It’s my understanding that most states do have a definition of “violent” or “dangerous” offenses socked away in the criminal code somewhere. I would hope (but I’ll believe it when I see it) that if you’re not charged with one of those, you wouldn’t be considered “a danger to the community”

In Missouri, if you’re driving a tow truck and you come to a wreck, you’re not allowed to stop unless you’ve been called. Class D Misdemeanor and they’ll impound your tow truck if you do. Goes up to a felony for a third offense.

People talk about that ‘06 Cards team that had only 83 wins, but just two years previously, the 105 win ‘04 team got swept by the Red Sox in 4 games.

That’d be Larry Wayne, probably. So, five or six years? His time was kinda limited towards the end there, but he was still OPSing around .800 or so. That counts as competent.

Jesus H. Christ. Beautiful.

How tall was the Crime Dog? I always have a mental picture of McGriff being like 6'8". That might’ve been because he was rail-thin, though.

Pittsburgh’s played more games and Johansen was knocked out in the third round. Comparing top four scorers is irrelevant given those facts.

He hit three home runs in Game Three of the 2011 World Series. The only reason nobody remembers that is because of the ridiculous endings to Games 6 & 7 that year.

Now playing

I gotta say, I prefer the Robson & Jerome version, myself:

The Prestige is criminally overlooked in this thread. Hugh Jackman, Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Scarlett Johansson and David frickin’ Bowie. That one was a masterpiece. Plus, he out-twisted Shymalan with that ending. Just brutal.

No mention of Trevor Bauer in last year’s playoffs? What was it again, “drone-related injury”? Mike Matheny cut his hand playing with a knife in the playoffs one year, and Chris Duncan split his head open jumping down stairs one time.

He won the Bendix in a Laird Super-solution biplane. He flew the GeeBee when he won the Thompson Trophy. He also won a Schneider Cup somewhere in there - the Triple Crown of air racing.

Take a look at what’s going on in the Central right now. Pekka Rinne has stopped 93 of 95 against Chicago and Jake Allen has stopped 114 of 117 (!) against Minnesota. That would be .979 and .974, respectively.

“I don’t know any business that would get away with something like this.”

Ah yes, the Tour de Franzia.

It’s worth pointing out that there are several different “Benton” placenames in Missouri. This document appears to refer to one located Atchison County, which is in the far northwest corner of the state, rather than Benton, Missouri, which is located in the southeast part of the state. Records for Atchison County will

I didn’t believe it, but the only long-term contract on the entire roster is the deal Wil Meyers signed at 6yrs/83M starting this year. The only other multi-year deal on the club is Yangervis Solarte at 2yrs/7.5M. Everybody else on the roster so far is either under club control or on a 1 year deal.

Too bad about the treason and desertion from the military as John Travolta’s sidekick, though.
