So the Bay Area can focus on its baseball team to help it numb the pain of electoral destruction of anti-Constitutional progressivism tomorrow :-)

Thanks to Ron Washington being an idiot and choosing to pitch to him in the 7th.

Dumb.

Now, now... World Series, Super Bowl, Stanley Cup... they are all breaking news, and there is far more here than politics.

It’s entertainment, and bigtime entertainers have ALWAYS made big cash. ...even during the Great Depression.

Nothing wrong with enjoying a diversion from the real world.

Yeah God forbid someone does something with their freedom other than posting on a internet forum a hundred times a day.

“You better vote so American can even have a ball game next year dumasses.”
Cool it Francis!!!

I am proud of the Rangers. Under Nolan’s leadership, they will be back.
