend so they can exploit it for votes and power—would argue that this is not a secular society, but a Christian nation. Also, evangelical Christianity was never a live-and-let-live religion, at least not as practiced in America. It is very much a I-get-to-tell-you-what-to-do-and-you'll-like-it-or-else religion. The only thing that's missing is enforcement at the point of a gun which, not for nothing, is what they unironically claim taxation literally is.

Don't look now, but: And this includes three straight losses to New York right smack in the middle of this stretch.
