Confess I liked that Gabe Kapler was up front about being a Democrat, but admit his teams, other than in 2021, had pretty mediocre records.

Someone pointed out Bob Melvin’s record after playing 129 games is currently 65-64, while Kapler’s record last year after playing 129 games was 66-63.

Mike Krukow said “the strikeout bug is affecting the SF Giants right now.” Uh, the strikeout bug in 2024 for the SF Giants isn’t a bug, it’s the baseball equivalent of long COVID..

Cory Booker, former varsity football player at Stanford talks about their being “coaches we’d run through a wall for.” Tim Walz was clearly one of those coaches..

Tim Walz on Project 2025. Trump & Vance “spent a lot of time pretending they know nothing about this. But I coached high school football for a long time. Trust me on this, when somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they’re going to use it.”

From Amy Klobuchar to his former students to his family, we learned tonight that people who really know Tim Walz really love Tim Walz. Is there a better thing you can find out about a human being?

Bill Clinton says he’s triple checked it . “Since the end of the Cold War in 1989, American has created about 51 million new jobs. What’s the score? Democrats 50, Republicans 1.”

(and USA Today fact checker agrees)

Dana Nessel, attorney general of Michigan, talking about freedom, includng freedom to love who we choose. “I have a message for Republicans & justices of SCOTUS You can pry this wedding band from my cold dead gay hand…” Joyful with no f*cks to give is a good look for Dems.

Former Georgia Lt. Governor Geoff Duncan nails it in speaking to his fellow Republicans tonight.

“You vote for Kamala Harris in 2024, you’re not a Democrat, you’re a patriot.”

Yes, there have been some arrests near DNC in Chicago. But overall the convention has been joyful inside and relatively calm outside. National media, not just Fox News, is acting disappointed.

GOP Swiftboated Purple Heart winner John Kerry over his service

Trump derided John McCain over his service.
