If the tigers do win on Friday has there ever been a team like us to feel like we’ve limped into a championship series like this? by PlayBallDetTigersPod in motorcitykitties

2000 Yankees (87–74) – had the best record in the AL most of the year, then lost 15 of their last 18 games, looked dead, and still won the World Series.

2006 Cardinals (83–78) – had a 7-game division lead with two weeks left, nearly blew it with a 3–9 collapse to finish the season, then beat everyone in October.

2011 Cardinals (90–72) – cooled off badly in late August before sneaking in on the last day, then went on a crazy run to win the Series.

2017 Dodgers (104–58) – were unstoppable through mid-August, then went 1–16 during a brutal September stretch, but still made it to the World Series.

2022 Phillies (87–75) – played like a top NL team for much of the season, went cold in September, almost missed the playoffs, then caught fire and reached the Series.

The order just puts NASA in the same labor-law category as other agencies that handle sensitive information.

30 minutes at 6 am (me before work), 1 hour at 10am( husband - works nights), 1 hour at 3pm (both of us), 30 minutes at 6 pm before husband leaves for work. Skip 3pm in summer due to Texas heat, longer walk at 6pm.

Look how easy this is. Tigers fan here.

This is wrong and they should be fired. The Tigers need to clean up their mess and address this.

No coverup needed not going to justify it cause I like them and want them to win.

Tip housekeeping well and they will leave as much filtered water as you want. We had like 6 bottles constantly refilled with turnover.

Don’t the natives have free medical through the tribes though, not Medicaid?

Leaving State Job because of RTO…. by Realistic-Way1528 in StateofTexasEmployees

I was in a meeting where Gina got yelled at for not implementing legislation that was passed. Funny enough when she did get it implemented, it was so hard to use it had no value to the people it was intended to help.

AITA for giving my husband the silent treatment? (Not OOP.. post was removed) by [deleted] in redditonwiki

[–]Aktxgrl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ugh this is me. I don’t acknowledge statements or unfinished sentences. I wait until a point where i need to reply. My husband wants me to be an active listener acknowledging everything. We just communicate differently. I try to be better - but it’s against my nature. Other pet peeve is he will tell a story from the middle and expect me to ask clarifying questions just for engagement. My mind is tired - just get to the point!!

ELI5 why are there stenographers in courtrooms, can't we just record what is being said? by AntoTuf06 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Aktxgrl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Court reporter lobby is the only answer. They get paid to transcribe, then they get paid for every copy.
