If you are not the best pitcher in your league in 28 seasons.......not even one single time, how can you be the greatest of all time ? ....ZERO Cy Young awards. Nolan's great un -hitability somehow didn't quite transfer to winning, although he pitched on teams with a collective winning record (2104-2048), contrary to the bad team myth and excuse. Nolan's .526 career win % ranked 535th best last time I checked. 310 other pitchers were also better at keeping opponents off base than Nolan (WHIP #s). Nobody in MLB history was anything as bad as Nolan when it came to command and control......career leader in walks issued (by a TON) and wild pitches. He pitched for the Angels, Rangers , Astros and Mets. Nolan does Not show up in the top ten among Angels pitchers, top ten among Astro pitchers or top ten among Rangers pitchers in winning %. He does show up in the top ten among Mets pitchers in win % but behind Gooden, Seaver, Cone, Darling and Martinez. No doubt, Nolan had great, great un-hitable stuff at times but his control and command problems at other times cost him and his teams. Joe Poznansky, baseball writer, described Nolan quite accurately, imo. " Of all things pitchers do, Nolan Ryan could do them better, and of all things pitchers do Nolan Ryan could do them worse." Nolan was a great athletic talent but a two sided coin.

fair enough, Bevo, but your 90% perception might be based on what you've been taught at those trump apologist sites that will not report on his constant sleazy activity, pathological lying, hate and violence spreading rhetoric, incoherent ranting etc. Anyway Bevo. agree about having only two poor options. I think most intelligent people realize that. The cult worshiping types that are convinced that trumpy is the second coming of some religious savior are not intelligent people. IYO, Bevo, is it pretty reasonable to question the intelligence level of an individual that would buy a Holy Bible from a con man that was out sleeping with a porn actress while his wife was home with a new baby ? Every lie is “taken out of context”. Every felony is “lawfare”. Trump is a financially bankrupt and morally bankrupt man who clearly stated his desire to be a vindictive dictator if elected. He continues to lie about election fraud and did not peacefully transition power when he lost last time. This is not even about policy, it is about Trump being an enemy of democracy. (Biden is arguably better with policy, but that is way too nuanced to discuss here with posters who can only communicate via pasting their Twitter feed). Biden is not a poor choice. Choices are always made with context, and in the context, Biden is a great choice. This forum shows that these guys are a lost cause. The disinformation is too much. NBC cannot be trusted because they are too far left. Meanwhile vodka posts verifiably false lies from Twitter that he has to delete, buckeye posts social media satire as fact, and tigerCPA posts headlines from holocaust deniers. Well , you're right, aufan. Considering the context of this reality I guess Biden would have to be a relative great choice.
Bob Costas pretty well nails down trump and his brainless sheep, imo.
" He is by far the most disgraceful figure in modern presidential history. You have to be in the throes of some sort of toxic delusion in a toxic cult to believe that Donald Trump has ever been, in any sense, emotionally, psychologically, intellectually or ethically fit to be President Of The United States. "
I worry about some of these guys being sucked into this toxic delusional cult, ( TDC to go with TDS) especially Evil. Bevo...maybe not. I think he knows what trump really is.

Congrats doc. Your Reds came in and won the 3 game series in Philly. That 10th inning grand slam was pretty dramatic as was Harper's game 2 grand slam and HR barrage.

You might be badly underestimating the number of folks that might check in now and then, Bevo......folks with an open mind, a value for truth and facts and a sense of humor. Wish you'd secede from the trump cult and join in.

The most comical of Alabama'a 'voted' mythical championships come from the Bear Bryant years and the 6 claimed titles.
In 64 Bryant lost to Texas in the Orange bowl but claimed a NC. I don't know how you can claim a NC if you can't even win your bowl game. Arkansas, Michigan and Notre Dame were named MNCs by most of the selectors of the day.
In 65 the AP voted for Bama but Michigan State was the UPI MNC. 11 other 'selectors' of the day also voted for the Spartans.
In 73 there were 5 assorted pretend national champs (Ohio St.,Notre Dame,Michigan, Alabama & Oklahoma). Again, Bryant lost his bowl game to Notre Dame but Bama still claims a NC for that season.
In 78 Bama was named AP MNC but USC was the UPI MNC plus that of 8 other selectors. Oklahoma was also named MNC by 8 selectors.
1961 and 1979 MNC voting was mostly unanimous for Bama. 2 MNCs less mythical, 4 MNCs very very mythical.

Don't open if you're a fringe righty/trumper. Otherwise, a good chuckle , imo.
hen... we NEVER open your FB links anymore.
I'm happy for you, Bevo. Orange deity worshipers aside, looks like 50 folks viewed it.

I didnt watch, the Reds were on and I've seen enough of Kim Mulkey. I too was watching that ball game but switching to the Elite 8 gal's game between innings. I never liked Kim Mulkey either or Angel Eyelashes, however, I might lighten up on Mulkey because she was very gracious in her post game comments....even a little classy. Can't wait for the NCAA softball championships.

Speaking of 'sources ' could some of you conspiracy club fellers please share your latest conspiracies about the Baltimore bridge wreck ? I'm sure those places where you get your thinking instructions must have some real dillys for good entertainment. Thanks
