    Now so far, we have what appears to me to be a series of victimless crimes.

    This. I wish my kids would quit high school soccer and use that time to play a different sport (like track). HS season is just an opportunity to get hurt while playing dumb soccer and unlearning all the good habits developed at a club. But the kids love the camaraderie and school spirit.

    The first step would be to understand that this issue is not even remotely 1,000 years old. A solution is only possible if we can get past propagandists myths.

    Honestly, I’m struggling to think of a former MLB player who went on to do anything even remotely intelligent after retiring. In football, basketball, soccer, and hockey, former players provide insightful color commentary and in-studio analysis. I can’t think of a former baseball player that fills these roles without embarrassing themselves as either drunken clowns (e.g., Mike Shannon) or just plain dumb (e.g., John Kruk, Joe Morgan). Edit: Billy Bean would be an exception. Not all baseball players are dumb. A lot of us grew up playing the sport, and we’re a smart group. But at the high levels, the game just doesn’t seem to attract or develop intelligent players. The stats nerds have ruined the sport, but they understand it far, far better than players. It’s just a weird disconnect because literally no other sport presents that dynamic.

    See, e.g., Dykstra, Lenny.

    That is part of it, but the same is also true of soccer (at least in the US). And in my (and my kids’) experience, baseball players are way dumber and way more MAGA than soccer players, statistically speaking. I think it’s a combo of (a) suburban and (b) dumb. Baseball just doesn’t require much thought.

    Just saw that yesterday was Layne’s birthday. RIP. On another note, I recently realized that Jerry plays a phantom solo that is super low in the mix during the outro chorus to Man in the Box. I can hear it pretty distinctly, but only when played through decent speakers or headphones. It doesn’t show up in guitar iso tracks and none of the on-line tabs or YouTube instructional videos account for it. But it’s there and it gives the outro chorus more depth than the earlier choruses. Or maybe I’m hallucinating.

    Watching this now and the hosts just shut him up and ended the call. Not even Fox wants to hear Trump’s rambling horseshit anymore.

    ADMIRALTY LAW!!!

    Well that depends. Did she say “dumpy fake bake assclown with a weird tiny penis?”

    My folks voted for Trump in 2016. In the 70s, my dad bought and wore a button that said “Leave Nixon Alone!” They were unwilling to vote for any Dem other than Biden in 2020. Now they’re suddenly Yellow Dog Democrats. January 6 shook the scales from their eyes, and they slowly realized left wing policies are actually kind of good for people and maybe assault rifles and being judgy dicks to nice people just because they make different life choices aren’t real Christian values. Ironically enough, Trump saved my parents from Republicanism.

    Same here. My folks were willing to vote for Biden (the first Democrat either of them voted for since my mom cast a protest ballot for Ann Richards). But they are excited to vote for Kamala and Walz.

    To be fair, loving and feeling proud of your dad probably seems weird to damaged dude like Ann Coulter. That guy just screams “daddy issues.”

    Allred’s messaging reminds me of the 1980’s SNL Texas gubernatorial ad spoofs where the candidates all bragged that they would execute more prisoners than their opponents.

    Is that some kind of Russian cliche?

    Let’s play a game: how many consecutive insufferable posts can Anastasis make on this thread without getting a single positive rep?

    And tonight’s theme of Republicans for Kamala continues with Bill Clinton.

    Jeffries is Costcobama.

    Dems need to resume their duty as champions of labor. Because it would be good for the party, but more importantly because it would be good for the country.

    Not sure “I support Kamala because she stands for my conservative Republican values” is a very persuasive message for Democrats.
