No other posts in six hours? I guess this means our Black Friday is pretty meager.

That wasn’t pretty. But it counts.

I guess a win is a win is a win but after suffering through so many thanksgivings, an emphatic blowout in terms of scoring and not just offensive yards would be nice. There’s the old saying “God doesn’t give with both hands.” We’ll end up with a win in all likelihood, but it won’t be a dream win.

I never get what I want. Life is unfair.

I would like to see the Bears lose 20 yards in this possession so they would be in the negative for offensive yards not because it means anything but because I like revenge.

I used to really enjoy Fake Jim Leland. It was really a great nod and a wink insider sort of account. Only enthusiasts could ever really get it and appreciate it. I’m still curious as to who it could’ve been.

The Tigers reached deals with McKinstry, Ibáñez? Thank God! I can sleep soundly tonight. Now I know what Steve Martin’s character in The Jerk felt when he looked in the phonebook and realized his name was in print. We’re going places!

So I guess Skubal winning the Cy Young isn’t a big deal to much of anyone. This is a tough audience. So, where do we meet to throw snowballs at children? 😉

Well, this certainly puts a hex on it.

I just got back from a walk with my friend. Is anything good happening?

I looked it up and we don’t know who won the Cy Young until November 20.

The Jersey swap at the end of the game was pretty cool.

It turns out that’s what it was. A man was holding a woman hostage with a knife to her throat the entire time. For something like 90 minutes, I can’t imagine how awful that was for her. Finally, he released her then I guess he bolted from the door with the knife, committing suicide by cop, and they obliged and he died at the hospital. but I’m glad the Lions won. It’s salvages the day.

Holy heck, I just watched both of those field goals on the ESPN app and they were close close close wow wow.

I never felt in danger. I’m sorry to say there was an almost lewd carnivalesque thing going on with we spectators. Gallows humor, sort of thing. People were relieved when they heard the five shots and saw the ambulance gurney being moved immediately after they were fired. I’m not being critical. I felt the same way. I was tired of the standoff. I’m not proud of it though. We human beings have a dark streak in us.

I’m sorry to hear that; it works on my iPhone, but my moderator privileges may give me an edge. I don’t know.

Last reports are he was still alive. I don’t know how anyone could survive five shots from an A.R. 15. Several officers had them, but I don’t know for sure if the officer who fired the shots had one since he was out of my view. But I was no more than 30 yards away.

Thank God. I needed this tonight.

Just refresh your browser.

I showed up at the last possible moment today. Saw we were behind most of the game on the ESPN app on my phone and checked back in with four seconds left and saw the result. Wow. Truly breathtaking on what has been for me a pretty crappy day. Too much drama today as well as this week. 25 police cars and dozens of police descended on my apartment complex today and after 90 min. and a final speaker phoneplea from officers there were five crisp shots like a hammer pounding on fresh pine wood then out came a bearded, barefoot man on a stretcher with CPR being applied. There was a screaming from a woman just before all the police cars arrived. I think she’s OK. In the last several hours since the shooting, there has been very little news about it locally.

Oh my God. Unbelievable. Drinks are on me.

So is it OK to think that Liranzo and Briceno have a future in the major leagues? Perhaps even a big future? Or am I supposed to be unimpressed because I’m Fritz the Cat and know everything and have been everywhere and done everything and know out of the gate that no good could ever come from this? I need something to be happy about.

FROM TOM SANTOS ON X- So when Trump fires all non-partisan career professionals in government, replaces them with radical loyalists within every nook and cranny of the US government, and adds radical judges everywhere. And every one of you that voted for him finally wake up from your ****ed up fantasy just like the folks that woke up after 4 years of the last **** show, only to realize it’s much much worse, and much more permanent, this time. When the cancer you caused has infected every bit of the American system and it can’t be unwound for a lifetime. What then? Do you beg this country for forgiveness for choosing fascism because you were conned into believing your eggs are too expensive because of Joe Biden? You just put Steve Bannon in charge of American policy. You just put Michael Flynn in charge of our military. You just put Alex Jones in charge of media and propaganda. You just put Stephen Miller in charge of immigration policy. You just put bat**** crazy RFK Jr. in charge of health policy. You just killed free public education and privatized schools, which you will have to pay for. You just sealed the deal on a national abortion ban, because you’re demented if you think it’s not coming. You just radicalized the Supreme Court for a generation. You just made women less safe and less free. You just made this country an oligarchy with the billionaires quite literally in charge now. You just put in office the one person that believes a president is a king, with the ****ing Supreme Court ruling to prove it in his back pocket! You just ushered in Fascism. Because your cereal costs more. Congratulations.
