That’s a bummer. Neely in total control almost the whole night and still leaves the mound in a 3-run hole.
Sends tingles up my spine even with the emoji!
There is some disconcerting evidence to back up your cynicism. Still, the problem doesn’t suggest an obvious solution. After all, if we can’t...
I think I agree with you on some important aspects here. If a singular interest has captured multiple branches of our republic (e.g. media and the...
I appreciate your views. I do think that if we believe that our citizens want quality news, then producing quality news will be where companies...
