Not so new boys of summer

July 28, 2018

So after Rob Manfred says Mike Trout should market himself…. who’s on Saurday’s Fox Game of the Week? Cubs vs. Cardinals. Who’s on Sunday Night Baseball tomorrow? Cubs vs. Cardinals.

 

You know it’s getting bad for SF Giants fans when your goal for the night is less making up ground on Dodgers than jinxing the no-hitter.

 

Bruce Bochy took a red-eye flight tonight to New York for Trevor Hoffman’s Hall-of-Fame induction ceremony tomorrow.    Hope the flight stocked a LOT of his favorit red wine.

So far, this year’s MLB’s trade deadline is the most “rich get richer” that we’ve seen since GOP passed those tax cuts.

 

Reports now Donald  Trump wanted to see Ivanka married to Tom Brady. Millions of Americans would be okay with that – Patriots couldn’t be any more hated, & we’d have Ivanka out of DC.

FOX News website headline “DHS: All eligible immigrant parents reunited with children.” Only down in the story is the line “Hundreds of children remain apart from their families following separations at the border.”
State TV at its finest.

 

Necco candy plant in Revere, MA, suddenly closed. They made Necco Wafers, Mary Janes & Valentine’s Day tiny Sweetheart candies. Will the last candy hearts instead of saying “Be Mine” say “Blame Trump?”

NY Times reports Jared Kushner “has privately said that he has been taking action against ‘incompetence.'”
Some statements don’t even need a punchline.

Crickets from Trump on deadly California Carr Fire. Although imagine the tweet storm if he thought it was started by an immigrant.

And ten people at least shot in New Orleans, three fatally.  Less sad perhaps that we reset the USA  mass shooting clock than that we barely notice.

 

Can we call Trump the “Pinball President?” Because scandals come so fast & furious it’s like a ball bouncing so fast off bumpers we don’t know what to react to next.

Jerry Jones’ son Stephen, Dallas executive VP, said players should stand “if they want to be a Dallas Cowboy.”
So if they want to take out their frustrations, players should do something more American like beating their girlfriends?

 

Former SF Giant Ryan Vogelsong, on missing being a major league pitcher. “I had an excuse to be mad at everyone every fifth day.”

 

Facebook blocked Alex Jones for 30 days for “spreading hate speech and encouraging physical harm.”
And then did they lock the barn door and start searching for the horse?

If CNN and other reporters showed up with questions on colored flash cards would Trump answer them?

Putin says he’s invited Trump to Moscow for second meeting. Guess he wants to refresh his memory with another showing of the pee tape?

Why does Fox News keep saying liberals think Trump voters are stupid, when it’s Donald  Trump who CLEARLY really thinks they are stupid.

 

Trump tweets that “The only things the Democrats do well is “Resist,” which is their campaign slogan, and “Obstruct.”
Justice Merrick Garland might disagree.

 

 

How long until Trump claims Omarosa was just the covfefe girl?

Recent Twitter message – but kind of applies to the United States right now -“Something is technically wrong -thanks for noticing. We’re going to fix it and have things back to normal soon.” #BlueWave

As if we didn’t already know Kimberly Guilfoyle was the perfect woman to marry into the Trump family….

“Troy is strong on crime and borders, loves our Military, our Vets and our Second Amendment. He has my full and total Endorsement!”
“John is strong on crime and borders, loves our Military, our Vets and our Second Amendment. He will be a star. He has my full and total Endorsement!”

Two tweets, about 6 minutes apart. Can’t imagine how Trump gets accused of being a clueless braggart with memory issues.
