oh, nevermind, it's really just God Bless the USA with Canada in place of USA and "American" with "in Canada"

I remember John Oliver talking about that. Wasn't it just like a form song where you could slap ANY country's name into it?

I'm also wondering how Linda Tirado is doing. She was blinded in one eye when being shot with a rubber bullet covering the George Floyd protests, and as time has passed, a TBI is basically slowing killing her.

The problem is...this behavior and quite literally everything that is happening from the administration is each a constitutional crisis...

But Trump has flooded the zone with so much shit, it's basically normalized now.

Trump calls for Brandon Johnson and JB Pritzker to be imprisoned

Chicago Mayor should be in jail for failing to protect Ice Officers! Governor Pritzker also!

I mean, there IS some nuance here but...

I don't think Ted Cruz understands how a wiki works?

It’s wild to me that it’s still about a 70/30 breakdown…

Who exactly liked his results?!?!

who are these 79 people and why are they just clones of Mike Elias over and over again

This sounds like bad news on the secondary front. Trading a starter at Edge, which you are ALREADY short on, to get S help???

Either Kyle is out for a WHILE or they are pulling the plug this year on Starks

NFL Daily News @fantasynflnews.bsky.social · 23h

Back in 2013, I remember Ed Reed playing for the Texans against the Ravens, and then a few weeks later he was traded to the Jets and got ANOTHER chance to play against the Ravens.

Still, it's wild to think Flacco has a shot to play 3x against the Ravens in 2025.

i did this last year too, can't remember if I felt this fatigued...but I also wasn't waking up early and getting a 2 mile walk in every morning so...<shrug>

PoeKnowsBest @hoejamilton.bsky.social · 1d

Getting COVID and Flu Shot at the same time was probably the right decision...

But my left arm and my overall muscular system does not agree with it right now.

Orioles finally making the big moves

Andy Kostka @afkostka.bsky.social · 2d

The Orioles agreed to a minor league deal with José Barrero, the team announces.

The 27-year-old was with Triple-A Norfolk briefly this season, playing 53 games with a .190 average. He plays infield and outfield

PoeKnowsBest @hoejamilton.bsky.social · 2d

he's been in the marching band for 63 YEARS!!!!!

It's pretty amazing that John Ziemann is STILL with the Marching Ravens.

I immediately wondered if Rickie Weeks was related to Jemile Weeks.

And they are! Brothers!

I really would love to hear from the probably 1 person who was like "Actually, I was expecting Trump to literally be driving the tanks through the street day after inauguration. This is MUCH calmer!"

PoeKnowsBest @hoejamilton.bsky.social · 2d

the joy I'm going to feel when Orioles finally win their first playoff game in 11+ years...

PoeKnowsBest @hoejamilton.bsky.social · 2d

You threw me for a minute there…

I was like “No fucking way they did that this morning”
