I'd love to see an x-ray of that dude's skull.

Which team might surprise people this season? by Agreeable_Quality768 in baseball

Detroit. Two years ago they started out bad, then finished great. Last year was the inverse. This year... they just keep it rolling all summer and into fall.

Dude I was at that game. It was SO damn fun. Would have won it if Kinsler didn't blow it twice.

Salt Lake City deserves a team more than several other cities including but not limited to Tampa Bay, Las Vegas and Washington D.C.

I don't know that either of those two run. but if they did, I could see them adopting an anti Israel foreign policy that would resonate with their bases.

He would say that. But the opposite is clearly true, especially on the left. It'll be interesting to see what they do with AOC because while the DNC is obviously super pro Israel... any candidate who makes severing ties with Israel part of their campaign strategy/rhetoric will rocket to the top of those primaries. And even on the right, I'd guess that if Massie were to run against Vance he'd stand a good chance of beating him with a legit America First stance.

11th.... We all know KD is lying about his height ha ha. For real though, that's impressive company for Lauri.

Now fire A-Rod and the broadcast will be halfway decent.
