  1. Wow, everything’s downloading a lot quicker than usual.
  2. Harris is used to being the smartest guy in the room. And I don’t doubt that that’s true, but that can come back to bite you. The way these guys who performed great earlier in the year have fallen off is not Harris‘s fault. I don’t know if it’s the coaching staff’s fault either. Players constantly have to make adjustments. Players also have to be coachable. Riley is just plain stubborn, even clueless. The way he deals with interviews is at times unprofessional. Maybe I’m expecting too much from him. He’s just an athlete. He’s not a Rhodes Scholar.
  3. This is devastating.
  4. I don’t want Perez to walk that sets Tork up for the cheap double play
  5. Please, please please
  6. Please don’t do something stupid like try to get Malloy to steal third.
  7. If Riley merely made contact for a hit, we could get two more runs. He doesn’t need to golf a grand slam.
  8. The Red Sox are changing pitchers so quickly you’d think they actually wanted to win this game.
  9. Bases loaded one out in the First don’t suck Riley
  10. I saw it at the theater when it came out and it was OK but now that it’s on HBO Max, I can’t say I’m motivated to watch it a second time which was not the case with James Gunn’s original Guardians.
  11. From the World of John Wick: Ballerina was just released by STARZ, I wasn’t motivated to see it at the theater, but it’s worth watching. It’s as good as something derivative by the people who made the original John Wick can be, but it’s sort of repetitious. And it’s not lacking because “a girl“ is the lead, not at all. It’s just so obviously derivative that it can’t have as much punch as the original source material. But if you have STARZ, it’s worth two hours.
  12. To prepare for this game I’m watching From the World of John Wick: Ballerina that just became available on STARZ. I didn’t realize Norman Reedus was in it. Building up a head of steam for this game.
  13. Just practicing at being hopeful for a change. I get tired of being a Debbie Downer.
  14. Happy migration day!
  15. From Wikipedia: The biorhythm theory is the pseudoscientific idea that peoples' daily lives are significantly affected by rhythmic cycles with periods of exactly 23, 28 and 33 days,[2][3][4] typically a 23-day physical cycle, a 28-day emotional cycle, and a 33-day intellectual cycle. The idea was developed by German otolaryngologist Wilhelm Fliess in the late 19th century, and was popularized in the United States in the late 1970s. The proposal has been independently tested and, consistently, no validity for it has been found.
  16. I had forgotten that bio rhythms were even a thing.
  17. I’m glad they won, but the squandered opportunities they used to cash in on were really irksome in this game. Remembering how to score runs would be really good. Of course, run prevention as well. Glad Vest came through.
  18. Mize on Friday, TBD on Saturday, Scoob on Sunday. Right now Casey has a 14–6 win/loss record. In the 1960s when I was growing up, a 15–6 win/loss record on the back of a baseball card looked damn good. I hope he wins his 15th game. In reality, I’d be happy if the Tigers just won full stop, but 15–6 has a symmetry to it that I find nostalgically pleasing.
  19. Damn straight! We’re riding your coattails to the bitter end.
  20. I’m glad we won, seriously glad we won, but I’m not taking much pleasure in it. That bases loaded golf swing strike out of Riley Greene’s is still pissing me off.
