Strange things happen when you're married to a supermodel, I guess. Justin Upton (nee Verlander) threw 6 hitless innings last night with no walks. He didn't hit anybody, and no errors were committed behind him. He pitched to one batter over the minimum. How? On one of his 10 Ks he threw a wild pitch and the batter reached. They took him out after 6. His pitch count was 90ish, so coming off TJ surgery and with a postseason they hope extends a long time, they were never going to let him try for the no-hitter.

Um... In the last pic, to the right of the 6th track behind where the guy is holding that pole, do you see Puff the Magic Dragon? -

Dinosaur tracks from around 113 million years ago have been uncovered at Dinosaur Valley State Park in Texas after a severe drought dried up a river. Situated alongside the Paluxy River outside Fort Worth, Dinosaur Valley State Park allows visitors to observe dinosaur tracks and camp along 20 miles of trails. It was one of the many areas impacted by a statewide drought last week. “Due to the excessive drought conditions this past summer, the river dried up completely in most locations, allowing for more tracks to be uncovered here in the park,” Stephanie Salinas Garcia from the park’s press office told CBS News. Dinosaur tracks from around 113 million years ago have been uncovered at Dinosaur Valley State Park in Texas from a severe drought drying up a river. Dinosaur Valley Park / Paul Bake Normally covered by water and sediment, the new tracks in the riverbed are now clearly visible to visitors. The tracks are believed to belong to two species, including the theropod Acrocanthosaurus, which stood about 15 feet tall and weighed 7 tons. Some of the tracks have also been attributed to the Sauroposeidon, which was a towering 60 feet tall and weighed close to 44 tons. The tracks are believed to belong to two types of dinos, including the Acrocanthosaurus. De Agostini via Getty Images “Being able to find these discoveries and experience new dinosaur tracks is always an exciting time at the park!” Garcia said. The new tracks are expected to be buried again soon by forecasted rain. But while they won’t be visible to park visitors in the near future, the sediment actually helps protect the tracks from weathering and erosion. “While they will soon be buried again by the rain and the river, Dinosaur Valley State Park will continue to protect these 113-million-year-old tracks not only for present, but future generations,” Garcia said. Dinosaur State Valley Park was one of the many areas impacted by a statewide drought last week. Dinosaur Valley Park / Paul Bake The new dinosaur tracks are merely the latest curiosities to emerge in the past few months, as hot temperatures and the climate crisis cause water levels to drop in the US and abroad. Earlier this month, the fourth set of human remains was found at Lake Mead in Utah. https://nypost.com/2022/08/23/dinosaur-tracks-discovered-in-texas-after-drought-dries-up-river/ They're so perfectly formed and preserved, they don't even look real. They look like plaster molds in a Dino Flintsone exhibit. -

Jeez... I didn't think his cock was that big that it needed a bigger theater. Then again, I'm not a theater buff (though I AM a fan of theater-in-the-buff).

I'm surprised nobody's posted about the only network show to get emmy nomination love this year. I didn't watch it until binging it last week. I enjoyed it, but found the character Ava (the principal) to be too over the top ridiculous and obnoxious to be funny. I found most of her scenes annoying, especially on a show that had all the other adult characters be fairly grounded and realistic.

Not that I want to rain on anyone's parade, but at 2.50 %, it would take you roughly 29 years to double your money. At 1.50%, it would take roughly 48. I always laugh when banks trumpet their interest rates. They've been so low for years that any little raise still results in bupkis. What Is the Rule of 72? The Rule of 72 is a quick, useful formula that is popularly used to estimate the number of years required to double the invested money at a given annual rate of return. The Rule of 72 comes in handy for mental calculations to quickly gauge an approximate value. For this reason, the Rule of 72 is often taught to beginning investors as it is easy to comprehend and calculate. The Security and Exchange Commission also cites the Rule of 72 in grade-level financial literacy resources. Years To Double: 72 / Expected Rate of Return To calculate the time period an investment will double, divide the integer 72 by the expected rate of return. The formula relies on a single average rate over the life of the investment. The findings hold true for fractional results, as all decimals represent an additional portion of a year.

Is it? Who knows what voodoo you do. Or did you mean that a foul ball fracturing a foot is sort of ridiculous? Because I agree about that.

Chris Sale is becoming the Kevin Kiermaier of pitchers. Already out with a fractured left pinky, he had a bike accident Saturday & fractured his right wrist.
