If we pay him Garcia money people may think he's still good.

We had a great guide. Just amazing. There is a whole other city from that side.

When I brought my wife to Chicago for the first time she wanted to do all the tourist stuff. I was a bit appalled at the thought. We did a river tour first and I was in full tourist mode for a week. We had a great time and I learned a lot about the city. I have refused to take her to a Cubs' game. I have my limits.

Because Tony never tries to pull a miracle out of his ass.

We're so sorry if we caused you any pain

Or they need Tony to say something stupid.

How many different networks have carried at least one game this year?

Or D. ESPN Thank you and ESPN

I wonder if MLB is blacking me out on this game because A. I subscribed in Texas B. I'm currently in Springfield? C. My cardiologist told them I am suppose to take in easy.

Remember when he was amazing for Chicago Cubs

Or just Y As in Y aren't you playing better?

But you're a bad ass ninja warrior with lightening hands.

I have a 36 gallon tank. $140 was my last fill. I'm pulling a trailer and getting 9 mpg. Oil companies love me this summer. That 5% rebate my credit card is giving me will add up.

Starting in the 1990s the gun industrial complex realized that hunters were a nice market but they could sell millions more by selling to the rest of America. They ratcheted up the advertising and within a couple years they dropped hunting related ads to about 10% of their overall budget. The most iconic ad of that era appeared in Ladies Homes Journal. I forget the handgun, Baretta 9mm probably, it was sitting on the kitchen table with the tag line Home insurance. Companies are getting rich by making Americans afraid. Drug testing companies manipulate Americans into believing most people on assistance are drug users and we ought to buy millions of their drug testing kits. States discovered that most folks on assistance weren't drug users. We stopped locking up non violent drug offenders. The for profit prison industry convinced Americans to lock up undocumented workers. Another nice group of non violent offenders that they can profit from. There is a lot of money to be made by making America seem full of problems.

I forgot about that one. Better than car jacking and where to find masks.

Multiply Greg by several million, toss in some great Madison avenue targeted marketing, "Here's Your Man Card", and you understand the gun problem in America.

I thought it was worse in the 90s.

He's an easy guy to like.

Best thread Greg has ever started.

He's looking like an athlete who wants to play in the MLB. He's about thirty over?

I kept thinking he was close to some breakthrough.

Menechino will fix him just doesn't have the same feelings as the old Coop will fix him.

Be nice or he's quitting and going to Japan.

And that's arguably the hardest thing to fix.
