  1. A Jan 6th remembrance statue
  2. It's a line from an Augie Garrido rant. I presume there is no good base to get picked off at.
  3. How the hell do you get picked off first base?
  4. Spoiler: He never did get his job back and then voted for him a fourth time.
  5. Why people believe anything that dude says is beyond my comprehension.
  6. What Biden lacked some charismatic surrogates to put forth his message and he was really terrible at doing it himself. But Obama was good at this the Democrats still suffered bad defeats when he was in charge so...
  7. Time to break the streak today.
  8. And I think, based on this latest episode, that despite Rick Perry eventually finding out what the Department of Energy does, the Republicans STILL don't know what it does.
  9. The nice thing about baseball is we always have another game coming up very soon, so the over-reactions to every game don't last long.
  10. I just want to point out that Rick Perry ran for President on a platform that included getting rid of the Department of Energy while admitting later when he became Energy Secretary that he had no idea what the DOE even did. That is some impressive statesmanship right there. People get upset Gen Alpha can't read, but those boomer politicians don't seem to have spent much time doing that either.
  11. We also had tons of Trump supporters saying we were fear mongering about project 2025. Haven't seen them around much lately either. Mostly what I get from Trump people now is how great it is somebody is doing something about government spending. But I don't see what good that is going to do with all the big tax cuts in that tax bill. But granted, that bill isn't law yet.
  12. Yeah. It was years ago. And it was waffling and pretty tame, not exactly a bold and full throated demand. Hardly anything she vocally supported in her campaign, or something all the Democrats lined up behind. But that was enough.
  13. I think this is why people love the copium in this thread. We are well aware that unless a certain number of people are people personally hurt, they will happily sit by and watch horrible things happen to everybody around them. So we hope that Trump's policies will be disastrous enough to enough people that people wake up and save the day in time. But I think that is unlikely. Though, as we saw with Biden, inflation and general economic problems can sink any President. So if that happens again that might finally break the MAGA spell. Or not. What do I know?
  14. Not really. The polls had been bleak for years. That is not to say that Kamala shouldn't have done better but even if she had done well it still would have been a narrow victory. It was going to take a miracle to hold on to the Senate. I don't see any evidence a landsllide victory was in the cards for either side. I also did not see the Democrats vocally supporting cutting ICE or saying they supported government funded trans surgeries. If they had, that at least would have been them boldly proclaiming a set of policies which would have been nice. I think we had a clip of Kamala waffling through a question from a few years back about trans care in prisons. But whatever her fringe unpopular causes she vocally supported (links to this vocal support?) the polls were looking bleak before she even got the nomination. I was here trying to cope with the likely defeat for that reason.
  15. Maybe. But I am not going to read too much into one game. Just starting to learn who these guys are.
  16. Oh how I love these early season tournaments. Well see y'all tomorrow.
  17. Duplantier is here to save the day.
  18. We are going to be here all night, aren't we?
  19. He was here last year. Didn't play much though.
  20. Ah well. We had a good run. Let's try to win this again.
  21. Louisville fails to cover second and everybody is safe. Let's get another one.
  22. Ok this freshman might be pretty good after all. And Flores gets a hit! Maybe we just needed a blown lead to wake the offense up.
