Too much funds diverted to legal bills. HAH!!!

For the first 5 innings he scattered 4 baserunners with no runs and I think 3 K's. 4 (total) singles and walks in the 6th inning did him in.

Freep article I read this morning said Meadows lost the ball which is why he stopped. I would love if he could pick back up 2B so he could be OF/2B like Vierling is OF/3B. But I keep reading that he had the throwing YIPS at 2B so he's not going back there. Has anyone ever gotten over a case of the "yips" and gone back to their position after the recovery...?

"Coach Walz versus Couch Weirdo". Has a beautiful ring to it...

Well... That's not really rope-a-dope either... Short on weapons = slowly losing ground... Have weapons = Turn the tables. It's a simple problem of adequate supplies, I would think...

Well they made an incursion into Russia-proper (see above) so it seems a little more explicit than rope-a-dope... I'm just expecting more details...

Anticipay-yay-shun...

If Israeli Intelligence forecasted Sinwar taking over for an eliminated Haniyah, major sharp prediction. Israel will literally be able to do what they want in Gaza. Sinwar is unacceptable to most of the rest of the world. I'm not saying Netanyahu is... just that Israel made a major move that worked perfectly in their favor. WTF is Hamas thinking?

I think neither one of us used /s so it may have gone over both our heads... No need for any chilling out as I was just picking on a specific word in the definition... and PS: I'm ALWAYS throwing in all-caps in here and there not necessarily as "excitable" but more along the lines of: "here's the key emphasis". (See what I did there... 😉) I'm presenting nothing as a fact... the correct term would be "conjecture." We'll see if my "conjecture" about the Tigers 2025 season is more accurate than your "conjecture" about the state of my delusions... 😁

MAGAt infestation.

Do you have evidence that anything I've said is untrue? Remember: I'm talking about the future, not historicals ("in the books..."). Because if you don't have EVIDENCE, you are incorrect.

Is there also a "Scream" emoji...? Does that exist...? Another one to add to the pile...

Not looking forward to this but, after the trade deadline, it appears we are "once more into the breach". Another top 10 draft pick for the Tigers next year (we are currently in the #8 spot). I'll update as we get closer towards the end of the season... and then there's also the lottery... I'm calling this "Last Chance" because I fully expect the Tigers to be in the Playoffs next year... or DAMN NEAR to making the playoffs. IN is better than "near miss" though, obviously... I'd like next year to be our last chance Top 10 pick for a "long, long, long time"... We shall see.

I don't know whether to laugh at this, cry, or just be really, really sad. I can't decide which emoji to use...

Trump is gonna lose badly... Writing's on the wall... So it's time for all the sycophantic rat's to break or jump ship...

It's benefiting from MASSIVE popularity for Hugh Jackman as Wolverine and Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool. Reynolds/ Deadpool in particular is the most wise-ass, wise-cracking, off-the-cuff, one-liner smack talking character as I've ever seen. He talks to the audience incessantly, "breaking the 4th wall", which makes everyone feel like they're IN on the jokes... The Deadpool movies are completely INSANE!!! I haven't laughed so much since Robin Williams heyday... The competition doesn't stand a chance... even if there were any...

Actually, it's as simple as: "Our Beloved Dear Leader Trump opened his mouth and... said something or other..." CLAP!!!

That's funny!

2 innings last night is my guess. I thought the exact same and why even put in Miller at 2-0 when it shoulda been Foley... Until I looked at last night's box score (only 23 pitches though) so that's my guess. Still shoulda gone to Foley in the 9th with a 2-0 lead... IMO.

PS: That would be called a "calculated risk."

Get him on the phone. "We fix pitchers..." Sign him for the remainder of 2024 (AAA, for our pitching doctors to fix him up...), all of 2025 (MLB money, with tons of bonuses for MLB appearances, innings, etc...), with a team option for 2026 (same).

... A certain segment of America that has their hearts filled with hatred.

Yes. I want better in 2025.

Or maybe he DID do a "tweak" or "adjustment" in which he's getting his bat into the zone quicker... Whether that's shortening his time to load or his batting stroke to get into the zone faster... That IS a positive... In a couple of different ways... Need to see MORE.

On Trump and Vance: "Two DEUCHEBAGS sitting in a tree, ..."
