We have tickets to see Tears for Fears in Saratoga, early July. I haven’t read any reviews. Really looking forward to it.

And if he doesn’t??

I just want to thank you for putting the date in the title. Nothing frosts my ass more than someone saying “today” or “tomorrow” without a date for reference. If you were next to me right now, I’d give you a hug.

A lot has changed since Tomlin and Harbaugh found glory over a decade ago. “Defense wins championships,” is an antiquated philosophy. And even if defense DID still win championships, I’m not sure throwing out a geriatric defensive backfield and hanging your hopes on a geriatric Von Miller is the right way to go about things. I’m happy that the O line has been addressed (finally), but I still think we need a WR who complements Diggs in the playoffs and so far … nothing. I think it’s a legitimate concern.

Not sure if anyone’s got tickets to see John Mellencamp, but he just abruptly canceled his show in Albany that was scheduled for tomorrow (Tuesday, June 13). I didn’t have tickets, but I considered it. https://q1057.com/john-mellencamp-cancels-upstate-new-york-show-heres-how-to-get-a-refund/ “Mellencamp just played 3 shows at the Beacon Theatre in Manhattan (June 5th, 6th and 7th) and he is scheduled to play Syracuse June 14th and Buffalo on June 16th. No word on the status of the Syracuse or Buffalo show at this time.”

First of all, enjoy the game!! And Lindor will come around. I get the batting slump, but the defensive slump perplexes me. Maybe he got some Buffalo bartender pregnant or something. 😂

Well, New Jersey has a handful of Lombardi Trophies. They win.

Yeah, there is a difference between being observant and crusading. But it goes both ways. McDermott deserves plenty of credit for helping to turn the franchise around. But let’s be honest … most head coaches with top 5 NFL QBs tend to find success. I’m perfectly fine with someone opining that McDermott has done a good job in leading the Bills to becoming a perennial playoff team, while also pointing out that one AFCCG and multiple early playoff exits = underperforming. It’s exactly how I feel.

Are people negative? Or observant?

You said over 20. I’m all for a little embellishment, but you’re not even close.

What are these 20 teams of which you speak? And Saratoga is not Albany.

They lost every game vs. Atlanta because of crappy pitching. If we can’t count on Verlander and Scherzer to be consistently good, we are fuct. They were both HORRIBLE in this series. The way DH has been “addressed,” is totally on Eppler. I can’t believe Ruf even BEGAN the season on the roster and yes … Vogelbach is pathetic. Lots of problems with the team, but I think the majority has been pitching. Terrible. The Diaz injury really hurt.

His first quote was fine. But he was baited into going further. When he did, I do believe that he said something he will regret. He didn’t say not to donate, but he did imply that donating was not a great idea. He should have kept his mouth shut after he first spoke.

Weird. I’ve never known you to be angry.

PPP says, “hold my beer.”

This is specifically related to the GIF button option at the top of the new post window … which is still not working … and you better believe I’ve reported this to my contact at the BBB.

Was Von Miller picked in the 90s?

Mama said, “It’s not the size of the wand; it’s the magic it produces.”

We’re the Yankees of the NFL. A regular-season bully that’s not built to go deep into the playoffs.

I would have been pissed if the Mets paid him what Texas did. That said, Texas’ GM should be fired. Anyone with a functioning brain knew this was gonna happen. 6’4”, 180 lbs., throwing 100+ MPH on a consistent basis is never gonna end well.

I’m in northeastern NY (Glens Falls/Lake George area) and we can see/smell the smoke here, too.

You really think that’s 1:1 ratio??

Top D against crappy starting QBs in the regular season. Absolute crap D against teams actually built to get to the Super Bowl. Good riddance.

It’s not limited to rookies. What happened with Hines was borderline criminal. Huge disconnect between Beane/McDermott/Dorsey. Beane drafts/acquires players who end up collecting dust on the sidelines. Hopefully, they’ve sorted this out.

The most polite firing of all time.
