I love Emrick.

Another reason I'm happy I don't hang out on Twitter, where I assume he receives criticism? Katie Nolan drafted him as one of her all time favorite voices on All Fantasy Everything recently. Not sure I'd put him in Vin Scully range, but I love listening to him call a game.

Oh Kepa... (evergreen post) Sadly true. How did he completely miss that ball? Gonna say something kind of mean here... He really wimped out on that play. At a minimum, he could've slid both legs stacked at the ball. Even that is pretty dangerous in terms of potential outcomes. I've talked about thi...

If there wasn't football on later, I may have thrown my TV to the floor. Spurs... gonna kill me. Wait. WTF? I stopped watching at half-time. Same. And I had thrown a few quid on Spurs as a 'safe' bet to help my dwindling account. I mean, they were up 3-0 15 minutes into the game. It's one thing to ...

Sometimes you need to come off your line and blow somebody up (legally). So safe to say you're an Ederson fan? I'll be honest and say I've got limited time watching him. Was very impressed with his skill on the ball last time I saw him. This is the first time I've logged significant time watching P...

Much of the right has 1 core platform: and that's owning the libz. You can't reason with them, there will always be something made into a scandal, and the only thing you can do is burn it to the ground (metaphorically, with votes). The whole vibe is like the angry losers in high school. Actually, t...

BTW, regarding polling, this is a bullet from WaPos election roundup today: Biden leads Trump by 11 percentage points nationally, 54 percent to 43 percent, according to an average of national polls since Oct. 4. Biden’s margin is smaller in key states: eight points in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Mic...

Again, why would anyone from the Biden campaign even discuss the possibility of addressing this obviously manufactured story written by a Hannity producer with only Bannon and Giuliani as sources.

They shouldn't and they wont.

Nonlinear FC

Again, if they are bogus why hasn’t Hunter Biden, the Biden Campaign, or anyone else copied on the emails come out and said as much? It’d be pretty easy to determine whether are not they are forgeries and wouldn’t you expect to see a prompt statement to that effect if they weren’t legit? Not sure i...

Also, Chelsea look like a boy band

Yeah, one of the frustrating things about watching and trying to track Pulisic is at least half the squad has the same hair cut, build, and running gait.

The kid from Ajax debuted... Yitech, I think? He's going to be a player to watch.

Chelsea's defense is ridiculous. Watched the game to see how Pulisic looked (pretty good), and got to see all 3 Saints goals come from some level of defensive bullshit.

Entertaining, if nothing else.

I really can't completely abandon Fb, due to work. But I've pretty much given up posting there about personal stuff. Even when I go on a trip... used to put up an album... haven't done that in quite awhile.

I did see a pretty outstanding yard sign yesterday. It read:

Presidents are temporary. Wu-Tang is forever.

Motherfucker, you're half a block away and don't text?

(This also confirms you're off twitter.)

I saw this same sign outside of Easton, MD.

We played full contact football for the Turkey Bowl for about 6 years (high school and into college). That all ended after two guys did their ACL and another got a broken nose. Hella stupid.

So the Senate is investigating the Biden email the NYT broke yesterday.. How much you wanna bet they make some ruling that Biden can't be on the ballot or some shit?

My town has always been Republican, but that has been changing for the past 10 years with more young people moving from NYC to raise families. In 2016, Hillary beat Trump by less than 1% in my town, which was a big surprise as my town always votes Republican. She won huge in my county, only 2 out o...

Drove out to the Eastern Shore this weekend for a nice little getaway. Expected to see a fairly consistent Trump sign presence and was pleasantly surprised. Most of the drive is pretty rural/farm country. I know it's anecdotal, but seeing about 40 percent of the signs being Biden/Harris was a pretty...

Not sure where that guy is getting his "they don't move polls" info. Smells like some bullshit.

Speaking of the Lincoln Project, I was wondering what they were going to do if Trump died. Considering they are all establishment GOP guys, were they going to take all of that money and start pumping it into supporting a potential GOP replacement for Trump?

I know I've said this before, but isn't part of the calculus here is to make the enemy spend resources places where they wouldn't normally?
