Re: Proud Parental Unit Crowing Thread
I don't think either of my parents know that I worked a total of 70 days in 2001 (not for a lack of desire). I turned 27 that year, so maybe it was different because I was older.

Re: MLB 2024
Javy Baez is north of the Mendoza Lina for what must be the first time in a year. I know his bat combined with his contract is the massive complaint of the fanbase, but he was north of .200 for almost the last 90% of last year. It feels worse because he has been so weak with the stick this season.
