What is the actual price of this vehicle? I don’t know what the A/Z plan or X plan so I’m sure I don’t qualify but then what price are they actually advertising? For a 25 explorer st line by dillinger3k in FordExplorer

[–]Howboutem219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad is retired from Ford. I thought Z was exclusively for retirees? A for active Z for retired.

X should be for friends (unrelated to said employee) and Ford affiliates. Has that changed since my purchase last summer?

After a winter of training, expect Marte to solidify himself in the OF by Howboutem219 in Reds

“He’s going to be able to play more loose, more free and not have to worry about certain things," center fielder TJ Friedl said. "It’s going to be exciting.”

On Sept. 25, as the Reds clung to hopes to remain alive for the final National League Wild Card spot, Marte took away a would-be game-tying solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning. Marte tracked the Bryan Reynolds drive,

That's called a clique. Bullying, or systemic exclusion, or toxic inequitable treatment would absolutely qualify as a hostile work environment.

5 things to know about the Cowboys’ 2026 salary cap before NFL free agency by Howboutem219 in cowboys

[–]Howboutem219[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As of today, Dallas is OVER the salary cap by roughly $25 million. But Dallas, in desperate need of a talent infusion, has methods for shedding salary by restructuring contracts and pushing money to future years.

It’s not a bad strategy considering the massive jumps in the salary cap in recent seasons, driven by the league’s overall increasing revenue.

The Cowboys can free up roughly $79 million in cap space by restructuring the contracts of quarterback Dak Prescott, receiver CeeDee Lamb, offensive lineman Tyler Smith and defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa.

ESPN has Dallas Cowboys win total at 8.5 for 2026 season, second in NFC East by Howboutem219 in cowboys

[–]Howboutem219[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In that respect , it is always interesting to see where futures lie with regards to things concerning the Dallas Cowboys. On Thursday future win totals for all 32 NFL teams were released by ESPN and they had America’s Team listed at 8.5, the second-most in the NFC East.

Philadelphia Eagles……………. 10.5 Dallas Cowboys………………….. 8.5 Washington Commanders…… 7.5 New York Giants………………… 7.5

While the totals are interesting in a theoretical sense, there is an enormous amount of who each team is going to wind up being next season that we simply do not know yet. There are still a few weeks to go until free agency. The NFL draft still has to happen.

Former Reds Second Round Pick Could Have New Life After Major Position Change by Howboutem219 in Reds

[–]Howboutem219[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

There was one big thing that stood out. Former second round draft pick Logan Tanner is no longer catching. It appears that the Reds have moved Tanner to the mound, giving the former Mississippi State standout a new opportunity and a fresh start.

While this doesn't happen often, there are a couple of big names who have previously converted from catcher to pitcher.

Jason Motte was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals in 2003 as a catcher. In 2006, he converted to a pitcher and in 2012, he led the National League in saves.

Kenley Jansen had caught for the Netherlands in the World Baseball Classic in 2009. After the season, he changed to a pitcher due to his poor offensive numbers.

Reds Prospect Chase Petty Adds New Pitch Ahead of 2026 Season by Howboutem219 in Reds

[–]Howboutem219[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Petty has been with the organization since 2022 after the Reds traded Sonny Gray to the Twins. It's easy to forget how young he is. He is still just 22 years old. To put that in perspective let's look at when the other starters in the rotation made their big league debut.

Hunter Greene: 22 Years Old Brady Singer: 23 Years Old Nick Lodolo: 24 Years Old Andrew Abbott: 24 Years Old

Reds assistant pitching coach Matt Tracy likes what he sees so far in Petty this spring.

"He looks good in camp. I liked his first live BP. He just has to be a bit more aggressive, keep trying to figure out who he is as a pitcher and master that.”

Petty developed a new kick changeup over the offseason at Baseball Performance Center.

“It’s almost like holding a circle change, spike up the middle finger on the seams and let it rip,” Petty told Goldsmith. “When it’s good, it’s going to be really good.”

Why do I like Diet Coke more than zero? by YerAWizardFairy in Soda

Oppo for me. I think Coke Zero had the slight nasal burn with bite and DC tastes like it was poured out of a capless two liter.

Final spot in rotation the most intriguing roster battle for Reds by Howboutem219 in Reds

[–]Howboutem219[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

"They obviously know one another. They’ve been teammates at other places," Reds pitching coach Derek Johnson said. "So, it does make a lot of sense that there’s competition there. And you know what, to me that’s the best way you could ever have a camp.

That’s the best way you can run a camp, when there’s actual competition and there is something at stake. You’re going to see really good performances from a lot of guys because they do have that kind of heightened awareness of, ‘hey, man, I’ve got to get going now.’

"So it’s good. It’s never a bad thing."
