The Dodgers body language was like an early August Tuesday afternoon getaway game in Miami. Someone should remind them its the World Series. Game 3 seems to have sucked the life right out of them. The core guys (Freeman, Betts, Muncy, Kike, Teoscar) are all over 32 years old. And Will Smith...

I tapped out after the 17th, saw the highlights in the morning. Was awesome to see Kershaw get us out of that jam in what may be his very last appearance. I think they should go to the regular season extra inning rule starting in maybe the 12th inning? I worry about Ohtani pitching tonight...

Yup, both of them worked the Dodgers over pretty good this year. Best bet is, if we can win the first two against the Reds, and save Ohtani to start Game 1 in Philly. Glasnow has definitely shown flashes of brilliance the last month, but I still have zero trust in him in a tough game. To me...

Lol not very confident. Six months ago, they were afraid the Dodgers broke baseball. The season proved anything can happen, and we stunk for good portions of the season. Best team of all time, not a chance. But, in some ways, we are in better shape going into the playoffs than we were in...

Selling for $1,000 UNDER "invoice"? Must be lots of holdback...................

Wow, a 65K OTD F150 XLT trim (not Lariat, not Platinum). Last truck I bought was a used 2011 (27k miles) F150 XLT 4x4. Paid less than $30k, have it to this day. The new price points are difficult for poors like me to get my mind around.

I don't drive a Tesla, but instead a Chevy Bolt EV as my everyday commuter car (40 miles round trip daily). Had three different EV's before the Bolt. I agree with what you are saying, and don't have any illusions that this makes a hill of beans difference, environmentally or otherwise. That...

It was a fun series to watch for sure. Just inconceivable to me that we are, yet again, mining other teams' DFAs to find some pitching. Hopefully, some of the half billion dollars on the disabled list are able to come back and contribute something. Yamamoto definitely didn't look right...

The District that my wife teaches in is 90%+ Hispanic. My wife is Caucasian, but happens to be bilingual (lived in Uruguay for a couple of years when she was a kid, there existed no bilingual education there, so she had to learn Spanish, imagine that). But being bilingual has always given her...

Definitely him in the video, definitely him doing the stabbing. The kids was nothing but a lying POS, killed this girl because she wouldn't go to the fair with him, and he was rejected and embarrassed. So, what made him this way, a fragile homicidal maniac? Parents weren't perfect (but who...

Awesome, it sure seems like you are doing all that you can do to get him started on solid footing. Sounds like you may have a future athlete on your hands. That was what my son was from age 5 through high school. I could literally write a book about what NOT to do when navigating the All...

Watched it over the weekend, one of the heaviest, most heart-wrenching things that I've seen in a while. I have two really great, well adjusted kids now in their mid 20's. When I reflect back on myself as a parent, I believe that my children are doing so well not because of me as a father, but...

He's definitely struggling, that's for sure. Would bet he's never had anything but success, so anything but that is a shock to the system. Pitching in front of four decks is obviously a pretty big jump. He'll be fine, the bones are there (good velocity, great movement). I would move him to be...

I have several of the Holosun red dots (for rifles, not pistols). The all have the "shake awake" feature, such that the dot shows up automatically when you pick up the weapon. When sitting, it automatically turns off. With a lithium in there, you would think a LONG battery life could be had...

I have the Vortex 5x prism sight. Also added a simple Vortex red dot to the top of it for 1x duty. The prism is an etched reticle with holdovers, so its still usable should there be a battery issue. If I had it to do over, I probably would have gone with the 3x instead of the 5x. YMMV.
