Shades of Deivi Cruz

Thank goodness for free Sunday Ticket Max. Those four games all stink.

If that's what you think I said, then that's on you. All I said was, if you felt personally attacked by the speech last night, then you are probably a hard core MAGA already. I didn't say you had to like it or agree with it. If you did feel personally offended by the speech, well then I'm sorry that you are a MAGA that should fuck right off.

If your opinion is that the 2020 Presidential election was stolen and don't think J6 was a big deal, then yes, please, fuck right off.

Anyone that is clutching their pearls about that speech last night needs to take a hard look in the mirror. He was clearly talking only about the hard core MAGA crowd. If someone feels threatened by that, then they can go f@&k themselves (to borrow a phrase from the Red Hats).

Yeah, for every Maverick there are way more Coming 2 America's. I have virtually no hope for Beverly Hills Cop 4, especially since it will be direct to streaming.

Disagree. Sat behind a family with three older boys (early 20s) at a Pirates-Brewers game. The oldest had done some stupid parlay, where he needed Brewers to win, Adames to homer and something else. The homer and the "something else" happened pretty early, so all he needed was for the Brewers to hang on in a game they were already winning 3-0. Bottom of six comes and Pirates get two guys on. Youngest brother says "I don't know man, I feel a Oneil Cruz homer here..." Two pitches later, POW. Three run homer for Cruz. LOL! Older brother starts to lose his mind, while the youngest howls with laughter. Pirates scored two more runs and went on to win 5-3. It provided boundless entertainment for me, as well as a life lesson in sports gambling for my 17 year old. 🤣

Stupid birkenstock's

Did anyone else watch The Rehearsal on HBO? That show seriously messed with my head. So bizarre, and somehow fascinating…

I can admit that this used to be me. Now I get angry at those people that are doing nothing but artificially moving the merge point way back from where it should be. I've done a lot of roads trips over the last month, so I can't remember where I saw it, but they actually had signs telling people that a lane closure was coming but NOT to merge yet. Then at the last 1000 feet or so, there was a "zipper now" sign. There wasn't much traffic at the time, so I can't really say if the signage really helped at all, but I thought it was a great idea.

OK, so the courtroom stuff was not an effort to help Kim, but just to come clean like she did. That makes more sense. https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-features/better-call-saul-series-finale-explained-creator-interview-1394766/

I also loved it, however I don't really understand the coming clean part. At first I thought it was to help Kim, after he was told the widow could come after her. I don't really see how his coming clean helps that situation though.

No real update to provide. I'm like the lessons well enough, but I'm not doing anything exciting. Just learning the strings and chords. July was a bit of a setback. I had COVID and then was travelling once I recovered. Not much practice time or lessons, so picking it back up after that I had some catching up to do.

This version is in regular rotation in my workout mix and has been for years. LOL!

I finally tested negative yesterday, then my wife this morning. Happy to not have to worry about possibly infecting others anymore. Last thing we wanted to do was pass it on to one of the kids (or anyone else) at the very tail end of our “process”.

11 days later and I'm still testing positive. So annoying. I actually only had symptoms for 3-4 days and just one of those felt truly terrible. Avoiding family and activities is getting tricky (and feeling increasingly unnecessary). Hard to know what to do coming out of it.

My string of 2+ years successfully avoiding this came to an end this morning. Fortunately I have a nice basement to barricade myself in. Unfortunately we were supposed to leave for a week at the lake on Friday.

Agreed. A certain quote from the immortal Winston Wolfe in Pulp Fiction comes to mind.

I'll certainly give them a shot, but I'm not overly optimistic about any of the GoT spinoffs. Hope I'm wrong though.

I did get a good chuckle during the broadcast when Jack said "Hey, thanks to those of you who are still watching". I think they cut his mic though before he could add "this shitshow of a team". As others have said, they desperately need a shakeup. They problem is though that for most positions they don't have any viable prospects to replace people with (except Greene). As for trades, guys hitting under .200 with no power don't have a lot of value to contending organizations. Maybe a couple of our bullpen arms could be of interest, but we aren't getting high quality prospects in return for any of our flotsam.

Sounds like he wants to be brought in to the hearings... Come on down Donnie!

So now he's an unarmed man...

Boo on the return of Robbie Grossman. I'm going to the game and was really hoping to see Riley Greene.
