In the US, it appears that the funeral will be televised by ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, MSNBC, FOX News, NewsNation, Bloomberg, C-SPAN, Telemundo, and of course, BBC America.

This is the halftime score I expected, but the first quarter gave me some false hope for about an hour.

I know playing 8 guys in the box vs Rodgers sounds like suicide but at some point you have to stop the run and make him throw it.

This. Need to have a guy with options who can start the year at AAA and come up when you inevitably land a starter on the IL. Make Martin your 5th starter and then who comes up when someone gets injured?

Wow, either the Bears OL is way better than I thought or the Packers defense really sucks.

Judge hit 58 and 59 today. 2 away from the AL record (and the major league non-asterisked record)

Stupid penalty on the opening drive. Maybe GB scores anyway, but you can't give Rodgers 15 free yards like that.

Twins just not gonna help us.

Can't win without a QB. New coach will have them back on top but it will take a couple years.

He might be reading this from Madison.

Sox have more games remaining with the Twins and have fared better against them, so Twins sweep is 100% the best outcome.

How many of those people are left (aside from the obvious one)?

Don't remember where I saw this, but Twins are now 2-98 in their last 100 games at Yankee Stadium. Can that really be true?

I'm with you on this. Pitcher must be on the rubber, catcher must be in the catcher's box. Other 7 guys can be anywhere in fair territory you want to put them.

Not really. She had been skipping more and more of her duties due to health and mobility issues. I had a great grandmother who lived to 95. When it's time, you just know it.

Her passing was just announced a few minutes ago. Charles is referred to as "The King" until he chooses his royal name.

Has its own thread but will also note here: Queen Elizabeth II, 96

Clearly B is the first priority, but you have to give at least some consideration to A if you want to have fans.

What I've noticed about Abreu is that when he hits a routine grounder and is going to be out easily, he dogs it down the line, but when he sees that it's going to be close, he goes full gas. To me that's the right approach to maximizing the returns on your effort.

No Friday classes so I can stay up late to watch this. Will I though? Probably not.

Starting 2B? No, but I'd consider him for a utility role ahead of Harrison/Garcia, and yes I know Garcia has 2 more years guaranteed but he needs to be gone. If nobody will take him in a trade and pay even 25% of his salary, then DFA him.

Agreed that the system is bad, but also the obscene number of injuries with the ML club have had a lot of guys playing above their level and/or out of position.
