lol crocs ... "Queensland councils are jostling to host Olympic rowing as doubts grow over Rockhampton's crocodile-infested Fitzroy River venue for the 2032 Olympic Games."

Fell in love with the Texas Rangers stadium. Air conditioned! Bliss! And the standing-only section was amazing. Preferred them to our seats. Texas won two games over Yankees but lost the third night with Yankees avoiding the sweep with a pinch-hit solo homer in the seventh inning. #TexasRangers

We Should Appreciate Matt Wallner for the World-Class Hitter He Is Even if you think Matt Wallner is a pretty good hitter, you're still probably underestimating him. The outfielder's combination of on-base skills and fearsome power put him an the most elite class of offensive players.
