  1. From my dad today. Sherman Texas. First is his message to me. The second is the notification he received. She volunteered at the Adult Center up there and ran the book club. This woman was baby sitting and she died protecting the child. She was In her twenties. Two pitts. Really nice girl and in good shape. If they get you down it can bad fast. For those of you who may not have heard yet, our friend and book club facilitator Lindsay Stroup, from the Eisenhower Birthplace, has passed away as the result of a dog attack. As soon as I learn any details on funeral arrangements we will have something sent from the library and the book club. It is a terrible shock and we will miss her terribly.
  2. I was living in Bastrop when this went down. Dad being former SF I was like Meh, no biggie, they train all over the place. But my neighbors? Holy shit...... They had everything locked and loaded. They were convinced it was going to be a take over with Bastrop being the hub of SF/DELTA/SEALs operations to take over Texas, steal everyone's cattle, and make everyone a slave to the new world order. I sat back, and said fuck it bring it on. It was fun to watch. You could not buy ammo anywhere. All these dudes were locked and loaded. Meanwhile it did happen and no one noticed. Um, that was the purpose of the exercise. Can SOCOM operate quietly?
  3. Cross posting. Should have put it here. Grew up where the only baseball I got to see was WGN or TBS. Depended on what the cable company wanted to show that day. Meant I never got to see my team, but I did not mine. Respected the Cubs. Stepmom was a diehard Cubbie. Anyways, thanks Ryan. You made afternoons fun. For those who have a bit of time today.
  4. Why would they target themselves? I laughed when hospitality was removed from the hunt list. Yeah, sucks to not have room service or clean sheets in hotels. Fuck these fucking fucks.
  5. This thread was good. It now sucks.
  6. In Honduras. It was all we could get. RIP Ryan. You were magic at that position.
  7. Yeah, just wait for him to walk off the plane. Where else he going to go? Pull a Running Man on the Airport? Don't think so unless he knows they are there. This was for show, training, and ego.
  8. Just got to sign them up with endorsements. This such petty shit. Hope we relent and they win it all. Meanwhile. Approximately 28% of players on Major League Baseball (MLB) Opening Day rosters come from Latin American countries. Specifically, 264 players from 19 different countries outside the US were on MLB rosters in 2024, including those on the injured and inactive lists. The Dominican Republic is the leading contributor of Latin American players to MLB. More on this here. https://www.batdigest.com/blog/mlb-players-by-country/
  9. We were in Boston for less than 24 hours. Focus was on Fenway and the area. Some highlights. 1- Got my fix on Clam Chowder. 2- Son got to meet and have a beer with one of his idols, Jonny Gomes. 3- He found his new Sox hat. 4- Chapman drives an APC. No weapons, but the mounts are there. That sensor on the top is worth a pretty penny.
  10. That place still hurts my head! But it was damn fun time. Son might have had one bourbon more than needed, but the kid had a blast. Bartender liked him so she was hooking him up.
  11. I talked with a few of them. They stayed out of the way and just did their thing. Was fun to watch. Boston's finest were real chill with them.
  12. Leave the offense and defense alone. It will mature. That is why you have Bregman/Story. Let them be captains. Spend on Pitching. Don't trade away talent. Spend. Oh and watching the protest was fun. It was weird no one selling in the stands.
  13. Of the three I am the only Sox fan. Brisket just wanted to see it I think. And Bruin was decked out in all his Dodger gear. I think the jersey was fitted. @Sbbruin But we had a great time. I did get to see Ohtani's HR Saturday. It was nice to see, but better that we won since I was surrounded by some very cool Dodger fans.
  14. What I am hearing is there was a Thai patrol. Eat the border. Being observed by drones. As they went they hit a landmine. One dead 5 wounded. Thais sent in one aircraft as a fuck you strike. Cambodia launched rockets and arty. Decisions were made up higher. Could go away. Could get nasty.
  15. Maybe he is afraid he will be deported. Nah, gutless. And I had some faith in him. So did most of my friends who worked for State. Yeah, past tense.
  16. Just another day at the office. Afterwards they can go and talk fantasy football and coolest face coverings. Immigration agents told a teenage US citizen: ‘You’ve got no rights.’ He secretly recorded his brutal arrest https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jul/25/florida-teen-immigration-arrest Laynez-Ambrosio can also be heard telling officers: “I was born and raised right here.” Still, he was pushed to the ground and says that an officer aimed a stun gun at him. He was subsequently arrested and held in a cell at a Customs and Border Protection (CBP) station for six hours. Audio in the video catches the unidentified officers debriefing and appearing to make light of the stun gun use. “You’re funny, bro,” one officer can be overheard saying to another, followed by laughter. Another officer says, “They’re starting to resist more now,” to which an officer replies: “We’re going to end up shooting some of them.”
  17. This is nothing. There is a contract already submitted much larger. Up to 10B. Multiple companies will be selected. It is to build and run facilities and support transportation. I find this interesting. I thought the illegals would all be gone by 2026. So why will they need this in 2027? And why the Army? Why not DHS funds? Construction is expected to be completed by September 2027, according to the Department of Defense contract notice. Army funds of $232 million have been allocated to the facility.
  18. So you are saying we will not starve? Just have to deal with the kind nature of Bostonians? Yeah, we are good.
  19. First run on me. We will watch BP from the 1B side and then wander to our seats towards the end. You are out in RF right?
  20. Just remember to mute when you flush. Had someone do that to me. I just laughed and laughed.
