Wednesday Night Open Thread

One of the Baby Bombers is officially another year older today. Happy 24th birthday to Greg Bird, who unfortunately missed the entire 2016 following shoulder surgery, but still figures prominently into the Yankees’ long-term plans. With all due respect to Tyler Austin, I think everyone is pulling for Bird to take the first base job and run with it in Spring Training, including the team itself. That would be cool.

Here is tonight’s open thread. The Knicks and Nets are playing each other tonight, and that’s pretty much it for local sports. Talk about that game, Bird’s birthday, or any other non-politics stuff right here.
