Holy f***, does Bowden work for the Dodgers now? No way. If you have to pray that the 32-year-old top guy in the return is healthy in exchange for your two-time-defending Cy-Young-winning generational superstar pitcher, that's a bad trade.

I don't think you can make the case for Riley Greene as a superstar. He has barely been a 2-win player for three of his four seasons, and that includes this past season during which he played 157 games. I'm not even sure we can conclusively regard him as a star, since you don't dread it when a star is coming to the plate for fear he will strike out yet again. The only superstar we have on this team is Tarik Skubal, full stop. And unless Scott Harris is secretly planning on walking out of the Tigers' front office double-flipping it off as he leaves for a last time sometime before Opening Day, Skubal ain't getting traded.

I'm 5'10". You don't scare me. I run fast! 😃

To your implication, he can't pardon her until the Epstein threat is way into the rear-view mirror, probably at the end of his regime, is there ever is an end.

Well, of course it can't express how sorry it is! By definition, it can't express sorrow!

The cheering for the end of democracy is what made this post for me.

The source did suck.

The eventual best part isn't that they are withdrawing vaccination recommendations and leaving it up to personal choice, pr parent's prerogative. The best part will be when they outlaw vaccinations in the United States entirely, and criminalize people who obtain vaccinations in other countries.

I don't know, pardoning Ghislaine could be a bad look for Trump. I know we all assume he's bulletproof, but as we have seen, not even Hitler was that.

This is kind of fun.

I was about to post this in Map Pron, but I felt this is more reflective of this thread. This map shows how various countries around the world voted on the UN Resolution UNGA80 Against The Use Of Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment, which occurred on November 20. Not for nothing, and I know it's really hard to see here, is Israel is also colored bright red. Obviously, I think this reflects very poorly on us at the very least, and more likely is very telling about the intentions of the Trump regime. Maybe one or two guys can come in here and tell us why this vote doesn't suggest that at all.

The music people here, like @Biff Mayhem, will like this one. I myself got a little hung up on the way "apprehension" is used, which reads weird. At first I was thinking they probably meant "comprehension" ... but, you know, in a certain context, "apprehension" works, too.

Interesting that the Mexican diaspora has such a presence all the up to the east coast and way up into New England. Cook County is mostly Mexican, but my neighborhood is a relative Puerto Rican enclave.

I didn't know why until I looked. Probably a couple or three regulars here would know without looking.

I have actually wondered this exact thing.

We got company.

That's what Jocelyn gets for not just staying home and pumping out the babies, which, looking at her, I'd bet a lot of those red hats would have liked to have been the ones.

As I look at this, it occurs to me that the richest areas of most of the countries is this map is gravitating towards Switzerland.

It's hard not to. They make the thing seem so darned human. Mr. Conspiracy Theorist asks, is that part of an overarching strategy to lead us to be disarmed by its politeness and to bring our guard down so they can implement whatever their nefarious purposes are against us? I guess we'll all find out after we are disarmed by its politeness and we let our guard down. 😏

Stay away from my wife, pal! 😂

It’s fair if you want to call out the left, but if you want to be talked seriously around here, you should consider using sources less impeachable than Charlie LeDuff making circumstantial claims writing for whatever the **** Michigan Enjoyer is. I’ll give you a good example of what a less impeachable source looks like: Former state Democratic lawmaker Christopher Ziogas indicted Friday on federal corruption charges for allegedly pressuring state employees to cancel 2020 audit These are Democrats who had actual charges levied against them within a Democratic state, and which were specified with details of actual charges by a news source which has a demonstrably high degree of factual reporting. It’s OK if you want to hammer Democrats for malfeasance and even to equivocate them with Trumpublicans. Just remember that your efforts will be better received with better sourcing. IOW, if you’re gonna get into the business, you gotta deliver the goods.

Would we be considered such an up and coming team after letting Skubal go? I would bet other guys playing in the league would conclude we would not be. They also probably remember how this team purposely tanked just a few years ago. And I could also see where a player, a human being with opinions who has agency outside of his agent’s whims, would be willing to steer himself clear of a team that refused to commit to Skubal.
