  1. Maybe they can use AI to give every possible alternate ending, including one where the Night King wins and turns Cersei and Daenerys into his zombie concubines.
  2. Mateer’s going to play?
  3. A real MAGA movement would be to eliminate the middle men in major industries such as healthcare, real estate, autos, student loans, etc. that siphon money for "services" that could be eliminated or replaced.
  4. Yeah, PA doesn't work when you can't effectively run the ball.
  5. Hopefully he doesn't adopt the Belichick strategies.
  6. Have we been able to consistently run between the tackles since Mackovic and Ricky Williams? We've had a lot of 4/5 star backs and several made it to the NFL, but it seems like a 25 year theme of soft ass zone blocking and hoping the RB can find a crease and make a play on his own. Greg Davis, Shawn Watson, Tim Beck, Sark... The years when we had dynamic running threats at QB (VY, Colt, Sam), it was enough to keep defenses off balance and the RBs were able to find more of those creases.
  7. I’m somewhat chuckling about this. 10 years ago we were misled by the developers that all of Mueller was zoned to Maplewood elementary and McCallum hs. We figured out that we were just east of a dividing line after plunking down a big deposit so we just rolled with it. There was such hypocrisy of people preaching to “east Muellerites” to happily send their kids to Blanton and Reagan/NE, while being uppity about their kids’ schools (or if they had money, sending their kids to private schools). Maplewood (and maybe McCallum) were too full to accept transfers so we were stuck. We ended up bailing to the burbs when our kids started school. Now the west muellerites can practice what they preached.
  8. No idea. FLA went out of bounds and it was 2nd and short, clock stopped. I thought it could’ve been a clever play to jump offsides intentionally to give them the first down and rob them of at least one play. After the penalty but before the snap on 1st and 10, they wound the clock. Seemed incorrect and cost us 35 seconds.
  9. No, but only if you think he's going to keep hitting that way. I stopped expecting it a long time ago, especially when players have outlier statistical years about the time they are up for a contract extension. * Also, Jake Meyers hit 0.300 this year. Is he untradeable and expected to maintain that next season?
  10. I think some dumbass rich team would give good value for Yordan as a splash move where they can boast about his hitting and good contract. If good value is offered, I’d take it in a second and thank Yordan for his 2022 postseason bat. Peña’s trade value is likely at its all time peak this offseason. I don’t know if I’d do it, but we do have Paredes or Cam that could play 3B and slide Correa back to SS.
  11. I’ve seen a lot of speculation on punishments to the Clippers (fines, loss of draft picks, salary cap holds, owner suspension and/or forced to sell). All I’ve heard about the player is the contract will be voided. WTF? He clearly knew what they were doing. At a minimum he should be fined the amount of the fake NIL payments and/or suspended. Voiding his contract makes him a free agent and theoretically rewards him. NBA needs to send a message to players as well that might try that shit in the future.
  12. He usually rotates those kids at 1B, SS, P every inning (so none of the other kids get reps learning those positions). It manifests into the kids can never throw to 3B, home, or the 2B as a cutoff man. It's madness.
  13. We're approaching mutiny on our 7u fall rec ball team. It seems the head coach thinks (starting before the first game) the only way we can win the final championship game (assuming we make it) is a strategy of leaning on 3 kids, one of which is his son who he plays at SS. He scolds the other 9 players for making the correct baseball play, like throwing the ball in front of the lead runner, or 3B throwing to 2B for a force out, because "they are too risky for 6 and 7 year olds" and insists that if any other player fields a ball, they must throw it to one of the 3 "good" players no matter the situation or where those players are in the field. In practices, he assigned kids to a permanent "A", "B", and "C" group that run different drills based on how he wants to play in the game. The irony is that we could beat the top two teams by season's end if most of the roster got development and were allowed to attempt the correct plays, make mistakes, and improve. It sucks when you're 3 or 4 games into a season and you already have to write it off because most of the kids (including mine) aren't getting the right reps in practice and are being instructed to make incorrect plays in games. Now that my older son and his friends moved to select, I'm going to have to come out of retirement to coach the younger crew.
  14. Usually if it’s a drop dead stop time mid-inning and the home team is losing, you revert to the score before the last inning started. It would be weird to give the visitors an extra at-bat then call ball game.
  15. I’d have traded Framber by the deadline since he was at highest value, didn’t want a reasonable extension, and (in my perception) had a shitty attitude. I’d definitely shop Yordan. We know he’s an injury factory, but he still gets a lot of national hype and it would be considered a blockbuster trade for whoever gets him so hopefully the return would be good. DFA LMJ because he’s had bad juju for the team since his 2022 WS implosion. The Jose Abreu and Montero contracts are off the books this offseason, right? If Peña and Scott Boras are eyeing some mega extension based on one great season out of his four, I’d listen to trade offers for him too (Paredes 3B, Correa SS?). Same for Jake Meyers whose average this year should yield the best return we’d ever get for him. Reload AAA, see who’s ready to move up from AAAA, find value FA’s to fill in the gaps.
  16. Hopefully he shows up at practices and games to help with leadership and motivation. I love KD and his game, but the Rockets are in trouble if they depend on him as a team leader unless they are in a Twitter war. It’s time for Sengun, Tari, Jabari, and Amen to grow up.
  17. If he passes, Tweeder better watch his six. That fucker Kilmer is playing the long game.
  18. Will heaven have wifi, and if so do I need a VPN to continue posting on this site?
  19. CJ is represented by David Mulugheta. Prepare for the contract extension next year for highest dollars ever and no trade clause, then stage a forced exit.
  20. Is that really analogous to people saying Kirk got what he deserved or was asking for it by saying things the left considers hate speech? Some righty or NRA fanboy ever said the kids had it coming?
