Youth and skill

June 5, 2026

Don’t look now, but Bryce Eldridge is batting .293

And the SF Giants, one of the worst teams in MLB, have the most grand slams in MLB – now six!

Baseball is a very strange game…

His game winner didn’t go in. But if anyone else has tried that last shot fans would be screaming “why didn’t they give it to Wemby?”

As Molly Ivins book title said. “You got to dance with them that brung you”

Spurs finished the 1st quarrter with a higher percentage (13-20) on field goals than free throws (4-8) Basketball can be a funny game. (and as it turned out, a couple of those FTs would have mattered.)

Last night while Senate Vote-a-rama continued towards dawn in DC, Adam Schiff introduces a 430am amendment

“No payment shall be authorized that arises out of a claim from a President or a Vice President”

Does anyone here believe this slush fund is a good idea?

It was voted down

GOP profiles in cowardice.

Hey media

Not a Platner fan, but why is he a nonstop story and not Ken Paxton’s being impeached on TWENTY charges by a GOP led-Texas legislature, securities fraud charges and his wife’s filing for divorce on “biblical grounds?”

Yes, Dems need to flip some GOP US Senate seats.

But while most Americans know who Graham Platner is, few have heard of Josh Turek.

Nice job media.

Also he’s working class Navy vet, former National guard member, mechanic & former union leader at Kellogg’s plant. Andhe’s been married 25 years with 3 kids.

So why isn’t media talking about Dan Osborn? Who could win.

A Nebraska Senate seat counts as much as one from Maine.

Remember constantly of what Amy Klobuchar said in 2024 of some Trump voters – in Fox News/right wing social media bubble they hear nonstop negatives on Dems. And NOTHING negative on Donald.

Wonder how many millions of MAGA don’t even know he falls asleep regularly on camera.

And the hits just keep on coming

SF Giants manage to lose 16-2 then 8-3 to the Milwaukee Brewers

Then they (barely) hold on to win 1-0 and (barely) hold on to win 12-9. In the same week

Baseball is a weird game.

Meanwhile Donald Trump has decided he will go to game 3 of the NBA finals, and while he says he is a Knicks fan he mentions none of their players but does mention Wemby as a great player

Now as a Spurs fan I must say this is one of the few times I actually agree with Donald.

But uh, Victor Wembanyama is FRENCH. How’s MAGA gonna take that

Short term memory is the first to go.

How close are we to having some reporter asking Trump about his favorite player on the Knicks now and Donald responding “Patrick Ewing”?

Trump seems so obsessed with attacking Kaitlin Collins these days you’d think she turned him down for a date.

Jimmy Kimmel pointed out tonight that one of six statements made at every meeting open to the press is his adminstration/cabinet praising Trump.

“Say what you will about Bill Clinton, when he had hid staff “bleep” him he didn’t make us watch.”

When old male cats get dementia some of them start spraying everywhere – due to combined confusion and a perceived need to marking terrority. Sounds like what Donald’s doing in DC with his signs and monuments. #TrumpPromenade

Trump seems so obsessed with attacking Kaitlin Collins these days you’d think she turned him down for a date.

So many posts about US Senate race & probable Democratic Candidate in Maine.

Can we start paying attention to OTHER races and candidates that matter?

These lesser known people in red states can WIN.

Mary Peltola
Josh Turek
Dan Osborn


Not to mention Sherrod Brown
