Completely off topic, but Dale Murphy is my all-time favorite Braves player. That said, he should have hung around in Colorado long enough to crack 2 more HR...398 career HR is what has kept him out of the Hall. (Mostly) dead-ball era power hitters need 400 to get in the HoF. It’s stupid, but it is what it is.
Dude put his family first when he hung it up. At this point in my life I respect that more than some accolade that doesn't really matter if you aren't around to be a father to your kids.

But you're right. 400 HRs probably would have resulted him being elected to the hall. Him, Marris, and Bonds are the only multiple MVP winners not in Cooperstown. Bonds will get in eventually tho.

And i am willing to bet that of that group...1 person knows 1 person that died. And 5 know someone that knows someone that died ( and very likely ...the same person)

I mean...i have a friend whose father passed away technically from covid but he had many health issues and was 83.

Meanwhile, after they left they probably went down to McDonalds to get a bite to eat, then stopped at Wal-Mart to get some other items for the evening, after getting a snack at the local 7-11.

frick them.

I must have missed something, I didn't think anyone was being forced to go to the school. If you're a student and don't want to, drop out. If you're a professor or part of the staff and don't want to, quit. That's one of the cool things about being in America, you can make a choice.

Of course this is UGA, so you can't expect to much from the poor saps.


Would have been a good post, except you forgot to take into account that in 2020, the negative consequences of your choices aren't your fault, it's everyone else's fault and problem.
