  1. I just saw a patient in our cardiac ICU (in Minnesota) who was transferred from a large southern state because that state had zero ICU beds left.
  2. Controlling diabetes is vastly more difficult than simply rolling up your sleeves to get a vaccine. COVID vaccines are now widely available, free, safe, and simple. I don't think it is a fair analogy. I don't think hospitals can ethically refuse to care for the unvaccinated (as personally tempting as that might be), but I do think that insurers (famously not beholden to morality) could/should consider not paying for that care, or at least having a different scale of coverage for the unvaccinated and stupid.
  3. I'd like to point out that basically from the second I posted these words of wisdom, Kieboom has been on an absolute tear and looks awesome. You are welcome.
  4. Kieboom just does not look like a major leaguer. I sure hope I'm wrong, but I'm not seeing a lot of room for optimism in his outlook.
  5. Ah. That sucks. I'm in MN so never have to deal with Nats blackouts.
  6. I'd pay for mlb.com just for this game (if I didn't have it already). They are showing all of Max's Nats career highlights. There might be some tears here.
  7. There is no athlete I've loved watching more as an adult than Max Scherzer. If this is the end for him as a Nat, what a privilege it has been. I've watched nearly every start and there are so many fantastic memories. He deserves to go wherever he wants, so, if he's traded, I'll just be happy for him. I'll be cheering for him wherever he goes.
  8. I wonder if getting Adams means that Gomes is being seriously shopped around.
  9. Acuna's confirmed with an ACL. That sucks. Hate the Barves, but that guy is fun to watch.
  10. That was a scary start for Max. First 3 innings he was painting the corners with his normal great stuff. 4th inning he had nothing - no movement, no command at all. Pray it was just an off day and not an injury...
  11. This is a brilliant and devastating article. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2021/06/how-donald-rumsfeld-deserves-be-remembered/619334/
  12. Wow. He hit that a mile and a half. As hot as anyone can be.
  13. This is nuts. Philly should never live this down. Clown show.
  14. This has been a hell of a game. Scherzer was phenomenal. That play by Avila just now was awesome. Fun stuff. One more...
  15. There is not a single day that goes by in my life where I do not think about the Dunning-Kruger effect.
  16. Damnit - that looked like an ACL for Robles. God I hope I'm wrong... EDIT: If he's staying in the game, its not an ACL. Phew.
  17. I believe this is our first clown pounding of the year.
  18. What a throw. Did not expect that from Schwarber.
  19. Some of my favorite pictures from a recent trip to Puget Sound. Lots of birds. Also had a great time watching a fox family with playful kits.
  20. That was an unexpectedly really fun game. After the day started with Soto hurt and dreading Corbin starting, this felt great.
  21. I think this is going to be a very long season. At least Corbin found the zone better in the 1st...
