"Motivation often increases after you begin. The lesson is not to wish you had more motivation, but to make starting as easy as possible." - James Clear

Java Frameworks have understood that. They make it easy to start and try something.

Reading a bio of Tim Raines recently reminded me of Rickey. On one level they had fairly different outlooks, but similar era and similar skill set in terms of getting on base and stealing bases

And persistence… until he passed away you never knew if he had really retired for good

He was for sure eccentric and I wouldn’t consider him a role model, but in terms of competitiveness, striking fear into opponents, confident results, dominating certain categories, getting on base and stealing them, and all round athleticism… he was sure one of a kind…

Happy Birthday Kotlin!

What they need is a Lloyd Moseby successful steal of second, for an inexplicable reason return to first safely and then steal second again. Just to cut game 7 tension

I approve this plan

Offence weirdly shuts off for certain games

Against the dodgers? Did they secretly beat the Brewers?

Cook Inlet Gull (American Herring x Glaucous-Winged hybrid) Resurrection Bay, Alaska

One of my favourite Alaska bird photos. Maybe not as photogenic as the puffins but for a gull nerd a Cook Inlet Gull (Glaucous- winged x American Herring hybrid) is pretty darn cool. Pretty happy with it as an example of in flight photography flic.kr/p/2roAdrN #gullnerd #gulls #hybridgulls #birdnerd

If the Cubs lose this game, they will lament the top of the 6th.

Put first two hitters on and then Tucker (strikeout swinging), Suzuki (line out) and Happ (strikeout looking) can't bring them home.

Suzuki's line out to Chourio in LF was a little unlucky: 101.6 mph exit velo, .500 expected average

The Cubs are stayin alive. What a comeback. Just need a W on Saturday! #cubs #chicagocubs #cubsnatiom

Yeah it’s pretty trouble… and that’s not even taking regional blackouts :(

Cubs wishing they had Cade Horton pitching right now :(

Seriously though yeah I think it is basically like that

Yeah there must not be an obscure rule where if there are no hits in the last 3 innings in game 7 of the WS it resolves to a joint WS win

This seems probable. The doesn’t get cancelled often does it?

This is very unfortunate.Was looking forward to the possibility of watching him perform in the playoffs :(
