  1. So I'll put him down for 1.2 innings.
  2. Yup. Just good old fashioned shooting-immigrants-with-rubber-bullets humor. Glad to see you can recognize Brisket's sincerity.
  3. Thank you for explanation. Didn't think about needing to pay a doctor just to write opinion to get practical results.
  4. Not involved in this case at all, but curious about implication of this. Let's assume that InkaUtexas's case is as about a slam dunk case as it gets. Are you saying that even then, the lawyer fees will be >250K? Is this something that a non--lawyer would be able to go through on their own? I am clearly not Surly 1% and fortunate to have not needed a lawyer, so I am certainly lacking in perspective. But man, what is someone supposed to do in a case like this?
  5. The shitty thing is I genuinely think suicide may be one of the better outcomes. At least that only harms Hamm but his feed is looking really fucking dark.
  6. For all of the vapers in this thread dismissing parental concerns (especially those without school-age children), be aware that pressure for legislation is going to grow.Per survey from U of Michigan, "About 25% of 12th graders in 2019 reported using nicotine-containing vaping products within 30 days of taking one of the surveys. That figure was about 21% in the 2018 edition of the same survey and 11% in 2017. Nearly 12% of 12th graders in 2019 reported using nicotine-containing e-cigarettes on a daily basis (defined as use during 20 or more days in the last 30.)" It's awesome that vaping has helped many of you transition off of cigarettes, but you aren't helping the public perception of vaping by dismissing growing use among kids.
  7. Huh? How is that ironic? Did Mort ever hire a consultant to help him get released from a contract? Do you know what irony means? SO MANY QUESTIONS!
  8. I'm partial to "Texas Stomps a Mudhole In LSU's Ass". Has a nice ring to it.
  9. Everyone should watch the video on that link, don't need to have Facebook. That is awesome.
  10. At the minimum, no bumps for RB and TE.
  11. If you don't watch any of the networks, how can you say they are the same? Who is the equivalent of Hannity or Tucker on CNN or MSNBC?
  12. So taking "certain guns" (not sure what that meand) off the street dosen't solve problem, can only make it worse. The logical inference then is that more of those guns makes things better. Can you explain just a bit what those certain guns are and how many more we need?
  13. 1. Nowhere in that tweet does it state that Garner was minding his own business. I am not sure what the hell you are responding to there. 2. Do you think that the stress of Garner's death possibly had anything to do with her heart attack? I don't know that you can assign a certain percentage but I would certainly suspect that was at least involved in her overall health. 3. I would hypothesize that Orta received extra "scrutiny" as retaliation for the video taping. Not saying he his innocent of any of his crimes, although it certainly wouldn't surprise me if he was, but I would be shocked if his treatment post-video was completely above-board.
  14. Wtf? She may be as crazy as Zach (although that's a tall bar to clear) but at equal fault? She has equal blame for her domestic abuse? I am somehow suspicious that what you've heard from OSU AD is 100% true and accurate, but even if it is, this is a horrible fucking post.
  15. So you think Trump supporters have legitimate positions (except when they don't and are really driven by personality) and that Democrats should negotiate with Republicans (like they tried to do with ACA and were rebuffed). Have you tried approaching Pelosi with your wisdom and proverbs?
  16. I had to dig a little deeper in the memory banks than I should have, but holy shit you are right. I can just see her in the Cowboys jersey watching the tv while Chris Cooper is trying to connect with her in a way normal people speak.
  17. You understand that the Bucks and Rockets are playing different opponents, with different series, right? The Bucks are much more likely to get to the Finals, which is a pre-requisite of them winning the Finals; the Rockets are less likely. If anything, given the more difficult path that the Rockets have (and the fact that their series is 2-2 vs 3-1), this implies that Houston would absolutely be favored against the Bucks.
  18. Awesome that sounds like exactly what I am hoping for, will check it out when I am at my laptop.
  19. Appreciate the post for sure. I have used that to watch a live game, but have never tried for a game that ended. Have you used for games already ended?
  20. Does anyone know of a reliable way to stream a recording of the game tomorrow? I am travelling in Toronto for work this week, and game starts at 10:30. I have an early meeting at 5:30, can't stay up to watch game live. I have YouTube TV, would normally be able to watch a recording of that but evidently does not let me stream in Canada, just U.S. Would love to watch game early tomorrow without knowing score if anybody knows of a way to do that.
  21. PilotsError what the hell is wrong with you? Pos repping Onboard for his cloak room-ish post asking about response from Omar Ilhan, then negging CO Horn when he provides that response? Be less of an ass.
  22. I imagine there is a pretty damn high correlation between dog ownership and size of living space. People in small apartments / co-living spaces are (I would assume) much more likely to own a cat than a dog, and I can also imagine that these people are likely to report less overall happiness than people with a home, especially home with yard. This is obviously not intended to be a scientific study but type / size of living arrangement seems like a pretty linked factor here.
  23. I suspect (without looking at data) that you are correct, as I noted league is getting younger. And this is not just directed to you, more Asithappens (but I am too dumb to multiquote): Yes, this is a slight criticism of AOC but more just a pet peeve of mine. If only there was as many .gifs of someone saying "Median <> Average" as there are of someone saying "Fewer".
  24. Damnit, Average <> Median. I would still assume that majority of players would not experience 70% rate, especially as league gets younger and uses more rookie contracts, but average salary is not appropriate metric to use.
