Highlights from Wikipedia entry on Trot Nixon: May 5, 2002, threw his bat toward Devil Rays pitcher Ryan Rupe, pretending the bat slipped out of his hands while swinging. Fined $2,000 and suspended four games. Best year was 2003, hit .306 with 28 home runs, 87 RBIs. On October 4, in Game 3 of ALDS, had a two-run pinch-hit homer in the bottom of the 11th to win the series over Oakland. Hit .333 (8 for 24) with 3 home runs and 5 RBIs in the ALCS but Sox lost to the Yankees. Herniated disc and a tight thigh muscle kept him out of much of 2004, but hit a two-out, two-run double off the right field wall at Busch Stadium in St. Louis in the top of the third to give Boston a 3–0 lead -- the final score in the fourth game of Boston's World Series sweep, bringing its first title in 86 years. Batted .357 (5 for 14) with 3 doubles, 3 RBIs in the series. Endeared himself to Sox fans by briefly wearing a mohawk hairstyle, "one of many unconventional and bizarre hairstyles the Sox sported over the course of the 2004 season." Known for his "extremely volatile temper and steadfast dedication to his teammates. In August 2005, while officially on the disabled list, Nixon remained in uniform and in the dugout with the rest of the team during the game. When teammate Gabe Kapler ... hit a long fly ball off of the Green Monster, the umpires ruled it a double. Nixon leapt off the bench and argued with such passion that Kapler's hit had been a home run (television replays confirmed that the hit had landed above the home run line...) that he was ejected from the game."

We’re the #7 seed, they’re #2. Think you were looking at players #s.

I’m more pissed that we seem not give af than anything else. I said that during game 1 as arky pitchers and ramped up and locked in and we looked like the last place team and not a team on a mission to complete. Maybe it’s a one weekend hiccup and probably so or maybe we have bigger issues at the plate. Thankfully we’re locked in to host the regional and super unless we just shit the bed and lose out and and lose 0-2 in the sec tourney.

Our 3s got rocked, they were my hope.

Just looking at this thing sets off my claustrophobia alarm. Might take a little bigger hit of Valium whenever I have to hit the MRI shop next.

How about during a thunder/snow storm above the tree line in Rocky Mountain National Park? About 10 years ago, I went to a funeral in Austin for a HS friend, and after a week of seeing friends I hadn't seen in 20 years, I left Austin at midnight and was driving on I-10, east of Columbus. I dozed off in my F-250 going 75-80 mph, opened my eyes, jerked the wheel and hit the guard rail, and shot across the road way and hit the concrete retaining wall on the opposite side of the bridge. The impact put a 6" dent in the rear wheel and ripped the rear axle off one side, and the impact with the bridge bent the 8" beams on the brush guard flush with the front of the truck. I walked away without a scratch. A motorist behind me told the DPS Trooper I had been weaving for ~10 miles, and the Trooper was very business like and attentive, until he saw the empty Crown Royal bag hanging from the dash board (it had reading glasses, sun glasses, phone charger and other misc. crap, not paraphernalia, in it.) His attitude changed 180° and I got the full treatment. I was standing next to I-10, in shorts and a tee shirt, cars and trucks flying by with a 20+ mph wind blowing and I was cold and in shock, shaking like a leaf. He put me through all the "tests" that he would normally do, but completely ignored the fact I had just hit a concrete wall going 80 mph. Good thing I was yoga instructor and 5'-8" and 150 lbs. The ambulance came and "checked me out". In the middle of their "exam", a call on the radio alerted of another accident with injuries, and the ambulance wrapped it up and took off. I called my wife in Katy~ 2 am, and she hit the button that said she was "busy and would call back later". WTF? I finally got her to answer the phone, and said she would be there in an hour. Totally spaced out; forgot I had AAA. The wrecker driver took me and my belongings to a gas station, and I sat outside on the curb by myself with my belongings in a pile, and waited for an hour for my ride home. One of many out of body experiences in my life. We made our morning flight to St. Louis for vacation later that same morning.

Would be nice to win a set as the #2 seed playing against #21.

In a strong display of solidarity, we should all get laid.

Our 4s got rocked.

Glop has long been the preferred label for a variety of meal staples. Now, thanks to this thread, we're going to have to rename it Pre-Glop.

It is an exceedingly small, disgustingly vile, government that goes door to door, asking for papers.

This is going to be a shit show.

When do we get the Netflix spinoff show starring Kimi, Lando, and Yuki? Young millionaires banging supermodels a full foot taller than them.

Welp, 33-31 frogs. Now we're in danger of not winning a set.

Ava & Vivian battled, but couldn’t close. Horrific serving. Viv is a freshman, she’ll be at 3s next year.

Tracking Trump Administration and Cabinet picks

HHS released what is essentially the American Cass Report (it cites the Cass Report like over a hundred times) a couple of days ago, and the American Academy of Pediatrics immediately denounced it. The disingenuous bigots don't even have the courage to put their names on it (probably because they had AI write it). -
I believe there has been 9" dildo turd discussions in this thread before. All my experience has been the opposite direction. If you're familiar with concrete terminology I'm usually around a 10" slump.

Wait until the Russkies offer to split Poland with them before you set that in stone. No CR, real History....

"It's not just bad people and criminals." She did use the word "extradited," right? -
You should switch to a Beretta and a minimal shoulder holster.
