Here's a text I got from my son-in-law (a decades-long baseball fan who bleeds Dodger blue).

From the USA Today farm system rankings:

2) Houston Astros.... have not had a great farm system for quite some time now and perhaps that lack of attention to their lower levels is finally starting to take its toll... this team doesn't seem to have much going for it on the pitching side...

That "2" ranking is second-worst btw  😞


Isn't that what Jeff Luhnow was so good at? Was Dana Brown supposed to fill those shoes? What's Jim Crane's roll? Help me out, Astros fans. Who has let us down?
I have written 1000 word posts at baseball forums of how unfairly Luhnow was blamed for the cheating scandal.  I still stand by that 100%.

What you are witnessing is the dynasty that he built has been torn down systeatically by the likes of Crane, Bagwell, and Dusty Baker.

Oh it's late. They are getting 100% of their power needs from their solar farm. You are nitpicking. You knew exactly what I meant

"Off grid" has a meaning...

It is also highly likely they get power off the grid when the sun isn't shining. Kind of dumb to build an expensive battery farm while connected to the grid unless you expect the grid to go down.

“We must create an environment where all voices are heard, respected and valued regardless of their viewpoint or backgrounds,” Alimam said, who was at Friday’s protest and witnessed the arrests.

Hysterical.  These are the same kids that drive off conservative speakers in the name of wokeness.

Go ASU.  Arest all of their sorry asses.

And "B&D said they are 100% off the grid and actually sell excess energy back".

Well, you can't be off grid while at the same time connected to the grid to sell it back.

Just damn...

B&D said the solar project was privately funded.

Ok I screwed up on Dell and Amazon. The fact is nearly every US the industry is getting subsidies from the US govt but you pick on ev's

I am getting attacked at all sides here so sometimes I make mistakes.
I will not make that mistake again and will slow down

So now its "nearly all" you say...

You said Home Depot in the post I was responding too. And it is highly likely that B&D got subsidies too even if they used private funding for part of their project.

You have no idea what you're talking about.

Oh, I will give you some credit for owning up to your misinformation.

Oh, damn.  My bad.  I thought that was posted by our in house DU member.  My mistake.  I grievously and profusely apologize, my brother @DB

We're good. It was obvious it wasn't intended for me. Let's just delete them.
