Those were ugly too and I was thinking the same thing when I saw them. Agree with the sentiment of the thread.

This vote doesn't require a strict majority in the Senate, where rules requires 60 votes out of 100. The Democrats can block it since the GOP only has 53 members.

Doh.

Lucky to be back in this, batters disappeared for seven innings.

I think they'll win today, but the batters aren't impressive and all these runners left on base is a troubling trend.

Just saw that Marvin Harrison TD catch this week. Pretty impressive. He's really come on strong almost instantly after Jerry and I chatted about him halfway through last week's game.

Its nice to see the EU doesn't seem inclined to save democracy by cancelling election results again this time.

Getting the first was huge. Gotta win those non-Skubal games. Now we have him for game two and potentially game five.

Just last week in Indianapolis, somebody finally committed a more embarrassing fumble than his.

OK. Works for me.

No. It is about drugs. Will you admit your theory of war vs Venezuela is bogus when you lose your challenge to Meglamanic in "a few months?" I hope you ll conceed that we do have to call BS at some point. How about the end of Trump's first term, January 2027?

Wow! Let's see if there is any actual agreement. If those hostages do indeed get released, that'd be a big step in getting there.

Great idea. I'll forward it to Pete Hegseth.

You gotta cut it off somewhere. Soon we'll feel sorry for team #77. Just scratch the regular season entirely and invite 3000 teams. If we run out of colleges to invite, open it up to workplace or beer league teams or any group of twelve people that want to participate.

Gonna have to bump this thread in a few month to see who's right. How many are 'a few', Tim?

"Democrats think Trump is playing a game of chicken, but Trump is actually playing a game of 'let me crash into your car'."

I'm just goofing on you. He goes by Mike Johnson, Michael Johnson reminds me of that champion sprinter from the 90s.

The golden shoes guy?

She seems decent enough in the songs I've heard when I know its her. It a win not changing the radio dial after a half second, a lot of modern artists don't get that treatment. Still, I'm not the target demographic.

Virginia and New Jersey are blue states. Virginia only went red last time because the Dem they ran was particularly awful and made too many unforced errors. This NJ Democrat is just as bad as that Virginia Democrat but ... it's New Jersey. Blue voters are entitled to elect blue governments and they do. It their prerogative. Its not like Ohio went blue, that would be tragic. Overall Its been a spectacular nine months but I'm feeling particularly good this week, seeing Russ Vought being provided with a Congressional mandate to unclog many of the DOGE related needed reforms that are being stalled in lower courts.

Homeschoolers will be happy.

Tigers move on again. Phew. Probably only going to see Skubal once in this next series. Oh, well another fresh 0-0 start. Better us moving on than Cleveland.

Ask again in two weeks.
