  1. when they first started play-in games, that is how it was. maybe only lasted for a year or two. they didn't like how winning a game gave you a reward of immediately getting slaughtered by north carolina or something, so they changed it. mathematically, it makes sense for it to be 16, but the practical application left a bad taste in everyone's mouth.
  2. I remember Teagarden being a total spare for us with the bat. Didn't remember his blistering start. Evidently hit 6 bombs in 47 ABs his first year. OPS'd 1.205.
  3. lol at “The Athletics” DBacks under, Brewers over SEA under, KCR over.
  4. yeah, the graphics have to be updated this year.
  5. it would require some combos
  6. What did the manager get tossed for? What was he arguing about? I couldn’t tell.
  7. Watching highlights of George Foreman is one of my longtime favorite activities. I’ve posted his gold medal round against some dirty commie before, which is awesome. But big bald later career Foreman is awesome in a different way. His whole attitude every fight is “like I give a single fuck about any of the punches you’re throwing.” Walks into them. Doesn’t feel them. And just delivers haymaker after haymaker. All entertaining. If you want one that is particularly amusing, the reset at the 6:00 mark here is great. Dude is out on his feet, George casually strolls up, delivers an uppercut that would kill every person in this board.
  8. Coco ruled. Very little hope for the sequel. The enshittification process has so thoroughly grabbed all versions of rehashing old IP. No one can turn down the finance bros’ money, which leads to the finance bros’ application of the soulless formula for remakes.
  9. that was the same article i started with. i was suspicious when they showed this image: that doesn't say anything about elon. why they chose that to prove elon did something, i don't know. so i went to elon's twitter itself to see. it is in fact true: i hovered over the elon thing at top and it is in fact to his account.
  10. I chased down that tweet Elon did running interference for Hitler, Mao and Stalin. It is in fact real.
  11. I was discussing this with my 7th grade son this morning. Told him that most products don't have a political nature to them: people buy Coke if you are black, white, Texan, California, Republican, Democrat, whatever. The boss is motivated to keep it that way. Broadens your customer base. Electric cars are one exception: a lot on the right think oil production is fundamental to America and don't want electric cars. So the buyers tend to be Democrat. But the boss here says the most fascist stuff possible, alienating his only base. It's wild.
  12. this seems all very well thought out
  13. Given the audience, surprised it didn't say established 1861.
  14. oh, i bet it would look exactly the same: standing outside doing nothing but looking cool with guns.
  15. Also, 64D chess: Trump is a great ally by giving a boost to Zelensky! From NYT Trump’s Attacks Give Zelensky a Bit of a Reprieve at Home The Ukrainian leader’s approval rating is rising, and critics have backed off after he was humiliated and criticized by President Trump, who has also demanded new elections in Ukraine.
  16. WaPo: Rubio saying there might be a restart of aid. Notable is this funny paragraph Really? Because the only thing your two bosses had to say was that Zelensky wasn't thankful enough, and we make foreign policy decisions based on the fee-fees of our leaders.
  17. The Kelly comment certainly seems to imply that Elon isn't getting any push back to try to moderate his image post-sieg heil.
  18. Any positives they have is because they are part of a command economy with a dictator in their pocket. They can have Trump mandate certain purchases; they can get value out of being a 'technology company' as Elon tries to say, through other means. They can't continue their inane valuation with consumer purchases of vehicles any more imo.
  19. Took four little kids to the Austin FC game in my Tesla tonight. Came out afterward to a slashed tire. Thanks a pant load Elon.
