Not quite MLB, but the Savannah Bananas are coming to Pittsburgh to play at PNC Park in August for two games. I'm in the lottery for tickets to see them play in Death Valley in Clemson in April. All of the years going to Hilton Head, we've never been able to get tickets to see them at home. Pretty c...

FAFO

I finally got to see a 1 at the beginning of my weight, for the first time in about 12 years. I've been on a meal replacement/low carb diet since April, and I've lost 45 pounds so far. I still would like to get down another 10 pounds, at least, and hopefully build enough muscle to stay there. I boun...

How do you store it for the rest of the year?

I've been enjoying The Guardian's US news coverage: Donald Trump unleashed a foul-mouthed tirade about undocumented immigrants and predicted that this “could be the last election we ever have” if Kamala Harris wins during a private fundraising dinner this summer. The Guardian obtained a 12-minute re...

That was crazy, and I find it really hard to fathom that the Brewers haven't won a playoff series since 2018? I feel like they've been pretty dominant for a while now, or maybe just against the Pirates. Or maybe being stuck in a division with the likes of the Reds, Pirates, and sometimes the (bad) C...

That's awesome. Wow.

I have no idea what this means…

It's from the vaccine symptoms study article I posted above.

The strike by tens of thousands of dockworkers on the East and Gulf coasts has been called off, after the International Longshoremen's Association and the United States Maritime Alliance, representing ocean carriers and port operators, reached a tentative agreement on wages. The two sides have agre...

I've always assumed that the Braves had fans all over mostly due to the fact that their games were broadcast nationally, thanks to TBS before that was really a thing. Cubs too, back in the day. I loved watching WGN with a usually drunk Harry Caray on the call. Good stuff. I loathe loathe loathe the...

Band of Brothers has a great score (RIP Michael Kamen) as well.

I decided to try a month free trial for YouTube Premium, which comes with YouTube Music premium (which I had back in the Google Play Music days). I logged into it for the first or second time in years, and all of my old Google Play playlists were there and my uploaded music too. But what was really ...

I had a really good playlist with the early Marvel film scores, which was great work background music. Dunkirk is good too.

Absolutely. And their bandwagon useless fans (lots of them here in SC).

I don't remember ever decorating a house for Halloween growing up, and it seems to have really taken off the last five years or so. To each their own, but what goes up must come down...and cleaned and stored. I'd rather not. :lol: I barely do Christmas decorations for the same reason. And honestly, ...

This is probably more historical/military thread appropriate, but I watched a very interesting film (finally) titled "Theirs Is The Glory." It's a British made film from 1946 based around the Arnhem battles during Operation Market-Garden. It's on Amazon Prime albeit with a 2+ minute prerol...

Good stuff. Really like the Billy Strings album a lot. Love the cover, sweet ass Chevelle SS.

My 18 year old Clemson Honors college student was horrendous until late first grade or so. All of the above behaviors, lack of impulse control, testing limits, etc. Between our buckling down with him and a really solid 1st and 2nd grade teacher (he had the same teacher for both grades, which is a ni...

That Friars-Dodgers series is going to be fun. Is Ohtani going to pitch? That would be unreal.

I celebrate the #Barves losing because I'm a Pirates fan. **** them and the horse they rode in on.

For some reason, both my wife and I thought Nobody Wants This was a rom com movie. It's not, but actually a decent 10 episode comedy on Netflix starring Kristen Bell, Adam Brody, Justine Lupe, and Timothy Simons. Actually pretty entertaining and light. Brody and Bell have enough chemistry that I thi...

The researchers collected survey responses from 82 participants, asking about their lifestyles and how bad the symptoms from COVID-19 vaccines were. It was not a study on the body’s actual physical response to vaccinations, but rather how the participants felt. “We're not directly measuring the imm...

Started to build our weekly grocery pickup list for Wal-mart. No milk, Gatorade, eggs, and a few other items. Between many many local supply drives to take upstate or NC, people are hoarding staples because of the longshoreman strike. Ugh.

Sully says Brunicke may have a chance to stick around for a few real games.
