Trump spending cuts will slam Tri-Cities worse than most of WA. Here’s how

From Medicaid and food stamps to cutting edge scientific research, this is what the tax cuts will cost the Tri-Cities.

That was lovely! All I was getting was the field noise in the Seahawks v Jaguars. Man, I wish that was an option on coverage. No need to apologize guys, just turn it off again!

Awesome! Humpy is at the Kraken game? I love sportsballpuck teams crossover!

I keep thinking about last night's amazing game between the Mariners and the Tigers. Seven (!) guys pitched for the Ms. They threw a LOT of pitches. But only Cal was behind the plate for every one of them. Hell yeah, MVP!

I want to know if someone retrieved the ball! That's history and it's just out there in right field!

Jorge Polanco with the 15th walk-off hit in a winner-take-all game in postseason history

17th walk-off win in a winner-take-all game overall

INCREDIBLY … the only other ALDS winner-take-all walk-off win?

Edgar’s double

BASEBALL!!!

I think the broadcast folks have met the Mariners - they keep cutting the sound when the players are on the mike!

Eigen Spiders @eigenseide.bsky.social · 1d

Same.

Eigen Spiders @eigenseide.bsky.social · 1d

Ok, that was sexy... I want to know what Cal was saying to JP!

I also thought a mustache would help so I started growing it at the beginning of this game

Eigen Spiders @eigenseide.bsky.social · 1d

As long as we are well into "it's not weird if it works" territory I figured maybe I need a mustache. Pulled out some paper to cut one. Turns out, it's fluorescent green. Don't care. It's what the baseball gods demanded.

I swear some of these players came in clean shaven and now have full beards.
