In the movie "Santa clause" with Tim Allen how did the adults not know Santa existed? Who did they think was putting extra gifts under the tree overnight?

Hey @MLB - wanna get more kids watching baseball?

Maybe start with the commercials.

Watching the playoffs tonight with my kids and here's the rundown:
- Megan Fox selling ED pills in a red bodysuit
- The scariest movie trailer you've ever seen
- Sydney Sweeney in zero clothes promoting betting on sports

Leagues can't figure out why kids don't watch.

You don't need a Nickelodeon game. You're not the Savannah Bananas.

Just show baseball in a way I can leave on in my house.

Call me woke or whatever but I don’t think children watching baseball should be subjected to boner pill commercial, Sydney Sweeney naked gambling ad, Liberty Bibberty, and even more gambling ads every single commercial break

@MHIIisKing Not worried about the rotation next year, still very worried about the offense.

[Lindsay Crosby, big baseball guy @CrosbyBaseball]

Joey Votto with one out in the 4th: "I do not see the Braves scoring any more runs the rest of the way"

LITERALLY FOUR PITCHES LATER:

[Mark Bowman @mlbbowman]

Acuna's inability to secure this ball allowed two runs to score, including Stott's go-ahead run from first base

People keep saying Trump term II is the most corrupt administration ever, so I built a model to find out if it was true.

I took the UN's definition of corruption, turned it into eight criteria and 100 points, and scored the leaders history remembers for looting their countries: Marcos, Suharto, Mobutu, Abacha, Obiang, Putin.

Then I put every president since Eisenhower on the same scale, both parties, with every exoneration counted right alongside the convictions.

Nixon scored 41 and no other American President scored over a 25.

Trump's second term scored a 91, which ties him with Suharto and Mobutu and puts him above Marcos and Abacha.

So he is not only the most corrupt president in American history. At this pace he finishes his term level with the most corrupt rulers of the last hundred years.

PSA: don't come in my comments arguing about the results if you haven't read the full article, because ignorance is a choice.

Full article is up now on my Substack (link in bio) and it's free.

@tommyrod90 @pimpumpampom @notgaetti Trying to defend the way Contreras behaved is absolutely ridiculous.

[christopher collins @christopherco70]

@ijkandco @grok @angrywhale7 @elonmusk Brother it’s already illegal

[christopher collins @christopherco70]

@ratmannx @DanClarkSports Ok man, whatever you say lol. It’s fine to be wrong

[christopher collins @christopherco70]

@lake_bridger @BOSSportsGordo @ChrisCotillo Mexico is the home team so you are right BUT that requires them to be winning in the 9th and have scored 5 going into the 9th

[christopher collins @christopherco70]

@BOSSportsGordo This also assumes the game ends in 9, right?

[christopher collins @christopherco70]

@GarysheffieldJr I mean…what do you say to the other two teams that might also have only lost 1 game in this bracket? Can’t just dislike it because our guys didn’t get the job done.

[Dimitri Kourtis @D_Kourtis27]

Tiebreaker scenario if Mexico beats Italy tomorrow:

🇲🇽🇺🇸 advance:
Mexico scores 5+ runs.

🇲🇽🇮🇹 advance:
Mexico scores 4 runs of less.

🇺🇸🇮🇹 advance:
Italy win vs Mexico

@ratmannx @DanClarkSports To you, what is the difference between a blowout an beating the crap out of a team?

You think winning 5-4 is beating the crap out of a team?

[christopher collins @christopherco70]

@Alex172005_ @Supercrazy_2 @sheanorling Well, its actually runs/out recorded. If Mexico wins 5-4 without having to hit in the bottom of the 9th, Italy will have only recorded 51 outs as opposed to the USA’s 54 outs. So if it’s 11/54 for USA, and 11/51 for Italy, USA would win.

[christopher collins @christopherco70]

@jorgeriverah17 @Alex172005_ @sheanorling Believe it or not, run differential doesn’t matter at all actually.

[christopher collins @christopherco70]

@ratmannx @DanClarkSports Sure, but a 5-4 win for Mexico gets us there too. It doesn’t have to be a blowout. We don’t have to hope for a blowout.

[christopher collins @christopherco70]

@SeanArcher215 @DanClarkSports He will throw 4 innings

[christopher collins @christopherco70]

@ratmannx @DanClarkSports Nope, run differential means nothings. Need Italy to win or Mexico to win AND score at least 5
