Who’s a Braves player that wasn’t with us for very long but you grew attached to?
I’ll go first

The BraveVision thing has led to more confusion than if MeTV had suddenly dropped Gunsmoke mid-episode.

Baseball is transactional. Acuna is a Brave because they pay him more each year than I'll make in a lifetime. I root for Acuna because he's a Brave. Right now he's not a Brave and he's playing a team representing the country that makes all the above possible. Strike his ass out.

With Ronald Acuña Jr. Venezuela facing the United States in the WBC Final it begs the question: #BravesCountry are you rooting for Ronald or your country??? We talked about it tonight.

I'm not one to brag, but the numerous degree mills that find me on linkedin are so impressed by my career trajectory that they'd like to invite me to apply to possibly be considered for their master's programs if I qualify. It's good to be in demand.

I have four dream film roles: (1) Uncle Jesse in the remake of Moonrunners; (2) Ty Cobb in a film that fixes the historical malfeasances against him; (3) a sodbuster-turned-vengeful-gunslinger for my own personal catharsis; and (4) any catcher in any baseball movie.

Dale Bryan Murphy. Remember the "Super Murf" homemade banner somebody hung above center field on (I think) the covered football bleachers at Fulton County Stadium? I was so disappointed when they took it down. @DaleMurphy3

Age yourself by naming an MLB center fielder you grew up watching. I’ll start: Ken Griffey Jr.

I hate this stuff but I do it all the time in my mind. How distance was the Eisenhower era? Well, the 52-year-old series Happy Days harked back to it.

Tiger Woods’s first PGA Tour event was closer in time to Eisenhower’s presidency than it is to today

Just thought I heard @spann pop the top on a Budweiser (turned out to be a Coke) and for a second I thought "this must be way worse than a suspenders-only situation."
English
@BlakeMerkley @whignewtons Good take. The founders knew they weren't dealing with one single American people.
English
@whignewtons I'd say this world view is exactly WHY we have the system we have. A lack of trust in any one person is the reason for all the checks and balances in the US.

This is not a sustainable number for a self governing republic such as ours.
Pew Research Center@pewresearch
We asked people around the world to rate the morality and ethics of others in their country. The U.S. is the only place we surveyed where more adults describe the morality and ethics of others living in the country as bad than good. See our full morality report here: pewresearch.org/religion/2026/…
English
@whignewtons But is this a product of our varied cultures? I live in Alabama, but I can't help but think that when someone in New England or California takes this poll, he's probably thinking about me, not someone he knows. I'd be interested in trending data.

Came across this during research. Rubio's success (not Trump's insults) ended Jeb's campaign. Whether or not you like their politics, the Republicans were loaded in '16. Which is what divided voters along the conservative axis and opened a 30% juggernaut way up the populist axis.

@ImperialMaps @theepicmap Henry Morgan and his army of privateers fought and slogged through that mess to emerge in Panama City. The first Spanish guy at the edge of town said, "Seriously? You want it THAT bad? Then here, take our city."
English
@theepicmap The Gulf Coast of Central America was too humid, tropical, and low lying to be optimal for defense and European settlement. The Spanish prioritized cooler and higher elevation locations.

So maybe there's hope. call me the moderate option on this. x.com/MattWelch/stat…

Will vote for any presidential candidate who promises to deliver the State of the Union only in writing.
English
When I'm president, my biggest bully-pulpit move will be to tell everyone to shut up and sit down and hold your applause until the end of my 15-minute State of the Union address. The only hard part is getting elected based on that platform.

4 Justices attending tonight's SOTU (same 4 that attended last year's). And no coincidence that they are the 4 institutionalists--Chief, Kagan, Kavanaugh, and Barrett. Like I've said, if all you're following is the ideological x-axis...you're don't get the Court.
English
Actually, the inflation rate hasn't fallen below 2% since COVID. Not sure where potus got those figures, but there was a point to it: The Fed's long-term target IR is 2%, so if it WERE under that, the argument for hiking rates (and weakening the $) would make more sense.
