I'm not a nut expert, but I suspect maybe almonds. They do grow in CA and take a LOT of water. I read an article once about almonds

While this community is pretty savvy, I wonder how many of us would actually do better than professional players on such a test

Pollyanna ... yeah, I don't think you're her ... I've met you

Me, too ...

Well, I tried to feature the day 1 thread, which would put a link to it at the top of the forums page and on the front page, however, the site is set up in such a way, that only threads in the baseball forums can be featured. I think these vignettes are good, entertaining reading, especially now, so the most I can do is comment on it in my status line (and so should everyone, ahem), or for me or you to encourage Brian to create blogs out of them, but it would require posting a photo, one photo, with each blog post.

I pretty much agree with all of this. And, at both the beginning and mid-season I said I thought they were a .500 team. Surprised the offense isn’t performing better, but not surprised with the pitching, especially the BP. But the OP has said the players don’t like Rocco and I really want the OP to let us in on what he’s read. Other than the Gray snippet, which is very debatable attributing that as a dislike of Rocco, I’ve only heard assumptions based on personal opinion of posters

I don’t think he went to Roswell, NM

See, now, you really should have visited the Chiricahua National Monument instead of The Thing. A national monument! It has a national designation like a national park. But maybe visit there in March or October instead of the dead of summer ? Oh, and you really need to insert some photos. Seeing is believing.

I put a notice in my status to come read about your journey. Everyone should. If you had done them as blogs (and you still could by simply cutting and pasting them to your blog, adding a photo to each one) they could get featured.

This made me laugh. When I read you reached Las Cruces and was thinking ... 'Wonder if he'll head up to White Sands?' Kept reading, yep. Then I thought, 'Hope he makes a sand angel.' yep. Well done, Brian! Are you heading to Chiricahua National Monument tomorrow? Skip Tombstone if that's on your list. But, you've already done, so, guess this advice is late.

Players don't like him as a manager? Is that what you are saying? Do you have links to articles and comments confirming this? While you are entitled to your opinion and to express them, it seems like you have wrapped up a bunch of your opinions, which are shared by many here, and have claimed the players don't like these things, too. I just haven't seen that out there, but then, I'm not local so don't read/hear any local reporting, nor do I subscribe to The Athletic. So, please share your sources to illuminate us all.

they probably won't let you bring that in, either ... but test it out sometime

Just an fyi for future excursions and preparedness, plastic kids scissors get through detectors and work fine. I use them on airplanes when I take needlework projects to do

What are you talking about?

When I heard 'And they're sending him home ... ' I was sure he was going to be out ... glad the ball was bobbled out there

I wish they'd offer Rowson double the money he's making now to come back

Good. I hope so.

I'm in 'hearing distance' of the venue, so all I hear is the bass rumble, sometimes feel it, too

Okay ... Bad Bunny must be a rock or rap group ... is loud

dang

?‍♀️

Hard to tell ...

Wow ... nice catch there ... hate to see that from the other team, but props to him

Come on ... let's not go there comparing players to dog poo
