I heard it was a disaster. Nothing, our power was out for 3 days so it didn't run. It was 11 degrees for two days and then It was back in the 50's-60's a few days later. A generational storm is the exception, not the rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see not being able to announce one that is currently still in the playoffs, however. It could be that MLB doesn't want announcements during the WS. I know I've heard that before but was never sure how concrete it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard it was a disaster. I got lucky and my power never went out since I live close to a fire station and I pay a constant rate for my electricity. But people who were on variable rate plans got fucked. All those smaller electric companies like Griddy went out of business cause their customers couldn't afford to pay the crazy ass prices which in turn meant they couldn't pay the providers.

This argument is stupid and you know it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This argument is stupid and you know it. I pay more in gas for cooking than gas for heating in the winter lol. Winters here are pretty nice for the most part. Which is a big reason I don't want to move back to Illinois full time. Maybe when I become wealthy enough I'll buy a summer home in Illinois. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hankchifan Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 You can cross off Bruce Bochy from the list. He just signed with the Texas Rangers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're better than the Rangers but the new manager wouldn't be stuck with a pretty much set roster in Texas. 2 hours ago, Dick Allen said: These guys live in a rental during the season. Very few actually live in their towns all year. Chicago wins every year for favorite MLB road city. Location won’t hinder the search. Texas has no state income tax.

They get hit with a tax bill from stares with income tax based on days they managed there. It's pocket change to these guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
