  1. They're saying 45 minutes after the tarp comes off. Don't know when that happens. Meanwhile, I've got Star Trek and Svengoolie to keep me awake.
  2. Remembering the days of Bert 'be home' Blyleven.
  3. Per Berardino: Buxton rode the exercise bike for 35 minutes with no issues in his bruised right knee.
  4. As a non-believer in jinxes, I'll just hope Nolasco has a good start.
  5. I expect (read: hope) that Vargas will be rising.
  6. Nunez limping a little now, too.
  7. 1967 World Series, St. Louis and Boston. Bob Gibson and Jim Lonborg.
  8. More officers targeted in Georgia, Tennessee, and Missouri. Don't know if there are any casualties. Here is some info. http://time.com/4399366/georgia-man-police-officer-shooting/
  9. One of my Facebook buddies said it's feeling like 1968 again, and I agree. For those of you were not around in those days, here is a sampler of the critical events of that single year: http://www.cnn.com/2014/07/31/us/1968-important-events/ Note that Denny McLain's 31-6 season couldn't crack the list.
  10. So now that I've so rudely help cause the creation of a new thread, what to say in it? Seeking some kind of legal/social solution is probably the real long-term solution, but I'm no good at that. Instead, I'm going to suggest a technological band aid. Invest a buttload of money into producing the most effective non-lethal weapons possible, and distribute them to all domestic law enforcement agencies. Something so effective that it will become a superior choice to firearms. And can be produced with such an economy that even the gun industry realizes they can safely make a buck and starts to change production. This is all because I have far more confidence in the ability to innovate technologically than to make social change. But the former is still just a band aid while the latter is put into action. Never promised you a rose garden.
  11. No, I understand; my hope too is that change results. But my feeling is the same deep pessimism some of the other folks express towards the Twins. A deep hole without egress.
  12. Point taken.
  13. Is this going to become another version of the elections thread? I don't believe that was the original intent.
  14. We live in a war zone. Great sympathies to the family and friends of the slain officers. This will not end well for anyone. Except maybe the vendors of bullets (again).
  15. Bremer with a beard. Nah. Might mistake him for Bert.
  16. A little pop fly out of the park.
  17. Red dog would be smelling them tonight.
