  1. Could be hamate. Could be arthritis. He could have had it amputated. The only thing we can know for sure is the Astros medical staff is lying about it.
  2. I mean- maybe it’s only a hamate none and he will be powerless for 18 months. A girl can dream!
  3. Oh shit man. I just realized if Altuve gets up again (not guaranteed) he could likely be facing a position player pitching as he tries to avoid getting that 5th hit today. maybe not, but maybe.
  4. Salazar now has recorded a stat after not being used for like 22 days or something.
  5. Have to dodge one more bullet here my man.
  6. But what’s the remedy? You are putting a much worse team in their place. Why?
  7. Is that like forearm tightness that’s code for Tommy John?
  8. Anyone know what happened to Evoldi tonight for the rangers? Left after 2 scoreless.
  9. 90 pitches and then turn it over to Whitley to get it in the house.
  10. Sometimes we write topical shit. Did a cam smith article yesterday. https://medium.com/@breathingorangefire_71114/cam-smith-a-dude-or-that-dude-74347341b5d6
  11. He’s 3 more of those today away from Espada sitting him on the bench for being “cold”. his 463 babip in May ain’t continuing like that forever. But nice to see some Hr type distance from him. He seems like a 30 HR guy waiting to happen, hope he can get it up to 15 or 20 this year. mans right as he does that Peña with the 320 foot HR. Baseball is dumb.
  12. Ben Verlander is a gentleman and a scholar.
  13. Weird shit right there.
  14. They recognize he’s not washed yet!
  15. He’s a big time liar. I don’t believe him. It would be nice.
  16. He ain’t bouncing back quickly from that.
  17. Agreed. I try to hold back on really diving in bc managers just don’t make that much of a difference but damn if that guy isn’t hard to respect, like, appreciate. At least Dusty was a living legend and told good stories. I don’t think Espada does anything above average.
  18. Would it make you happy? Solve a problem? Can you afford to do it? Then yes.
  19. Espada is a special kind of moron. like- stop bringing your leverage guys in mid inning. 1 guy has 7th, 1 guy has 8th, 1 has the 9th. Leave it alone you drooling idiot.
  20. Altuve is the only guy in MLB that could make that play! (Nobody else in LF would have had a green light on them).
  21. That’s essentially how it is in Texas in counties that border the gulf. You get two policies. The fire one is dirt cheap and the other one is windstorm through TWIA. That’s Texas wind something something I believe and is a state type deal I believe.
  22. Tell me how- if we collected more over the time period after tax cuts than we would have if just growing at the rate the economy has grown in this century we have a revenue problem. I’m all ears bc I don’t understand the answer nor the thought process. Did chat gpt forget to carry a 1 or something? Is the underlying data wrong? Nvm. This whole page sucks (not that the discussion is bad or that I mind it) because that’s not what this thread is about.
  23. Treasury collection from 2017-2024 total- not by year. ChatGPT said: Between fiscal years 2017 and 2024, the U.S. federal government collected a total of approximately $34.3 trillion in revenue. This figure encompasses all sources of federal income, including individual and corporate income taxes, payroll taxes, excise taxes, and other receipts.Fiscal Data For detailed breakdowns by revenue source or further information, you can explore the Monthly Treasury Statement dataset.Fiscal Data+4Fiscal Data+4Fiscal Data+4 Sources 4.1-mini You said: Treasury collection in 2017 ChatGPT said: In fiscal year 2017, the U.S. federal government collected approximately $3.32 trillion in tax revenue. This total includes individual income taxes, Social Security and Medicare payroll taxes, corporate income taxes, and other receipts such as excise taxes and customs duties. Wikipedia The breakdown of major revenue sources for FY 2017 was as follows: Individual Income Taxes: $1.587 trillion (48% of total receipts) Social Security and Medicare Payroll Taxes: $1.162 trillion (35%) Corporate Income Taxes: $297 billion (9%) Other Receipts: $135.9 billion (4%) WikipediaBureau of the Fiscal Service These figures reflect the government's revenue collection during the fiscal year, which ran from October 1, 2016, to September 30, 2017. Sources 4.1-mini You said: Total collection if you start at 3.32 and compound at 2% over 8 years ChatGPT said: It seems like I can’t do more advanced data analysis right now. Please try again later. 4.1-mini You said: 3.32 compounded over 8 years at 2% yearly. ChatGPT said: To calculate 3.32 compounded annually at 2% over 8 years: Future value = 3.32 × (1 + 0.02)⁸ = 3.32 × (1.1717) ≈ 3.89 So, after 8 years, the amount would be approximately 3.89 trillion. 4.1-mini You said: Add all 8 years together. ChatGPT said: To get the total amount accumulated over all 8 years with 2% annual compounding, we sum each year’s value: Year 1: 3.32 × 1.02¹ Year 2: 3.32 × 1.02² ... Year 8: 3.32 × 1.02⁸ This is a geometric series. The formula for the sum is: S = P × [( (1 + r)^(n+1) - (1 + r) ) / r ] Where: P = 3.32 r = 0.02 n = 8 Calculating: S = 3.32 × [ (1.02⁹ - 1.02) / 0.02 ] Let me calculate that: 1.02⁹ ≈ 1.19405 So, (1.19405 - 1.02) / 0.02 = 8.7025 Then: S ≈ 3.32 × 8.7025 ≈ 28.89 trillion So, the total over 8 years would be about 28.89 trillion.
  24. The average annual U.S. real GDP growth rate from 2000 through 2024 was approximately 2.0%. This period encompassed significant economic events, including the early 2000s recession, the Great Recession of 2008–2009, the COVID-19 pandemic, and subsequent recoveries.
  25. Here is a summary of U.S. federal government total receipts from 1999 to 2008, based on data from YCharts: Year Total Receipts (USD) 2008 $2.610 trillion 2007 $2.695 trillion 2006 $2.567 trillion 2005 $2.330 trillion 2004 $2.053 trillion 2003 $1.918 trillion 2002 $1.896 trillion 2001 $2.060 trillion 2000 $2.096 trillion 1999 $1.935 trillion This data reflects the federal government's total receipts, which include various sources such as individual income taxes, corporate taxes, payroll taxes, and other revenues. YCharts If you need a visual representation or further breakdowns by revenue source, feel free to ask! Sources 4o You said: If I started at 2.06 and got 2% compounded growth annually how much would I have in 5 years. ChatGPT said: If you started with $2.06 trillion and experienced 2% compounded annual growth, after 5 years you would have approximately $2.27 trillion. 4o You said: How much would that add up to over that 5 years? ChatGPT said: Over the 5 years, the total accumulated revenue with 2% annual compounded growth would add up to approximately $10.93 trillion. 4o You said: How much did the actual results add up to over 5 years starting in 2002 ChatGPT said: The actual total federal revenue from 2002 to 2006 added up to approximately $10.76 trillion looks to me like we collected about 99% of what we would have collected without the tax cuts and 5 years in we were collecting more than would be expected otherwise. By year 6 we had collected more than we would have expected to if we didn’t touch taxes in 2001.
