Black Belt (10/10)

  1. Great idea, Patrick. There’s nothing better than providing respect to each other. It’s not the worse idea, that’s for sure!!
  2. Because of my Afib caffeine is a big no-no which is a let down because I love several cups of coffee in the morning or whenever the weathers cold.
  3. According to MLB Rule 3.02… “The bat shall be a smooth, round stick not more than 2.61 inches in diameter at the thickest part and not more than 42 inches in length. The bat shall be one piece of solid wood.” Hence, the torpedo bat is perfectly legal. Yankee Aaron Judge does NOT use a torpedo bat because he favors a traditional bat. Even with a traditional bat he launched 5 HR’s over the weekend. Twins, Devil Rays, and Orioles have experimented with the torpedo bat over spring training.
  4. Torpedoes, Away!! MLB has a new bat. Well, the Yankees seem to have a new bat. Name of the bat?? TORPEDO This new bat looks like…well…to a Torpedo, in a sense!! According to reports, this new torpedo bat will increase the frequency of home runs. My Yankees had a 13 HR weekend; 9 HR’s in one game alone. Guess what?? The Torpedo bat is completely LEGAL says MLB which means that this torpedo bat can be used in any MLB game. Batter Up!!
  5. Congrats @crash; well deserved!!
  6. My wife’s has said to me that the owner of where she works is now asking the teachers to make only positive comments about the center on the 3 different network, like Facebook. My wife refuses to do that. Not a good idea for the owner of the center!!
  7. Crackers seem to do the trick for me whenever I’m feeling nauseous. Sometimes throwing up works too for me. Both worked whenever I was doing my cancer treatments. I love eating lemons a lot however they sometimes induced me to throw up….then I’d fell ALL SNAPPY and good to go.
  8. NBC aired a very moving Legacy on Ice held a memorial ceremony this morning. Current and retired skaters performed routines to support loved ones and honor the lives affected by the American Airlines Flight 5342 crash where 67 perished; 64 passengers and crew on the airliner and the 3 crew of the Black Hawk helicopter.
  9. My Knights seem to be doing well this season. Maybe they can return to the Stanley Cup. Knights find themselves in 1st place in the Pacific Division. They’re 3 games ahead the Kings. Knights have amassed 42 wins and 20 losses with only 20 games remaining in the season. Knights are on a 3 win streak at home: Bruins 0…Knights 5 Red Wings 3…Knights 6 Lightning 2…Knights 4 Knights face Wild on their ice today. GO KNIGHTS!!
  10. Sub-Zero is my all time favorite!! Those were the days. I use to spend a lot of time playing Mortal Kombat but then lost interest for some reason. Oh well, I still have fond memories.
  11. I was a long time subscriber of BBM but I have stopped reading it because there seemed to be much more ads than before and not as many articles. BBM returned to print back in October 2024.
  12. “Sports writers play a significant role in determining who gets inducted into the Major League Baseball (MLB) Hall of Fame because they are part of the voting body for the Hall of Fame’s election process.” WHY?? Seems that the MLB and NBA gave a power to their respective sports writers but the NFL and the NHL didn’t. I understand that sports writers play a significant role in any sport, both amateur and professional, but they’ve not ever played professionally and have no idea what it takes to be in thick of the game as armchair players who’ve not shed their blood, sweat, and tears on the gridiron, diamond, court, or ice but behind a typewriter. Does Rose deserve to be in the MLB HOF?? I don’t know!! Seems to me that that decision needs to be rightfully up to those who’ve played the respective sport as well as those who’ve earned their places in their respective HOF, and not to the sports writers. Imho!!
  13. Sorry they cut the scene, Patrick; editing can be the bane on making a movie.
  14. Happy 85th Birthday, Mr. Norris!! Have a safe and fun birthday!! Nah, I don’t plan on watching any Chuck Norris movies today, or soon.
