If it took 16 years to notice clearly it makes no difference
I just found out that my spouse makes a PB&J sandwich using the same knife for both toppings, instead of one knife for each separate container.
We've been married for over 16 years. I cannot believe I just discovered this NOW.
Is it 1 knife or 2 when making PB&J? Chime in!

We can talk about the million things the White Sox need to do to become a real team again but “stop making the worst trades of all time every year” has to be on the list

The only consistent this century is that the White Sox will only spend big at reliever.

It’s certainly a choice to take a crummy talent return to salary dump Luis Robert then spend half that money on a reliever.

Getz shopping at the top of the Seranthony market
Source confirms the White Sox signed reliever Seranthony Dominguez to a two-year, $20 million contract, as Jeff Passan reported. Dominguez had a 3.16 ERA with 79 K in 62.2 IP last season split across the Orioles and Jays, with 12 postseason appearances added on.

Hi @rickyodonn.bsky.social first time long time also not first time — is there any chance in hell the Blazers pick finally conveys this year? And is there any trade the Bulls can make with Portland to assist that effort?
