  1. Trump doesn’t have a strategy. He has one idea that he thinks is the greatest thing ever - Tariffs. Additionally, he has groups that he wants to punish and lastly he has the owners that he has to repay (eg, Putin, Elon, etc). Dont try and overthink this.
  2. I had no idea who he was or any political leanings. I just thought he was some stand-in for that stupid Bud Light commercial. My problem with the episode is that he has no range as a comedian. He has exactly the same delivery and material in every sketch.
  3. The S&P 500 is now negative since Election Day.
  4. Holy Idiocracy, Batman - The Cletus’s are multiplying.
  5. It’s like watching Memento!
  6. Completely agree - This was terrible.
  7. I miss Benford Williams.
  8. So did Quinn look good today or what?
  9. Here’s the counterpoint: 1. Diaz doesn’t regain his fly ball stroke, doesn’t hit for power and is a league average catcher. 2. Walker slightly regresses. 3. Guillorme has only played more than 100 games in 1 season. With him playing against right-handed starters, he wilts later in the season and doesn’t hit for league average against righties. 4. Peña doesn’t improve on offense and throws 20 balls into the dugout behind 1b. 5. Instead of HRs, Paredes mashes a ton of hard hit singles into the LF wall. 6. Altuve regresses to his early years with respect to plate discipline and hits for 300 with no power. 7. Chas sucks and becomes unplayable. Meyers starts for over 100 games. Melton shows he’s not the answer in AAA. 8. Yordan plays less than 100 games due to injury. 9. Framber wilts under the pressure of pitching in a contract year and we get no relief from any of the pitchers rehabbing from TJ. 10. We get inconsistent Hader. I really think the outcome is in between our 2 posts and the Astros win 90 games and the West.
  10. I’ve never done the tour because Turkish Air’s business class lounge in Istanbul is amazing - really good food and self-serve liquor.
  11. Exactly - The property tax savings when I lived in Colorado were significant.
  12. I don’t think this word means what you think it means.
  13. I’ve always been shocked that Chevron has been able to retain that license for this long.
  14. Hoosiers is my favorite sports movie. RIP Coach Dale
  15. Per Facebook, measles were brought into Texas via migrants crossing illegally while smuggling fentanyl.
  16. I have Directv Stream with the sports package. I had to log into the ESPN app with my directv stream login to find the Sec+ games.
  17. He’s the President. The whole - “Buck stops here.” If he didn’t want DOGE or wanted it to operate differently, he could change it.
  18. which will immediately raise gas prices across the Midwest. He’s a moron.
  19. The last 2 times at the Wynn I had to check out at the desk because they fucked up my comps.
  20. I’ve never seen Avatar and Titanic.
  21. I completely agree with this point. I only posted because it appeared to me that Gator is essentially misrepresenting his point.
  22. I hate speaking for Ag with Kids but generally speaking most people view the effectiveness of a gerrymander as the delta between who wins House elections as compared to how a state votes on a statewide basis. That’s why he is pointing to the discrepancy between statewide totals and representation in the house. Clearly individual candidates matter as well. Interestingly, I learned tonight that California has a somewhat independent commission drawing house districts. New York has something similar. The comparison to Texas is poor because the Texas Rs have effectively reached the limits of their ability to further gerrymander house seats. After the 2020 census, they had to give numerous safe seats to the Democratic Party to keep the majority of R incumbents safe. Both California and New York have several competitive seats.
  23. Shedrick is the least athletic big man at Texas since George Muller.
