Left Coast Sports Babe

Fernando Tatis and Manny Machado had an altercation in the clubhouse last weekend that ended up televised. Today Tatis Jr. said: “It happened, it’s part of baseball, it’s a part this game brings out, especially when good players are trying to win and stuff is not going our way. At the end of the day, I’m glad it happened. I feel like that makes us stronger.”

Since Padres are now five games out of second wild card, does this mean “stronger for October golf team games.”

SF Giants Lamonte Wade Jr. on the Dodgers winning every night “We can’t control what those guys do. We’re just trying to go day in and day out and focus on what we have to do to be successful.” Not a bad sports, or life strategy.

–

500 female athletes urging SCOTUS to reject Mississippi law to ban abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy. On top of everything else, women who’ve competed or trained seriously in sports know menstrual cycles can become irregular, making it harder to realize they’re pregnant.

CNN analysis “Average rate of Covid-19 deaths in 10 least vaccinated states was more than four times higher over past week than rate in 10 most vaccinated states.” Once again, math, along with science, has a liberal bias.

Facebook VP in Senate Judiciary hearing trying to act like data is just about creating better experiences for users, and not about profitability and selling that data. Clearly they’re just in the rainbows and unicorns business.

–

Misinformation op-ed alert – “Vaccine mandates are “promoted as essential for stopping spread of Covid-19, though evidence suggests it won’t.” My Pillow guy? No. Joseph Ladapo – who Ron DeSantis just made Surgeon General for Florida.

–

New Harris poll – “50% of vaccinated respondents ‘extremely’ or ‘considerably’ hesitant about being around unvaccinated people over holidays. (12% said everyone is vaccinated.) Dear airlines – as travel agent can I suggest if you want to bring back business, add vaccine mandate..

–

Tom Cotton attacking President Biden for not calling the Taliban a “terrorist organization.” Funny, I don’t remember Cotton’s outrage when the Former Guy made a deal with the Taliban and invited them to Camp David.

–

So neither Liz Cheney nor Adam Kinzinger voted to raise the debt ceiling. I repeat, the worst Democrat is better than the “best” Republican.

Tonight Stephen Colbert on @colbertlateshow “If you want to see functioning democracy, just look north. because yesterday w/ very little drama, Canadians re-elected PM Justin Trudeau. Trudeau called election in August, which led to a 36 day campaign…” Oh Canada!

Former Guy apparently filed suit against the New York Times & his niece over the 2018 tax records story. In all seriousness, how do you get any kind of decent lawyers when you don’t pay any of your bills, legal and otherwise?
