We walked away from the game when the delay started, came back and my wife turned the game on. I scrolled ahead to the bottom of the ninth, to get the final score and see how bad the damage was. That was when I got a text from my son "Just need "Glayber and McGonigle to get on and a Kerry Bonds return". Followed by Greene!!! What a game. I messaged him we were playing catch up. Followed by WOW!!. My notifications let me in on what was happening. I kept quiet to allow allow the spouse to enjoy the ending. It was fun

Where did he have dinner last night, breakfast this morning? Seriously I have a medication that causes issues, like Bert, never in front of an audience.

Trump's DOJ is like five year old who asks for a cookie after being turned down 5 times. The response from the courts should be "HELL NO!!!" "go to your room

Perez makes up for the OF FUBAR 2-1 Tigers

Unfortunately on our recent cruise, the day around Halifax, NS didn't leave us with enough time to visit the Maritime Museum there. Halifax was the closest city to where the ship hit the iceberg and was the main recovery city. 150 souls were buried in Halifax,

Western Pa kid here. Heard a number of slurs against Hungarians as well in the 50s and 60s. Especially from Irish and Italian relatives

My latest attempt at GM. Brad probably gets to keep his job

I remember a game at Comerica against the Cubs, probably in 2001 when the flagpole was still in play in CF. Sammy Sosa hit a bomb to CF, did his home run hop then watched ball get caught by the centerfielder. It was probably the only highlight of that series.

In September 1 1971, the Pittsburgh Pirates fielded a team of 9 Afro American, Latin players. Two regulars were injured (Richie Hebner and Gene Alley) My grandfather started calling the team the "Gray's" after the historic Negro League Team https://www.mlb.com/history/negro-leagues/teams/homestead-grays

Took a nap this afternoon. Had a dream that DJT was on his deathbed, the last face he saw was that of a nurse who immigrated from Somalia.

Dingler and McGonigle, heart and soul of this team so far. Give honorable mention to McKinstry

”That Children and Apprentices were disobedient—that schools and Colledges were grown turbulent—that Indians slighted their Guardians and Negroes grew insolent to their Masters. ”But your Letter was the first Intimation that another Tribe more numerous and powerfull than all the rest were grown discontented. Depend upon it, We know better than to repeal our Masculine systems. Altho they are in full Force, you know they are little more than Theory. ”We dare not exert our Power in its full Latitude….In Practice you know We are the subjects. We have only the Name of Masters, and rather than give up this, which would compleatly subject Us to the Despotism of the Peticoat, I hope General Washington, and all our brave Heroes would fight.”

Trump was in Charlottesville last weekend and visited the winery that bears his name. Question, did he create a new varietal and what is it called. I'm assuming it would be white with a very watery taste

I’m not a poker player but Trump is playing on full tilt.

There were rumors at the time Pujols spent most of his day in his office watching the Weather Channel, not sure if they were correct or not

Was the Pujols move Smith's or was that Dombrowski? I seem to remember the Tigers wanted Felipe Alou to be manager, but he didn't want the job. He became Louis Pujols bench coach.

My second hand Phil Gardner story. Part of my wife's job when we moved to Detroit was to manage the Tigers radio network. WXYT had won the contract after several years at WJR. My wife had a get aquatinted meeting with Phil and his wife shortly before the season started. She mentioned how I was a Pirate fan growing up and that our son was born approximately 9 months after the 1979 World Series. The kicker, he's our only child. His wife laughed, he turned an interesting shade of pink.

Shall we just start referring to you as The Dude. That was my son's nickname in college
