  1. How about a mostly complete set of "History Of Nations" by Henry Cabot Lodge?
  2. Here it is just in case you missed it.
  3. The Royals beat the Mets on a bases loaded walk off balk in the 10th. Really odd ending.
  4. Bobby Witt Jr has gone GS, solo shot and rbi single in his last 3 ABs. Our boy is growing up right in front of us. ETA: Witt is the first Royal ever to have a hit and rbi in 5 consecutive PAs. I’m surprised Brett never did that.
  5. I'm headed out to the CC for his Celebration of Life. Fuck Cancer
  6. Here’s the deal kids. Life is just a series of doors that you go through. But they are one way doors. No going back. You reach a point that you hate those fucking doors. Get off our fucking backs.
  7. Very little of churching is church. Yuvvie out front should have told you.
  8. This is my hope. The angst about the pick is more about the GM and draft director being holdovers from the Dayton Moore regime. The drafting they did at DMs direction was nothing less than horrible. The total WAR from first round picks since 2015 is 5.7 and Brady Singer accounts for 5.9 of that. Lot of negative WAR from the Hunter Doziers of those drafts. The kid seems like a solid player, maybe taken a few slots too early, but athletic enough to move to a more needed position. I'm hopeful he will be a solid ML player.
  9. I be damned. I can check all three of these. Additionally, I had a Ruger Single Six .357 holstered at the convenience store. To be fair, it was more of a general store and they had hitching rails for the local cowboys. I wasn't being any kind of badass. We still miss that El Camino...
  10. Save his sorry ass over and over so that this can happen over and over. Just seems fair.
  11. Immaculate Grid 90 7/9: 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 🟩⬜️⬜️ 337 rarity index. Sax was my lowest also.
  12. Frank White had nine GG.
  13. I just got a call that one of my longtime golf buddies is coming home from the hospital to enter Hospice care. He's been fighting esophageal cancer for several years and went to the hospital yesterday with pneumonia. One of the nicest, smartest guys I know. Cancer gives no fucks. He will be the first of our group to go and this will leave a huge hole. I'm trying to get a little work done before the holiday but I might as well go home. Fuck Cancer
  14. Did your soul have boobs? No? Well, there you go.
  15. I had a temporal artery biopsy Tuesday and I'm scheduled to see a rheumatologist mid-July. I've been on prednisone again since the 5th of June. I am supposed to get the biopsy results next Tuesday. The biopsy was done because I had a couple of blurred vision episodes. Overall, I'm functioning pretty well. We traveled to the Keys for our Anniversary and another wedding in JAX without too much discomfort. So far so good.
  16. It's a complete and total shitshow, but you already knew that. I really had high hopes that Sherman would restore some sanity to the FO when he bought the team. He has not and now he is asking the KC metro to fund his new stadium dreams with this roster. I've been a fan too long to change it now but god damn if I don't think about it. Name a bandwagon that I should jump on. Salvy should have been traded a couple years ago. He might be the only player they have that might bring a barely respectable return.
  17. So sorry to hear this, Bear. If there is anything you need, just ask. I owe you a couple.
  18. Word is that there is a slim chance he will return but I can’t see it. There isn’t a program anywhere that couldn’t use him and if he wants any post season play, it will have to be elsewhere.
  19. Not at all surprised by the Royals futility but the Angels being at the bottom is the cherry on top.
  20. Well done, Kids! Keep up the good work.
