Nice to see Martin pick up where he left off last year, and actually have the team score a run to get him a W.

ESPN knows. This is the year.

Was that a "pickup" line?

Jayron will have to buy out the remaining Kearse #27 jerseys. That could cost hundreds.

Pardons if posted earlier, but this mural apparently exists at a taco joint in Arlington.

Just wait and buy them off of disappointed Ohtani fans.

I never understood why they would schedule an off day in the middle of a series. Just play them in a row and give the traveling team or teams an extra day to get their shit together. That's some Roger Goodell type bullshit.

Parsons says a lot of shit. He probably sticks with 11. He's a potential Hall Of Famer, don't fuck with an established number. Zero would suck on a defensive player, as with most any player, other than maybe a Cowboys kicker. As far as Davis, he did good, but it's way easier to look good as a number 3 back on selected plays.. Pass protection is huge, it's one of the big reasons Zeke still had SOME value as a player. Too many RBs don't even want to be good at it, or lack the physique or knack for it. It's something that will need to be addressed in the offseason.

First place, bitches.

Damn, this game is almost at 2 hours already in the 5th. Glad they adopted the pitch clock.

You gotta snag that one, Lowe. I texted my buddy at 0-5 "Rangers still suck." You're welcome. Rangers fans.

Rangers making it exciting this year.

Hit and miss with bluebirds here. A couple of years ago they were all over the place on the property. The big freeze did a number on them and they had a hard time coming back. I think the Cooper's Hawks nailed a few more, they're pretty easy targets to spot for those bastards. But hawks gotta eat, too, ya know. I still see some occasionally on the outer fringes of the pasture, but they don't nest in the bird boxes near home. I don't think they like to nest near a lot of trees where predators can hide out and swoop in quickly. They seem to like being out in the open a lot better.

I'll go 83. That's with DeGrom pitching about half the season.

Early TEs are very risky, high disappointment rate, and even with the decent ones can often take a couple years to show up. I would wait until at least 4th round. I think the Cowboys are OK at TE without Schultz, plus a draftee. There are usually decent TE bodies in post-draft free agency if they need depth.

I stopped reading DP a long time ago, but would occasionally read something there when I googled a particular thing that led me there. It's crazy that Amazon can just pull the plug like that and shit all over the users and creators.

Dante Fowler has re-signed as well.

Strange signing. Jones has been a disappointment in Tampa, mostly getting junk time. He must have come dirt cheap, but it seems like there were better options out there at fairly low cost.

Sounds like he's in mid-season form.

Good to see a proper depositor for fecals material.

I'm skeptical. It seems too in focus to be real.

The TE price market seems to be down a bit. Gesicki got a similar deal, 9 mil but much based on incentives, with both coming off a franchise tag year that payed more. Schultz turned down a much bigger 3 year deal offered last year and saved Dallas a good chunk of money.

False. Cooper was a production/cost issue. He was not what they thought they were paying for when they got him. They accepted their mistake and moved on and limited the hit to short term.

And use eBird online to see what birds are identified in particular areas, including popular hotspots. Go to ebird.org, then under "location" select the county you are looking in. The "Major Location" is like North America. Then the second box is "Region" where you would start typing in the county. Then you will see the list of birds most recently IDed in that county, and you can find more specific location info there. There is also an eBird app so you can do all that stuff from your phone. The website is easier, though. You can register and keep your observations there if you want to share. Any questionable birds on your lists will be reviewed by a regional expert. You will get email feedback from the expert if something is in doubt or is nuked because it just isn't likely that you saw an Ivory Billed Woodpecker. When you submit a checklist for a particular outing, you will get a list with checkboxes of the birds that are known to likely be in the area you are birding. That's really the best tool for becoming aware of the birds in your area and where to find specific ones.

Merlin, by Cornell U. It includes description ID, photo ID and sound ID that have been fairly recently updated. Install the app, then download the bird pack for Texas/Oklahoma and/or North America, or for whatever part of the world you may be roaming. None of these apps are complete verification of a bird sighting or sound. The are tools for narrowing down the candidates.
