Death spiral! The world is ending! Some games are just like this.

I was at the game today sitting behind home plate. From my view, the ump was consistent on his calls on both teams. Some the strikes called looked like balls to me but he called the whole game this way.

Give it a break. You and your ilk suck the fun out of life.

Sometimes I wish Mr. Trump would tone it down. However, Stick and Stones….. Grow a pair and quit bitching.

re: Why do liberals care whether or not a deported illegal has committed a violent crime?

They’re only concerned when directly affected by the crime and criminal. If it doesn’t affect them personally, they don’t care what the illegal did.

I wait 3 seconds. You’re in your car, on the road with somewhere to go? Get off your phone Francis! Just Frikin Drive!

I wonder if this would work for those with MS. My wife has been battling that shite disease for 46 years.

14-23 from the Free Throw Line

This lost the game. Make your damn free throws!

Maybe this is why Ole Miss is considered a rival?

Wine dinner Saturday night with my much better half. Not a moron. They make a thing called a DVR. I’m using it.

Going through something similar. Wife has had MS for 46 years. Still raised our two sons and had a 32 year career! She retired at 55. I kept working and saving thinking we’d travel (internationally) once I retired.

I retired 3 years to become my wife’s full time caregiver. We won’t be making those international trips. Thankful that we did a lot of N America travel before her condition worsened.

I recommend for those in their 30’s and 40’s to take those trips, don’t put off until retirement. Life sometimes gets in the way.

I had business partner that would order his steak the same way. He blamed his Mom. She used to eat her’s raw.

That happens more often than you’d suspect. I interned at the DA’s office while attending LSU. The first call I went on with the investigator I was assigned to was one of these deaths. An 84 year old man died trying to pass a hard one. He was still lying by the toilet when we arrived. His poor wife had dementia and couldn’t understand why her husband wouldn’t get up.
