    Any chance of the Yanks/Nats resuming tonight?

    I love the cardboard cutouts right behind home plate at Dodgers Stadium, but they don't extend to the rest of the stadium. It makes it feel so real: No one shows up in the first inning.

    I don't remember if it was here or elsewhere, but someone wrote that they should put the cutouts up in the second inning and take them down in the seventh so it feels like a real Dodgers game.

    I feel like there's a story about those cutouts. Are those images of living people? Because I half-wonder if they are not.

    I heard he also called Fauci's first pitch a strike.

    A friend of mine posted something on FB today. The Phillies are using it to raise money for a charity. You send in a picture and your money and they make it into a cutout. Her parents died of COVID so she sent their pictures. Her folks were huge Phillies fans.

    Thank you for that. Good on the Phillies. I would love to send my grandma's photo.

    Let me try to get the info. Yeah, I think it is really cool. I'd send my dad but he hated the Phillies.

    I believe most if not all the teams have the money for cutouts going to their foundation or other charity.

    The Rangers charge $50, the Dodgers $150-$250. LA is even selling cutouts of dogs.

    Could I get a cut out of a beach ball?

    And damn my awkward phone for the premature postulation.

    One game doesn't men much, but good Tebow, the Giants could be worse than I thought.
