  2. Certainly in his wheelhouse, but why would they take the people there, then ask for payment, then not take them back? Ask for payment upfront and if they refuse tell them to fuckoff.
  3. Only hope is that whichever of the kids takes over, they don't have the same ego and need to micromanage and take credit for everything. I don't know enough about them to know if they would hire a GM and just bask in the money. That's what I would do.
  4. I thought I posted this before but couldn't find it in the thread. The review was clearly mixed. I think the author here is probably right, it praises Carmy as an obvious genius but criticizes the staff for failing to execute consistently, including with service. His concern is that he's going to have to address that the staff he's put together isn't good enough. Because they are key characters they aren't going to be fired, but there is going to be serious drama in how to make them better and he's going to struggle with how to do that without becoming a complete asshole like Joel McHale's character. https://www.npr.org/2024/06/28/nx-s1-5020609/the-bear-season-3-ending-finale-restaurant-review
  5. The roster's have been decent to good to really good over the years. It's why they've managed to win the East and make the playoffs far more than they should. The reason good coaches don't want to work for Jerry is because he wants credit for everything and has to be hammered over the head if the coach wants a player drafted that Jerry doesn't like, and they often seem to lose those arguments. It's why we get nothing but fat fucking retreads or guys in their fucking 80s hanging on. Those clowns couldn't win a title with Pat Mahomes because they are fucking losers who can't keep up with the game. Can you imagine how boring Mahomes would look if Jason Garrett had been in charge of his offense? JFC, just the same drop back nonsense that works sometimes and when it doesn't, no adjustments, because they are too stupid and lame to fight back.
  6. I did yard work all day. It stopped being appointment viewing several years ago. Up to even last year I usually listened to Babe and Brad but didn't even bother yesterday. Full meltdown felt inevitable. Oh well, fuck Jerry.
  7. Who fucking cares, once he loses, he's fucking done, and we can all move the fuck on. Let the republican party try to move past him, not our fucking problem anymore.
  8. I don’t see the base being as fired up this time since he’s not currently in office but Biden will definitely out the military on high alert to prevent another insurrection. Also more cameras to catch them all and lock them the fuck away.
  9. Fuck ou
  10. Why does he look like he’s taking a shit?
  11. Even if China pays the tariff its still an increased cost on the importer/purchaser. It's not that difficult even if you don't understand the mechanics.
  12. Three surlyites looking for a fourth?
  13. It's always pissed me off that student loan interest deduction is capped and subject to pretty low phaseout. I'd push to make it unlimited regardless of other student loan relief.
  14. Preventing price gouging = SOCIALISM! Telling credit card companies what to do = MAN OF THE PEOPLE! These people are hopeless and I fucking hate them.
  15. Mad boomer energy here. I don't like much of the modern stuff because it objectively look dumb. "Work clothes" is such a cheesy concept. It's still a game being played for its entertainment value for people getting wasted in the stands, parking lot, or on their couch. I just think there is a lot of ugly shit being worn these days.
  16. Blaming democrats because millions of people are too stupid to understand that republicans have fucked the economy for them every time they gain power is certainly a take. Trying to get to them is a waste of time because they are literally too stupid to convince.
  17. Then it was poor execution because they looked dumb as shit.
  18. No, the review was mixed, not enough to kill it, Carmy will do better, rely more on Syd, reconcile with Claire, get his star, series finale. I think it’s pretty obvious unless they just want to be obscurely dark with the conclusion, or cheesy like him going back to slinging sandwiches and finding peace. I sorta liked the Faks. Just more absurdity that your fat funny mechanic friend becomes a server/host at your restaurant that’s pursuing Michelin stars. We’ve already suspended belief that Richie became a pro after four days of training and a complete change in perspective, adding Fak feels like too much of a stretch.
  19. Powerful stuff from Obama. I don’t understand the dynamic of rallies well enough, how will his words get to the people who need to hear them? Everyone in that room is already voting for Harris.
  20. Oh shit he’s gonna post some angry ass truths tonight lol
  21. Is it your expectation that the BIG and SEC will go to unequal distributions? Because if so, there is some logic here, but not if Purdue continues making $80M same as Michigan. The money their talking about at the top is absurdly more than any plausible possibility under the current structure. I also don't see how PE would have much control over anything, the networks will still be in charge of pretty much everything, because their the ones paying. PE would just be getting their share. I do agree that the proposal seems plausible without PE money but I'm no expert on private equity.
  22. I agree, it's not happening, not even a conversation starter.
  23. I think this is just random fan fic, the Project Rudy article says that the conference structure would remain the same.
  24. I literally had a conversation yesterday afternoon that I saw a headline that the dome was being set up with cots for emergency workers to ride out the storm and said that the roof has always looked like tissue paper and would definitely blow off. How was this not entirely expected?
