PETA wants baseball to stop using the term bullpen and start calling it the arm barn. The animal activist group claims the term bullpen 'devalue(s) talented players and mock(s) the misery of sensitive animals.
I can't believe the things people get themselves riled up about...the misery of sensitive animals. I'm sure every bull in the country finds the term bullpen offensive.

PETA's survey said 95.4%  In a world where there are 10 genders, offended bulls doesn't sound all that far fetched!  |

I went to the doctor last month and had to fill out all the annual forms - I couldn't believe how many boxes you could check under gender... all I could do was laugh.

Face it Doc, the world is passing us by... and, frankly? I'm OK with it. Maybe it's God's way of making us fear death less?  |

A couple years ago I watched a movie on Netflix called I Dont Feel at Home on Earth Anymore and sometimes that’s the way I feel. It was a very quirky movie with Elijah Wood and Melanie Lynskey (Rose from Two and a half Men). Worth the watch if you havent seen it.
I’m retiring in June so hopefully I’ll only have to tolerate this Woke stuff for another 8 months. It’s quite interesting spending every day on a liberal arts campus!

The Houston Chronicle just put out a hitpiece on the Atlanta Braves Chop, calling it racist....seriously, F these people
If they think sports are racist, don't watch them....its that simple

Face it Doc, the world is passing us by... and, frankly? I'm OK with it. Maybe it's God's way of making us fear death less? I’m a Cleveland Indians fan there is absolutely nothing offensive about the term “Indians” by itself….. those whom are allowing themselves to be offended by it have serious psychological issues….. I wish I could be nicer about it, but of everything to get offended about getting offended by a sports name is insane. Especially when it could so easily be ignored………. The Braves are going to in the crosshairs next I hope they don’t change but I’m sure they will just the society we live in |

It’s quite interesting spending every day on a liberal arts campus! Oh, the stories I'm SURE you could tell! My maternal grandfather lived to be 100. He was always are VERY happy, optimistic man. Not educated. He was a farmer, who often worked in other people's fields to make ends meet. Loved music. Loved God. Retired early, at the age of 63, and very likely got the HIGHEST return from Social Security than any person in the US. I think he paid into it, minimally, for 2-3 years.... Then drew a monthly check for 35 years! But, in the last 5 years of his life, he became very depressed and bitter. He hated the world. He didn't agree with ANYTHING that was going on. (ie: Bill Clinton Presidency) ALL of his friends were dead. He'd brighten up when I had time to stay for a while, and talk to him. But, I lived several hours away and had my own new family to attend too. I didn't get to see him nearly as much as I would have liked. I plan to move to the Meta-verse in another 15-20 years. I'm sure it will be MORE fun! |
