Strong take. Moving on.

Until your good friend starts chopping off his fingers to spite you.

You do or do not believe in the great "man" or great person school of history?

Have you been lately? Dublin in particular is one of the more expensive cities in Europe. Not Switzerland expensive but still a bit spendy.

No glove would have helped the Royals 3B with Dingler's hit in the 8th.

Did you guys talk about McGonigle's massive payday already and are now talking racial slurs until they come back into common use?

Branch Rickey was no racist.

Particularly in a country that has a Confederate History month in the month those traitorous losers lost the civil war.

They should have an Andy Messersmith day? All the things you say are true. He is a reflection on the bigotry. But there still had to be that one guy who broke that barrier. Hank Aaron had to face death threats for breaking the Babe's record. Willie Horton had to try to mollify a mob in his uniform. America has and will suck regarding race relations. Plenty of evidence about. Be it woke virtue signaling or actual bravery in the face of ignorance...I'm giving him the nod.

I think I would be annoyed to have to work for any of these people. I once interned for a GOP rep and the guy was getting free labor from me but insisted I use his title when talking to him. While that seemed pretty innocuous to me at the time, it really bothered me when i saw how he treated others. Now Slotkin seems like she'd be a bit more difficult than others to work for, just a feeling. Daughter from a wealthy family and all that. That said, they are ham sandwich and I'm voting for that over any GOP person until Trumpism and MAGA is no more.

agree.

Dude deserves his day to be sure.

We have now beaten an American league team. I own a copy of the book above. It is not for sale.

This is insane...from his 1976 season.

I saw a 1977 Fydrich start in which he was very good. I can't recall the team he played although i think it was the blue jays.

But Matt Schlap is such a rock ribbed conservative. (sarcasm)

I don't anticipate it being close. Gas prices + war + Trump's general putzery + blasphemy + JD Vance + Mike Johnson = a 1994, 2006 or 2010 wave.

Welcome to the post-Putin truth reveal pre-game meeting.

One of the more giant of the giant assholes.

Which means Putin was funding CPAC.

He's that close to being president. He could order diet coke by pushing a button!

Disco Demolition was amazing! I was watching that night and George Kell and Al Kaline were beyond shocked and appalled. So good.

Oops...not a grand slam. Game 7 HR for Cubs.

The Rajai Davis one was so good. He hit another famous grand slam....
