assassinated military leaders before with diplomats from other countries in Moscow. They just did it 3 days ago when Witkoff was in Moscow on Friday to meet with Putin

Except the town where the Russian general assumed room temperature is almost 25 miles beyond the outer ring road in Moscow. Which means it was between 30 and 35 miles away from the Kremlin.

I seriously doubt Witkoff was taking a tour of the Moscow countryside.

What a liar you and that Twitter clown are. He said nothing, nothing of the sort. He was talking about sanctions, clearly. This thread should be shameful to you, but you probably haven't the character to care.

Don't be too hard on the OP.

You have to remember he's the guy who claimed he takes part time jobs as a bartender just so he can meet women. :casty:

And as of this moment AMZN is only down -.3% or -$.49/share.

Charging to watch BP? wtf?

It's a little more than just watching BP.

Fans who buy the early access BP pass get to go onto the field behind the batting cage during BP while the players and coaches walk around near you.

Total match on your 6% = 7%.

Total added to your account that period = 6% + 7% = 13%.

"Knew what pitch was coming"

Remember the super-regional game when Skenes had two strikes on the Kentucky batter and he took the baseball out of his glove and motioned to the batter that he was going to throw a curve by holding the baseball towards the batter twisting it in a circular motion?

And the batter struck out swinging on a curve ball.

Ah, good times...
