I wouldn’t call her terrible, but frankly someone that naive shouldn’t be the head of anything. I remember those old Looney Tunes cartoons when a character gets badly fooled and turns into an “All Day Sucker” lollipop. 🍭

Hate to say it. Machado is a sucker.

Best Giants hire since Joe Judge.

Score of last two NYR losses combined: 18-6. Remember earlier this year when Rangers had a stingy D? Good times!!

The FIFA boycott is on! How did the President of FIFA not get fired for that stunt?

To be good at golf you have to be skilled at manipulating a stiff shaft. And if you’re not you just take a few extra whacks at it (but you don’t count them all).

Would there be a reasonable basis to disbar Bondi? I’m guessing you’ll say you don’t need to have a law license to be US AG, but I’d like to see it anyway.

Just an opportunity for opposing teams to decide who to buy from Rangers. It’s like a yard sale. Play well boys!

Except the Dark Matter series. He and Jennifer Connelly did the best they could but I thought it was way over the top. But Train Dreams was an amazingly profound performance.

I was a kid who got the benefit of an extra ticket to see the GD in NYC in 1971. The show opened with driving rendition of Bobby’s “Greatest Story Ever Told.” His music’s contribution to my life is immense. Hard to believe he’s gone. “Like the morning sun you come and like the wind you go.”

Thanks all. See you next season.

If the Greenlanders want it fine. Everyone has a price. But I don’t blame them if they turn down even a highly lucrative offer. Rule by this country is no bargain. Not before. Not now.
