It's probably Taylor then Beyonce. All of those are solid entries but fall down a bit save for Taylor and Adele. But Beyonce does have more Instagram followers, I'd say her music hits more age ranges and demographics, while Taylor's hits her demographic with a wrecking ball.

I've always believed you should get the 3-0 greenlight for a specific pitch. Lay off if it's not that exact one in that exact location. Blast it if it is

Yeah, full panel off works as well. Honestly didn't read the entire thread just skimmed. I can see it's paneling, but figured there was a reason you couldn't take it off, otherwise seems really simple to just pull them off and go. Still would cap it that way to make it work well

Cut the wall, install boards horizontally in btw the vertical studs, nail the side back over. A circular saw pull up with a shallow cut is probably the best option I wouldn't do any other way, but I would bitch about it the entire time I was doing it. It's just the best way and eliminates any issues. Personally I'd install a partial 2X4 vertically, then cap it with the horizontal so you have plenty of support. Costs 10 in wood to do it right.

My wife makes a shit load of money and likes expensive stuff. She also will trade stuff or buy used when she really wants something. I never worry about her when it comes to stuff like that because she's earned it, and she doesn't just spend to spend. She saves up money, will trade hair services (we own a salon), trade previous purchases or buy used.

All of this is true. I even said all fans groups suck really. I just liked thinking ours was above all of it, when I guess no one's fans are. The Oilers were so special to me and caused generational trauma for sure.

Correct. Some of y'all simply don't deserve this team. Every time I see Astros fans get dragged for being little bitches I get pissed, then read this thread and realize our fans fucking suck. Of course all fan groups suck when you get down to it. The Astros can go 0-162 and I'll be disappointed but wouldn't lose a single second of sleep. They have given me something I wanted my whole life and then got there 3 more times and did it again. The Rangers spent ungodly amounts of money as did the Dodgers to get where they are right now. No front office stays together more than a few years if they are successful. It could have been the greatest culture on earth and Sig and Stearns would have left. Luhnow might still be here, and I hate that he's not. The Astros should have stuck with him like the Red Sox did with Cora. And if the culture in the office was good they would have. It wasn't. It was cut throat and so Crane's hands were tied. And honestly 80% of you would have done the same thing. Personally I would have told the commissioner to pound sand. He has only the authority the owners allow him to have. I'm not asking people to pretend like better moves couldn't have been made, of course in hindsight that's true. But ALL of you thought Abreu was at least the right signing. Maybe not the best contract, but it was lauded EVERYWHERE, including here. Same can be said for many of the moves. Montero was ultimately a below market rate deal and had been outstanding the year before. Even when they go and get Hader there is whining and bitching for getting the best closer in baseball. The truth is if the team doesn't go 120-42 and sweep every Playoff series it isn't enough for some of you. And it's a fucking beating to read.

And I got that bug and went hard after it. Painted the last coat on the top box late last night. Then painted the wall, etc. Got it all installed and cleaned up! I'm pretty excited to be done with it. I can start putting my closet back together now

Actually it's some extra insoles lol. They work amazing in Jordan's and dunks.

It's Bregman, he does this literally every single year. On occasion he's had a week or so and then fallen off. He's always excellent to superb by the time it matters.

Not finished still a good amount to do, but sized it up and got the drawers and drawer fronts installed. I built the top piece to go on as well. Built the top shelving and above that will be my rack mount for my media server. First coat of paint on, hope to have it all done by Friday. Might get a bug up my ass and install the drawer pulls tonight

If you don't tow every day, take your damn hitch off!!! It takes 30 seconds

Face frames and cabinets are one of the easiest things in wood working IMO. Yeah you can make them look janky, but just take your time, don't rush it and you will do a good job. Drawers add complexity as do doors, but even they aren't hard, just time consuming

Almost done with my closet. I redid it (up thread) a while back, but already had an IKEA cabinet that I didn't have time to replace back then and it worked. The rest of the closet was all custom done. With a replacement of the floor I had to take out the IKEA cabinet and no way it was going back in. This is the bottom part, I'll be building a custom part up top with a rack mount for my server and APC I use to run my media throughout the house. But I had to get this in first to know what space I had exactly to do it. Still some work to do but not sure I have it in me today. Need to install the drawers then set the drawer fronts and install drawer pulls That looks fantastic!

Sure you can You can, but your potential table setting is fucked. I get wanting a guy to get an extra AB before the shittiest guy gets another, but that's 1 AB, the rest of the ABs I think you want to try and get runners on before the top of the lineup. Obviously you don't put your next best bats down there, but I've always preferred hiding a guy at 6 or 7 than 9

How about go fuck yourself Maybe go get on your jump to conclusion mat again and try being less of a dumbass

There are plenty of people that need their ass kicked. Plenty of men have gotten slapped and earned it. However, no person should put their hands on another person because they got their feelings hurt. Man on man, woman on woman, man on woman or woman on man. But you don't get to hit someone just because you know they shouldn't hit you back because society says so. If you open the violence floor you can't be surprised that you get violence back.

Yeah, I still can't believe the players union agreed to QO costing draft picks. It was a super shrewd move by the owners to fuck the players and keep salaries down. And outside of the elite of the elite guys, that's exactly what's happened this offseason.

Losing draft picks because you sign a FA may be the dumbest thing in baseball, and that's saying something. I get it was put in specifically for the Yankees back when they would just do whatever they want. But with a multi-tier tax it's completely dumb. Compensatory picks are fine and make some sense, losing draft picks is stupid

Firm believer in the philosophy that you don't hit women. I also lose 100% of sympathy for them if they hit/slap first.

It's really remarkable how entitled people on this thread are to "winning". I've lived 40 plus as an active Astros fan. We've been average as an org for most of that. We're having one of the longest sustained runs of greatness any team has ever had and every other comment is bitch ass whining. Clearly not every decision has been perfect, but there are zero hampering contracts on this team that aren't 1-2 years based (Montero/Abreu) and even those were market value (argue with someone else, you're flat wrong if you don't think so). No one keeps a farm system AND sustains winning that isn't one of the 2-3 richest teams in baseball, and even they have struggled with it at times. And oh by the way we were a game away from being in the WS AGAIN last year. Now people think Bregman hasn't lived up to his contract or sucks? Or that the Astros should have resigned Correa or Springer, even with your own eyes seeing they can't stay healthy and have been shells of what they were here since they left? Get the fuck out of here with that nonsense.

I think I pay 2.30 a quarter for the chronicle website or something silly like that. I pay $12 for the Athletic. Athletic is much more value but constantly pisses me off with who they hire to cover Houston.

Never from what I can see unless it was before the modern era and I got bored before I found it. https://www.espn.com/mlb/history/nohitters You could likely get it in a 3 year period a few times
