N.O.B.

Technically...you should have typed New Jersianites. But it works for both...especially since he’s a Yankees fan.

Remember this time last year and how much it sucked? Absolutely ZERO sports to watch other than Korean Baseball at 5:00 a.m. (4:00 a.m., Satan's time). Kook had just defeated the 'rona but couldn't smell or taste anything. I was using STORE BRAND TOILET PAPER. We stood in line to get into the store to buy groceries that mostly were way too picked over.

Pro: Gas was cheap and I got a lot of naps in.

Bad times, man. Baaaaaad times.
 
Kroger in Middlesboro now stocks and sells beer. Pic below. Tomorrow morning, I fully expect the sun to rise in the north.

The new kroger store just down the road from my home has a bar with 6 or 7 booths and twelve beers on tap. i live within two miles of two krogers and less than a mile from a third. one has a liquor store. the one with a bar also has live music starting around noon—usually a solo horn or guitar player. i’m well heeled with kroger stores. 😎
 
So you’re high?
I would have played better high -- or at least I couldn't have played (i.e. hit) any worse. This was far and away my worst tournament in like the history of ever. Everything felt off. I was anxious, way out in front, taking beautiful pitches and then swinging at anything and then hitting everything I did swing at off either the handle or the bat's cap. Hell, I would have swung if they'd rolled the f#cking ball up there...but I looked good dammit. At least I looked good.
 
That's a start. Here is a look at a typical wine & spirits section of a local grocery store near me.

Saw this morning Kroger - Middlesboro just opened a package store next door yesterday selling wine and spirits. Anyway, Meteor Crater City had been dry since the late-1950s. It's amazing modern conveniences other communities take for granted are finally available around this area.

Same way in the county i’m from in eky—dry since ‘40s until three years ago. now even the dollar store sells.
 
Gut wrenching to watch that vigil. Those kids loved each other. There are people in this very thread that have experienced tragedy and things of this nature bring back those emotions. We remember that hurt and sadness. I hope God brings peace to those kids, Coach Cal, and most importantly Terrence's family.

She used to be this cute little news gal

Then she got a little dumpy and became besties with the Caliparis

Now she’s just kind of annoying. Not the worst, but seeing her everyday during COVID lockdown was pretty grating. (Wife watched her midday show)
 
What Would You Do Scenario

Your pitcher is going on a complete game, perfect game. However, the hitters are starting to dial in on him and are hitting it to the warning track as he starts to tire. It's the 9th inning and the score is still 0-0 because your offense decided to stay home. The next player up is their slugger and he's itching to ruin the day for everyone. What do you do?

1. Take your chances and see what the pitcher can do with him.
2. Call the bullpen and hopefully 'share' a perfect game.
3. Intentional walk and hope there still might be a no-hitter.

I’d give him the heater, Ricky.

I'm assuming the woman in the bottom pic ate the woman in the top pic.
 
I just watched Vision Quest, again, and I gotta say Elmo’s “Pele” speech is one of the most underrated pre-game speeches of all time. In fact, it could very well be my personal fictional fave (Kurt Russell’s rendition of Herb Brooks’s Miracle On Ice speech is my #1 real speech).
