For those of us whose singular talent is being able to talk the ears off a brass monkey, twitter is really stultifying.

@DrAllyLouks This is a family social-media platform, ma'am. It's one thing to talk about the "bees' knees" (heck, our dogs have been called that), but you're venturing into dangerous anatomical territory with this post.

@DrewBoylhart @KentMurphy Utley was supposed to get a 98-mph fastball in his ribs, but Snydergaard couldn't get it done. As Tom Hallion told Terry Collins, "You had your shot right there."

@trisgottachill @KentMurphy @grok For context, read the reply to lolumad's post below. The "hard slide" in question occurred when the teams had last played during the prior season. The pitcher, Syndergaard, was instructed to hit Utley as payback. The umpires were expecting it, hence the quick ejection.

@DrAllyLouks @eleanordotcomm State-siders here. As adjectives go, "phlegmatic" is pretty complimentary. Who wouldn't like to have the same disposition as, say, Queen Elizabeth II or Commander Adam Dalgliesh?

@JohnCotterMedia Go check out the six episodes of "Police Squad!" from 1982 (especially Leslie Nielsen's monologue during the interview with Mrs. Twice in the first episode).

@CheriJacobus Not a fan. Even if his famed laptop was only full of dick pics, Hunter still should have served a 6-month minimum for income tax evasion, should not have accepted a compensated directorship at Burisma while his father was vice president & should not have bonked his sister-in-law.

@DannyAbriano Huzzah! Maybe POTUS can drop the "T" for the more visually accurate Rump!

@EdwardGLuce @LeonKrauze Lots of rot stateside. Alway has been, not least among politicos, athletes, and journalists.

@loyaltyofdogs @SouthLadyCooks How about a DQ Blizzard on this hot day?!

@NYNJHarper What baseball CEO is going to 'fess up to the negligence of "roster miscalculations"? That would be tantamount to asking the team owner to punch his ticket to Palookaville.

@JustinWolfers Tom's Witte great question to this answer posed by WaPo's Style Invitational:

Answer: Platypus, sourpuss, and pus.

Question: What are three things one doesn't wish to encounter "down under"?

@sny_knicks @CartonShowWFAN Knicks fans since 1968 here. NY deserves a better owner than this schlub.

@greggnunziata Grassley's plenty corrupt (even in his sleepy dotage). Still, even for the cynic, the pervasive rot running through the current crop of GOP officeholders is something to behold.

@TheRickWilson If Trump's end seems near, a blanket pardon will no doubt be forthcoming (whether or not Trump has the mental capacity to issue it). Blue-state AG's should be evaluating and prepping for indictments against Trump apparatchiks for bona fide state crimes.

@DecodingFoxNews No mention, either, of Trump's fecal incontinence. Healthy 79-year-old men do not wear male diapers (Trump's is the size of a microwave).

[Steve & Nancy W @750002miles]

@DecodingFoxNews Throw in Watters, Gutfeld and Hannity for good measure.

[Steve & Nancy W @750002miles]

@MJMcKean Watters, Gutfeld and Hannity all seem closeted (the latter could've have been a wingman for a priest "counseling" altar boys).

[Steve & Nancy W @750002miles]

@Mickeypaws1 @iaindwelch Yep, spring is the season for turtle-crossing saves in our neck of Pennsylvania's woods. 👍

@Hustlediva1 @SNYtv In top of the fifth, no runs on two hits, a mishandled ball, an alert back-up, and a third-degree assault.
