  1. The Hope Memorial Bridge terminates short of the field: From Wiki: "...The bridge connects Lorain Avenue on Cleveland's west side and Carnegie Avenue on the east side, terminating just short of Progressive Field. Pairs of statues designed by sculptor Henry Hering and architect Frank Walker – officially named the Guardians of Traffic[3] – stand on pylons at each end of the viaduct, symbolizing progress in transportation.[4] On July 23, 2021, the professional baseball team in Cleveland announced that they will change their name to the Cleveland Guardians, at the end of the 2021 season, in honor of the Guardians of Traffic."
  2. Read above^^^ Defense is played in Baseball. Can't win if you aren't able to score. The pitcher is the ultimate guardian of the mound, with catcher, guard home plate!
  3. Shhhhh... Hush child! Please be quiet, before @Gugnyreads this and you give him more crazy ideas! 😏 But... I really love some of those crazy ideas! 😊... "Guardians of Traffic" ... The Hope Memorial Bridge over the Cuyahoga River that terminates at Progressive Field. The Art Deco sculptures that are the guardians of traffic. Transit through that: @BringBackFergy πŸ˜† I like the name! πŸ˜†πŸ€£
  4. I just ate a chocolate Dilly Bar. I can't really work in the heat like I used to. I think I am getting old.
  5. Everyone eventually sells out... 😏
  6. How about the Public Library... But they probably shut that down in town πŸ™„πŸ˜’ to get people to spend at a local business. Unfortunately, guys like @BringBackFergy are the Village Commons now. Sad, but doable... Such a small town, I am sure they can accommodate her and still be productive, viable. That's my take...
  7. They will just drive anyway. Gotta get to work. Then lock them up. Jails will be jammed.
  8. "There was some alcohol involved..." NO! You think?
  9. TiL: Don't use DarkMode when reading this thread. πŸ™„πŸ™„
  10. I should have said: "Still in training." 😏
  11. White Sox: 2005. First time in many decades... Maybe they should have phrased it: "Another in many decades..."
  12. Yeah... They are road hogs... While the fuel you're burning is taxed to build the roads. Automobiles should have priority. I feel sorry for the guy too. Most of the time can't see them. Like that stupid motorcycle campaign of "looking twice"... WTF... I am supposed to look twice for something I can't see. You gotta be kidding. How about they look three times for me, let me look once.
  13. That gator will have to go Jenny Craig after a meal like that!
  14. Gone to the finest school and didn't just get juiced in it... It actually learned something! https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1274448 😏
  15. Yeah... I can totally let God decide if bikes need to be run over. It's in his hands.
  16. Yes Dave, you are correct! 😊
  17. Who's this:
  18. No. I think he's saying the opposite. Probably one of the harder scores in sports.
  19. Slightly different than @Jauronimo's post.. But close...
  20. They're sitting all pretty close. Hope they're vaxxed. Especially the guy with hat turned backwards. πŸ˜‰πŸ˜œ
  21. They don't play in the left driving part of the world! Too sunny to be England, πŸ˜†. Is that in Australia πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί?
  22. Yes. The miter gate variety is like a pressurized airplane door. When there's difference of water (head) on either side of them, it would take a strongman to open them. BUT equalize the pressure and a lady in high heels can swing them... NOW sector gates, they can be open against the pressure of the head, because one side is angled or curved, equally displacing the amount of pressure being applied the gate holding it shut (ie: acts like a cam). πŸ˜†πŸ€£πŸ˜‚You CAN open the gates if you equalize the pressure, but you may NOT open the gates! 😏
