two Snake Handlers in a half hour THAT CONCRETE.

the greatest flight of my life was from SFO to Chicago for PRINT '05. I put my ten days of packing in a Pelican case and they FedEx'd it from the office to the hotel with a return label enclosed, and I flew with only a laptop sleeve. I deadass thought I was Tony Stark.

Doug can’t win but purple state dems should take note: this is a winning message

am I having a stroke

I had to fly to Seattle for the day once and had no checked bag, no carry-on, nothing. I felt like a damn superhero

the problem is, we need a commissioner who is something other than the owners' catspaw and we haven't for over thirty years. I don't know if it needs to be a federal appointee confirmed by the Senate and serving for life, but it couldn't hurt

Dungeons and Dragons high school class rings if your mascot was the Blue Devils the freak show at the state fair

when is the last time anyone was stealing bases, hit-and-running, bunting for effect? Whitey Herzog's Cardinals? Early 2010s Vanderbilt?

Fred Flintstone's rich asshole cousin lookin ass face get in your barefoot car and yabba dabba donk yourself off

Confiscatory levels of taxation and capital punishment for billionaires who exist would go a LONG way right now

clearly he doesn't want his hairdresser to succeed

The extent to which baseball has become about optimization is ruining the game. Optimization is boring. The value in sports comes from the novelty and the long-tail events. Move the mound back a foot and make guys learn placement and speed changing again

I know, I know, not with that attitude, it's a me problem

because a couple of teams can throw INSANE money to wreck the curve for superduperstars and then it's just calling up from Sacramento to pad out the roster it also doesn't help that no one can *pitch* anymore and it's just about throwing 100 over and over

As tempted as I've been, none of the windows on the trains here open

gotta have a salary floor. There are way too many smaller-market teams that are happy to pocket the revenue sharing, claim "moneyball, trust the process" and run a AAAA-roster out there for YEARS at a whack hell, there are large-market teams that do that (stares in San Francisco Busters)
