    Not only are the scholarships unlikely, but I’m not so sure I want my daughter tied down to the rigors of the schedule many schools impose on their athletes…

    Maybe they did look lackluster in that last game…

    Henry also eats kittens. That does sound gruesome and horrific at first, but you have to bear in mind his personal chef’s recipe did get three and a half stars on allrecipes.com…

    The original title of that version was “Alice’s Adventures Just Sitting Around Tweedle-Diddling Her Thumbs”

    1. I was right. I’m not surprised. I suppose that the allegation was limited to one sexual assault charge almost qualifies as surprising. 2. In an article about s sexual assault, why on Earth does CNN end with the results of a basketball game? WTF?

    I’m sure Braves’ fans were singing round the campfire at the acquisitions of Duvall (.750), Pederson (.718), Rosario (.685) , and Soler (.658). And somewhere in that song was the lyric “Ronald Acuna who?”

    Hansel Robles was also a good addition to that team, picking up 25 IP and even 4 saves down the stretch…

    I am unaware of the rest of McGregor’s night, although nothing would surprise me. Did he get drunk and beat up a group of nuns? I’m not shocked. Did he, using only his hands, disembowel a litter of puppies? Appalled? Yes. Surprised? Not even remotely. Did he declare war on Nebraska and march through the state punching out every individual he saw? I think at this point I’d actually be surprised if he didn’t…

    You mean like he did in 2021?

    The league must be watered down…

    Kind of hoping Bloom decides against stockpiling outfielders and is able to land an arm or two. Unlike the ‘21 Braves, the Sox currently are a tad overstocked in the outfield…

    Off topic, but WTF was going through McGregor’s brain cell?!?!

    The point is there are clearly precedents for teams being .500 at this point or later and still ultimately making/winning the World Series. I doubt the 37-35 Phillies or 56-56 Braves looked any better or full of life while compiling those mediocre records…

    I saw that too. But I decided to let him run with it. Sox just took both ends of a double header after all…

    Not sure you understood my point. My point is you can’t say the Sox are not legitimate contenders at 35-35 when a team with a nearly identical record played in the World Series a year ago…

    Fire Bloom!! Break up the team!! Fire the coaches!! Fire Cora!! Trade all the players!! Tear down the minors!! Put Wally in a zoo!! Sell the Green Monster for scrap metal!! Turn Fenway into luxury condos!! Starting at $750K they’re a steal!! Two or three bedrooms!! Free WiFi!!! Beautiful view of Ipswich Street!! Do the virtual tour!!!

    The Sox are a .500 team that odd 6 games over when Kike doesn’t play SS, so not sure what conclusion Cora draws from that. “We need to get better when Kike plays SS!!”

    I’ll assume that was a auto correct and not a genetic hybrid using DNA from Gerrit Cole and Phil Coke…

    Ort wasn’t that horrible, and that says not easy for me to say…

    You know, if Alice never went down that rabbit hole, those books would have been awful, boring and forgettable…

    I’m not sure if players are more injury-prone or less. Even if careers were shorter, that could also be rooted in finances, as many players simply had to play longer 30 years ago. I do agree increased salaries have reduced the roles of many players. Why have your $30mill SP pitch that 7th inning with a big lead? Cora’s scheduled off days for hitters fit this logic, too. After all, at some point there’se are no longer players but are investments. Still the notion that the league is watered down because some team 50 years ago was good or because you believe the unprovable notion that two pitchers back then would still be i hittable is preposterous. I suppose if Verlander or Gerrit Cole faced the Big Red Machine, the assumption is they’d treat them like batting practice?

    It does hurt the team by but obviously that’s secondary to Tanner’s recovery. And luck. That could have been devastating…

    The Sox are 35-35. Last year after 70 games, the Phillies were 36-34…
