  1. Yeah, wife accepted free tickets and I tagged along. We didn't know anything about it. It smelled of bullshit pretty quickly, so I ended up googling this guy's lies and criminal investigations instead of watching it. Just another grifter trying to exploit an issue for personal gain without actually contributing enough to better the world. Shame really, pieces would have made a good 20 minute psa to describe the process of third world country exploitation and transport to richer countries. As a result...we have another "whistleblower" the actual purpose, building American isis
  2. A&M is trending, negatively, on Twitter due to this story.
  3. Wait, so the "famed" aggy network ruined the job prospect of one of their own alumni, who happens to also be a black woman. L-O-L how cliche can aggy be...
  4. They gave me a wrong answer for Jim Abbott as an Angels all star. Pretty sure he was at least once.
  5. ramping up the contraceptive battle
  6. This motherfucker's grift may actually be larger than my cynical mind even imagined.
  7. Big nothingburger. Fortunately, our far right friends will be quite pissed. Unfortunately, our spineless leadership will look to appease them in other, more ridiculous ways and they will fall for it completely.
  8. Bob Feller got me too
  9. 24. Atlanta Braves: Hurston Waldrep, RHP, Florida Who is Waldrep? While many pitchers taken this early in the draft are known for their velocity, it's a devastating split-change that comes to hitters at 85-89 mph and drops sharply just before it gets to home plate that has Waldrep going this high. Although his overall ERA this season was an underwhelming 4.16, look no further than his postseason performance to see why he's so highly regarded. The Florida right-hander struck out 12 batters against UConn in the regional round, followed by 13 against South Carolina over eight scoreless super regional innings, and then K'd 12 Oral Roberts batters over six innings at the College World Series. Why the Braves took him here: Because they've been pretty good in recent years in drafting college pitchers and getting them quickly to the majors (see 2023 All-Stars Spencer Strider and Bryce Elder). From a stuff standpoint, Waldrep is more Strider than Elder, which speaks to the upside here -- besides the splitter, he also hits 99 mph with the fastball. He fanned 156 batters in 101 2/3 innings for the Gators and while the control has to improve, the Braves' track record makes this an intriguing selection.

    Huge, if true. Hope Classics do the right thing and put it back into the club to benefit the kids they serve.
  16. Should we go ahead and put the Supreme Court for a 6-3 vote in support of prosecutors committing crimes and maintaining immunity?
