IT’S TIME FOR DODGER BASEBALL

Anyway, we’re less than 5 minutes of game clock away from baseball season

Man if this game was going to suck this much couldn’t we have at least gotten the first ever Super Bowl shutout

The last two and a half days or so have been extremely scary as sandy had a major GI health scare that required two nights in the hospital. But she’s home now, and she took her meds and ate a full dinner like it was no problem, and this little corner of the world feels alright again.

I have literally never cared more about anything to do with Eugenio Suarez than I do about him doing this. It must happen.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

Even Hobbes, the most notoriously pro authoritarian government philosopher in history, who thought you had to obey even the worst government because it was better than no government, said that if your government just starts killing you, you don't have a social contact.

You don't have a government.

Our government is full of maniacs operating with impunity
Re: Jung Ho Lee: Boras has an incentive to play it all down as a harmless "paperwork issue" but I find it telling that Pelosi's office got involved. And it's not like our fucking out-of-control Border Patrol is entitled to the benefit of the doubt.

I was born in 1991. During the first 16 years of my life, I watched the dodgers win one playoff game. Over the 16 that followed, they got labeled chokers who couldn’t win when it mattered, even as we all learned they were cheated out of a title, and the one they did win was called fake.

Happy to wait for smarter people to tell me how to feel about this but I must confess my initial reactions to this news are “huh??” and “why?”
IF Andy Ibanez has agreed to terms on a one-year big league deal with the Dodgers pending physical, per source.

Ibanez, 32, was non-tendered by the Tigers in November.

if you are talking today about how bad maduro was and were alive, at all, during the run-up to the iraq war you are potentially the dumbest person to ever live

The cardinals were only supposed to get two prospects from Boston, but then they yelled “Yhoik!” and grabbed a third one and ran away

I’m glad the orioles are finally trying to go for it while they have this young talent! But hoo boy, it’s good that specifically the orioles have never been burned on big contract to a slugging first baseman with concerning underlying metrics or I might be a little worried about this Alonso contract

Sorry Mr. Jackson
Oooooh, traded for Eeles
Orioles trade catcher Alex Jackson to the Twins in exchange for minor league infielder Payton Eeles.

Jackson was one of the tender deadline decisions ahead of Baltimore today. Instead, the Orioles flip him for a middle infielder who reached Triple-A last season

Even though I do think Judge had the objectively better season, I still kinda wanted Cal to win. Ah well.
