Logan Webb ranks dead last with 3.14 runs on average per start, the 2023 fewest runs per start average in Major League Baseball. In women’s terms, he gets less support than we do with that 20 year old bra in the back of our drawer.

Random factoid as of tonight

NY Mets are 61-73

NY Yankees are 65-68

And ESPN gives both of them the same change to make the playoffs on August 31. 0.2%

(And yes, the Yankees have a better record, but they ARE in a league with both the As and the Royals. Two teams who could reach the 100 loss marker by the 2nd weekend in September.

Sports provides good life lessons.

For those who can’t understand how a favorite politician can sponsor a bill with someone with VERY different views, I give you being SF Giants fan now. And painfully but certainly have been rooting for LA Dodgers against AZ Dbacks because of wild card.

–

And there are many reasons I am an Amy Klobuchar fan, but as a sportswriter’s daughter and hardcore sports fan herself, I know Amy has made this sort of devil’s bargain many times herself for the Twins, Vikings and Minnesota Gophers.

–

WTAF CNN? They interviewed young woman who ignored evacuation order in Florida. She stayed, posted video on Tik Tok, is smiling & talking about all her views & messages. So they’re rewarding stupidity where she risked not only her own life but probably lives of 1st responders.

–

President Biden saying he’s spoken to all Governors affected by Hurricane Idalia – DeSantis, Kemp, McMaster, and Cooper. Joe says he offered DeSantis all possible help AHEAD of the storm. Also says he is laser-focused on Maui recovery. It’s so nice having a President.

–

And now Desantis is making headlines because he found time to crack, “If you loot we shoot.” He STILL hasn’t thanked President Biden.

Fox News headline “Biden cracks snarky joke when asked about Trump’s historic mugshot” “Handsome guy, wonderful guy.” Wait, so Fox News thinks it has to be a snarky joke to refer to the Former Guy has “handsome?” Don’t tell Donald Trump.

–

Anyone else catch that in talking about deaths from Idalia, DeSantis immediately pivoted to say some deaths this week might not be DIRECTLY because of storm & so would not be counted? Same plan to lie as with COVID, undercounting so it doesn’t reflect badly on him.

–

His staffers didn’t seem that panicked today. Have to ask, how many times has Mitch McConnell frozen recently when the cameras WEREN’T on him?

Yep, Feinstein is frail, but by comparison… And your reminder, Dianne Feinstein cannot retire because Mitch McConnell (or his handlers) said he would not allow Democrats to replace her on the Senate Judiciary Committee..

–

Mitch McConnell, besides being Minority Leader is also on Senate Agriculture, Appropriations & Rules Committees. Imagine GOP outrage IF he retires and Dems won’t allow them to replace him on committees – as GOP says they won’t do with Feinstein on Judiciary.

–

No pettiness too small. Fox News “Biden to observe upcoming 9/11 anniversary in Alaska in departure from tradition.” Fox thinks Joe should be in DC or NY. But no mention of Trump’s lie ON 9/11 “40 Wall Street was 2nd tallest building in downtown Manhattan & now it’s tallest!”

So if all these MAGA sheep are going to follow their leader in WE WILL NOT COMPLY with COVID restrictions, I trust they will also not comply with any doctor who suggests they go to the hospital when they do inevitably get sick.
