  1. Are the City Connects done?
  2. I like navy on the road. Hate anything other than the home whites at home. But if merch sales are what is going to help pay for this roster, small price to pay...
  3. Best of luck.
  4. Sodium = preservation = food lasting longer = cheaper production. I can cook better than 99% of restaurants, so the way I see it the only benefit to eating out is convenience.
  5. I was wondering the same thing.
  6. I forgot from our HoF project a while back how weak 3B was historically for the Tigers. A lot of long running average 3B in the club's history, particularly during dynasty eras (Wert, Brookens, Inge). Both WAR systems are unanimous that Fryman is the tops in club history. Kell is one of the most undeserving HOFers (as a player) and wasn't with the Tigers that long. It is scary how close Shane Halter and Zach McKinstry are to the top 10.
  7. Wanted to add one more thing that is a bit puzzling and points to genetics. I am 5'9, low 150's, and have been 80th-90th percentile when it comes to diet and exercise routine my whole adult life... The easy button for this is to lose weight, but when I say I try to lose, it's on the order of 5-10 lbs (to get from high 150's to 150). Even before the sugar popped as elevated, I would forgo "Sunday Funday" to eat a healthy meal, etc. It's very tough to try to fight back against it while being social. Most dinner parties/pot lucks are a no. Dating, in addition to some of the social flaws you all see from me on here, is tough when I need to be active most nights, and sitting and eating bar food is a no.
  8. Don't most US born Olympians that represent other countries do so because it's their path to qualifying? It isn't some slap in the face to the country, but NOC's are just limited in how many they can send.
  9. Glad you get to experience it. If you are there long enough, just know minor league games on the back fields are free.
  10. What does the House have to do with SCOTUS?
  11. And much better when people stop quoting him.
  12. Having dealt with a loved one with dementia the last few years, stop quoting that guy's posts if he is going to say crap like that.
  13. It tracks that trans people, who are going to be more likely to have mental illness just given the nature of gender dysphoria, may be more likely to perpetrate that kind of thing. Now, you can either make their lives easier to alleviate the mental illness, or you can ostracize and marginalize them and make their issues spiral.
  14. Jefferson, Jackson, and William Henry Harrison.
  15. Mine had auto walk for women if the guy in front was walked. I would always ask to be put in front of the weakest woman in the roster and would be super patient, almost trying to walk.
  16. I had a situation in mine where we had something like 4 HS shortstops in their mid 20's. I was the captain and had to be extra vigilant about making sure we had a capable 1B after one of their throws busted the face of somebody we had stashed at 1B. That one got moved to the outfield.
  17. True. I could see that being not allowed in secure areas...
  18. I do the finger pricks in the morning to get the fasting number. Because I was only at 6.5 last year when diagnosed, there's not much need to get Time in Range data yet, but will certainly bring that up with my doctor.
  19. 40, diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes last year. I eat well most of the time, try to work out at least five days a week. Running/biking/2x2 beach volleyball for cardio. I've really upped my weight lifting in recent months after reading more and more that it is more beneficial than cardio on the body's glucose levels. I saw an author describe the only benefit of yoga is you get better at yoga, and it rang true to me, at least from a physical standpoint. I don't waste my time with it. Trying to reverse that diabetes diagnosis, and think I can do it without meds. I have certain tiers of dietary restrictions based on weight and morning fasting glucose. Due to some complications (residual effect from the holiday season, getting lax on the restrictions, the hospice/funeral trips for my mom) much of January, I reinacted them and have not had alcohol, red meat, between meal snacks, nor have I eaten out in February. I hit the seven days in a row below weight and glucose target this morning to life some of those restrictions, but like how I feel so am going to keep that going for a bit. No sugar free substitutes or anything like that, just portion control and moderation with stricter controls in place when I feel things spiraling.
  20. Last Week Tonight called Noem "That dog killer with a bad filler" Not sure if that's one that's been floating around.
  21. I do know that Julie Brown, who probably knows more than any reporter about this issue, thinks he was murdered.
  22. Last one for a bit, working down the defensive spectrum... Second Baseman First Year Last Year PAWS Charlie Gehringer 1924 1942 113.8 Lou Whitaker 1977 1995 94.5 D ick McAuliffe 1960 1973 56.9 Ian Kinsler 2014 2017 33.9 Placido Polanco 2005 2009 33.4 Damion Easley 1996 2002 30.7 Frank Bolling 1954 1960 22.5 Jim Delahanty 1909 1912 15.1 Jerry Priddy 1950 1953 13.8 Eddie Mayo 1944 1948 13.6 Keith at 6.1, but will likely move to another position plurality before long. Torres at 5.5.
  23. Ugh, RFK on 60 minutes tonight spewing MAHA crap.
  24. @Tiger337 I was just able to do some scraping from BR...
