It's currently 73 degrees in Houston and 77 in International Falls, MN.
Why is Christian Javier trying to decapitate the Astros' outfielders?
Today is the 20th anniversary of the death of one of Houston's finest teachers of our era, the University of Houston @UHouston political philosophy professor, Ross Lence. Dr. Lence was a gifted teacher and wonderful friend to hundreds of students, and the funny stories about him still resonate in the university's culture 20 years after his death. One of those stories is the comment that Dr. Lence wrote at the end of Orlando Sanchez's @orlando_sanchez first 3-page paper for his first class with Dr. Lence (few students ever received a passing grade on their first 3-page paper for Dr. Lence): “Mr. Sanchez, I requested a three-page analytical paper on the subject, not the after-dinner speech you have presented here.”
@mattbramanti What do you expect? ICE wasn't involved. ;^)
@fyrebear Is he off the blood thinner therapy for the deep vein thrombosis he experienced earlier this year?
@hora_jerry @MidwestGolfJake "It's not the arrow, it's the Indian."
But for this call by home plate umpire Brennan Miller, the Astros would have tied the game in the bottom of the 9th inning. Astros lost 5-4.
Haven't seen this yet. Christian Walker was going to get ball four on a challenge here. He looked into the dugout though, and then challenged. Brennan Miller says, "it's not my fault" and denies it because he looked into the Astros dugout.
Andy Bailey's @AndrewDBailey HNI ("Huge Nerd Index") is a reliable ranking of NBA players based on various advanced statistical measures. Smart was 174th last season among 379 NBA players who played at least 500 minutes during the regular season. The only players on the Rockets with a lower ranking were Okogie, Holiday, and DFS. Adams was lower, but only because of his season-ending injury.
I think you're concern for his demise is a tad premature: 2026 U.S. Open 4th 2026 PGA 14th 2026 Masters 2nd 2026 Players 22nd 2025 Open: 1st 2025 U.S. Open: 7th 2025 PGA: 1st 2025 Masters: 4th 2025 Players: T20 2024 Olympics: 1st 2024 Open: T7 2024 U.S. Open: T41 2024 PGA: T8 (arrested) 2024 Masters: 1st 2024 Players: 1st 2023 Open: T23 2023 U.S. Open: 3rd 2023 PGA: T2 2023 Masters: T10 2023 Players: 1st 2022 Open: T21 2022 U.S. Open: T2 2022 PGA: MC 2022 Masters: 1st 2022 Players: T55 2021 Open: T8 2021 U.S. Open: T7 2021 PGA: T8 2021 Masters: T18 29 Tournaments 7 Wins; 20 Top 10s; 23 Top 20's; 1 Missed Cut
@RobertLusetich @BradleySKlein @AlanShipnuck I don't think the prosecution's case against either Walters or Mickelson was strong. But Mickelson's abandonment of Walters at trial was abominable treatment of a friend.
@RobertLusetich @BradleySKlein @AlanShipnuck I think Walters bent over backward to be restrained in his treatment of Mickelson to allow readers to conclude on their own that Mickelson is untrustworthy and unprincipled.
@RobertLusetich @BradleySKlein @AlanShipnuck I would bet that Billy Walters is not surprised in the least by the latest news about Mickelson.
Sorsby's legal advice perplexes me. My understanding is that he is still subject to multiple criminal investigations. Yet his legal team has allowed him to make multiple public statements that he placed dozens of bets on University of Cincinnati games while he was a member of the team. I'm sure there is a lot that we don't know, but making public statements regarding involvement in matters that are the subject of criminal investigations is usually not a prudent thing to do.
@Alex_Skandalis I'm hopeful that Jim Crane's involvement will push the Houston Open into the championship series, but I'm not even sure of that. I agree on Champions and the Tour Championship.
Reading the reports on the new PGA Tour Championship Series ($30 million in sponsor commitment for an event), I'm wondering whether Texas will even have one tournament in the Championship Series?
R.I.P., Chris Reynolds, the longtime, prominent Houston civil trial lawyer. Chris was a wonderful friend and colleague to many, and he will be sorely missed: kleinfh.com/obituary/96151…
It's like flopping in the NBA. It's not a good reflection on the competence of Tour management that MLB management (not exactly a forward-looking group) instituted a pitch clock that has sped up games and not been a major hindrance to players before Tour management has done anything to deter slow play.
@RedNinetyFour I would take Morey back as GM of the Rockets in a second. Especially now that he is unlikely to bring in Harden to be assistant GM again.
@RobertLusetich @bballforever_ I think he won one with the Celtics as a reserve in the 1985-86 season.
Lee Sinins developed a stat called Runs Create Against Average, which is a handy way to compare hitters, particularly from different eras. It shows how many more (or less) runs a hitter created than an MLB average hitter during the same period. Bobby Bonds played from 1968-81 and was 11th in RCAA during that period. There are many players in the HOF who were not as good as Bobby Bonds.
