  1. Yeah, I had at least a dozen of the ones on this top 100 list: https://brickranker.com/rankings/sets. It's got to be worth a ton to the right collector. Blackbeard's ship, the Clipper, El Dorado, Black Knight Castle, Forestman Hideout, Enchanted Island, Monorail Transport Base, Monorail Transport System, Inter-Galactic Command Base... Tons and tons more, I had a whole city setup, the Aquanauts base with a bunch of ships, Western sets, the Robin Hood sets, space, pirates, etc. So many sets, it's really all I asked for as presents for Christmas and birthday for several years. I hope it's all OK up there, I haven't looked at it in many years.
  2. Watching Clase come into the game in the 8th with 2 on, knowing you fully intend on him pitching the 9th, felt very much like an Espada decision. I know it's the playoffs, but changing things up probably isn't the best idea to do to your closer who only pitched more than 1 inning one time all year. He proceeded to blow the game, but it reminded me of several instances where they did the same thing to Hader.
  3. I had this set as a kid, we got it before they made all the cannons duds, so it had 4 spring loaded cannons. It was awesome. It's in a container in my parents attic somewhere, along with probably 2-300 other sets. Need to go claim them sometime...
  4. Awesome kick there, probably could have been another 5+ yards back and still made it. Kami really bailed them out this game, that should have been a 10 point win.
  5. Well that was not good...
  6. We are paying more than league minimum for Robert Woods, instead of cutting him and saving millions this offseason...
  7. Great job defense!
  8. Poor effort by Diggs there, didn't even try to tag the guy down. I'm kinda happy he will be gone after this season, that trade seems like a huge waste of draft capital and 22 million dollars of cap space.
  9. I didn't realize the NFL allowed Big 12 refs to do their games.
  10. Well that was a shitty end to the season. I thought they would at least win 1 against the Tigers, and we would get to see Skubal vs Kikuchi tomorrow for a win or go home game. There are a lot of questions for the off-season, but if they can find a way to keep Bregman and Kikuchi, I think they could round out the roster pretty well from there and win the division again next year. They aren't sunk yet, and if Tucker doesn't get a freak injury off a foul ball, this team probably has 93+ wins and a first round bye. Anyway, that's baseball. Get em next year.
  11. Same, I have no idea why it did that.
  12. Yikes, not getting much action at all here. Need one more shutdown inning from Brown, then go to the pen.
  13. But I want it NOW!!!
  14. C'mon Pena, show us some of that 2022 magic you had...
  15. Time to do some damage, let's gooooo
  16. Not a prosecutor, and informed politician, which is what he's supposed to be. At times he looked a bit baffled or lost his place in his answer, which isn't a great look for someone who has been prepping for this for over a week. JD blamed numerous things on "Kamala's Policies" without pushback, not even a question of "which policies exactly, please explain so we can actually debate?" His job is to call that stuff out as well as explain how their policies will make things better. He he did the latter numerous times, and was good at bringing things about how to focus on the future and make things better.
  17. I love Walz, he's a good dude, and I'm happy to have him as Veep, but his inability to lob mortars back at JD tonight makes me appreciate Kamala's performance in the last debate so much more. She was a fucking sniper shooting holes in Trump's bullshit all night and destroyed him at every turn. I think Walz was mostly trying to follow a script rather than pivot on bullshit that JD spewed and call him out on his lies. He got him on a few things like the 2020 election, but there were a lot of shots fired by JD that went unanswered. Oh well, it's just a meaningless VP debate.
  18. That was a good round for Tim, JD can't say who won the 2020 election and wants to avoid any talk of Jan6.
  19. Ya know who would be really good at taking care of kids and providing daycare for working families while working for a reasonable cost? Immigrant women...
  20. I wonder how much JD had to rehearse the adoring lines about his wife. Probably took a few weeks to work out the glitches.
  21. They need to make this a meme, people claiming ordinary things were always available before Trump and giving his "leadership" credit for it. "I ordered a 7 layer beef burrito under Donald Trump's leadership!" "I saved 15% on my car insurance under Donald Trump's leadership!" "I had sexual relations with my LayZBoy under Donald Trump's leadership!"
  22. Ok, I just laughed out loud at JD's "even some people in my family got insurance under Donald Trump's leadership!"
  23. Yeah, but you can't let that slip. There is no reason to claim that mass shootings are being committed by guns trafficked through a porous border, we have more guns than people in the country there is no short supply. So many of the recent shootings were obtained legally, and in some cases, they never should have been sold in the first place. We have plenty of opportunities in legislation to address it and reduce the frequency. JD is trying to conflate "illegally obtained firearms used in shootings" which happens plenty, with "firearms trafficked by cartels" which is a venn diagram that barely overlaps.
