Good to win. But man, I'm glad I'm not an Orioles fan. Thanks for the gift anyway.

I'm still mad at Gleyber.

Good, I can watch them and the whack ass New York Giants too. Maybe that’s why the odd start? I dunno… I’ll be at work in the early innings anyway. Every once in a while I ask Siri what the score is… sometimes she answers. Sometimes no signal. Depends on where I wind up… |

On the bloop by Gardy, it looked to me that Gleyber forgot how many outs there were because he was almost to third when that ball dropped. He would have easily been doubled up if the ball had been caught. Maybe he had a good angle on the ball and knew it was going to drop, but his baseball IQ doesn't seem too high. |

I don't know for sure, and Gleyber undoubtedly is not always focused on the field, but on that one I think I would go with the more charitable explanation that he had a better view of the play than Wade at third. He did practically run up Wade's back on the third base line -- wouldn't that have been the icing on the cake? As I was watching the play I was thinking "what is he doing?" But it ended well. Having said that, I don't trust him at all to do the right thing. |

Without the wild card we would be talking about next year or cooking. Imagine what it was like when they only had a Pennant winner which was true for most of MLB history.

Without the wild card we would be talking about next year or cooking. Imagine what it was like when they only had a Pennant winner which was true for most of MLB history. Without the wildcard. That’s a profound difference. Would we still have divisions? Fifteen teams would be a lot in one undivided league. The question is, without the wildcard, would the Yankees have ever tried to compete on a pared down budget? I think no would be the answer. Without the wildcard indeed. A life unchanged for the 1960’s. We could all be watching Leave it to Beaver, as a sixty eight year old Beaver struggles with ED and debilitating leg cramps. Larry Mondello long ago passed away from complications due to his diabetes. Brother Wally, who never got a job is living in Beaver’s basement in the house once owned by Ward and June with his now openly gay lover, Eddie Haskell. Whitey became a sportswriter for the Dodgers and left town in his early twenties. Beaver seems him about once a year. The saddest part of Beaver’s life came in the transition he suffered from cute little boy to becoming a rather homely man with a slight resemblance to Alfred E. Neumann. His role oddly mirroring his actual life as Jerry Mathers in that regard. Once he passed twenty four, he figured out that he was only getting the chicks because he was once “the Beaver”. I think it would be fun if we could still have that show on the air, along with many others. Not as remakes, but as time-accurate continuations. My friend Flicka could have gone through Flicka’s passing as his master came of age. The Flicka line being overbred into a bunch of swayback nags getting sold at over-market prices to unsuspecting novice buyers due to the lineage. The aging son of the Rifleman trying to hold the ranch together with his four ne’er do well sons and grandsons constantly dipping into the till. Maybe all of Walton’s mountain full of tombstones as the entire family has moved on for a better life. The ones that stayed all caught the dreaded virus last year… |

Inger they have people who can help. They are called psychiatrists.

Inger they have people who can help. They are called psychiatrists. They would simply be overpowered and dumbfounded by my case. It would become a reverse diagnosis situation which would have the psychiatric people being put away. I’m especially fond of that “Great Great Great Grand Son of Flicka” plot and intend to submit it to a TV executive. Given some of the garbage on TV today and the alternate stations, I believe it could be a hit. Add some “F” Bombs like Yellowstone, and just a touch of nudity and that’s on the air for twenty years… |
