  1. Albert Brooks on Curb is just perfect.
  2. My hunch is the capital police are erring on the side of "caused by the riots" in some subtle legal way to take care of his family
  3. Definitely some gray area. The suicides I chalk up, though. Particularly if the injuries sustained were head related.
  4. The Rule 5 Draft is usually at like 10 AM on a Thursday.
  5. This I didn't know: https://www.npr.org/2021/04/19/988876722/capitol-police-officer-brian-sicknick-died-of-natural-causes-medical-examiner-ru
  6. The "there was only one death" line was the coup de Gras. We have a full fledged troll on our hands folks!
  7. He followed protocol. https://www.npr.org/2021/08/23/1030354113/capitol-police-officer-ashli-babbitt-riot
  8. Yeah, interesting that more "legit" outlets haven't run with this yet.
  9. A violent mob was breaching a secure area where the vice president was. That cop is a hero. The victim deserved it.
  10. Occam's razor
  11. I can't find anything on that, but it is scheduled after the expiration of the Basic Agreement. The Winter Meetings are put on by MILB, though, and now that MILB is effectively no more after the hostile takeover by MLB, it's possible that may have something to do with a potential cancellation. However, since minor leagues would still plow forward after the CBA, the job fair portion would still be a of benefit to fill the roles needed.
  12. Guy who was a top prospect, struggled in the bigs but has always performed in the minors. Was injured all year this year and didn't play much last year. About to hit minor league free agency after being outrighted by the Angels. Worth a shot on a minor league flier: Franklin Barreto.
  13. This may be because he is low priority roster filler.
  14. I'm fortunate to be in a spot where I can do this and plan for it, but I did something like this last time with one extra caveat. I had saved the cash. This gave me incredible leverage at the dealership. In addition to making good financial sense (cars depreciate, so loans are bad), it allows for a better deal.
  15. Also, the strike zone is 3D. So assuming that is the front of the plate, a curveball is going to have vertical break and spend a lot of time in the strike zone. The umpire does and should have some leeway on balls that don't spend all the time over the plate in or out of the zone. Graphics like above are misleading.
  16. The games are too long. I was ready for bed after the early game.
  17. Okay, you saw that ad too?
  18. He also had lymphoma, which means vaccines may not work that well.
  19. Best thing to do is report that tweet and anybody who amplifies it. Let twitter take it down and apply any strikes it needs to he and Gaetz et. al. The quote tweeters are just giving it fuel.
  20. Thickness of a blend. You get the maximum and miss the valley.
  21. He recently said on his podcast those are two guys from his astros days he is still good friends with and talks to regularly.
  22. What rule in the rulebook says that is not a swing?
