    Man, this is fun

    It might be fun, but none of what you did above will send a notification...

    You need to start typing with the "at" symbol and then when the name shows, you need to click it to make it blue...

    When I was a young lad, I saw a couple of Nashville Sounds games...  I loved the scoreboard they had (it was the late 70s)...  I am glad that they kept the guitar scoreboard in the new stadium...

    Ribbing a player used to be done all in jest decades ago...  Unfortunately with social media, there is no filter any more and while some are still being done in jest, it is a lot worse...  Either way, I think he needs to put his rabbit ears away and let it go...  Who knows how crazy the other person is, how many people would help them out, if there are any weapons other than fists involved...

    I know it is easier said than done, but it is worth a shot...

    Late to the party on this but so far I have been to

    White Sox

    Cubs

    Astros

    San Fran

    Detroit (of course)

    Cleveland

    Many more I wanna see.   For driving ease, I'd like to hit the Pirates and Reds.

    Nats Park is very basic, I wouldn't bother coming to it...

    Would the Expos have won?  

    Oh yes, that was another good one...  Six up on Atlanta at 74-40...  What might have been...

    Did you have any of these teen girls in your death pool?

    LOL...  They were ineligible since they did not have wiki pages...  Plus they were under 18 as well...

    But I really hope that the ones that died lost their life quickly...  I can't imagine fighting and fighting and trying to survive with about 95% of your thoughts figuring you were not going to make it...  That might be morbid, but a quick death in this situation would be welcome I would think...

    What kind of dumbass question is that? 

    You said, "But these ppl can’t even turn their hate & TDS off for one second cause kids died "

    I was just asking if there were not kids involved, could they continue to act the way that they were without upsetting you?  Just wanting to determine your parameters...

    I swear the least these 3 could do was pretend to be empathetic. Instead they double down on being assh0les & talking about the death of kids like it’s a game. I don’t care if they wanna talk sh1t about Trump or other republicans. That’s just what they do & what majority of this board does. But these ppl can’t even turn their hate & TDS off for one second cause kids died 

    So if there weren't kids involved, would it be okay to act the way that has upset you?

    Seems reasonable.  Thanks.  Probably couldn't hurt to know for training purposes.  I'm guessing breed and how quick or susceptible to training they are, may go hand-in-hand.

    Some vets around where I live want to know all of the breeds involved so they know how to treat them if issues arise...

    Cardinals promote top prospect JJ Wetherholt to Triple-A

    https://www.mlb.com/padres/news/jj-wetherholt-promoted-to-triple-a?t=mlb-pipeline-coverage

    The Cardinals have promoted top prospect JJ Wetherholt to Triple-A Memphis, the club announced on Monday.

    The 22-year-old Wetherholt, newly ranked by MLB Pipeline as the No. 19 prospect in the game, was the Cardinals' first-round Draft pick (seventh overall) last season. Wetherholt played three college seasons at West Virginia, winning a Division I batting title in his sophomore season, when he hit .449.

    The promotion to Triple-A comes after a strong season for the middle infielder at Double-A Springfield, where he hit .300 with seven homers, an .891 OPS and 14 stolen bases in 62 games. Since making his pro debut at Single-A Palm Beach last season, the 5-foot-10, 190-pound Wetherholt has slashed .299/.419/.445 in 401 Minor League plate appearances.

    Wetherholt also brings defensive versatility, as he's spent time at both second base and shortstop during his pro career. This season, he's played mostly short (36 games), but he has played second (17 games) quite a bit. He's also served as a designated hitter nine times.

    -----

    Hopefully he will continue to succeed...

    Just total curiosity on my part. The rescue I got him from couldn’t get any more specific than “hound mix” but couldn’t tell me what kind.

    I’m not surprised at the foxhound and pit. I’m really surprised to see he’s 25% boxer cause he looks nothing like one.

    Shelters are just trying to rehome pups as fast as they can. They’re not waiting for a DNA test.

    And they never mention if a dog could be part pittie or not...  If that word even shows up on an available dog, a lot of people won't even look at it...

    When we adopted our dog in 2020, we were told she was a "Plott Hound", because of the coloring...  When we got the results from our free DNA test, there wasn't any "Plott Hound" in her...  She was half-pittie...

    It is sad that an adoption agency wanting to adopt dogs as quick as possible, just don't tell the truth...  If someone wants a dog that is part pittie, all the more power to them...

    I knew it was 8/12/94 and I guess I didn’t remember the actual days. The Red Sox game was definitely on a Sunday. Either way - sucks didn’t get to follow that up (took pictures in front of empty Wrigley Field. ). 
     

    Yeah it would have been interesting to see if Gwynn could have hit .400...  Would Roger Maris HR record fall?  How many players would have got to 50 HR...

    I told this story before. 1994 saw Red Sox double header in Boston on a Sunday in mid August. Had a business road trip scheduled to Rockford IL. Lined up tickets to Wrigley/Jacob/Cominsky - don’t remember order but that Tuesday MLB went on strike ! 

    Actually they went on strike on a Friday...  It was August 12, 1994...

    I was waiting for the Rays new stadium before taking a trip there for a game but of course they have abandoned those plans due to the hurricane damage to the Trop <_<.

    I'm sure there are some duds but I also assume there are enough cool, unique or historic ones to make it worth doing and to say you went to them all.   I've heard Colorado is fantastic, I know Boston and Baltimore are. Wrigley has to be. San Fran also seems like a cool one if you can sit in right field with the cove behind you.  Athletics in Vegas will probably be nice. 

    PNC Park supposedly has an incredible view of downtown Pittsburgh, but I don't know if you can see that from the outfield...
