Left Coast Sports Babe

Meanwhile, have I said lately how much I love baseball?

–

ESPN reports “Green Bay Packers’ Aaron Rodgers frustrated with drops, inconsistency by young receivers.” How long until he screams at them to get off his lawn?

–

San Diego Padres have canceled Fernando Tatis Jr. bobblehead night, replacing it with a Juan Soto-shirt giveaway. Maybe they could just give the bobbleheads away along with a coupon for ringworm medication?

–

Harriett Hageman – “By our vote today, Wyoming has put the elites on notice.” Please, Ms. Hageman, you were endorsed by a man who bragged about gold-plated toilets on his private jet…

–

Liz Cheney : “Two years ago, I won this primary with 73% of the vote. I could easily have done the same again … But it would have required that I go along with President Trump’s lie about the 2020 election.”

Watching Liz Cheney tonight as a Democrat is a perfect illustration of what Amy Klobuchar meant when she said “Courage is standing next to someone you don’t always agree with for the betterment of the country.”

–

Hard to wrap my head around this: Cheney family has been political royalty in Wyoming for decades. Velveeta Voldemort probably couldn’t find state on a map and didn’t even campaign there in 2020. And yet Wyoming GOP will throw Liz Cheney out on his say-so? It’s a cult.

–

Population of Wyoming: 581,348

Population of my county alone, Santa Clara, only the 6th most populous in California: 1.924 million

Even with a landslide 70% in 2020 Velveeta Voldemort got fewer than 200,000 votes. Don’t let media tell you what “Americans” are thinking.

–

MSNBC points out according to 538, Liz Cheney voted with Velveeta Voldemort 92.9% of the time, more even than Mark Meadows. Liz is no moderate. But she cares about the law. Today’s GOP – Law and order my a**

–

Florida court ruled 16 year old girl is not mature enough to decide to have an abortion. Also Florida: schools that teach sex education must emphasize abstinence. Since that didn’t work will state also order boy who got her pregnant to support child from birth for next 18 years.

–

Do Americans realize, 1 in 50 pregnancies is ecotopic, where the fetus cannot possibly survive, but if left untreated, an ectopic pregnancy can result in life-threatening hemorrhage? The only treatment is either a medical or surgical abortion GOP wants to kill women.

–

After August 31, 2022, Ritz-Carlton Cancun, which opened in 1978 as the first Ritz Carlton outside the US, is leaving the brand. They couldn’t wash the stink off from a certain Senator from Texas?

–

Tuesday night, Cy Young favorites face off Astros ace Justin Verlander, 1.85 ERA, takes on White Sox ace Dylan Cease, 1.96 ERA. So it being baseball it the game will either be a great pitchers’ duel, or they’ll both be knocked out by the 5th inning.

–

Fernando Tatis Sr, complaining about son’s suspension “Millions of fans (will) stop watching baseball now. It’s a total disappointment for something so insignificant.” Speaking of not worth it, w/ $340 million contract, why take so much as aspirin w/out checking w/ team doctors?

–

Lots of apoplectic Yankees fans tonight over their team’s 2-8 record in last 10 games.

NY is ONLY now 10 games ahead of Rays and Blue Jays with 46 to play….

Fans of most other teams in baseball, oh, STFU.

–

If you went to a random MLB baseball game this weekend you went through more security than anyone would have needed to get to classified documents at Mar-A-Lago.

–

Assume someone has told Rudy Giuliani that prison would make even Four Seasons Landscaping look luxurious.

–

At this point the hardest job on Rachel Maddow’s staff has to be whittling down the potential stories to an hour on Monday. So many indictments, so little time.

–

If some liberal teacher in Arizona said President Biden had “BDE,” Kari Lake would demand their immediate firing. And if it happened in Florida, DeSantis would say the heck with tenure & process, and would suspend the teacher himself.

–

“Donald Trump and his supporters have become quite creepy.” – Adam Kinzinger. No lies detected.

–

–

Velveeta Voldemort claiming he wants to help Merrick Garland “turn down the heat” is like an arsonist offering to turn up at the five-alarm fire fire he set with a small leaky water bucket.

–

Rachel Maddow reminds us 5/1 yrs ago we knew White House knew Michael Flynn was being investigated as foreign agent before Velveeta Voldemort chose him as National Security Advisor.

lNew hires need background check & fingerprinting to be bank tellers. When someone tells you who they are..
