@realspeckzo "The phrase in question is widely agreed by fact-checkers, news outlets (including Reuters, NYT, NPR, PolitiFact), and the original C-SPAN recording to be "I’m a Christian"—not "I’m not Christian."

John Boccabella, just because of the name.
Also, John Bateman, a catcher, who the Phillies got from the Expos in 1972. He only played one season - his last - with the Phils.

A tacit understanding

Yeah, I'm still around.

But a lotta people that meant something to me aren't.
Yet, the journey continues.

This goes out to my Delaware people.
I've heard that local music personality, Nik Everett (@nikeverett) died recently.
That's all I know.
If anyone can get back to me with more information, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Everyone should pay their fair share, but...
⏹️Every penny of tax that corporations pay will be passed onto consumers at the point of sale.
⏹️Tax rich individuals too much, they'll leave (and take their money with them), and/or they will be discouraged to create & innovate.

Who says good news doesn't happen anymore?
Found this historically relevant clip of Delaware Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Nik Everett.
From a "sans band" 1982 local cable performance.
Of particular interest to Delaware/Philly baby boomers.

@DennisLeizear
By the way, great game today!
St. Anthony's was a little too deliberate. A little too tentative offensively.
On your side, a lot of players contributed.

@DennisLeizear
Was playing w/ Grok to design (and REdesign) baseball hats. Tried to get it to reconstruct our old Nashua Pirates hats. Closest I got was below left. I asked it to go wild & make a Nashua Pirates hat the way it wanted to. Below right. That's a SMOKING design!

Tomorrow's Friday.
You know what that means.

@Jimfrombaseball It's important to say that in the infamous Roseboro/Marichal incident, it got started when Roseboro wanted Koufax to bean Marichal, but Sandy refused. So Roseboro beaned (or tried to bean) Marichal on the throwbacks.
The game was a lot more serious back then than today.

@Jimfrombaseball The '53 Dodgers were something else. Beaten by the Yankees (of course) in the WS that year. A Dodger team a little less potent (1955) finally got the job done a couple years later.
