Why regulate the number of pitchers at all? There is a 26 (or 27) player limit - let the teams decide.

This is not correct - Ketel Marte is 130 games behind Luis Castillo for the DIamondback record.

Mike Trout (Angels) is closest, it seems - 355 games behind Garret Anderson.

Terry Taylor, an infielder who made over 200 starts at 3 different infield positions, was a career .253 hitter with just 8 home runs in over 5900 at bats during the dead ball era. He was though a plus fielder by all accounts and a fast aggressive baserunner.

If people are bloodthirsty with or without religion, what is the point of religion?

When? In 2028?

She would have to move to a State with a Senate election in 2028.

She chose not to run for re-election to the House. I don’t know how you expect her to retain the seat.

The party does not have that authority or power.

Misogyny and racism are not synonymous. Or close. You raised both.

Unlike Jasmine Crockett, who waited to the last minute to file, Kamala Harris did not seek or ask to run for President. She was the only available choice to run after Biden, predictably, proved to be not up to the task.

The problem with the misogyny argument, at least in a Texas for US Senate is that Kay Bailey Hutchinson ran against men 3 times for US Senate and won all 3 elections.

Weren’t all American gold medal wins “a powerful statement of American pride and resilience?”

The Grammys are all pop and rap because those are the artists and fans that really care about them.

Charlotte 49er basketball coaches, at Rice, January 11, 2026.

Rob Lanier, Rice Head Basketball Coach, at Rice’s Tudor Fieldhouse, January 11, 2026.

Coaches in the Charlotte at Rice game are dressed in all black. What’s the occasion?

The best time to resist was November 2024.

Our best opportunity to “make it stop” was in November 2024.

Voters tend to elect and retain candidates that are beholden to corporate interests.

There are very few winnable House races with just 2 candidates. And who is being bought once they are there is public record.

The one thing the founders could not count on is that the American people would allow a man of Donald Trump’s low character and unbridled greed and narcissism anywhere near the levers of power.

No, people in a majority of districts elected Reps to go to Washington and represent oligarchs.

It’s always impossible to govern when you look for excuses. People have an option to either vote for the candidate that has been bought or vote for the one that hasn’t.

Every House member is up for re-election in 11 months. Voters will pass judgment then on whether they have failed or not.
