  1. If ever an embellishment call were warranted, ….
  2. He just plays so soft; his game just isn’t optimized for the playoffs.
  3. If we’d have had Pevs, we’d have beat Minnesota in 4
  4. Which, judging by literally every game thread, season thread, realignment discussion, and recruiting evaluation, is wildly out of character for this site.
  5. Literally every fucking judge. The Inflation Reduction Act, the CHIPS Act, the Infrastructure Act. Oh, you're going to say that we had one vote to spare. But that means you're relying on Kyrsten Sinema. And that means you really didn't have one vote to spare, because you cannot rely on Kyrsten Sinema.
  6. I join you in your optimism. The poll out last week (maybe the Texas Tribune; maybe someone else--I don't remember) had Trump up 4 against Biden. It had DeSantis up 6 or 7 on Biden. But DeSantis is going to lose his ass in the primary, so that doesn't fucking matter. Four points isn't just a whole lot. It definitely says that Trump is a loser nationally. Any Republican who can only win Texas by 4 is going to get his ass kicked nationally. And losing has a momentum all its own. Nobody wants to turn out for a loser; nobody wants to campaign or fundraise for a loser. Show me a presidential candidate who is losing by 6 on October 15 and I'll show you a candidate who's losing by 10 on Election Day. Point being--Trump is going to be a drag on the ticket. And Ted Cruz is not the kind of guy who is going to provide his own boost.
  7. It’s just delicious. Fuck Boston in all its sporting forms.
  8. They ought to start deducting points from Spurs total for every time they lose by more than three goals. Because right now, no side deserves relegation more than Spurs.
  9. I will be downright shocked if this game doesn’t go to overtime. #reversejinx
  10. I've stayed at the Grand Hyatt more times than I care to recount owing to flight cancelations and such. I mean, I'm never happy when I'm there. But you get a nice room with a view of the ramp and runways. The bar is actually good. And it's really nice to be a few steps away from the TSA checkpoint.
  11. I don't think you're right on that. It's not one of the Speaker's priorities (far from it), and they're getting down to crunch time on things that are far more important. It's not to say that it won't pass in future sessions; it is to say that I don't think it's going to pass in this one.
  12. You need to clarify the thread title to make it apparent that we are talking about a prolific public masturbator. Because as it now reads, pretty much all of Surly is like “you’re goddamned right I’m roaming free.”
  13. And yet, contrary to expectations, I'm not shocked.
  14. Eh—I’ve been out drinking with Dean Evason back in the day. Darcy Wakaluk was there, too. They’re good people.
  15. Well, I’m usually not into that kind of thing, but when you’re right, you’re right.
