Not pretty, but NBC's 17-hour stealer knob-slobbing fest broadcast ended appropriately. LOL

Should have been enshrined in the HOF as long as he was out of baseball. Wherever he's headed now he's probably sliding in face first into Ty Cobb's spikes.

Dorance is much more versatile than Sam Williams, though. He seemed like a guy they should keep around for depth and quality reps in different spots. Put Cooks in KC's offense and suddenly he'll look like a steal for a 4th rounder.

Mid-season trades to a team in need of help after a couple of key long-term injuries are a bit different. The Chiefs made a terrible trade in mid 2022 trading away comp 3rd and a 6th for the most brittle and underachieving (but allegedly promising, lol) WR in the league, Kadarius Toney. They cut him before the season after he averaged 2 catches per game for them when he wasn't injured. They are probably even more desperate now as the Chiefs offense has been sluggish after losing two of their top targets and their top RB. Cooks still probably owns a myth of being productive past reality.

I think Dorance Armstrong is a guy Dallas really misses right now. I hated to lose him in free agency.

The Cowboys should see what they could get from KC in a trade for Brandin Cooks. He's that guy that gets traded when teams need an experienced above-average receiver that can help. He has never been the stud he has been made out to be. if they could get a 3 or 4, or maybe a backup player in a position of need for depth and has some contract left after this season, then pull the trigger. Promote Brooks up a notch and roll with it. I'm not trying to throw in the towel on the season, but there are times when you need to use your chips before they gone, and this is one of them. The Cowboys rarely use these opportunities, which is one of the reasons they are always a step behind. They tend to do the opposite and overpay to take someone else's baggage. Cooks is expendable, though it hurts depth to a degree. It also creates opportunity and maybe bring in some new chemistry and play making potential. Ferguson is the true number 2, and Tolbert needs to take a bigger role, even Turpin is in the rotation in a meaningful way. No better time to shuffle a little bit and shake things up.

I've seen the old version on youtube. I am a huge Macca fan, but I can wait a while, and I don't think it is showing anywhere around me anyway.

Just for the record, I hate Garth Brooks. He's like the Dave Matthews of hokey fakeass country.

So it's a Pure Prairie League reunion?

Since I don't have Photoshop any more, this is as close as I could find to aggy serenading his girlfriend.

Back in the day Myspace was a great gateway to new bands, by seeing what other new bands your favorite bands were promoting on the front of their page, and then just linking one after another. It's a shame it eventually suffocated under the tsunami of spam and bullshit that made it unusable. Facebook is almost worthless for similar purposes. The internet of the 90s and early 2000s was great for discovering music, old and new. Used to hang around alot of music oriented message boards and try out tons of recommendations. The resources aren't as good any more. They just keep steering you back to the mainstream crapola.

Pretty much every legit genre of music is dead now, replaced by recycled soylent green dreck. Even the shittier popular forms that emerged in the 80s and 90s seem listenable compared to today's regeration. All you can do is dig through everything you can and sift through the trash to find some hidden gems, both past and present, that were never allowed to by the industry to gain significant play.

Pam Oliver looks like she's about ready for a regular seat on "The View."

Jack White amp will nail that sweet harmonica mic through a megaphone tone.

Leiter's ERA is still under 10, I guess that's something.

Great job, Cody.

Pooor fecals.

Great idea. I find that all the major sports sites get worse and worse and organizing schedules. In the current status, I suggest a hard demarcation line between days, so that it is obvious that there was a game last night, and one tonight.

Kumar looked good. Seeing him pitch in slow motion makes my elbow sore.

Replay just came on, the announcers were dedicating their intro to glowing about what a fantastic season Cody is having. And then this game happened. They cursed him. You hate to see it.

Cody not at his best today. Rangers just generally seem bad vs good teams.

No doubt the N3 pickups are soul killers. They can rock OK in a pinch, but have no dimension, not much sensitivity, clearly not a good match for a Tele, if anything.

Good job, Cody.

Really looks nothing like Bonamassa. Probably has some actual soul.

Nice close. Fuck the yankees.
