It wasnβt the trade so much as their determination to never give him a chance even when they clearly had no better alternatives. Why not?
It was like they had determined he was never going to be a big leaguer and then they set out to fulfill that prophecy by never giving him a chance to be one
This Wrexham-Chelsea game is maximum entertainment. And Wrexham has long since crossed over from a novelty and into a case study for a new era of celebrity sports team ownership combined with integrated entertainment programming.
I find it fascinating not to mention Iβm totally on the bandwagon
Why would the Mellon Foundation do this?
Chargers and Bears acquiring non-Linderbaum Centers prior to free agency has me feeling like the βmarket-settingββoffer DeCosta claims to have offered Linderbaum might indeed be the most anyone is willing to pay him
Just watch this entire clip. It gets more amazing every time you see it
Manny in 2014 was the only time I remember seeing a defensive baseball player actually intimidate the other team
Madubuikeβs neck, I am praying for you
I like it a lot, just saying theyβre probably banking on that 2027 pick being late in the first round
Hopefully itβs the #32 pick in 2027 anyway
Eric DeCosta finally making moves like a man who knows his job is on the line without another Super Bowl appearance
Never thought of myself as an accelerationist but...labor market losing 92,000 jobs in February, crude oil now up 50% so far this year, embroiled in a pointless and immoral war
Feels like there's at least potential to imagine remaking the status quo. Don't know if the bold leadership exists though
My dad has 4 brothers so Iβm imagining what my parents could have named me if they had used the Markwayne unclesβ names portmanteau convention

Great stuff, I look forward to other media outlets mining it for nuggets that they pass off without attribution for the next 6 weeks
My annual advice for this weekend: Don't wait until Sunday morning to set your clock ahead. Turn it ahead at 5 pm Friday to give you (and especially your kids) 36 extra hours to start adjusting
Just remember you're living 1 hour in the future until Sunday a.m. and adjust your schedule accordingly
Interesting how much more coverage this story is getting than when it was the broadcast towers atop TV Hill that were raining lead paint chips on the city
Texas Reps to constituents: You canβt fire me, I quit
This is wonderful and truly life-altering news. Congratulations!
How would you phase "lashes out" if it had been the U.S. destroying an Iranian intelligence station that was presumably producing vital information helping target American military and political leaders?
Something like "a targeted strike significantly degrading Iranian intelligence capabilities"?
Mine eyes have seen the horror of Trump going off his gourd;
He is talking up the ballroom where the drapes of graft are stored;
He hath called another meeting where he dropped his head and snored;
His flesh is falling off
still wondering how these can possibly be used legally in Maryland, given its dual-party consent law for recording conversations
Literal endorsement of βforeverβ war
Trump getting a rash from a cream to prevent a rash is like Trump starting a war with Iran to prevent Iran from starting a war with the US
Haha this is truly a disgusting masterpiece
I went Don Baylor and Dan Ford for the Angels/Oβs OF crossover
Imagine being one of two people in the world for whom being introduced by an orchestra blasting the Indy theme is thrilling rather than cringeworthy (John Williams is the other, though I would probably go with the Superman theme for him)
Of all the euphemisms that have become accepted terminology, I really donβt like βwar of choiceβ
It really obscures whatβs happening, βsneak attackβ or βunprovoked invasionβ seem more descriptive
Itβs Spiders-Man like Attorneys General
Unfortunately theyβre all in Congress
They printed a poster, complete with the Epic Fury title, and set it on an easel behind Trump as a prop for these photos
In todayβs electronic warfare environment, heβs posing with a middle school classroom map
On the bright side Trumpβs ear seems totally healed, never seen cartilage grow back like that
Literally the first thing on your mind is what the Secretary of State is going to say to Congress about this?
You are Process Poisoned. You are a Creature of Capitol Hill. You are so clearly insufficient to the moment and need to step aside for someone willing to fight for our democracy
