  1. If DeJesus didn't throw the 3rd out away after having him picked off... it's a different game. At that point AJ just said "Screw it...." We left in that inning. My younger son was with me and he typically goes to bed at 8 so he was already ready.
  2. The #5 hitter is the same as the #4 hitter but the better one bats 4th. And the #9 hitter is the 'secondary' leadoff hitter. The same kind of player as the leadoff guy but maybe a 2nd year player or some other trait that knocks him down a notch. He's gotta "set the table" once the game gets into the middle innings. The 8 hitter is the worst guy... your Gerald Laird or Adam Everett's of the world.
  3. and also a political stunt. "oppose this? Ok. You hate christians and religion. Let's write the ad copy out of that"
  4. Their purpose isn’t teaching or expression. It’s just to bully.
  5. According to my girl Stephanie the system is breaking up and moving southwest so if Detroit gets anything it won’t be a big deal or last long. Unless she was talking just to me?
  6. It goes back to when they played Kokomo the day Brian Wilson died.
  7. The Brewers are 12-9 and in last place.
  8. half of htem had a pack of smokes on them and nobody cared
  9. Rob Deer was better than conventional wisdom portrays him.
  10. The general public waves start at 10 and continue 11:21.
  11. FWIW, I typically leave the regent races blank on my ballot as I don't know them and I don't really care.
  12. Maklid beat out Acker, who had his own issues to deal with....
  13. Its not about interference, it's the opposite. It's so fans can experience both. The idea is fans can leave the game and about a mile away to see people finish.
  14. I picked up a couple of nosebleeds for my me and my son tonight. Only game this round I could probably make.
  15. McGonigle’s first ML game was in San Diego in front of 45,000 fans. He had 4 hits.
  16. I’m glad they didn’t have the attitude for Kevin McGonigle.
  17. Where the game is broadcast is irrelevant to their playing. The only consideration I’d give on a delay would be his travel situation
  18. saw a lot of references to the end of the show on how important it was to see two men talk and deal with mental health and trauma.
  19. They won 6 in a row… losses happen.
  20. I used to work at a credit union on Chicago road in 1998/1999. Passed by there every day. Used to joke with our operations/maintenance guy about going there for lunch. We never did. Went to Teddys instead. A normal bar
  21. Right. There are very little secrets in baseball. Don’t let nostalgia force you to overpay. These aren’t special players.
  22. dang.... yeah he was indeed a very solid player.
  23. It's way beyond my reach but i have lots of friends who have. One year I was tracking 5 people. It's a bitch to qualify for, even if you meet one of the qualifying times, it always changes. They let a lot of people in who raise money for charity. My wife wanted to do 5 marathons before she turned 50 but covid got in the way, if she plans to do another it will be NY or Chicago.
  24. Finish watching Saul then. That’s all I will say. I liked BCS better and when I put on the AMC stories channel on Amazon prime I watch that. If it’s breaking bad I don’t tune in unless it’s an early episode.
