The A's just did one of the coolest things I've seen in their broadcast: Just unfiltered audio of the live director calling a Lawrence Butler plate appearance...that went about as well as they could have hoped for.

The five Simpsons lines I've uttered the most

5)It's a little dirty/slimy/airborne. It's still good

4)Don't say revenge, don't say revenge

3)Give him the breathalyzer

2)I call the big one bitey

1)Take that Lisa's beliefs!
The five Simpsons lines I’ve uttered most:

5) Milhouse: My Dad’s a pretty big wheel down at the cracker victory

4) McBain: Ice To See You

3) You Don’t Get Friends with Salad

2) Homer: And who can forget rat boy?

1) Comic Book Guy: “Is there a word in Klingon for lonliness? Oh yes. ‘Aag-plach!’”

Skubal's departure from the Detroit Tigers gives more credence to El-Sayed's arguments that we are living in a corporate oligarchy. Then again, also gives credence to Stevens' argument that Michigan is being victimized by coastal elites.
This was a prospect trade situation, not a highest $$$$ situation. Other teams like the brewers could have beaten the dodgers’ offer and gone all in on trying to win this year with Miz and Skubal but chose not to.
I am begging you not to believe gazillionaire baseball owners when they tell you Skubal going to the Dodgers means we need a salary cap. Competitive balance is not the reason they want a salary cap.

They just want to spend less, and with more predictability, on total payroll. That is all.

Intelligence assessments say that Iran retains most of its missile sites, launchers, and uranium. A racist, alcoholic, woman-beating former Fox News host says that all of these were obliterated by kinetic lethality. For presidents busy designing ballrooms, it can be hard to know who to trust.

It's a shame that "defend your culture" always means "hate strangers different from you" and never "enact anti-pollution laws so that you can go fishing with your grandkids the way your grandpa taught you."

Of all the painful things about last year's Bonnaroo cancellation, not getting to stand in a field under the stars singing Unwritten with 20,000 of my newest friends may hurt the most.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Rand Paul: "There has to be an investigation. I don't know who trusts an investigation done by DHS when they're the ones calling this person an 'assassin,' a 'domestic terrorist,' saying he was assaulting police. How can they be in charge of an independent investigation? Something's got to happen."

I continue to be surprised by how much I'm agreeing with Paul lately
Rand Paul on ICE: "I don't want to defund ICE, but I'm not sure I want to give them billions and billions more without any signs of there will be rules of the game and there will be an independent investigation"

Want to clarify some common trends I’m seeing from Michigan fans re: Bryce year 1

1) A dedicated QB coach at CFB level is relatively new idea since relaxation of “analysts” role. Vast majority of time before that was the OC. Would argue even in current climate, starter will spend most time with OC
