  1. Oh I should have predicted this one. I'm not giving to Trump, I'm giving to a Super PAC!! You're not donating to Trump, got it.
  2. Geez, reading that, you can see that Elon wants to make Tesla into the everything company So they sell cars, they sell batteries, they sell regulatory credits. And they want to sell robots, AI and run a taxi service.
  3. Did a slower burn on Season 3. Just finished it tonight. Downer of a season, but seasons 1 & 2 were so good, I have faith they will right the ship for season 4. And frankly I did like the season. Was it great? not the standards of Seasons 1 & 2, but it was good. Seasons 1 & 2 just set the bar so high, sometimes it makes followups tricky. I fell that this season didn't have a singular focus to get to. I mean Season 1 was just the restaurant surviving. Season 2 was them opening the Bear. Season 3 was ... ? I did like the wrap up in the Finale and yeah the cliffhanger was pretty straight forward.
  4. https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/aston-villa-tottenham-locelso-martinez-33291451 Jacob Ramsey from Villa for Giovani Lo Celso and cash.
  5. Yeah I’m watching it - FS2. Cuba isn’t very good. The US is significantly better.
  6. Interesting, I never knew that the Bills use Tottenham Hotspur stadium as the inspiration of their new stadium (which will be completed in 2026). I put some videos in the spoiler section for space.
  7. It's almost like they forgot something
  8. Why did I get your email and why did you get mine? Well I am on the streak of 2 years no tickets again.
  9. Just some guy grading potential coaches. The underlying news shows that we are still really early and real negotiations are probably a ways off.
  10. Let's not forget the Robotaxi has been delayed until October https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-07-11/tesla-plans-to-delay-robotaxi-unveiling-to-october-from-august?embedded-checkout=true https://cleantechnica.com/2024/07/16/elon-musk-confirming-delayed-tesla-robotaxi-event-confirms-other-things/ The second article is super key, because they point out - despite the event, they probably are just going to show you something and then not be anywhere close to delivering it: Emphasis all mine.
  11. If every accusation is a confession by some of these sickos, I will just say that Elon Musk has a history of calling people or implying that they are a pedo a lot. The two guys that come to mind for me was Vern Unsworth, that British cave diver involved with the rescue of the Thai soccer team, and Yoel Roth, former head of Trust and Safety at Twitter.
  12. @Trey3216 pretty much nailed it - to be a top flight soccer player you need to be both physically and mentally/tactically good. So these guys all know and understand the tactics being used. I would also note that when you look at a lot of the top managers that came from being top players - you had a lot of midfielders and defenders - thus they saw the game develop in front of them. I would say you have a lot of variety of player quality too. Mourinho was pretty meh as a player, outstanding manager. Poch was solid. Pep was a very good player..Beckenbauer, Cruyff and Ancelotti were great players. I would also say look at each sport too: Baseball - a lot of catchers - managers on the field if you will. Basketball - bench, role players, point guards - guys that watch the game a lot and the floor managers. Football - I think the position specialization makes coaching something you have to focus on early. Beyond Ditka, I can't think of a recent player that turned into a great head coach.
  13. I finally was able to wrap up this show. Christ it was shit. Meandering pointless shit that made no sense. There isn't much to say that hasn't been said about this show. After the 5th episode, when things were cool - it just ran off the track. It was like they were filming and they said - ok, Episode 6, 7 and 8 start filming tomorrow. And the writers were like SHIT YOU WANT MORE? What a waste of time. Fuck that cliff hanger, just end it all.
  14. I hope the money saved on security was worth it for CONMEBOL, because they are getting sued.
  15. It was also noted that Vieira split with his job today. Could be so he could take the USMNT job?
  16. On Vieira - that's a perfectly fine take. He might not be the right guy for the job. I have no issue with debating if someone is or isn't the right guy, so long as they have some track record that means they should be in the discussion (because the names I hear USSF throwing around aren't even close). I will note that the Vieira part is only a small part of the whole interview and tacked on right at the end. You don't need to listen, but I will tell you it is one of the few well reasons discussions on the state of US Soccer that has been had by the Mainstream media. Twellman and Hercules are right now the only guys doing that right now. Lalas - yeah, whatever. Meola and Davies are kind of ill informed. I will say this - if you have interest in and care about this team, you should listen. The guy talks about the federation demonstrating accountability, the approach this hire should be. It's some pretty smart talk. He does get silly at the end, but whatever.
