@emzanotti He is correct. Public education started as a backlash to Catholic education rising in the late 19th century. I'm just the nerdy historian though.
When people say we don't need more people with "useless" history degrees...I tend to disagree.
For Florida Woman of the day, I would like to recognize Jessica Holloway. She was detained while selling homemade wine from a cooler during a children’s soccer game in the Tampa area.
Nelson Velázquez’s first swing in the big leagues for the #stlcards is a game-tying three-run home run against the #Cubs….the team that drafted him.

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Abner Uribe was suspended for one game by Major League Baseball for crotch-chopping toward the St. Louis Cardinals dugout following a strikeout earlier this week. Uribe is appealing the suspension.
Full disclosure….I love money. I hope everyone can make lots of it!! I don’t even mind spending my money on things I love and enjoy. I’m just annoyed by millionaires and billionaires fighting over money and the thousandaires paying the actual bill. 🤷♀️
Millionaires & billionaires are gonna fight and the people that will pay the ultimate price are the families wanting to watch a game in person and the young guys trying to make a way for themselves by playing baseball. 🤷♀️
BREAKING: As expected, MLB proposed a hard salary cap to union officials today as part of the next CBA, sources tell ESPN. The salary floor for teams beginning in 2027 would be set at $171.2 million which includes player benefits with the ceiling at $245.3 million.
One of the wildest stories you may read today ⬇️
A couple accidentally showed up to a game with tickets to the next night's game
So they bought 2 more tickets and ended up catching Willy Adames' home run ball
Then they came back the next night with their original tickets, sitting nearly in the exact same spot as the night before ...
Then Adames hit another home run and they caught it AGAIN 🤯
