WannaBe: This one is from Henry Cho: "I'm changing the caller ID of my wife's phone number to Potential Spam" If you have not seen or heard of Henry, he is worth some of your time on YouTube.

WannaBe: So, again, the worker expressed and exercised the 1st amendment right(s), whether suspension is warrented or not is up to company/union policy. Not the administration, because this will be 0-9 in the Supreme Court. Another individual (who happens to be the president) also exercised ...

  Penguincw: Ah, just remembered that today is the Belmont Stakes.

Again, I'm "betting" $2 on Preakness Stakes winner, Exaggerator, finishing in the top 3 (Show).

Jays win, and Dodgers+Kershaw won yesterday. Just 3 back of the Giants in the division, 0.5 back of the Cardinals for the 2nd Wild Card.

---

This just came to me today, but I'd like to make the following predictions:

- Mariners make playoffs (likely win division, but will make it to the ALDS for sure)

- Cubs will face Giants in the playoffs (likely NLCS, where higher seed Cubs will lose to the Giants 4-2)

- Red Sox win the World Series in 2021 or 2023

(I can explain if you need to)

Let's see how many I get right.

  Penguincw: Well, Exaggerator did not finish on the podium, so -$4.20.

Even worse, after the Dodgers rallied twice vs. the Giants, they got the lead in the 10th, and lost. D:

Meanwhile in Arizona...

  WannaBe: It's (virtually) all over, Guppies need two goals with a minute left after that empty net goal by Pittsburgh.

Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: Pittsburgh have won 4 Stanley Cups in their storied history, and the clinching games were all won on the road.
Jun-12-16  Jim Bartle: And the Pirates and Steelers titles all on the road going back to 1960 and the Mazeroski game.

I was trying to listen to the hockey game and watch the Peru-Brazil Copa America game, which ended about two minutes apart.

True. 49ers fans had to drive thirty miles south to Stanford Stadium to watch them win the 1985 Super Bowl.

  WannaBe: This is really freakin' phissing me off, ESPN shows UCSB and Okla St game in progress, but I can't pick up any internet radio feed from either TuneIn, or Westwood One Radio.

Both web site advertised this NCAA Championship and had links all over the place. And I can't pick up anything. Ugh!!!
