Ironic that they were the smartest team out there, but lost due to foolish mistakes instead of that knee. I thought for sure they had no chance going in, because usually the last leg includes a good bit of running.
Overall, as someone mentioned, a pretty forgetable season.
Daughter said they let the kids watch part of the game in her grade school. Son said same about his high school, and that at lunch break, every table had a group watching the game on a laptop. Pretty, pretty cool.
Saw an article on Daily Mail about how the wait times have increased substantially compared to pre-covid. Not uncommon now for a two hour wait for Rise of the Resistance in CA.
Wife and kids have an annual pass (I declined to renew mine). They went yesterday to Disney, got a total of two middle tier rides in over a five hour stay. Went to CA tonight. Just texted me that they waited 80 minutes for Soaring when app said 45.
Employees are getting more surly, the whole experience is losing value. These things take a while to germinate, but Disney best get their shit together, or the wrath of the consumer will come.
I never watch NFL pregame shows, but the German game ended and I turned on CBS for a minute, and was just timed perfectly to catch this. It was such contrived and obviously rehearsed bullshit. Dude was nervous as hell, constantly checking his notes to get the names of the "overlooked" assistants right, all while trying to maintain this passionate, "impromptu" take down of the Colts. And then the rest of the crew acting like Bill just couldn't hold himself back, he was so upset. Fucking pathetic
I believe the four days off are really going to impact Philly in a negative way. Realize the Astros face the same thing, but have that playoff/WS experience to handle it better.
Been watching a lot of Seinfeld episodes lately, as it's on so often. Noticed a definite drop off in writing quality after Larry left.
Also, i've realized more how brilliant the Kramer and George actors were, and not far behind Elaine.
There are a million paths to redemption. Going to Fed prison until the end of your days to gain the respect of the woman you love is not an optimal one.
I'd have preferred they ended the series with a drone shot of Saul executing a drive down the fairway of the course on that cush prison he negotiated, and we can let our imaginations decide what became of him after his seven years were up.
Way back in the '80s, I worked as a night computer operator, alone in the building with lots of down time on my hands. I found this book, and was mesmerized by the technology he was describing on those subs, had no idea of the capabilities of these things. Couldn't put it down.
Movie came out and I was initially disappointed. Upon several rewatches though have come to appreciate it for a great movie.
A spokesperson for the UC Office of the President told the Hotline that the regents have no authority to prevent UCLA’s move:
“There is no requirement for a decision from the University of California Board of Regents or the Office of the President.”
Simple as that. Why would they inform or involve the political fuck.
