We may see ML Baseball after all...
MLB plan for 2020 season to include approximately
80 games and expanded playoffs
Plan could also include DH in both leagues to protect the pitchers.
A truncated season of 80 or so games beginning in early July. Teams would only face division rivals and the same geographic division in the other league to keep games regional.
Teams would open the season in as many home parks as possible. That will cut down on travel and allow players and personnel to easily isolate at home with their families.
An expanded postseason format would send seven teams to the playoffs per league. The plan would be similar to an idea floated back during the offseason.
Starting the season in early July would require an abbreviated spring training to begin no later than mid-June. It is expected teams will have expanded rosters this season primarily to protect pitchers, who have to ramp up their throwing after slowing down during the pandemic.
One can only hope, right?

I usta have a boss named Frankie Visco who, whenever I made the tiniest mistake, would say to me "Jackson - you could fuck up a one car funeral".
Long gone as he is, he had an insane sense of humor and amazing outlook on life, which was, basically, everybody in the world is a fuckin' idiot.

Need I add anything to this? I don't think so...

He does have a way with words, doesn't he?
“The biggest political crime in American history, by far!” the president wrote in a tweet accompanying a conservative talk show host’s claim that Barack Obama “used his last weeks in office to target incoming officials and sabotage the new administration”.

A historic house in Lafayette, Louisiana, is being given away — but even though it’s free, there’s still catch.
Not only do owners have to move it, but it also comes with a seriously haunted history.
When realtor Sylvia McLain posted about the free house on her Facebook page, former residents and locals took to the comments to share supernatural horror stories.
“Free House! To Be Moved!,” McLain posted on March 2. “You may recognize this iconic home that is located on Verot School Road? It’s the old Vincent/Vallot/GrandView Nursery home, built in the late 20’s early 30’s. McLain Development recently purchased this land and home. In an effort to save the history of the home we are offering it to anyone who would be interested in moving it to another location for restoration.

By the way, New Jersey has one of the highest per capita infection rates in not just America, but the entire world. Over the past week, 32.8 percent of tests have come back positive in the state. Anyone know why?

I rag on Jersey for a reason.
For the record, y'all know I talk a lot about how fucked up NJ is. I was born and raised there, so I've seen the stupidity and corruption first hand my whole life. The state is going broke and nobody gives a flying fuck.
The state ranks No. 1 in the country for people leaving and moving somewhere else - that's a helluva legacy, isn't it?
That's the numbers of cases and deaths as of yesterday.
The common factor in this chart? Every single city and town named is run completely by Democrats. I have no idea how or even why that would be a significant factor or what it may or may not imply, but the facts remain. All Democrats.

Every one of them. Dooshbags.

Now it's more like 'mutant television'. No wonder kids are so fucked up these days.

Ever think about making your own Pasta?
Believe it or not, it's a lot easier than you think it is, and if ya got kids, you really need to do this with them. I learned how to do it from my grandmother (Nana Min) who was born in Italy, so this was just second nature to her.
There is little you can have to eat that's as satisfying or as comforting as a plate or bowl of fresh spaghetti or macaronis. If you wanna up your pasta game, ditch the dried stuff and create your own fresh pasta at home.
With the Marcato Atlas 150 Pasta Machine, it has never been easier to create fresh pasta. The pasta maker, which costs $47.19 (almost half price!), comes with a plain lasagna rolling press and two rolling cutters: one for tagliolini, one for fettuccine.
This machine is about as good a pasta machine as any you could buy, and it is ridiculously cheap for the kind of quality ya get for your money. You'll find it here:

The cases were all linked to a 29-year-old guy who who tested positive after spending time at five clubs and bars in Itaewon last weekend.
With around 7,200 people estimated to have visited the five clubs, officials fear an even bigger spike in infections — just days after the government relaxed social distancing rules last Wednesday.
Seoul on Saturday ordered more than 2,100 nightclubs, hostess bars and discos to close, with neighboring Gyeonggi province and Incheon city both also shutting their clubs on Sunday.

There had to be a time when California wasn't as fucked up as it is, right?
The streets of San Francisco's Tenderloin District have experienced a 300 per cent increase in the number of homeless tents since the coronavirus outbreak began, according to a federal lawsuit filed by the community and a law school.
Residents, businesses and the University of California Hastings College of Law are demanding the city clean up drug needles and human waste which have littered the streets and provide assistance to individuals living in sidewalk tents (like the ones pictured above), arguing they are at an increased risk of contracting COVID-19. About 400 tents currently occupy the neighborhood.
The cops and the Mayor won't do shit for these poor bastards.
