RIP Stretch

October 31, 2018

I was a Tigers fan growing up but impossible not to recognize the greatness of Willie McCovey.
At least he got to see the Dodgers lose one more World Series.

 

Maybe tomorrow in baseball heaven the ball will be at least a single.

1-6 Raiders against 1-7 49er tomorrow night on TNF. Was someone at NFL prescient when they scheduled it for “Day of the Dead?”

Los Angeles Lakers hung on for a 114-113 win tonight.  Well, Lebron and company may not make the playoffs, but they at least have as many wins as the Cleveland Browns.

 

 

Forget the anthem issue. Wonder if Colin Kaepernick STILL thinks voting doesn’t matter?

Now Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp has backed out of last governor’s debate against Stacey Abrams on Sunday. Guess he’s too busy trying to disenfranchise more voters?

Is today a good day to point out that Don Jr, Eric and Ivanka were all born before their mother was a US citizen?

 

Trump says getting rid of 14th amendment should be no different than Obama’s DACA executive order.
Uh, does Donald forget how much he criticized the DACA order and has been trying to overturn it?

Op-ed today in Washington Post called Trump’s plan to end birthright citizenship “unconstitutional.” Not surprising. Except it this was written by George Conway – Kellyanne’s husband. And you think your family Thanksgiving might be awkward?

 

Maybe Donald Trump is really sending troops to Texas so he can claim to his followers that he actually WILL visit a war zone.

Apparently right-wing groups want to “help” protect the border and U.S. Border Patrol is warning Texas landowners that it expects “possible armed civilians” to come onto their property.
What could POSSIBLY go wrong?

Am thinking if you have even slightly tanned or dark skin and you’re planning a fall vacation, might be a good idea to avoid the American Southwest.

 

Guessing my readers don’t need the reminder, but pass it on: If you’re outraged and don’t vote YOU are complicit.
