Baseball hot potatoes?

June 6, 2023

I don’t want them, you take them.

Apparently over 70% of Nevadans don’t want the Oakland A’s with the current proposed stadium.

Maybe with the NHL Golden Knights doing so well, Las Vegas is thinking….we don’t need a minor league baseball team .

The Miami Heat came back and beat the Denver Nuggets Sunday night to tie the NBA Finals 1-1

And now game three is… Wednesday?

Maybe it’s just me, and of course the league (and ABC/ESPN) were wishing for Celtics-Lakers. But three days between games? Seems like even people who suddenly started paying attention to the Finals may lose interest again by then.

Stanford baseball made it through the loser’s bracket, again, and advanced to the NCAA Super Regional, with 3 wins in about 3 hours, the last two against Texas A&M. #CardiacCar

Meanwhile the Stanford women’s softball team fell just short, losing in extra innings to Oklahoma

The Sooners have won 51 games in a row. 51 games in a row?!! If they were a men’s team with that kind of dominance they’d be regular front page headlines.

Tim Scott says systemic racism is not a thing?

Has he listened to his friend Cory Booker? Remember an interview where Cory said if Senate works late he stays in his suit to walk home from US Capitol, even in hot Washington summers.


Because he doesn’t feel comfortable as big black man walking in T-shirt and shorts on DC streets late at night

A flooded computer server room with where surveillance videos were kept? If President Biden just said a single classified document had been rendered illegible by melted ice cream GOP would call it an impeachable offense.

So Ron Deathsantis is now running a campaign in which he is trying to convince Americans that the COVID virus was no big deal, but the “woke mind” virus is dangerous. Over 1.1 million Americans would beg to differ. If they could.

When the next big hurricane hits Florida (and statistically the state gets over 40% of all US hurricane), imagine if FEMA responded with reduced aid because of all the money DeathSantis has wasted on flying asylum seekers to other states.

Tonight it’s Ty Cobb. Someday there will be a special DSM page devoted to the psychosis that people still have thinking THEY will be the one person Donald Trump won’t throw under the bus.

Seriously at this point why would anyone agree to be his lawyer?

Apparently Casey Desantis doesn’t like the term “Walmart Melania.” So none of us should use it.

Media rant time.

Simply put, most big businesses from beverage companies, to retail, to restaurants -even banks, care about diversity & support LGBTQ community. Companies like Disney & Anheuser-Busch & Target are mainstream now. Not outliers. But media won’t say that. Fear or chasing clicks?

Meanwhile, in 2019-20 as Dems competed to be nominee, Trump’s outrageousness was still dominating headlines. Now as Donald has competition for GOP title of most outrageous, President Biden quietly does his job well… & gets few headlines. Unless Joe trips or misspeaks.
