    No. I think this guy needs counseling. I think he is mixed race and having some kind of identity crisis because of it. He obviously aligned himself with a white supremacy group because he feels the need to label himself as white to everyone around him. He should take a 23 and Me, or ancestry dna test. Maybe it will help him discover the rest of his family tree and help him find a healthy social environment that is supportive of his entire racial background.

    I’m not related to any Nazis. I’m mostly Scottish, British, and Irish by blood. The last bit of my dna is a mix of Norwegian and Icelandic, or so ancestry.com. Sorry to derail your hate train there.

    I’m not. I’m just saying that it hurts my feelings to have this guy be called white. There are so many mixed race white supremacists out there, and they make white people look bad. Why are we calling this guy white?

    I’ve had so much hate directed towards me with regard to Nazis. I’m not even German. Both sides of my family fought in WW2 against the Germans, and I applied for the army in 2020. Please stop trying to associate me to Nazis.

    Yeah, I followed advice that was on a sports website, as well as stated in an ESPN interview. I guess you think you’re above everyone else to the point where you can judge someone’s actions as stupid. If you had pretty good stats in school, that most likely would include your SAT, ACT, and maybe an ASVAB. If you scored well on those tests, you aren’t of average intelligence. It’s the “cool” trend to snub academia, and it’s getting on my nerves. When adults shrug off academic success and even snub it, the next generation views it as unimportant. They even see it as “uncool” to be academically successful. All of those posts containing store front signs that say, “closed because we can’t take cards and our employees don’t know enough math to make change”, aren’t really a joke. It’s sad. Yeah, go ahead and put me down. I hear degrading comments every day. If stating my achievements bothers you, then it says more about you than it does about me.

    Here is one of many websites that promoted the process I used. https://ecosports.com/blogs/vegan-athletes/how-to-break-in-a-baseball-glove

    $1.50/loaf is pretty cheap. You can find $1.00/loaf at Dollar Tree stores. The cheapest alternative would be to make your own loaf of bread. If you buy an expensive, organic loaf of bread, it can be over $5.00/loaf.

    I used to have a Toyota. I understand what you’re saying. The quality of the used Ford I just bought is so much better than that Toyota, though. My particular Ford was actually made in America. I checked. I had a Honda motorcycle for a while, too. It wasn’t bad, either, but it would shut itself off when idling, and it wasn’t a problem with the idle screw.

    I know, a whole $2.00 based on chance. I could have bought a loaf of bread and a small rod peanut butter to last me a week if I shopped at Dollar Tree for groceries like I have in the past. Now, spend years creating for plots to analyze the frequency of the possible outcomes, and you might not think it’s so crazy.

    American made products are better. They just are. I’m sorry if people disagree with me, but I have bought items that were foreign made because I wanted to save money in the past. There’s a noticeable difference with a lot of items.

    I had a Toyota for years, and I thought it was great. It really wasn’t a bad car. It was the cheapest car on the market in 2008. I just bought a Ford that is 19 years old (3 years older than the Toyota I previously had). The Ford is more high tech and impressive than that Toyota. Thats all I’m saying.

    Dying on a cross wouldn’t cause a person to bleed out. I thought Jesus supposedly died from being unable to breathe, due to the position of being placed on the cross. A body has to do more work to breathe when in that position. A person has to lift the torso to inhale, and upon exhaling they would slump back down to allow the nails in their palms to suspend their weight. I don’t know. That’s how my sixth grade teacher explained death by cross to our class.

    I wish he would spend more time focusing on policies that are good for Americans, and discussing his plans for addressing foreign conflicts. It just seems so immature that both candidates are wasting time and money by attacking one another. We have wars in foreign countries that are going to affect us. Carbon emissions are still too high from power plants and shipping companies in foreign countries. We have a homelessness problem while apartments and houses sit vacant. We could be discussing basic income to keep people housed and help them pay their bills, or other basic living expenses. Instead of doing his job, he’s picking school yard fights with someone who has the mentality of a school aged child.

    I have always broken in my gloves with oil and practice. I decided to hurry this one along by using the suggested oven tip I have heard about in the past. “Oh, just put your glove in the oven!” I never believed them, because I feared it would catch fire. I thought I was wrong. My Easter was ruined today. Edit: Here is the link that says 15 minutes at 350F: https://ecosports.com/blogs/vegan-athletes/how-to-break-in-a-baseball-glove
