You know what? The gingerbread man was really an arrogant jerk and deserved to die. #kidlit
I don't know who the Twins closer is.
Nor do I know who the Twins closer is.
Like, who are the people (?) that may or may not be the Twins closer? Are they baseball players or monster trucks or types of pasta or beachfront property or white collar offspring or what?
Also why.
Congrats to @jefftomich on his #TGFBI league win and @RosenJordanBlum for making him antsy with a close 2nd, both in the Top 10 overall. I had to settle for 3rd in league / 31st overall as my AVG (Yordan!) and SB (me!) were doomed from the start. But it was a fun season!
College allegiance is so weird. I graduated from Michigan 20+ yrs ago, and truly don't care or think about U-M sports. Yet here I sit in a parked car and saw a biker thru my side mirror wearing his ETATS OIHO shirt and my gut instinct was "I should open my door and clip this guy"
Not a perfect comp, maybe not even a good comp, but every time I see Otto Lopez swing I think of Jose Altuve
ADP is dumb. Draft-level analytics are smart. Easily 100+ hours of my time over 4 years, available to you in conveniently packaged form from @BaseballHQ for ~$100. Use it!

ADP is lying to you, and has been for some time. Draft-level analytics reveal true fantasy manager behavior!

Seriously @elonmusk as your first informal DOGE effort can you please try to convince DJT that nepotism is bad and he should hire qualified, competent, truth-telling/seeking staff, like you would presumably want in any of your companies? Enough with the in-laws and other buffoons
But if you live in a deep red area you need to think twice before putting up a Harris/Walz sign, because there's just something about that one neighbor that makes you feel ... nervous? No, that's not it. Paranoid? No. Scared, that's it. Scared.
But it's probably fine.
Probably
Before last year I'd never given much thought to @BaseballHQ's #FPAZ event. Was just something coolish-sounding that OTHER ppl did. Then I made the trip, and WOW! So many great ppl + events/talks. Now sadly I again can't go, and now sadly I know what I'm missing! 😔 Have fun all!
I just voted during this election's "Normal Voting" period. Assuming you've already made up your mind, why wait until "Last Chance Voting Day"? Lock it in!

TRUMP TODAY: "I will prosecute my enemies, order mass deportations, use soldiers against citizens, pay politics with natural disasters, and abandon our international allies."
CONSERVATIVES IN 6 MONTHS:
Seriously. Check your reflexes. Ask yourself "Why?", and maybe "What next?". Feel your way through it. Let yourself arrive at the truth: There is only one good option in this election. And it isn't the "man". It's the human.
