[quote]He’s an absolutely AWFUL human being.[/quote]
As someone who has worked as a primarily fast pitch softball umpire with some baseball sprinkled in, I’m usually last to jump on umpires for bad calls/incorrect rulings.
But his actions and attempted power plays off the field and screaming ...

Which makes zero difference since it had already passed an infielder and no other fielder had a legitimate chance to record an out. ...

A quick check of the rule book shows they did not get hosed.

I’m perfectly fine with this. The question becomes how many states will have him on the ballot. If he is on swing state ballots, he will draw more away from Biden than Trump, based on his beliefs. This is good news to me. ...
re: Politico: FL public schools face staggering enrollment declines; school choice working
Posted by Volsfan82169 on 5/26/24 at 10:59 pm

Karen Weekly pissed this one away by starting her second best pitcher and giving up that 4 spot in the first. Of course, it hasn’t helped that UT hasn’t scored in 16 innings now. ...
