I can't remember if I met him as a kid or not, but I was around the TV station a fair bit (I basically grew up around mass media in various forms).

The best story my family as a whole has about...

Re: MoFo Fantasy Baseball - 2024 Season

Yeah, bummer. I nabbed him in our auction league yesterday and was stoked about the value. Ah well, hopefully just a couple of weeks or something.

Yeah, you can not watch Dune so you can better spend that time doing other things, like complaining about Dune.

If you scan the thread you can get a pretty good idea of how it went. More of the same: people confusing opinions for arguments and repetition of opinions for explanations.

Re: MoFo Fantasy Baseball - 2024 Season

I would 100% support an increase in roster/bench size, but that's generally a benefit to the people who pay the most attention and I try to be sensitive to people who want to be competitive without...

3 Body Problem (Netflix)

Re: 3 Body Problem (Netflix)

I read the books over late 2022/early 2023, and I'm not surprised, if they even sort of do them justice, they've gotta pack a lot of very heady concepts in to a relatively short runtime. So this is...

I found a bunch of sources with just a quick, cursory Googling.

I'm cutting back on cuts. ;)

But yeah, quick flurry post-draft once I get to actually sit down and look at what's left and what I had to snag in the moment, per usual. After that it's just...

Yup, lived in Pittsburgh my whole life, albeit all over the area. I like it, it's a nice place to live. Winters are cold but tolerable. We also have a lot of overcast, rainy days. But on the flip...

I'd say mostly good. We're the second-oldest state in the nation behind Florida, which is part of it. But they also fly athletes and the like to our institutions here sometimes, so it's as much...

Re: Broke my wrist!!!

Great news, partially because it'll (mostly, probably) only get easier from those first few sessions, barring them adding new stuff. If it wasn't too bad that probably bodes well for the rest of it.

I wish I had more time to expound but I'm stupid busy right now, so I'll just say I really like Blue Ruin and Brick both. What a cool pairing.

Re: MoFo Fantasy Baseball - 2024 Season

Dang, unusual number of high-profile injuries during Spring Training this year. Judge a little iffy, too, though that's less surprising.

Re: Broke my wrist!!!

In all seriousness, yes, I think I wear shoes out quicker than your average person/asymmetrically, which probably exacerbates the issue a little.

Nah. I just assumed there'd be a longer life cycle available on a per-dollar basis than the cheap ones I was buying. IE: maybe a $40 pair lasts me four months but if I spring for $80 it lasts me a...

Re: MoFo Fantasy Baseball - 2024 Season

I think you guys need to be mediocre (even now you don't suck!) for a couple more decades before you pay down all the margin on the good years, fan-compassion-wise.
