  1. These two are just on another planet. They way he got passed - it was the struggle caboose.
  2. This is shaping up to be an amazing TT after everyone has gone through the first checkpoint.
  3. Yesterday was one of the most impressive things I have seen on a bike. I agree Pog went deep into the red yesterday. I wonder if he pays a price today. Granted, the last few years when I questioned him, he blows the race away.
  4. Fascinating
  5. CHEIF PEOPLE OFFICER?!?!?
  6. The best stages

  8. Fantastic film - almost went back and watched it because of this post. I think Simmons is a dork, but his two part piece on the film is a recommended read: https://www.espn.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/020411 https://www.espn.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/060420 As far as your points: Grama/Worm - They were "partners" but you can tell Worm totally fucked him over. I always got the sense that Grama might have gotten some heat for all the money Worm owed being his partner, that combined with Worm being a dick, you get why he was an asshole to him. Grama pissed - that is one thing my old roommate thought was weird about that. Granted the way he was to the dog, you got that he was kind of sadistic and liked inflicting pain/punishment. Nah, she was clean, she knew his buddies from his poker days because she overlapped withi his poker life. Petra - TRUTH. The writers totally dropped the ball there (mentioned in part 2 above) Professor - LOL Chan - yeah, but it sells to to most people watching Police game - yeah, that would have been the smart play. Granted, maybe he hasn't made the money needed yet. There is talk that everyone involved in the film wants a sequel now. I agree they should have had one in the 2000s, but maybe having one now would be better?

  10. New at the Grok gift shop:
  11. You can't say he doesn't know his customers.
  12. I think he means he cancelled his free trial subscription.
  13. I heard a great interview this morning on ON with Kara Swisher. She interviewed Adam Becker who just wrote More Everything Forever: AI Overlords, Space Empires, and Silicon Valley's Crusade to Control the Fate of Humanity. I think the name isn't very good, but the basis of the book is that Silicon Valley and the tech bros are trying to sell us this vision of the future which is nothing more than what they see in Science Fiction and doesn't have an sort of basis in reality. Examples: AI - the companies talk about Artificial General Intelligence, but few of them define it. Those that do have very vague answers. Case in point the Open AI charter: What the hell is that? Why does it have to be economically valuable work? Etc. Travel to Mars - I mean he basically calls this pure fantasy. Reduced of gravity, lack of air, lack of usable soil - hell all of the soil is damn poison, lack of radiation protection that the Earth has. Elon talks about terra-forming - really cool in films, but totally implausible in any near future. Anyway a really good listen, I recommend it.
  14. Hope someone’s taking notes today.
  15. Can van der Poel keep this lead? 3.5 KM just passed, but I don't think he can do it now.
  16. That looks like 2 counts.

  18. And what's going to happen to that cash?
  19. I can't speak for Brighton at all. Spurs signed Bissouma in the final month of the investigation and he never played for Spurs while the investigation was ongoing. Make no mistake, there were a lot of fans that did not like the fact that Spurs signed him. I was not aware of anything before his signing, but I was among those that wasn't happy with it when I heard about the circumstances. I was glad he was cleared. Yet the continued to play Partey when they knew this was going on. This is my stance too. There is nothing wrong with calling out your own team for actions like this. But wasn't he team Beard post arrest?
  20. Yes, but frankly I have much bigger fish to fry.
  21. Each and every one of those people should be forced to go to every fucking funeral of everyone that died.
  22. If you’re going to neuter FEMA like this you might as well get rid of it, right?
  23. Well I gotta say by deporting this fuck stick, Make America Great Again did it's job.
