SF Giants are now 4-6, but except for one bullpen meltdown, none of the losses have been close. Including tonight’s 9-1 loss against the Dodgers.

In their 6 losses they are averaging less than 2 runs a game, and twice at least have had bases loaded with zero out and not scored.

Forget “Nothing Like It,” maybe the 2023 slogan should be “outhouse or castle.”

If Dianne Feinstein is not doing well but hates idea of Gavin Newsom appointing replacement who’d become 2024 frontrunner…. What about Newsom appointing someone who knows what she’s doing, could hit the ground running, & would step down after finishing the term – ie former Senator Barbara Boxer?

Tyler Rogers for the SF Giants first save of a win at home in 2023. Just like we all predicted.

Line from USA Today “Atop the West since December, the Nuggets got a little bored with the regular season”

Kind of sums up how a lot of fans felt too.

Is it too much of a stretch to think that if MLK Jr was assassinated in Dallas, Greg Abbott would have pardoned James Earl Ray?

After six years, Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn have broken up. Sad for them, but guessing that it means Swifties have an especially good new album to look forward to?

Tampa Bay Rays 9-0, MLB’s best start in decades. Perhaps the Rays will invite Florida Governor Deathsantis to their June Pride Night?

The Washington Nationals right now are one of the worst teams in MLB. Imagine if a liberal donor gave Justice Sotomayor, Brown Jackson or Kagan so much as bleacher seats to a weeknight game.

Clarence Thomas having his pornhub account exposed by Anonymous sounds like an SNL skit.

Someday a trivia question will be “what was Donald Trump’s first indictment.

So the man that wants to lead the Republican party and become President in 2024 is continuing and escalating a fight with the biggest private employer in his state over “don’t say gay” law. Jobs! Jobs! Jobs. #FloridaMan
