Keeping Tellez around a few extra days instead of an extra reliever made a lot of sense.
Still a bunch of stuff has to go wrong to lose that game, but still...

Again, I found myself in down a wormhole with truck prices. A local Chevy dealership has one non-crewcab RWD Silverado 1500. It's the W/T trim level, which literally means work truck. Vinyl seats, rubber flooring, small tires. $38K. Like **** off. That truck was $18K ten years ago. https://www.palme...

Grandal left the game after his trip around the bases in the ninth, so Hank could be back up sooner rather than later.

What is it called when a gas station chain advertises one price in the morning and it mysteriously rises by 28 cents for afternoon rush hour? These stations (Circle K) seem to do this a lot here. The other stations prices stayed basically the same.

I read, but couldn't confirm, that it was a 1979 (pre-embargo) Bell helicopter. Why they would have their president flying in a 45 year old helicopter without a secure replacement parts supply chain in place doesn't make much sense. Why not get a Russian or French helicopter?

I was excited about Davis' two homers, then read they were off a position player pitching. Ugh.

My dad was halfway through organizing his 45s when he went into the hospital last year. I helped him with some of it, which was very cool listening to his memories of the songs and artists. We took a handful after my mom died and we cleaned out the house, but haven't had the heart to really sit and ...

Just added my 15 year old to our car insurance policy. It was $533 a month for the three of us with three cars, now with 4 drivers and 3 cars, it will be $740 a month. Good times.

That was from a hail storm up there. It's probably vinyl siding, which is popular down here because it's cheap.

I remember destructive tornados and then being told "oh, noooo, those were actually microbursts" as if the flattened house cared if there actually was a funnel or not.

That's all my kids do on Madden and MLB the Show, are MUT and trading cards or the equivalent. They don't build teams and only recently do they build a player in The Show. It's all completing challenges to get fantasy players or whatever it's called. Very shallow imo, but they are the target demo.

Maybe it's my old ears, but the sound quality from a SiriusXM car unit is poor. Like at best CD quality, which sounds tinny and processed compared to Apple Music. Someone on LGP gave out their login/password info years ago, and I still use the app from time to time. App quality is a little better, b...

Looks like FX wants to do at least one more season of Shogun.
