ESPN should go one step further and piss everyone off by hiring Skip Bayless back with Stephen A. Smith.

Smith doesn't want Bayless back debating with him. Takes his me time away, what they should do is hire Mad Dog Russo full time.

ESPN actually tried to hire him back a couple of years ago but FOX exercised their match clause. Also, with all this Shannon Sharpe stuff going on I think he would gladly take him back. Stephen A and Skip were a match made in Heaven (or Hell), whichever way you want to look at it 😂

Chase Burns looked every bit as dominant as he did his Freshman season. 6 innings of 2-hit baseball. Reds need to stop dragging their feet and pair him with Hunter Greene. But we all know they don’t care about winning so they will wait until next year.

I like the heat, but I've never experienced the kind of heat Phoenix has. I mention this because a few of us are going and I'm the only one looking forward to that trip.

Dress for the heat. Use open mesh ball caps if you wear one. Sunscreen! Avoid the heat of the day and pre-hydrate. Cut way back of caffeine and alcohol.🍷 🍻

Just a little parental bitching, cause we love you and your friends. I’ve been into equatorial regions unprepared and wound up miserably unprepared. A little self control goes a long way.

About two weeks ago I watched a documentary about Secretariat's life on Youtube. I think it's neat/cool all the amazing sports performances you have seen in your life!

I’m sure they left out the part where they shot the horse up with performance enhancing drugs and the other jockeys were paid off.

This tune goes well with your sage counsel. ☺️🥰

Thanks!

I heard some 20-somethings talking about how "optimistic and upbeat" the music was from back then. Living through all the protests, social upheaval, assassinations, 'Nam... I didn't remember it that way.

But when I went back and replayed titles in my head... even in protest, our music was always hopeful--and Chicago maybe more than most groups.

"Saturday in the Park" is a just pure, musical, word pictures, and I can't imagine today's young people writing or performing that song. Nothing bad about them, they've just been beat down by depressing movies and dark narratives, and burdened by scenarios of impending doom that they are somehow presumed responsible for fixing.

Take a break, kids. Life (analog) can be enjoyed without escapes or distractions.


And I bet that album cover was carved into real wood by real craftsman hands and photographed on actual film.
