Washington mens basketball continues to just good enough to be mediocre which makes them irrelevant.

Left handed bullpen depth, low cost and little risk. Likely going to Tacoma.

Yeah, but they spend money on Free Agents, so they must be good

Come on, you know that light is moving left to right and drinking time started two hours ago.

Win probability is the single dumbest metric in sports.

I have admit, when I looked at the A's boxscore, I first thought T. Ferguson was @saturdaynightlive.bsky.social Turd Ferguson.

Amounts keep changing, now 3-5 in areas outside Seattle proper? 12 hours ago it was a trace.

I am convinced that Trump will be a "do nothing" president again. He will get some tax bill passed to help the rich, then play golf. Only if a SCOTUS position comes up will he be an issue. All his blathering only becomes a concern because people repost it 5000 times a day. Ignore the buffoon.

I saw more than two dozen posts on X about Trump's stupid Greenland/Canada comments. Another few here. He is an idiot, but nothing is going to come of it other than the US being an international embarrassment. Don't stare at social media folds, it is repetitive negative.

Good luck with that. Voters will vote if it connects to their self interest, telling them they are lazy and stupid will not increase participation. Democrats have to connect to these people in a way that motivates them.

That is the issue, moving away from the blue collar/union voters to grab moderate Republicans has become a problem. Dems have to take care of the base first and have been losing them for a decade. Can't be everything to everyone and expect to win elections

Ohio has moved significantly right over the last decade, once a swing state, today it is almost entirely Red. Brown, a great person, is a causality of that movement

If you don't excuse those voters, and find a way to connect with them, then the GOP will control national politics for the future. Most Republicans are slim buckets, but they get out and vote and move their agenda forward.

Exactly. Taking the high road in politics is rarely going to get a win. If Dems want to control the national agenda, they have to get into the muck and stop trying to rise above the fight.

The Dems have to do a better job of using media to their advantage. The GOP lies continually, but the Dems rarely fight back, that has to change. As for stimulus checks, that is a Covid thing and really were far more of an economic, than partisan, policy.

I'm blaming the Democrats for not doing a better job in the 2024 election. How did they lose unions? Blue collar workers? the middle class? How did they become a single issue party around abortion? They have to make the tent bigger, connect to more groups.

It was an awful event but the win by Trump in 2024 is really about the Democratic party. Dems have become out of touch, elitist, too extreme in a Puritan country. I'll credit the GOP, they move to where the voters are and don't expect them to move to a party position.

Another Seahawks game and another offensive line gaffe.
