  1. And the airline found our luggage and returned it the same day, which is not bugging me. Even though it bugged me it was checked, tagged and sent on a completely different flight (a different thread for that).
  2. Actually, we did a seven-day circle tour of New England. The first five days belonged to my wife, with the stipulation that Day #6 was mine (Cooperstown). We flew in and out of Providence. I cannot recommend an airport. Cooperstown is about 2:00 from Albany. I suspect Syracuse is the same distance. You'll need a rental car. I'm willing to do a trip report. Members can private message me and if enough interest exists, I can put something together. No interest, then no report.
  3. And I made it home this morning, so I am able to watch the division clinching game. Actually glad the Cubs won yesterday.
  4. I've just checked in at the Comfort Inn in Cooperstown, NY. That is not bugging me. Two nights at $260 total. That is not bugging me. (given some the rates I have been paying the last few days). All the guests are here for the same reason.
  5. And this is the stuff I purchased yesterday. I head out on vacation Saturday and this stuff has two days to kick in. Never let me down before.
  6. Sorry I fell behind on this. Life had been busy lately. OFF: P Bennett Sousa, waived P J.C. Mejia, 60-day IL ON: P Thyago Vieira, selected 3B Josh Donaldson, selected The 40-man roster remains full.
  7. My bad, thinking David Clyde. First-overall pick of Texas, 1973 (bypassing Yount). Straight to the majors, 22 days after being drafted. Didn't pan out well. "He started one game in 1975, injured his shoulder and was demoted to the minors. He toiled there for three seasons, his maturation and development stunted by shoulder surgery in 1976. In 1978, the Rangers traded Clyde to the Cleveland Indians and one year later – at the age of 24 – he was gone from MLB."
  8. Some of us are old enough to remember David Wright. Hopefully, Schanuel has a better fate.
  9. The WIAA already does this for high schools. Your idea is the best way to go.
  10. Yes. Wouldn't be fair to Mitchell to not award him service time.
  11. ON: P Bennett Sousa, reinstated. OFF: P Justin Wilson, 60-day IL The roster is full at 40, plus five on the 60-day IL.
  12. ON: P Brandon Woodruff, reinstated. The roster is full at 40, plus four on the 60-day IL.

    I had friends who played soccer in high school. I ran cross country, and football players did not get along with neither of us. So I guess "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" situation. My first taste of watching the sport was the 1986 WC. I had to take a job in rural Wisconsin for a couple of years and the vibe I got was "only football and basketball players are athletes". I can understand if your school didn't have a team and none of your friends played soccer, as well as other niche sports. I missed large parts of the '10 and '11 World Cups because good luck finding a bar that will put the games on. So I tip my hat to you for being willing to try something new.

    I think it was 1998 MJS published a cartoon stating so, after the Rampage then Wave won their leagues within the previous twelve months.
  15. IIRC, Hardy only played one month the previous season, at AAA Indy.

    Nice recovery by the Americans last night (today) to earn the draw. However, that result means they didn't clinch advancement and a loss to POR on Tuesday means elimination.
  20. With regards to the NU situation, I think back to Penn State where I thought they would be performing at an 1-AA level for several years, only to rebound quickly.
  21. OUT: P Jason Alexander, outrighted. The roster is at 39, plus five on the 60-day IL.
  22. Is Sal Fasano the catcher J.J. Hardy slid into when he broke his ankle(?)
  23. OUT: OF Raimel Tapia, designated for assignment. IN: OF Sal Frelick, contract selected. The roster remains full at 40, plus five on the 60-day IL.

    Man City began their season at Lambeau and finished it as champions of Europe.
  25. The tenth President, John Tyler, has a living grandson.
