I’m a buff. History and bios. Sports, especially baseball and the Mets. Plus Wisconsin Badgers basketball. Been around a long time and seen a lot. So “this, too, shall pass.” Luckiest guy in the world to meet my love after some failures.

I am so happy that the orange man had to sit through that absolute work of art

Trump’s answer to rising prices will be to send a $200 check to everyone who voted for him. Illegal and immoral. Think that would stop him?

Bullies expect their targets to fold. When individuals or countries fight back, their reaction is “WTF!”

They think it’s going to be smooth sailing. It’s going to be re of a “perfect storm”.

Saw him on CNN and he was sympathetic. Then I reminded my wife that he’s a real MAGA asshole.,

Biden did some good things. But his legacy for me will be giving us Clarence Thomas and Donald Trump.

Cancelled our subscription. They’re losing some of their great people to The Atlantic, owned by Steve Jobs widow.

So Pete and nothing else? What if Pete signs with the Giants?

Hit 100. Celebrated XMas. Got out before that shitbag is inaugurated. Joins his beloved. RIP.

Agree on Taylor. Siri has a 40% K rate.

Would love to have Bregman and Profar. Vientos to first. Pete to Frisco. Taylor 4th outfielder. Siri is a strikeout machine. Oh, and we need bullpen help.

Would love to get Bregman and Profar, and have Pete be happy in Frisco.

Musk in Trump’s ear. “Fuhrer, you can do everything that Hitler did except murder 6 million Jews. Don’t worry about whether some brown people, even kids, die. Nobody would care. Look what that Commie FDR did to the Japanese Americans during WW2. Don’t worry, I’ve got your back”.

Just the beginning. Wall Street doesn’t suffer fools. And he’s the very definition of one.

Which is followed by labor unrest and strikes. Kids, see these pictures of Starbucks and Amazon workers on strike. This is called a “picket line”. True Americans will not cross these lines and shop at Amazon and Starbucks. We won’t even cross a virtual “picket line” and shop online.

Agree. We had a delivery guy expound on how everything was good under Bush, then Obama messed it up, then Trump started to fix it, then Biden messed it up. He also said that they should leave Trump alone and go after “them Clintons and them “Bidens. WTF!

When things go wrong, and they will, Trump will blame Elon, and quickly jettison him. And so it goes.

The great backlash to the Robber Barons’ in the early 1900’s was the rise of the unions. Now, it’s Deja vu. Amazon and Starbucks workers striking first. More to come, especially if Trump/Musk new policies only benefit corporations’ bottom lines and billionaires’ bank accounts. “Solidarity.”

I have the greatest respect for Pelosi, but her dislike (hatred, jealousy) of AOC is hurting the party and the country.

Be careful what we wish for. Look who’s waiting in the wings, a total Project 2025 tool. And after him, Satan’s progeny. Could happen. Just one KFC chicken bone away.

If not Pete, then another real bat. Bregman. Teoscar. Robert, Jr. After Lindor, Soto, Vientos, the rest of the lineup has big holes. Low BAs, lots of Ks, no consistency.

submitted 78 days ago • 1 comment

Agree 100%, but we need even more in the rotation and the pen. And I’m concerned about the bottom half of the lineup. Lots more work needed. Soto didn’t buy us the championship.

Does Brunson ever have a bad game? Or even a so-so one? He’s also a class act.

submitted 81 days ago • 0 comments

I agree. You still need pitching, both starters and setup. Plus, without Pete, or a suitable replacement (Bregman?), the lineup is lacking. Nimmo hit 220 with 150 K’s. Squirrel, Alvie, Marte, Siri, Taylor are all questionable. Who’s the quality DH? I trust Stearns will get it done.

submitted 81 days ago • 0 comments

Very weak past the first 3. Especially if Nimmo hits 220 again. Not a championship lineup. Not a championship rotation. Lots more to be done.

Let his new AG and FBI guy spend all of their time going after Liz and the others. Let Jim Jordan and the other minions mount an effort to investigate the 2020 election. It will all be a waste of time and prevent them from doing real damage elsewhere.

That wasn’t no second rate hitter he did this to. A couple of greats.

This should be an historic moment. A tragedy leading to positive changes. But because the Republicans and Conservatives own the Federal Government, it won’t.

We’ve never been the “shining city on the hill”. Look at our history of slavery, bigotry, and scandal. Of haves and have-nots. It’s always been a fight of good people against the powerful evil ones. Sometimes “goodness” gets its head above water. But evil comes back with a vengeance. And so it goes.
