Malloy again. Sweeney gets home!

Tigers did what they do when they are going well. Make the starter work in the 1st inning. Sucked not to cash in besides the HR.

Gleyber hits one out which gives us a 1 score lead.

heard tell of some weather in Detroit.

Re use of fishwife... I was not aware of some of these fishwife - Wiktionary, the free dictionary

Ran across this from administration fishwife nominally the WH Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt and thought it worth a comment. Inside the vicious rivalries tearing apart Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon - POLITICO So leaking to the RW media is cool.

Unroe had a heck of a day.

if we are going to take advice from RFK Jr about what constitutes a healthy lifestyle: what is the USDA recommended amount of heroin we should be giving our children each day?

its definitely a great opportunity for traders in Argentina and Brazil to buy low on US soybeans and resell those to the PRC.

Crooks do crooked things. Meanwhile at the gun show or on RW media they are depicted as virile avatars of white supremacy.

the "South Will Rise Again" crowd having a moment.

Trump Treasury Sec Bessent: China tariff fight will deescalate Does this matter if Peter Navarro still has Trump's ear?

Hard to imagine a more unlikely match between consumer and the Trump 2.0 administration as tech-savvy, environmentally-conscious Tesla owners of 2010-2024. Counter-culture and Hippies and the VW Bug come to mind. Hitler's car doesn't really scream out as the ideal vehicle for that demo. Perhaps if F-150/Chevy Silverado owners suddenly had to deal with the fact that their vehicles were associated with the Trans rights movement.

Not Steven Tyler?

So, he's still employed?

She's really losing her bearings

Its a social event with long pauses and breaks. Expect conversational style. Humor doesn't hurt. For my part I am enjoying Andy Dirks and Carlos Pena as the analyst. Dan Petry is fine but the younger guys are doing a good job.

The art reminder of the failure of Rick Rizz and Bob Rathbun in that article. Yikes. You can't be saccharine with the Detroit audience. This is a fan base that has a chip on its shoulder and expects some salt with the experience of watching sports. Dan Dickerson and Jim Price were actually very good at doing that salty self-appraisal. I don't know that any of the TV groups have been able to do that. I wonder if Benetti will or if he knows he's an employee of the team and needs to earn that capability.

Pete's digital intervention is ongoing. Only this time he's not going in a limo to rehab. This time his former aides are trying to get him to give up the most powerful agency in the most powerful country in the World (for now).

Not sure when the rehab assignment starts. It should be soon.

Plus their college team's colors are primer and rust.

I concur with the assessment. Tony Gilroy writing and the acting of half of the cast of Chernobyl make it sensational. Not for 8-year olds. "Mommy, why did that lady sleep with the guy she's only moderately interested in? Was it to keep him silent because she's secretly been communicating with the guy who played Boris Scherbina who she believes is a black market arms dealer but is really the hub of a secret rebellion network?" There are special monologues in the first series. There are two in one episode in particular. Its closer to Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy than anything that Disney has besides this in its Star Wars TV stuff.

I would both fret over the fragility of a SP at a huge pay number over the life of a contract and be annoyed we couldn't keep a homegrown talent if we lost him. Either way I'd rather we were closer to the 2012-2014 version of our payroll than the Tampa Bay Yankrays.

Cara Jackson: "Spotted on today's run: enormous banners on an overpass just outside DC announcing "INTERN JOHN, I'M PREGNANT" I have SO many questions." — Bluesky Interesting. Is this how you do this?

This is pretty black and white.
