Swept.
Not that it means anything, but, winning is better, always.

Arguably CC has value to the team that goes beyond the wins he generates with his ERA, though.

God, this game is just interminable.

Owning a pet also teaches responsibility.

Wait CC in the 8th? OK, one batter.

Well, nice outing for the big guy. One of the biggest positives of the season, if you think about it. Good comeback.

[37] True, and my wee ones lost their granny already so they’re experienced. I’m trying to push for a dauschund, good with kids, small enough for a Japanese house.

Longest I lived with a living creature since college.

$75 is the highest adoption fee I’ve paid. And I had to watch my grandmother come live with us for hospice in 1974, when I was 9. Mom’s an RN, so she got to deal with her mother’s dying from colon cancer. 5 years later I was burying Snoopy. It’s not fun, but death is part of life
