Von Trappe is solid. Good lagers and a beautiful setting in the fall. There’s an Inn there.

I get that this reality kind of sucks. But he's got assistants. He can take a week to go to the beach and relax. He also needs to realize that losing a close game to the eventual champion isn't a failure. Not every team is going to come together the way you expected. Doesn't happen for any...

Yeah, that's sad news. It won't likely be 4+ weeks. Doctors say more like 3 for a grade 1 strain. We need Abreu back quickly, that will help a lot. The whole lineup tonight makes it seem like an NFL preseason game. They are using a bullpen starter and gave virtually all the best players a...

Underrated actor. So many key roles in good films. I had forgotten how good Thunderheart was until this thread. Green Mile was another gem.

He's Mr. Krabbs!

I think Luke has already leapfrogged him. Easily the most valuable assistant on the team.

Was the contemplation of stepping aside really "serious"?

South Kent puts out some players if I recall, but my point is more that New England/NY dominates. There are others like Monteverde, Oak Hill and Sunrise Christian and lots more, but we have more near us than any other top tier program.

F1. Thought this was really well done. Engaging characters, Brad Pitt, Javier Bardem, Kerry Condon and the young rookie played by Damson Idris. It's a human tale about redemption, second chances, teamwork etc. It also gives you a fascinating look into just how hyper technical F1 is. The...

I don't really care about the from Connecticut thing. It's muddled by the fact that we dominate the prep school space. I would like to see the staff hit on as many of the guys they want as possible. That includes Toure. I think being local to the recruit either gives us a significant...

I haven't watched it in years. About the same age as you. My daughter, Gen Z, loves it and was unhappy with the recent firings. I don't know what the fix is, because the original talent level was so high, as were some subsequent stars like Eddie Murphy, Dana Carvey, Martin Short, Farrell...

Big win yesterday. I spent my anniversary at the game. It was pretty wild. Two balks, one that scored a run and then the Story HR off a glove and into Pesky's pole. John Henry and his wife were hanging around the dugout pre-game.

Agreed. The two worst brands are Nike and (for people with tiny feet) Adidas. ASICS makes very good running shoes and tennis shoes. Actually better looking than the hideous Nikes I see. The Cumulus remains one of my favorites. Hokas are good but don’t last.

Breslow is the reason the minors is full of good pitching now and guys like Tolle are up. This was a reasonable gamble and Buehler wasn't bad, he was excellent at times but inconsistent. I think the release is mostly because they just don't see Tolle going back down and Buehler hasn't been a...

Look at this guy. 6'6" 250. Went from college to to single A to the majors in five months. He can mash as a hitter too.
