  1. I assumed Dunning would get it but I'm sure he comes in early if needed.
  2. Yeah, I mean we don't have 4 starters if no Scherzer. If Scherzer could pitch, he was pitching either today or tomorrow. Our pitching staff is what it is. Hopefully a better performance tomorrow.
  3. Well shit. Kind of felt this game would go about like it did. Let's get em tomorrow. I'll be there.

    Just go to Cattleack. It's not that bad of a drive.
  5. This happened to me this year as well. Have been at 0 filing jointly as well which has historically been enough cushion to net a small refund. I had a large gain last year so made a conservative payment (i.e., more than I owed on the gain) as I had some additional untaxed income. Assumed I would still get a $10K or so refund but ended up owing a little over $1K. I have trailing K1's so always extend and file in October but going to have to make a material payment next spring probably to take this into account.
  6. I don't want Elko at A&M. He's not a sure thing but turning Duke into a competitor in a Power 5 conference is impressive, period. In hindsight, Charlie Strong was fools gold because he was at Louisville and had Teddy Bridgewater winning hime games.
  7. Given revenue decline post D&J (per court testimony) do we think they are tacking on extra commercial time? When I left office during game 2 Monday, the Ticket was on when I turned on my car in a commercial break. I flipped over and listened to 2 AB's of the game (both outs) then flipped back and still in commercial break that kept going. By the time the HL finally came back on, I flipped back to check and the bottom of the inning had started. So I don't know how long the commercial break had started before I got in my car, but even assuming it had just started, it seemed longer than normal. Curious if any of the more frequent listeners have noticed anything.
  8. I was randomly in NY for a deal closing as a young attorney and a NY colleague I just met scored me tix to that game from a vendor. Was amazing.
  9. Oh I'm aware. And I hope I'm wrong and we can continue to shut down their lineup. But I just feel like both offenses are about to wake up in Arlington after a couple of pitching duels.
  10. I've always had good group meals at Yellowtail in Bellagio just telling the waiter to load us up on his favorites.
  11. I feel "ok" (not great) about Leclerc rested but certainly not a back to back. Astros have a massive BP advantage. Frankly I was pretty shocked we didn't blow the lead yesterday with all 3 pitching back to back.
  12. I don't give a damn what the odds say. I still feel like we're 50/50 at best to win this series. Hope the squad has the same mindset - still playing with house money! Really need the bats to wake up and have a couple of big games. I would be pretty shocked if we hold them to 4 or less again.
  13. Playoff 'bits' are the best. And Creed is a good one. I remember being secretly super jealous of "Gloria" becoming the St. Louis Blues anthem during their '19 cup run for some similarly odd reason.
  14. Have sitter lined up to watch kids, telling clients I'm out Friday afternoon, etc. Would be ecstatic to have to cancel all that.
  15. Quality pitching and D has been a really nice surprise this postseason. But at this point, Houston has seen the reliable pitching Rangers can throw at them (including same BP arms 2X). Rangers bats are going to have to have a couple of big games to take the series IMO. I'm not sure 5 runs wins another game for the Rangers.
  16. Never a doubt!!
  17. Well fuck. Bad luck
  18. Shit. Dusty actually making a smart move for once. Semien was about to crush his soul.
  19. Welp, at least nobody was on.
  20. Isn't that supposed to be the PBP? Driving home soon and planned to tune in obviously.
  21. Is that not reviewable?
  22. JFC ump. That's awful
  23. Love it. Umps can't even slow this train down
