Well, Dylan Cease is off the table. He got a bigger contract than I expected. Glad it wasn’t with the Mets. He was low on my list of preferred starters. #LGM

A really nice summary of the Mets’ top prospects. Reading it should make you excited about the future. My takeaway: Reimer or Clifford at first, Pete at DH sometime in the near future.

Someone posted “Josh Allen lost to Davis Mills”, which is insane. Allen lost to the Texans’ defense. Especially Will Anderson and Bullock. 8 sacks and 3 TO. Bullock with 2 INT and 1 forced fumble.

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

To everyone who seems ready to trade Tong and/or Sproat for a proven pitcher who will have to be signed to a huge contract:

1. These guys are going to be very good for a very long time.
And will cost next to nothing.
2. Stearns is not an idiot.

Looking forward to Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey”, but with some trepidation. The Olympian Gods are such an integral part of the original poem and I can’t imagine how to portray them. He could banish them altogether or treat them like Superheroes. But if anyone could pull it off, he’s the one.

How Americans Feel About Immigrants and Immigration www.nytimes.com/2025/11/19/p...

An interesting poll. That a sizable minority of Americans identify immigration as the country’s biggest problem is a tribute to the power of propaganda, which is Trump’s greatest strength.

Seems like a good day to remind everyone that Jared Kushner advised Saudi Crown Prince MBS on how to “weather the storm” after his hit squad slaughtered American journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

With Josh Naylor returning to the Blue Jays, re-signing Alonso just got more important. They could maybe opt for Murakami, but it seems a lot more risky than sticking with Pete. #MetsSky #Mets #LGM

The Eagles continue to find a way to win. Incredibly small point differential for a team at 7-2, but it doesn’t matter.

This is very good news. But I don’t believe the matter will rest there. The conservatives will keep trying.

Here’s my fantasy wish list for #Mets #MetsSky FA signings this offseason: Edwin Diaz, Tyler Rogers, Ranger Suarez, Tatsuya Imai, Kyle Schwarber, Josh Naylor, Harrison Bader. It’s unlikely that we sign any of them, besides Diaz, but I’d like to see every one of them in a Mets uniform

Trump‘s brilliant plan of 50 year mortgages means that after your first 20 years making huge interest payments to a bank you will have paid down almost none of the principal and they will still own the house you are living in with 30 years to go. A scam from a career con man.

I f’ing hate gerrymandering and think it should be unconstitutional. But if the fascists are trying to destroy democracy, I sure hope Democrats will use every trick in the book to stop them.

Stagflation? How about a recession with a chaser of tariff related inflation?
🚨 CNBC: "Announced corporate job cuts surging past 1 million so far this year, with 153,000 new layoffs just in October according to Challenger. That is the worst October since 2003."
