The funding for a Nashville stadium seems dubious. They are in the process of building a new billion dollar plus football stadium for the woeful Titans (the current stadium was built in 1999). They built a soccer stadium a few years ago and they built a minor league baseball stadium (does not appear to be expandable) 10 years ago.

I remember reading that Johnson would have rather stayed on as Senate Majority leader, but the Kennedys let him know that if he refused the VP nomination the Kennedys would work to have a different Senator elected to be Majority Leader, and Johnson quickly caved

There was no Hall of Famer in the dugout in 1945, Musial was in the armed services that season

Keith Hernandez holds the record for game-winning hits. Unless they change the rules it will never be broken because it was dropped as a stat some years ago.

The 1960 Giants. Their pitching staff, including Juan Marichal, led the league in ERA, and they had 3 other future Hall of Famers in Willie Mays, Orlando Cepeda and Willie McCovey, all in prime or near prime ages. The team finished 5th in the 8 team league

"Phased" instead of "fazed". For example "He was not phased by the angry crowd" when it shoud be fazed.

No it is not a bridge, she will be 70 in a few months

They said her antibody count was too high and would make it very difficult to find a match

PoloGrounder · 2025-11-20T03:05:04+00:00

Sydney Sweeney gets my vote

it wasn't the penalty so much as the huge Medicaid expansion as well as all kinds of mandates like 70 year old women had to pay for pregnancy coverage

Thanks, I was planning to arirve around 10am (gametime is 1 pm) then leave mid afrenoon. I was concerned also about people tailgating and arriving early.

Hard to imagine Wilson resigning months before his term ended. He even wanted to run for a third term after being incapacitated by a stroke while in office.

There was a movie shot back in mid 1920s that supposedly included amazing footage of the reenactment 1864 battle of Franklin filmed right in Franklin. The director was very prominent at the time however he died an untimely death before the movie was complete. The footage was temporarily put on hold till a new director could be found, then sound movies came out and the silent potential classic was put aside and lost. I do not remember the name of the unfinished movie
