  1. Goode is really hitting well right now. Maybe she can turn a corner when the pitching improves.
  2. poor sophia. I feel bad for her. She's not gonna pitch much this year.
  3. Hitting will come around some, but losing Bella, Washington, and Vivi is huge. Those were big bats. None of the newcomers for the fall looked like they could hit, which I thought was odd for a Mike White team.
  4. She has a long swing with some bat drag, but gets away with it against pitchers that don't have the elite level velo/spin combo. Bat drag tends to make you late against good velo, so you have to subconsciously commit earlier, which then makes you susceptible to anything that's not a fastball. And it's not a matter of just learning to layoff or getting better vision. It's a mechanical issue. I'm a little surprised it hasn't been cleaned up in college, especially in today's world where there is so much emphasis on hitting mechanics. To illustrate, here's a swing from her last night. It's an outside pitch, where everyone tends to get a little draggy, but notice how her back elbow slides far forward of her back hip and comes almost completely under her top elbow, with the bat dragging behind. These are not great mechanics. Reese has much better mechanics. Great connection between elbow and back hip here.
  5. there is 0.0% chance that anything close to 75% of the federal workforce will be cut. I wonder how some of you have real life jobs.
  6. As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster.
  7. vivi gone for the year. boo.
  8. Repeatedly.
  9. I made it through 75 minutes, and it was a typical paint by numbers comedy, which is fine. But then it lost steam and I Iost interest, so I left the room and my wife finished it.
  10. Congress has effectively ceded that authority to the president for decades now. Not great, bob.
  11. Tech at 10 seems high, even with Canady. They were absolutely terrible last year. She can’t pitch every game.
  12. the new cast members are horribly meh.
  13. She's getting something like $5.2K per inning. Not bad for softball.
  14. Gonna really miss her hitting. Goode is a great fielder though and should do fine at SS.
  15. During season 1, my theory all along was that the cleaners were being gassed on the way out and that the outside world really was beautiful and not toxic. But when it turned out not to be beautiful, and there was so much emphasis on the tape seal, and the silo 17 folks all died just outside the silo, I abandoned this idea. But given what Solo said, now I am coming to the idea that maybe the outside is a wasteland, but not toxic, and the silo is designed to keep people in to maintain someone's idea of order, not for safety.
  16. Yeah looking like birds took out both engines, leading to total electrical failure etc.
  17. Mulholland Drive is a masterpiece.
  18. Mark tells his sister, and patricia arquette inadvertently. Irv, no.
  19. is this even controversial? Who doesn't love redheads?
  20. Not really, I think it gets even more boring after ep 1. Lol. Ep 9 was quite good. 2-8 kinda dogshit IMO.
  21. Great episode. This season feels like it should have been about 4 episodes long.
  22. Perfecting his combover?
  23. Wait, we can bag on the kicker but not the qb?
  24. He’s a much better coach than I gave him credit for in 2021 and 2022. I don’t really like his style of defense, but it works. He still makes some boneheaded calls at times. Such is life. The defense easily played well enough this year to win a national title. Sark and the offense fucked us.
  25. He has not proven himself to be a money play caller when it really counts at Texas. He can whiteboard the fuck out of anyone and depants the Floridas of the world with razzle dazzle shit. But two years in a row we’ve had 4 shots in the redzone to play for a natty and he has shit himself both times. He’s our coach, ride or die, but you’d be forgiven for having a little doubt about his ability to win the big one as HC.
