@UziCryptoo Local government, not State

Texas doesn’t have state income tax. What it DOES have is a property tax bill that resets every year based on whatever your home is “worth now.” Mine went up $3,800 in a single year. I didn’t get a raise. My house didn’t get bigger. The state just decided it needed more money. At least california is honest about robbing you.

Happy Playoffs for High School Softball Day! Good luck, Players, Coaches, Trainers and Parents. Have solid games, Blues! 👕

@MegRemSoftball As an umpire, I would've ejected the catcher and the manager...no place for this. Sorry...FAFO

There is a right way to play this game and a wrong way and this is 100% in the wrong. I don’t care that the batter moved back out of the box- you don’t intentionally step back to throw at her head, as hard as you can, from about a foot away. I don’t want to hear “you don’t know it wasn’t intentional.” Save it. The runner at 3rd is about a half step off 3rd. The way the catcher is positioned to throw, that throw is going towards the 3rd base fence. The most telling part though? No one checks on that batter and catcher gets a high five right after from her coach. The batter ended up with a concussion. This is completely unacceptable and has no place in this sport.

@Phinhead83 @MegRemSoftball Absolutely.

Catcher only throws to draw interference knowing the batter stepped out of the box. Catcher even stepped in step with batter to keep her between catcher and 3rd. Technically interference, but also should've led to bench clearing brawl for catcher maliciously throwing at batter's head just to take advantage of a rule.

@87Starscream @MegRemSoftball Wrong.

@MegRemSoftball This might be the dumbest thing I’ve seen somebody post in a long time. 100% on the catcher side, there not playing 9u softball, catcher knows in order to throw out the runner at third you need to step back and release the ball. Batter interference that’s on the batter! Oh well!

@thrivert2 @MegRemSoftball Not true. This is taught and coached. This is how the game is wrongly coached. You are absolutely wrong.

@MegRemSoftball You and anyone else truly thinking this is intentional are part of the problem in our society and the reason the trajectory of it is so piss poor. Victim, victim, victim. Accuse, accuse, accuse. Cry, cry, cry. Let’s post it social media instead of do something productive! Please.

@matty_b @MegRemSoftball Wrong

@MegRemSoftball As someone who was a catcher all through high school, when you are trying to make a play in the field, the batter all but disappears. This was an accident.

@MrHenrichs @MegRemSoftball Absolutely-freaking-lately AND the coach.

@MegRemSoftball Can an umpire kick the player out of the game for this?

@MegRemSoftball Dead ball. Catcher ejection and coach ejection.

@JeremyBranham Jim Crane. He should know better. The best organizations pay up for scouting and talent consistently. You cannot just do this once and hope to keep your franchise relevant. That being said, we’ve had a good run. We likely finish 3rd in the Division.

Who do you blame more for the Astros 9-16 start? Dana Brown or Joe Espada?

@AstrosShoulda @JustBB_Media Honestly, he should have 7 by now.

@JustBB_Media Seems suspicious

Dalton Rushing has 6 home runs in TWENTY-SIX at-bats 🤯 He’s off to an unreal start!

@MattSchirm_CAA Sad that student athletes have this attitude. Play for the love of the game and get your education while doing it at any level.

Here's an attitude I hear from high school players occasionally: "If my only options for playing college baseball are D3, then I'll just go to school." There's nothing wrong with "just going to school," but I generally struggle with this attitude. I think... - Have you seen a D3 baseball game? Do you REALLY understand how good D3 baseball is? (Note: It's better than most people think) - If you think you're "better than D3," why not prove it by being a D3 All-American your freshman year and then transfer up? (Note: Most (if not all) D3 All-Americans are good enough to play at a "higher level") - Isn't playing college baseball anywhere better than not playing at all? I understand that all players will have to "hang up the cleats at some point" and should get to decide for themselves when that point is without judgment...but I also suspect a some players miss out on a great college baseball experience (and a great education) only because their ego tells them they're "too good for D3." If you're reading this as a player who would choose just going to school over D3 baseball, I'd love to know why. Feel free to comment below.

What year is this?

@amyknowsball No!

Think the plan is to cut bangs tomorrow

@Dune_in_Katy Everyone in Houston “was there”.

VY greatest game ever was the regional finals Madison vs North Shore in the Astrodome. Willie Gaston went on to play CB at UH and is now the HC at NS

Hypothetically…….. I’m being taxed on money I never made. Let that sink in. If I bought my property outright for $60,000 in 2009 Now the county says it’s worth $246,000. Did I sell it? No. Did I make a profit? No. Did I get a check for $246,000? No. But my taxes jumped like I did. That’s the problem. This isn’t income. This isn’t cash. This is a number someone decided on paper — and now I’m being billed for it. If my stock portfolio doubles, I don’t pay taxes until I sell. If my income doesn’t increase, I don’t magically owe more income tax. So why does owning a home work differently? Why am I being taxed on unrealized gains? A house isn’t just an investment — it’s where people live. And this system means you can do everything right, pay off your home, and still get squeezed harder every year because of a number you never turned into money. You don’t truly own something if you can be taxed out of it. This isn’t about “services” or “inflation.” It’s about being charged for value you never received. And people are starting to notice. This needs to be on everyone’s mind✔️

@RyanLostinTX Now the plaid is on the shorts, amiright?

I kinda miss looking like this.

@camibrown1984 @TexasMike1776 Love @LanceZierlein , he’s the best! 🫶🏼

Relaxing with my boo thang ❤️@TexasMike1776

@madGradTX I mean, there is zero reason to watch after season three…

I’m about to watch every season of ER…how long do y’all think it’ll take me?
