I mean - they have much more bargaining leverage than someone in marketing or whatever. There are thousands of people in marketing that can do basically the same shit. There are not multiple Caitlin Clark or A'Ja Wilson's. The street you're talking about goes both ways. If I'm Caitlin Clark and you're telling me "what are you going to do, go play basketball somewhere else?" I'm saying "Bitch I might - what are you going to do, find another Caitlin Clark?" The only reason these ladies don't have (or haven't had) as much leverage as NBA or MLB players is because the financials are a lot messier and the league isn't as profitable. As the money shoots up and the league becomes profitable or even breaks even (which I'm betting it's close to already) so does the bargaining power that the players have. Sure - but there are a lot of numbers between 9 and 30 π I would assume they get more than they financially "deserve" because they are already dragging this out into a PR mess that a fairly infant league isn't going to want to deal with.

Especially if one of them gets him, too, with a military-grade assault rifle legally purchased from an Academy along with a pair of Crocs and a fishing shirt. -

I think the gameplay is pretty fucking great. Some issues with run blocking and faulty animations, but overall, not a ton of complaints. Here are the issues that I'm having in offline dynasty. Most of these issues were not present in the games from 02-14, so no idea why they can't figure this out: - Imbalance home/away schedules. 5 straight home games to start the season? Followed by 7 straight away games? No thanks. -Rankings. My team is 7-0 with wins over multiple top 15 teams, but I'm ranked #18 with multiple 3-4 loss teams ranked ahead of me. Including 2 teams that I've defeated. -Dealbreakers. Ramped up way to high. Everyone wants to transfer. Even starters who have "playing time" as their dealbreaker. Lower ranked teams are having 20 transfers every year, and with their poor recruiting classes, are having to fill with walk-ons in later seasons.

Also, I assume this is his last season. Future front office move for the Clippers? I could see him doing that or on TV -

Not to make this about baseball, but some of the imbalances were ameliorated with the way cable contracts worked, and the fact that many regional baseball teams could make a mint off of cable subscriptions regardless of the demand for the programming. Now that the entire market has collapsed, the advantage the Yankees and Dodgers have over everyone else is further exaggerated. It's also been going on so long there's a certain acceptance among small market fans that there's no realistic chance their rosters will ever compete for the playoffs, and that's their lot in life. But that doesn't mean they like it. It helps that neither the Dodgers nor Yankees have been able to string together a series of World Series wins, even with their competitive advantages. I'm simply saying this idea there's no pushback regarding the competitive advantages the Yankees and Dodgers enjoy in baseball is not true. -
This isn't news is it? House Oversight Committee to subpoena Ghislaine Maxwell for testimony https://nypost.com/2025/07/22/us-news/house-oversight-committee-to-subpoena-ghislaine-maxwell-for-testimony/ I mean it's fucking Comer and Burchett we're talking about. They ain't doing shit for any real transparency.

You're welcome. I do think there may be a miscommunication here: stable coin is a technical term. I'm now realizing you may have meant stable descriptively rather than intentionally referring to the class of coins that are designed to peg themselves to some reference target (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stablecoin). Mea culpa for any confusion. -
A few years back, my son (around 21 at the time) and some buddies road tripped to Zion National Park by way of Balmorhea State Park and the Grand Canyon over like 4 or 5 day period. I think they had a place to sleep for maybe 2 nights total. Driving, swimming, hiking essentially non-stop. I was nervous, but all was fine and he looks at it as a great memory and cool experience with friends. I'd have loved it when I was his age, but sounds miserable to my 50+ year old self. What kind of vehicle are they in? 6 adults and 2 dogs may get a little tight. I'm sure your son will have a blast.
