3 more outs.

Wasn't terribly pleased seeing NY get on the scoreboard first. Good on KC to get that run back and more.

KC is fully welcome to join everybody else in the 1-1 party so far as I'm concerned. I'm rooting for them.

That was the first stuff kicked off social media about eight onion rings ago. Thet were incrementally banning everybody more and more mainstream conservative until Elon Musk came along. Meanwhile Communists and terrorists were always free to spout anything they wanted. Unless you outright advocated for violence, it was/is impossible to be so extreme left to ever get banned.

Next two games are in Detroit with the potential to see Skubal again in game five. That'd screw up the potential KC/Yankees series but you do what you need to do. A three or five game series is winnable, but these longer series don't do a team that relies on one pitcher so heavily any favors. It wasn't that long ago (to me at any rate) that the Tigers use to own the Yankees in the postseason, but there's nobody left on the team that remembers those days. Two whole new ballclubs.

Since I never lived in Florida until this year, I never had more than a "well that sucks, but its somebody else's problem" attitude about all this hurricane stuff. Panzhihua and Detroit didn't have anything like this. Now that I DO live here, I've become obsessed with this stuff. Three hurricanes have come through now and done nothing to us personally; Milton looks sure to miss us too but I'm still uneasy nonetheless. Pensacola has a history of getting clobbered and its more like "there but for the grace of God go I" type thing going on. We're 5/8 of the way through our first hurricane season and this is pretty dang scary.

It's the least bad form of government humanity has ever come up with. Allowing people on the public dole or with student loan forgivness to vote though is stupid. The merits of such programs, good or bad, can be argued but "Here's a buttload of taxpayer money, vote for me" is a recipe for financial ruin and should not be a campaign strategy (which is a major, long-standing, lifelong problem I have always had with the Democratic Party).

I'm glad Fields is getting another shot as I never thought he was that bad and could well turn out to be another Baker Mayfield or Geno (or Sam Darnold?) discount bin reclamation project. The Steelers are not exactly thrilled with what he's been doing in Pittsburgh but he's not been a disaster either. The change of scenery was needed to re-evaluate and Pitt is as good a landing spot as he could have asked for. Five games in, Jayden Daniels looks like the rookie QB to have at this point; glad he's Philly and Dallas's long term problem in a different division. As for Williams, developing slowly is not unusual. He's 3-2 now but probably won't finish with a great record considering all those brutal division matchups he's not had to start dealing with.

Wordle 1,206 3/6 🟨 🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 I'd not put too much thinking into my guess. I was mostly expecting to see what, if any, turned green....turned out all of them plus more.

Framed #941 🟥 🟥 🟥 🟥 🟥 🟥 https://framed.wtf Not for me. The first one I skipped, the second one I guessed "Clue", I skipped 3-5, and guessed Exorcist on 6.

Wordle 1,205 5/6 🟨🟨🟨 🟨🟨🟨🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Pissed me off. Went for a deuce, landed on a five.

Suspended games suck. The NFL use to play through anything. Some of the most memorable regular season games are (use to be) slop-fests.

I'd appreciate it if Hurricane Milton stays away from Milton, Florida.

INT! Cards pulled it off!

Would have loved to see one more first down there to drain the clock and settle my nerves, but the go-ahead FG will have to suffice. Now AZ has to hold them for the final 1:40.

Wow, Arizona in good shape to win this game. Keep it up AZ.
