14 games between now and the All-Star break..
Vs Angels (tomorrow)
Vs Royals (4 games)
At A’s (3 games)
At Angels (3 games)
Vs A’s (3 games)Currently 50-27. If the Astros can go 10-4 against that, they’ll have 60 wins at the break with 71 games remaining. A barely above .500 second half would get them 100 wins. I didn’t think this was a 100 win team before the season started. I felt this was a 90 win type team that would enter the playoffs as one of those experienced teams that that had a punchers chance to win it all. I underestimated the pitching.

Why did the Mariners get so much hype anyway?
They won 90 games in 2021, but had a -51 run differential. Their expected win total should have had them around 5-10 games under .500.

There is one in Junction Texas. I went there last weekend and it was like walking through a portal into the late 80s.
Junction or the Radio Shack?

The red Pat Patriot uniforms are nice, and everyone seems to love them, but my biggest nitpick with them is the British (lobsterbacks) wore red during the Revolutionary War.

Yeah, in real life he moved to Houston and attended Bellaire HS before returning to Huntsville to play baseball at Sam Houston State.

But the line/question isn't about Mitch's year, it's about Randall "Pink" Floyd's year, which is Fall 1976. Don't know what that looks like though.
Yeah, but I find it interesting that Pink’s team (or maybe not his team) went undefeated the following season only to lose in the first round of the Texas state playoffs.

Assuming Lee is Huntsville HS (which by all accounts, it is) according to Google, the Hornets went 10-1 in 1976, which means they went undefeated in the regular season only to get bounced in the first round of the playoffs. They would win it all in 1980, though. The year after Mitch Kramer graduated.

I love Rudy and Paco’s, but The Steakhouse is a solid consolation. It’s on par with Vic & Anthony’s, or at least it was a few years back.

My weather app has the heat index going over 110° for the next 8 days.

Doesn't mean it couldn't be done well or better. Frankly, I'd like to see a version that doesn't involve Chevy Chase chewing the scenery in every take.
I like Fletch better than every movie ever made that didn’t have Chevy Chase chewing scenery.

This happened 34 minutes after I'd left the lodge. The griz killed one of two calves the moose had.

My family rented Top Gun on a weekend I was staying at a friend’s house. It was returned to the video store before I could watch it. That was it. I missed my window and have gone 35 years since being someone who’s never watched Top Gun. It’s nice to be someone.

I read an article perhaps 25 years ago in which one of the creators (who was gay) knew there was plenty of comedy gold to be mined from a persnickety, bickering gay couple, but he suspected it would be next to impossible to get on the air. So he took those concepts to the Crane Bros., and the result was the most decorated comedy in TV history (37 Emmy wins).
This makes sense. While Cheers was winding down, Kelsey Grammer was getting movie offers, so he had leverage when NBC started discussing spinoff ideas with him. He told them that he felt the Frasier-Lilith storyline had ran its course, so they came back to him with the idea of him having traditional marriage type comedy with a brother character.

Spent a bunch of time in shipyards around the world commissioning equipment on drilling rigs and the heavy lift barges never cease to amaze me. Here, let's lift the massive topside module at one time and drop it right into place. That Hyundai 10000 it a 10K ton lift capacity and almost the biggest one out out. At the Kiewit yard in Ingleside, they built at 13K ton shearleg crane just to lift the Thunderhorse topside modules (production, compression, generator) in one lift each. I did an equipment survey on the TH in Korea before it was hauled to Kiewit. IIRC, just the module topside area was about 60 yards by 115 yards. I paced it off and laughed at the thought of a regulation size football field on the top of a semisubmersible. /CSB
Hadn't heard that name in a while. I was working for a production company at the time and shot the Thunderhorse sailout at Ingleside back in 2006. First and last time I ever pointed a camera at something moving under 0.5 mph for 8 straight hours. /CSB
