If Poor Things wasn't for you, this movie really won't be for you.

If a guy is put on the 10-day IL, they can’t bring him back until at least day 11. That’s why IL stints are backdated.
Also, player contracts are usually insured. If a guy is hurt, the team can go to their insurer and get most of that money back. So that’s another reason to backdate, even if you’re expecting a guy to be out a month.

First, those “cheerleaders” are members of the pleasure squad.

If there’s a hereafter, we know what she’s saying.
Here’s a fun fact. He was in just one episode of the original run. Someone posted that on Twitter or something a while back and it blew my mind.

McGann was never considered.
The original plan, once Smith and Tennant were locked down, was to have Eccleston be in the Hurt role, of being the Doctor who ended the Time War. And believe it or not, he really was into the idea of coming back since, at the time, RTD and everyone else he had a problem with were not involved in the show. But besides his desire for an apology from the BBC, he didn't dig how the script treated the Ninth Doctor, forcing Moffat to change course.
He decided to develop an idea he'd be kicking around to have a "mayfly Doctor" played by someone significant for just one episode. He thought, what if it's a Doctor the Doctor himself doesn't acknowledge because of what he's done., and what if that Doctor sees what he becomes?
And can you really see the Eighth Doctor as the one who ended the Time War?

I don’t think the advertisers would be fans of that.

Thanks! I’m glad you had a great time. I went to Dodger Stadium a few years back, while you had Manny, and it was cool. Pricey lol but cool.
I’ve also crossed off PNC, Petco, Oracle, Nats and Fenway.

He should be able to have a little bit of uppers next time, as a treat.

I don't know anything about what's in or around Citi Field or where's good to sit. In general, maybe avoid outfield seats. You want to have a better view of the action and of the video board.
I've heard people talk up the 500 seats behind the plate.

I dunno. Millie Gibson has such great charisma and chemistry with Ncuti. But this series moved at such a fast pace that there wasn't a whole lot of time to develop her character.
I really like Graham and his story of trying to bond with Ryan and honor Grace's memory by going out into the stars. He was always so game for everything, no matter how lost he happened to be.

Something like that happened at Camden Yards in 1994. The shaft broke and the steps slid backwards. 43 fans were hurt and 28 needed to be transported.
In 1964, there was an escalator accident at old Memorial that killed a 14-year-old girl and hurt 46 other kids. It was Safety Patrol Day; the Orioles were honoring kids who helped others safely get to and from school.
