Re: Memorial Day 2024
For me a better description of Memorial Day. Unknown author. Monday will be the most expensive holiday on the calendar. Every hot dog, every burger, every spin around the lake or drink with friends and family….is a debt….purchased by others. This is not about all who’ve served…that day comes in the ...

Re: Israel and Zionism
Bibi is now under a lot of pressure. The #1 Israel supporter in the Senate tells him to take a walk and is not concerned with back home Jewish blow back in an election year. I'm sure Biden supports that. Biden should have done that some time ago, cut off the billions and let Bibi continue on withou...

Re: Obituaries - Gone but not forgotten.
I have never heard of many of the people that show up under this subject. Perhaps many of you haven’t heard of this person. Many in the world know who Roger Bannister was and his historic run. Well Kelvin Kiptum would have also completed a fantastic achievement soon by being the first man to run a m...

Re: Baseball
Billy Wagner was the first pitcher I ever saw hit 100 mph in person. One thing DMac will approve of is the fact that he’s a lefty….well at least while pitching 😀 but he’s right handed. When he was a kid he naturally played with his right but broke that arm so started throwing with his left while it...

Re: Baseball
I was disappointed Billy Wagner didn’t get in this year, only needed five more votes…..he’ll probably get in next year, sure hope so as it will be his 10th and last year on the list.

Brooklyn, I’m really surprised you missed posting a holiday as you are the person who keeps everyone up to date on the many memorable occasions. It couldn’t be you intentionally skipped posting this day… https://www.officer.com/on-the-street/article/53082018/national-law-enforcement-appreciation-day...

Many teams have life long fans but Mike is really out there. Since the piece below, he's gone even further. He had his truck painted to match the house and then he found an old Harley, which I don't think even runs and had that done also. He plays in the same golf league as me, along with his father...

Re: The Abortion Thread
Speaking of Texas, researchers looked at college enrollments for the top 100 US colleges in the years up to and including 2022. They found that red state colleges saw freshman enrolments down 1% in 2022. Reading this as an early signal that red states were going to have a problem. The scrotus bags ...

Re: Baseball
Surprised the juvenile cheating BS is going on here. No doubt about what took place and they got off easy. The fine should’ve been $50 million not $5, taken more drafts slots and what maybe have hurt them the most, Manfred should’ve vacated the World Series title. I saw the Blue Jays play the Astros...

Thank you. The Braves are a truly great team. Don’t know the team very well but it seems the layoff may have hurt them. Three of the four teams that got byes are now out. The article here points out that the Braves, Dodgers and Astros all had 5 days off last year and this year. It didn’t seem to hi...
