Are you from Memphis? I played a few games in the old Tim McCarver stadium as a Braves farmhand.

I am... Was born and raised there.. left for a while.. came back.. was a cop in the area for about 10 years.. left again.. that was amost 25 years ago.. but still make it back there several times a year.. both I and my wife still have family there..

I have a lot of fond memories of Tim McCarver stadium.. watched a lot of games there over the years, and attended countless events there at the fairgrounds area.. Im not sure if its even standing anymore though.. I havent been through that part of town in at least 20 years (family lives on the far east part of town, nowhere near the stadium).. and it was looking pretty run down the last time I saw it..

Imagine if we just never let these monsters into our country in the first place!

DHS identifies over 400 migrants brought to the U.S. by an ISIS-affiliated smuggling network

Over 150 have been arrested, but the whereabouts of over 50 remain unknown, officials said. ICE is looking to arrest them on immigration charges when they are found.

It makes you wonder how many DHS has failed to identify.

I remember they had a small placard behind the left field wall where my old college teammate Bo Jackson hit his first professional home run, about a week later I hit that sign with a home run. What are the odds 2 players from the same university hit a home run in the exact spot a week apart. Those were some fun times!

Dirtdart, Alejandro Mayorkas says that’s actually a pretty good percentage. Only 400 got in out of 7 million he has allowed.

He’s right that is a tiny percentage .00571428571429% of the total they have let in.

Bo Jackson, Charles Barkley and Franklin Thomas were all at that same university, Auburn, at the same time. @Hunt anything you had a front row seat to history.

Frank started out as a tight end but Coach Dye saw his talent in baseball and steered him to baseball and after a Hall of Fame career the rest is history for sure. Bo and I actually did a little hunting and fishing together, we still catch up every couple of years at some baseball reunions.

Who's the geezer in the Royals shirt?

It makes you wonder how many DHS has failed to identify.

They haven’t got a clue because no such comprehensive list exists in the first place… how could it?. And exactly which illegals are carrying valid IDs? I have a feeling all the numbers quoted by FBI, DHS, etc. are estimates, which are likely based on whatever the desired political image is desired at the time. Quite the political tightrope to walk don’t you think …. FBI or DHS says, “it’s a big number so give us more money/people/power”. While the Admin says it’s a small number because it sounds better politically… ohhh the inconvenient conundrum for an election year

He must be famous…. ZZ Top?

A debate hosted by a media outlet that I despise, and a president that I absolutely loathe.
Yeah...... I'll probably throw my T.V thru the window after watching that snake eyed grifter P.O.S.

Don't shake Bidens hand at the debate Mr. Trump. Never shake the hand of evil.

 

[CoElkHunter]

I may watch some, at least until the BS gets so deep I need a snorkel. Then I’ll find a re-run of a silent movie or something more riveting to watch.

“or something”? Three Stooges marathon on Nickelodeon. LOL

What’s the deal with a 2 minute delay for “live” tv, no audience, and moderators getting to silence microphones during the debate?

 

[Brent in Az]

Gives CNN the opportunity to filter the feed to viewer's.
This debate is a trap, and a big mistake by Trump.

 

[DillonG]

Problem is that so many citizens don’t have the intelligence to realize what is happening. Our political system seemed more reasonable 30-40 years ago.

Live television always has a delay. If I remember correctly, it is because of Budd Dwyer.

Funny that Rumble, a streaming platform a lot of younger conservatives use is conveniently down now.

 

[John Wasmuth]

According to Fox cnn nixed the 2 minute thing.

Biden is such a lying dung heap
