  1. If only people could have foreseen such a thing when this deal was announced ... Oh wait we really did. The move to Apple TV brough them big cash at the cost of growth. It was a very short sighted decision and the league either needs to get out of the deal or find a way to get more games on TV. And I said it before, the league needs a show like Drive to Survive or Welcome to Wrexham, etc to target younger fans.
  2. I've run this request through the LLMs, so I have a good idea of what I need, so now I am coming here to ask if any of you guys know a specific someone to talk to. Here is the cliff notes version of the story: My maternal grandmother died around 2003. My mom and her sister never executed the estate (San Antonio, Texas) through probate*. We are now 20+ years past my grandmother's death, and there are issues of back taxes and a property that has been sitting dormant for over two decades. * lots of denial, not wanting to face reality and a bunch of other things I'm looking for an estate and probate attorney, someone with experience in "late probate," "heir-ship proceedings," or "estate administration". So anyone involved in this or have a recommendation? Thanks in advance.
  3. I never figured out the way through and said fuck it. What was the way to to do it?

  5. How does this make any sense? 1. Logistics - getting into the stadium is going to be a nightmare. Getting 45,000 people to a stadium already takes a long time and that's bringing people from all around. Now you are adding the need to get that group of people UP 75 stories along with the rest of the logistical nightmare. Good luck. 2. Wind - this is a known issue at upper floors of buildings. Let's ignore the building issues (sway and so many people at that altitude), but affect on the games played in this building? I have a feeling that wind would make the game really hard to play at that kind of altitude.

  7. I'm surprised that the Tesla earnings didn't make more of a dent here. Despite the fact that revenue rose 12 percent, to $28.1 billion, profit fell 37 percent, to $1.4 billion from a year earlier. This was due to slashing prices on cars and the fact that there was a huge run on cars due to expiring Tax credits. Given the expired credit, I can't see their next quarter's earning being that good at all.

  8. EFL cup match this week at Newcastle (Wednesday), Chelsea at home next week Injury Updates: Romero (hip) - It's sounding like he will be back for Chelsea Kota Tokai (Foot) - yet to play this year, but looking to be ready Nov 8 for Man U Udogie (Knee) - also hopeful for Man U Bissouma (Foot) - They have Man U as a possibility, but I think he will be longer Solanke (Foot) - he's progressing, they are saying Man U Kulusevski (Knee) - They listed date is Nov 22 (Arsenal), but I am not holding my breath Dragusin (Knee) - also listed for end of Nov, we'll see. Davies (Thigh) - also listed for end of Nov, hopefully the team needs bodies Maddison - maybe early in the new year, but not holding my breath.
  9. I’ll take that. What a big win.
  10. Dang, Richie could have put this to bed.
  11. So you’re saying you sign/seal things without checking/reading them?
  12. There isn't a chat app alive that Microsoft can't kill. Skype, Kaizala, MSN Messenger, Windows Messenger Amazingly MS can always find a way to make these apps worse. Teams used to be bad but somewhat usable. Now it is just flat awful. A feature like this won't put the dagger in it, but it won't help. Slack is amazing (built on IRC) and if Microsoft bought it, they would find a way to destroy it too.
  13. Game day! Not excited about a trip to Everton, but LFG!!!
  14. I find nothing weird about this. Hell, ATK had a whole piece up on sheet pans and how you should have just about every size, they aren't wrong. Hmmm, being on travel, I can't come up with anything right now. I'll look when I get back.
  15. Giving that goal to Casamiro is generous. That was off frame.
  16. I just landed at ABIA and had to drive to Dripping springs. THAT SUCKED. The rental car had the worst wipers in existence. The temp feels great right now.
  17. Turner is WAY out of form. The lack of regular playtime really got him rusty. With the Revs missing the playoffs I don’t see when he will next have time to get in form. Heck, what’s his loan status now that the season is over for the Revs?
  18. Fuck it was the entire 10th episode of Welcome to Wrexham (there I go with the soccer again!). Its the episode about hooligans and it basically points out they are a byproduct of disaffected youth. It's England's version in a documentary.
  19. Who do you start ahead of Freese? The guy is in form unlike anyone else. Sure Turner could get there, but when? How?
  20. Like Jason Sudeikis said "I don't get why Ted Lasso is so popular. It's about two things Americans hate - Soccer and being nice." Fair point. Though I will say because of my empathy, I do go out of my way to spend my money in these areas. Frequent the shops, spend in the towns when/where I can. I mean one reason I want to be in the sticks is because I like these out of the way places and I want them to thrive. I'm at least trying to do my part.
  21. They'll give a fuck when they lose their jobs. Jack Welsh has to be listened to, even in death.
