You forgot the two weeks until Trump releases his tax returns.

How and why do "we" have control of the skies over Iran? When did Congress authorize military action against Iran?

Great article. (And I love the photo of Mr. Met getting an MRI.)
But am I right to conclude that the more stressful the game is, the better it is for my brain? If so, after more than half a century of watching the #Mets, it's no wonder I'm so smart! 😎

Very well said. I totally agree.

I think Congressman Raskin’s reference to “born here” is intended to push back against the Trump administration’s attempt to limit birthright citizenship. Not to exclude others who become citizens.

Yes, Kristi and her gang of thugs were there to “liberate” the people of Los Angeles from their duly elected leaders. And the people showed how thankful they were.

All to celebrate the Wannabe King’s birthday. Shameful.

That was my immediate reaction too. I’m glad someone with power and an audience is saying it.

Good. Keep us informed. And it will give me an opportunity to work on my rudimentary Dutch.

Those MLB blackouts really are annoying. Living in the DC area, I can't watch any games that the #Mets play against the Nationals or the Orioles. I guess the MLB gods think I should watch the local broadcasts. But why would I want to listen to the Nats booth or the Orioles booth?

Two weeks. Two weeks. Everything is always going to happen in two weeks.

I’ll vote for all the Mets on the ballot, but I especially want Lindor to win.

I hope they’ve gotten that winning out of their system before taking on the #Mets. #LGM

Hope you feel better soon. A nice #Mets win might help. #LGM

You make excellent arguments in this article, but I worry that the current U.S. administration is too short-sighted to recognize these advantages.

Yup, your math is spot on! #LGM

Yes, this was the first late West Coast game I've stayed up for in quite a while. It was definitely worth it! #LGM

The word “smarmy” was coined to describe Mike Johnson.

Which facts would those be? The "alternative facts"? Facts that would put some money in Trump's pocket?

I think what he means is that he WANTS today's children to be the sickest generation in US history.

So now he’s accusing the Federalist Society of recommending “Radical Left” judges?

I think you’re misunderstanding me. I share your outrage. He is the antithesis of everything I want in a president.

By “help,” I just meant “get along with.” Canada and the U.S. should be the best of friends.

Very true. But they did manage to eke out a win, so I guess I should quit complaining.

With that facial hairstyle, he could have played in the 1800s.

Why do all these Republicans constantly talk over the Senators or Congresspeople?

Double plays, infield errors, pitching implosions, and silent bats. A perfect storm, all at once.
