A massive abandoned illegal bicycle chop shop in the middle of a public park. Several hundred bikes were left and thousands of parts. This land is owned by the state and managed by the county and unless they are blind, there is no way they didn’t notice.

The Jazz hiring Austin Ainge reminded me of 1981, when Scott Layden became a scout for the team. Scott, who has wonderfully dry sense of humor, was asked about being hired by his father, Frank. Straight-faced, he replied, “I firmly believe in nepotism.”

I wasn’t a Super Star that’s for sure but I was a student of the game and I knew how to play! I played at time when the TEAM was more important than the individual. We were taught to respect the game and our opponents. We didn’t celebrate every hit with a hand gesture or dance

A team given little to no chance. A creative team that featured a Professor taking photos, One SID running social, the other SID doing video. A coaching staff whose budget is 3x less than Ole Miss. Didn’t matter. Murray State Baseball overcame. Together.

Correct. Fredi was Bobby’s 3B coach from 2003-06 and succeeded him as mgr from 2011-16. Snit was Fredi’s 3B coach from 2011-13 and succeeded him as mgr in ‘16, a season during which Tui played for Snit with Gwinnett and for Fredi w/ Atlanta (3 games). Memorize it. Test tomorrow

Here's an example of what I'm talking about. None of the bullets recovered from the pantry victims or EVEN THE WALLS matched Sirhan's gun. NONE of them. No opinion that he fired shots trumps that very solid evidence that whatever else Sirhan was doing, he wasn't firing bullets.

"Oh yeh, that's going on" (edit) In May, Ric Bucher, on his "On The Ball" pod, said that there is a common belief amongst NBA players, coaches, & personnel that LeBron BEEN juicing. Dude been juicing for 15+ years and EVERYBODY KNOWS. Told you. #OPENTHEVAULT

I just don't understand how the Atlanta Braves can never go outside the organization for help. A fresh perspective to try and maximize this team's talent. 2023 seems like such an anomaly. This team can't win without the homerun. Never has enough pitching and now the approach is stale.

Fryedaddy/Frito They just don't understand it Jeff. It's the new normal and it's sadly permeated every sport. The thing is most of the fans aren't even watching. They are talking or on their phones. Drives me nuts when a guy gets a hit and the only thing he's worried about it his reaction to his

And the way to do this is to create publicly funded elections, provide candidates free airtime, and ban all political advertising of any kind!!!

How remarkable is what we witnessed this weekend in Corvallis? The full list of teams that *didn't* start their regional 2-0, yet went on to win it: 1. Oregon State Yep. Of the 48 teams that started either 0-1 or 1-1, only ONE won their regional. And it was Oregon State Baseball.
