Top three wrong calls went against the Twins too, all in the eighth.
And none of them were even the eggregious strike 3 non-calls.
You should be able to just put a carriage return after the link and have Sean's Magicks work automatically.
Yes. Put a Twitter link on its own line and WordPress will automatically embed the tweet. Same thing for YouTube and many others. Instagram is on that list, except Facebook removed the embed ability.
Grampa, what's a carriage return?
It's when you present your claim check to the valet parking attendant....
I know your type, buddy.
What's really annoying is that, normally, Jeff Nelson is a pretty good umpire. Then, only in the eighth inning, he wasn't.
Norm MacDonald passed away at 61 after a long battle with cancer.
Wow, that's a dark sketch now.
Cats, a Memoir
September 14, 2003. I had never owned a cat in my life.
September 15, 2003. I got Jags. Named after Mick Jagger. The best cat ever.
July 2004. I got Theodore Finkle (aka, Theo). Named after both a co-worker (who I like) and a nickname I had for my niece. A great cat.
June 2005. We got Eleanor Rigby (aka, Ellie). Named that cat after a Beatles song. Not really a good cat at all. Fought with the other two, never warmed up to anyone, hid most of time. Pooped on the carpet so much that I had to move a litter box into dining room. I have often said that if Ellie had been the first cat, there would not have been a second cat.
June 30, 2021. Ellie died while I was on a business trip.
September 1, 2021. Jags died. I was absolutely heartbroken.
September 14, 2021. My wife is out picking up Ralph Lauren (aka "Ralphie") and Leonard Nimoy (aka "Lenny"). I am not in favor of this, but in the interest of family harmony, I have given in. My daughter is now in charge of laundry until such day arrives where she moves out.
Ralphie is a tuxedo cat, hence the name. Lenny has really pointy ears. They are biological brothers.
Uh-oh. Two boys. Gonna be hell to pay.
Early impressions. Lenny is a really affectionate cat. Ralphie less so. They have *slightly* more energy than the geriatrics we’ve been living with. Theo has not been introduced yet.
Lenny is jet black with just a hint of white on his chest. He’s sleek like a panther. Really a beautiful animal.
One of my HS classmates was the runner whose body was found this morning in Eden Prairie. Hug your families, everyone.
Way too young.
NBBW's ex-boss is going to a concert in TC (Xcel Center) and was looking for hotel advice. He wants to impress his date.
I immediately thought of Marquette hotel in Mpls and The Saint Paul hotel in St. Paul, both classics.
I talked with a buddy in North Oaks two days ago on the subject. He said you do NOT want to go to Mpls right now as it's a sh*t show for crime. Also St. Paul. Shortage of cops, etc.
What in the world is going on there?
We're steering him to spots in Stillwater (Hotel Crosby, Lowell Inn, etc.).
As someone who actually lives in Minneapolis and frequents both Downtowns, your friend's opinion on the state of situation is bogus.
It's not Mad Max like some people think but crime is definitely a problem right now.
I know crime is up (though this isn't a Downtown only problem) but it certainly isn't a reason to Drive in to Xcel from Stillwater and avoid DTWN Mpls/StP.
I agree. I live in Downtown St. Paul and work in Frogtown. Is there crime? Yes, unfortunately for the most part it's related to bad dudes doing bad stuff to other bad dudes.
Tell you friends not to stay out past 2:00a and they should be ok.
I'm in downtown St. Paul most days for work, and I've gone to about 15 Twins games this summer and I completely echo free. There's nothing inherently dangerous right now about either location unless you're looking for trouble.
Where is the umpire strike zone tracking data found again?
Umpire scorecards on Twitter. Yesterday's aren't available yet.
Trying out the fancy image imbed. If it doesn't work, the link is at https://twitter.com/UmpScorecards/status/1437786931606298627/photo/1
0.15 runs is kinda important in a tie ballgame

Day 8 of my beard project.
What I want is a Robert De Niro Deer Hunter beard, but what I'm getting is a Tom Hanks News of the World beard.
And the ichy/scratchies are coming in heavy now. I don't think the beard will last Day 9.
