  1. So stoked. All positions covered with quality players (although I'm still not a fan of Mookie at SS). Teo is a great clubhouse guy on top of being a great player
  2. Update, but sorry without pics. Headed up to Mammoth on Monday. Clear skies, easy drive. Wake up Tuesday to light falling snow. That built. And built. Pretty much dumped the whole time on the hill Tuesday, and then eased off literally as we got off the mountain. But dropped 9”-12” during the day. Fun softies around, but the surface of the snow was so hard to see you couldn’t really let ‘er rip without eating shit. My stamina was shit in the soft stuff. I knew it would be. But fun day. Christmas Day we did presents and breakfast in the morning, and I asked the fam who’d be up for an afternoon half day? Only the boy was up for it, so we hit the hill at the stroke of 12:30, and it was sunny and all that dump age from the day before was nicely groomed. We charged it until 4. Epic day. I know I’m biased, but I’ve boarded a number of places from many Park City trips, Whistler, Mt Hood, Bachelor, Sun Valley, all over Tahoe, and Mammoth stacks up very well with all of them.
  3. I’m half Swedish. Fuck him.
  4. Looks like we may have
  5. Up 8 at the break on the Heels.
  6. No shit. I rarely ever have less than $100 cash on me.
  7. $3.50. Obviously.
  8. Headed to Mammoth on Monday with the fam. Doing Christmas up there. They've had decent snow, with a bit more on the way. Health reasons have kept me off any mountain since Park City in Feb '22. My stamina is still shit, but I'll just cruise groomers with my kids and be happy.
  9. I came to grips with that some time ago. But I continue to delude myself just because I’ve always felt ucla can be great. But really not in this era of NIL. We get millions, almost billions, in donations. But it goes to infrastructure and medical. Which really are more important. But not to me.
  10. Damn he and Mendoza were our 2 top targets.
  11. Word is he's getting $3 mil
  12. This can't possibly be true, can it?
  13. Not sure who the big money guys are behind it, but while not what we really need to compete with other teams in the B1G, word is it's like $7 mil or so.
  14. I know we're pitching revenue sharing as part of the deal. To the tune of like $150K per player. Now I don't know if that means all players on schollie, or what.
  15. We've earmarked a pretty big portion of NIL for QB, as I understand it (multi 7 figures).
  16. Sounds like we're going all in on Mendoza from Cal now.
  17. Bummer, he was a big target for us.
  18. I think most flat earthers are just contrarians for contrary's sake. Like so many fringe weirdos.
  19. We have the heels on Saturday
  20. I trip out on this kind of thing. When you think about the exponential speed at which technology is developing, assuming that the arc continues, where will humanity go? Will it exist? Will we blend our thoughts with AI? And what about 1,000 years? 100,000 years? These are still miniscule amounts of time in evolutionary history. This site has some cool predictions. https://www.futuretimeline.net/timeline.htm
