  1. Yes! And how about Zimmermann! Ellicott City born and bread. Right next to the sweet air of Catonsville!
  2. 10-0 Orioles are up...still top of the 3rd inning. Ok....I've seen 3 days of the Red Sox pitchers and they suck. So....An assumption here....too early to tell how good the Orioles are. It looks like a 3 game sweep is in the making and from what I have seen, the Orioles are cashing on their opportunities. Few mental errors and the pitching is holding up. I don't know how well the Sox are as far as hitting and scoring. Are they making the O's pitchers look better than they are? I'm just getting back to watching baseball....maybe. I was an avid fan until 1999. Followed almost every game by radio or TV. So I have a lot of catching up to do.
  3. After the first 3 innings I thought the Orioles would be lucky to get a hit or a run with how awesome Houck was pitching. He looked un-hittable. 4-2 O's win. Franco broke it open in the 4th with a 2 run single....and Harvey held the Sox to 1 run in 4 and 2/3rds innings. Plutko gets the win....the bull pen held up for the 2nd day in a row. Valdez make it nerve wracking in the 9th by allowing the first 2 batters to get on. Then....he got his shit together.
  4. Like this! Baltimore Orioles @Orioles · 17h Likely the best Opening Day start in Orioles history. John. Means. Business. Oh they're looking real good for todays game... First pitch: 1:10 p.m. TV/Radio: MASN/105.7 FM Starting pitchers: Orioles RLHP Matt Harvey (0-3, 11.57 ERA in 2020) vs. Red Sox RHP Tanner Houck (3-0, 0.53 ERA in 2019) Could today be "Bombs Away!"
  5. Interesting....yet it's logical. Some are there for ego, fame and fortune. Some are statesman and servants of the people.
  6. Opening day 3-0 shut out of the Red Sox! The Means and Montcastle show. Means threw 7 scoreless innings. He had control all the way. At one point he set down 18 straight batters! Here's an obscure stat. Considering all the great Oriole pitchers of the past, Means is the first Orioles pitcher since 1901 to go 7 or more innings on Opening Day allowing 1 hit or fewer. Who'd-a-thunk?! Montcastle hit a 2 run double off the Green Monster. Sweet start to the season. I never expected Orioles pitching to hold up against that line up. Retirement is good. I got to watch my first opening day game in about 20 years. Not so good is the outrageous price for jerseys.... $259.99 Men's Baltimore Orioles Nike Black Alternate Authentic Team Jersey That is robbery.
  7. If no electoral college, then what? Popular vote only? I'm for term limits. What age limits? I definitely want the money out of politics. Money creates a conflict of interest....period. They are elected to serve the American people. Not their financial doners and backers. Currently it amounts to bribery no matter how it's cloaked. No parties is interesting. Candidates would actually have to state what they stand for. Elected officials would not be ham strung by having to go along party lines and voting blocks. They could vote their conscience on all issues. It would stop the games. It would stop knowingly being part of something that is inherently wrong like what the Republicans have been doing as a voting block. The Democrats are just as guilty of this. This dead lock power grab by political parties kills what is best for America....nothing gets done.
  8. I started following politics less than a year ago when I retired.....mainly because work and family left me with little time to keep up on it. like most citizens, I closed my eyes and trusted those who goven to do their jobs. In the last year I have learned that many of the elected officials in Congress do not belong there. It's scary to have so many unqualified and disinterested people supposedly representing us. I seriously doubt their ability to draft legislation or even be able to read and understand it....if they read it at all. So many are spineless chameleons. It's a shit show of shameless self promoting. Huge Ego Trips galore....and big businees owns and pulls the strings on so many. We are an Oligarcy disguised as a Democracy. Have been for well over a century. And...we just dodged the bullit on becoming an Autocracy. This goes for all parties. Change needs to start at the grass roots level. We need to stop voting for the charasmatic person to represent us. Those who says all the right things, but has no experience or track record of actually doing the work. Since I was a boy, I heard politicians say the same things over and over.... " It's time for Change! I'm for better schools and education. We must stop the crime! Our streets and neighborhoods need to be safe. Elect me and we'll get this done!" They all campaign on the need for change. Learn to say that loudly with a charasmatic smile and you have good odds on being elected. Well....nothing has changed except for the fact that it's continues to get worse. Where are the civic minded men and women of strong moral character and principle? Where are the representatives who actually see themselves, and go about their duties, as Servants for the People of the United States?
  9. It could be worse Spen. You could be married to Marjorie Taylor Greene.
  10. Starting Monday the ER Board will conduct free dancing classes for members in our new spacious ballroom! Carry on.
  11. I've learned from watching politics this year that the only thing that's important is Ravens football.
  12. Oh No.... THEM! NOT THEM!!!!
  13. And Frank! Don't forget about Frank. He still out there. Some say that he's the Leader of the Ant Men....a Herald for the Destroyer of Worlds.
  14. That's how it hit me too dee. It just makes good sense. With a long off season ahead, coupled with the fact that idleness is the devils workshop, the time just might be ripe because we HAVE KNOWLEDGE OF THE THINGS THEY ARE NOT WANTING YOU TO KNOW SECRETS OF THE WORLD IF YOU ARE A ROBOT OR CIA OR FBI AGENT THEN LEAVE NOW, YOUR KIND IS DOOMED PROCEED WITH CAUTION!!! Only we know the real mrscheney. We might have a duty to humanity: You cannot have INNER SOUL without YOU LEARNING THE TRUTH!!! They will not tell you the truth because to raise you dumbys causes them to PROFIT and TEACH YOU as a SHEEP! YOU ARE CATTAL TO THESE PEOPLE, YOU SHOULD LEARN THIS!!!
  15. Perhaps we can start a new movement. ERanon: Through a sea of alcohol. All of us are more than qualified to write for that.
  16. Don't read Qanon stuff while drunk. Read it when your on acid.
  17. Well....we knew he was a dirt bag all along.... There's a shit show going on behind the scenes there: 25 years it's been going on and you know the NFL is trying very hard to keep this under the radar....

  19. One of my sons refuses to watch horse racing due to this. I know of others who won't watch it anymore. 34 is too way, way too many. I love horse racing but I don't want to have all these deaths.

  24. We'll be singing When we're winning We'll be singing I get knocked down But I get up again You're never going to keep me down Pissing the night away Pissing the night away He drinks a whiskey drink He drinks a vodka drink He drinks a lager drink He drinks a cider drink He sings the songs that remind him Of the good times He sings the songs that remind him Of the better times Oh, Danny boy, Danny boy, Danny boy I get knocked down But I get up again You're never going to keep me down Pissing the night away Pissing the night away He drinks a whiskey drink He drinks a vodka drink He drinks a lager drink He drinks a cider drink He sings the songs that remind him Of the good times He sings the songs that remind him Of the better times Don't cry for me Next door neighbor I get knocked down But I get up again You're never going to keep me down We'll be singing When we're winning We'll be singing
