1984Echoes

Frickin' Hypocrite of the Year Award goes to Manchin. PS: Find a few more Dem Senators and make him irrelevant. That's the answer...

Lots and lots of Love for that one...!

Nice 7 innings by Manning... Are we allowed to keep him? Or do we have to give him back to the IL? I really am tired of that route and would prefer to be able to keep "nice things" instead of the other...

No jinx. Nice game: 6 shutout inn's on 2 hits 1BB and 6 K's. On offense... not much interesting on Offense aside from Parker going 1 for 3 with a double and a SF.

Opposing pitchers will quickly hunt for weaknesses or... the "book" on him... He'll have to make adjustments back or become Boesch 2.0 or Chris Shelton 2.0. That... will be the test to pass to see if he's real...

Future looks BRIGHT!!!

I want to see gladiators. Real gladiators. Proud Boys versus Boogaloo Boys versus Oath Keepers versus 3 Percenters in a fight to the death. Last man left alive gets an all expenses paid 3-year Exile to Siberia where they can learn all about Fascist Dictatorships.

1930's? And it's again appropriate. Today. August 18th, 2022.

Hah! Sweet! Challenge those guys...!

Dingler finished 1 for 2 the 1st game with the HR, a BB, and a K. Olson pitched today: 6 inn's, 4 hits, 0 BB's, 8 K's and 1 run. Really nice start for him...

This is probably right where Pragmatic Republicanism would rise again instead of the current F.U. Republicans. I'm not certain where else that could occur? Alaska?

Been saying this from the get-go. In order for the Republican Party to save itself from Trumpism... it will need to destroy itself first. And then try to pick up the pieces afterwards... Can they be a phoenix...? Dunno... But if they value Country, and Democracy, over their Fascist Party as now constituted... It's the only way.

They need to also continue to hit Russia on Russian territory... like this. Lots and lots of sabotage... Crimea taking hits is awesome.... But also, take out bridges, railways, ammo and fuel depots on Russian territory... Both give incentive for Putin to back the fuck off.

Also: Why is any Secret Serviceperson, who either had knowledge, or is currently associated with Trump (because he weeded out guys that would not be loyal to him and searched and found SS agents who would in specifically be loyal to him, not the US Constitution), still currently employed? They should all be fired as part of the Seditious Coup attempt against the United States of America. Or am I missing something?

Gotta be it for Norris... Nice gutting out 5 inn's with only 1 run. 3 hit batters... yeesh.

M-Live says Eduardo is scheduled to make Sunday's start against Ohtani... That might M-Liven up this place too...? Maybe?

Nope. Absolutely not. I don't know why you guys would think that. Never gonna happen. What Dark Liz could do... is run as an Independent. Blow up the whole election. Might be too late for her though...

NOPE. YEP. Schoop and Candy are the "stopgaps". Not Andrus. They can be traded next deadline for a "bag of balls", or if they recover some value then, maybe more than just a "bob"... And then Kreidler, Clemens and Wenceel Perez become the stopgaps. Or maybe one of them sticks as a starter if they perform well enough. We'll see. Book it.

Center Right - Very lonely place right now. Center Left - Quite a bit easier for me to exist here as being a Centrist Democrat (Independent... but almost always caucus with the Center Dem's...) fits me and the current political arena nicely. So long as Dems are elected (progressives or centrists... I don't care) and Republicans are repudiated, at least until MAGA is forced into an alternative party... works for me.

Good Soto.

But got Kwan out anyways... (or rather, instead...) Win.

I'd be ok with an Intentional on Kwan... i don't want a bat-control guy here, and would rather face Rosario with a play at 2B or 1B or other ways of getting the dude out...

Or he was slow, and/ or underwhelming, in the implementation...

Aside from Crouch's nice game... Dylan Smith got the start for WM and 5 inn's, 1 ER on 5 hits and 0 BB's, and 6 K's...

Not much interesting at Erie though: Parker hit another HR. Otherwise, Erie only got a total of 2 hits on the night. Chance Kirby (if anyone follows) with a nice game: 6 shutout inn's and 6 K's.
