Wxtrix Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 well we drove I-95. through Ophelia. worst bucket list item ever. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
09-10 analogy Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Yeah, Ophelia definitely has more of a fall nor'easter feel than tropical, as noted in the other thread. Ophelia took a pass on the trip to the nunnery, I guess. (I know, stop with the bad Hamlet jokes.) But I love the name. NHC should just put it in permanent rotation as the "O" name until they have to retire it. Only 2 "O" names have been retired and, offhand, it doesn't seem like there are that many English- or Spanish-language names that begin with "O". So that got me going. 14 "I" names (no surprise) heads this list of retired names alphabetically. (All the more reason, if we're going to go all Shakespeare, to put "Iago" in the rotation; for that matter, "Othello" as well.) 10 "F"s. 9 "C"s. Somewhat surprising that only 3 "B"s have been retired. Early in the season so prolly less likely to be memorable storms (i.e., "strong") but 7 "A"s and 8 "D"s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris78 Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Really needed that from Means to help the Bullpen. Hopefully Gibson can go 7 strong tomorrow. Off day on Monday. Need to reset and give the Bullpen a rest for the final 6 game stretch. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 3 minutes ago, nw baltimore wx said: That non-call was pretty bad. It was, plus the missed face mask. They deserved the loss despite a couple of non-calls though. No excuse to not be able to just run the clock out after the safety and free kick. They really do need to get some players healthy and back in there too- Gus going out left them with 2 backs that were on the practice squad, and both have fumble problems. The OL was not good in pass protection, and Lamar needs to learn to just throw it away. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a Breeze Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 In the Commander's loss, I'm comforted (not really) in the fact that, it was just about the only normal thing to happen this NFL week. Wow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickinBaltimore Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 The Orioles could clinch their first AL East crown in 3,299 days as soon as Wednesday.

It's warmer here than at home Minnesota sports are a special breed of mediocrity. The Vikings, Wolves, Wild, and Lynx (WNBA) all made the playoffs and had a first round exit in the past year. Hard to imagine the Twins don’t pull the same feat. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a kind, compassionate man who was very successful at something he loved to do, and brought a lot of people a lot of joy. And there was no obvious downside to him (although we all have our foibles) since not only have I never read anything bad about him, I've heard numerous people say that they'd never heard anything bad about him. I'd say that's the definition of a successful life worthy of celebration. And I'm a cynic who usually doesn't go in for saying this kind of thing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
09-10 analogy Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Listening to Palmer and McDonald together is like getting a graduate-level course in the nuances of baseball. They are both so knowledgeable and articulate, but each has their own style. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
