How many more starts will he get?
How many more starts will he get?: To use a baseball example, Joe Biden got to the 5th inning, gave up a few runs and walked away without a decision. After the game, the press asked the manager about his pitcher. Will he get another start? The manager would not commit.
That's w…
We remember Jack Kemp (1935-2009)
We remember Jack Kemp who was born in Los Angeles on this day in 1935. We got the news of his death in May 2009: Jack Kemp is dead of cancer.
From the 1970's until his untimely death, Jack Kemp was one of my favorite politicians. He was also a pretty AFL-NFL quarterback: 21,218 passing yards & 114 TD's.

July 13, 1994: The day that the Castro government murdered 37 Cubans
Another year and another anniversary. We can add this one to the shooting of 1996 when a civilian plane was shot down by the regime. As people march in Cuba, we remember the ones who were killed this week in 1994. This is one of the most outrageous crimes of this inhumane regime.
My friend Alberto de la Cruz, Managing Director of Babalu, reminded us of this massacre by posting the photos of the victims.
Over at PanAm Post, John Suarez related the events of that terrible day:
In the early morning hours of July 13, 1994, 37 men, women, and children were killed by government agents seven miles off the Cuban coast, as they sought to travel to freedom on board the “13 de Marzo” tugboat. Eleven of these Cubans were children, ranging in age from Helen Martínez Enríquez -- just five months old -- to Mayulis Méndez Tacaronte, aged 17.
It was not an accident, as Cuban official media said. It was a premeditated attack on Cubans trying to leave the island.
We remind you that the late Fidel, and not seen in public lately Raul Castro, are responsible for this massacre. In fact, the same Raul who sat down and watched a baseball game with President Obama in 2016. Yes, that one!
The museum for the victims of communism has a big Cuban wing, or the section with the names of these innocent people and the thousands of others. As my late parents used to say, there is no punishment harsh enough for these murderers and "comunistas" who destroyed Cuba.
"Against all hope" is available in Spanish and English. The author, Armando Valladares, spent years in a Cuban political prison.P.S. You can listen to my show. If you like our posts, please look for ”Donate” on the right column of the blog page.
1971 All Star Game: Reggie Jackson hit a mammoth shot at Tiger Stadium
By the way, the 1971 game was an amazing collection of future Hall of Famers: Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Willie Stargell, Willie McCovey, Johnny Bench, Ron Santo, Lou Brock, Roberto Clemente, Steve Carlton, Ferguson Jenkins, Juan Marichal, Tony Oliva and Tom Seaver.
Jackson's shot stole the headlines to say the least.
