Will the President also be subject to drug testing?

McKinstry is OK but he plays too much. I was really hoping for Bregman and I believe they made a very serious bid to get him. They have a good shot at the division title this year and next. When I look at their rotation and see Torkelson perhaps finally breaking out, I think about how good they'd be with Bregman and a healthy Meadows.

I don't really understand the no taxes on tips and no taxes on overtime. What's so special about those groups? On the other hand, people in those groups typically don't make a lot of money, so I don't begrudge them their break. In theory, I do agree with no taxes on social security since they have paid into it all their lives and you can't expect the elderly to work forever. The problem is I fear they'll use the tax cuts as an excuse to cut the base and they will end up gaining nothing from the tax cut.

What is everybody protesting now? There is much **** going on, it's hard to choose. The anti-Musk thing seems to be working as GOP kind of wants him out of there.

How about not have a pre-planned celebration? Just be sponaneous and real.

One week of defensive WAR is pretty sketchy. Ibanez and McKinstry are good bench players, but I don't want them getting too many at bats.

Somebody wrote a whole book about how he cheats at golf.

I believe he would have made the team had he shown that he was physical ready in the spring. That's not to say that he can't be both physicaly and manipulation ready in May. It would be hard for him to be worse than what they've been running out there at third so far.

The United States is the wealthiest, most powerful country in the world, so I have the same question. I am certainly not going to take the word of a lying sack of **** like Trump.

Politicians almost never impress me because they are almost all full of ****. I have heard her a couple of times and she impressed me.

I think there is a very real chance Greene beaks out into superstardom this year...if he stays healthy.

I don't know enough about any of this stuff to have an informed opinion, but I think the insinuation is that it was going to happen anyway because our financial system and economy are so delicate and artificial. But if the whole thing does collapse because of a trade war, there's really only one person I can blame. Edit: If the stock portion my retirement fund blows up, I will blame myself because I came close to pulling out all my money in January and putting it into a high yield savings (still over 4% at the moment).

Either because they don't know what it is or because they want to use it as a political talking point.

What is this guy even talking about? Nobody is becoming a slave to foreign powers. We've got the strongest most influential country in the world and assholes like him are trying to destroy it.

Should OF picked the Tigers! No position conflict at all.

That is my guess. I remember reading about him from the Dombrowski days. He was reasonably well versed in baseball analytics, but I didn't get the sense that he had the sophistication of the modern analysts.

Nobody was going to vote for him after that debate. That killed him. And I know Trump's debate performance vs Harris was even worse, but it doesn't matter with him.

I think every prior administration might fiddle with the numbers by maybe changing the definiions of employment or something. I actually expect this regime to just make stuff up. I have zero trust in them

yeah, I know it would never happen!

I'm not sure what that means. The way the league is set up, they have to play the Dodgers and have to play west coast games. They got some of that out of the way early and the good parts of their schedule are yet to come. .

Getting out before the pitch stealng scandal hits.😄

How about they play baseball all year? Three seasons of 80 games each. Not every city would have a team in all three seasons. Player stats would cover the entire year without league distinction and players would be individually rewarded at the end of the year. Each player can only play up to 162 games per year, so they won't get two burned out and stats will be comparable with past traditional seasons. Baseball all year round for baseball nuts and three sets of playoffs for playoff fans.

Except that he no longer has any competent, sane people around him.

Sure, but if you know he's going to do something and all the choices are bad, that's a different kind of uncertainty than hoping he does the right thing.

OK, I see what you mean. I don't disagree with that. In terms of investments and business interests which is what this thread is about, doing something and sticking with it (even if it's a bad choice) is probably better than the uncertainty and fear of multiple bad choices hanging over our heads. .
