As always, park to leave, if possible.

Blossom's parking was always not great. I assume having two-lane roads as the point of entry/departure still sucks.

DSafetyGuy

Appreciate it. No rush.

A friend's son got accepted onto the United Futbol Academy Boys Gold Team (2013 U12) as a goalie. Anyone have any info on them?

Not that I can watch today but feel like we got robbed not getting Skenes v Skubal (Skubal pitching G1 and Skenes G2) It's bad enough yesterday's rainout cost them Skenes v. Flaherty (2nd in K/9, 4th in BB/9) today. Tigers have games on seven straight days after today's doubleheader, so the 27th ma...

You wonder how many coaches could have fucked him up trying to make him conform to a system or style of play rather than do all the weird freeform shit he's able to do. I think the current era prevents that from happening any more. The game has become too free to rein in someone like him and, if a ...

Or a whiter Harden (from his Houston days)? I was actually thinking about that comparison last night during the game. I don't know how to make a difference between the offensive styles their respective teams play/played. The two quickest differences that come to me, as far as differentiating betwee...

Had to change to where I first learned to love Walton.

With Ralph Lawler, longtime play-by-play man of the Clippers.

The NBA era of large, dumpy looking European dudes ruling the league is astounding and highly entertaining. (Watching Doncic is just... What am I watching? I absolutely love it.) Aside from his height and weight compared to those who are smaller in one or both of those categories, Doncic has no phy...

(Sorry to be event specific for those not watching live, but...) Fucking Hell broadcast crew. That wasn't a long look at the double technicals, like, at all. Bitch and moan about that stuff when it's an actual issue. That took about 3-4 minutes, max and it was cooling shit down in any event. Jesus....

Negro League stats are being integrated with MLB stats.

I know this one made the rounds in written form, but this way is better.

Walton made some unpleasant (to be kind) comments about unhoused people in the San Diego area the last few years. A very short summation is that, for a while, he was unable to ride his bike in Balboa Park due to homeless encampments around the park and on paved areas and also had some encounters wit...

Alternate ending (not that literal end of the movie) is in this clip (starts at about 1:32 in). There is one line in this scene that completely destroys the plausibility of its use.

I had never seen this interview before hearing about it today.

DSafetyGuy

I love this to the point it almost makes up for all the officiating-based whining. Almost.

I don't think either of my parents know that I worked a total of 70 days in 2001 (not for a lack of desire). I turned 27 that year, so maybe it was different because I was older.

Who the fuck dips a cheese-flavored chip in something else? That's psychotic behavior right there. Yes, who would make cheddar and sour cream flavored chips, aside from Lays, Ruffles, Uncle Ray's, Herr's, Utz, Wise, Our Family, Market Pantry, Uglies Kettle Chips, Old Dutch, Guy's, Nick's, Casey's, ...

I don't know if this will be the case since you are buying a Toyota at a BMW dealership, but in my (one) experience, the guy at the dealership kept trying to get me to finance through them when I was making a cash purchase (kids, but had worked multiple projects at the same time, suckas). Like, one ...

Par for the course.

Went to Golden Age last summer for a couple beers to meet up with some friends. Outdoor area with live jazz that was not too loud.

Think about how many things you learned in school to repeat on a test. Think about how many of those you gave forgotten. Think about how many more of them you would have forgotten if you had no interest in that topic, even if that interest was for something as inconsequential as "playing along ...

So, he was once again an internet tough guy.

Everyone runs to point at Gobert and Beal, but Michael Porter, Jr. is a sleeper for "worst contract in the NBA". he's 25 and shoots 40% from 3 on a high volume. there are a bunch more contracts I'd put ahead of his By statistical production, he is an average or worse third-best player on ...

Javy Baez is north of the Mendoza Lina for what must be the first time in a year. I know his bat combined with his contract is the massive complaint of the fanbase, but he was north of .200 for almost the last 90% of last year. It feels worse because he has been so weak with the stick this season.

That Akron@RU Swampup is getting bigger. The kicker has officially graduated. Called last night on his drive home, in what has turned into a little tradition. He offered me the two tickets he gets and can possibly get extras off teammates on a first-come basis. Just something to keep in back of min...

The Boy just got notice this morning that he got into Rutgers Business School off the waitlist. So glad he already accepted at Rutgers (School of Arts and Sciences), otherwise he'd have to rescind an acceptance at another school and resubmit his commit announcement on his school's Instagram page.

I'm excited for when everyone forgets about the uniforms until they are worn and the universal reaction goes to 11.

I think you're vastly underrating the role of a quarterback when it comes to pressure rate in that message -- given the additions to the receiving corps (and Williams' strengths), I'd be willing to bet it's lower in 2024 The good news is, just like Fields, Williams also has a tendency to hold onto ...

One of the former Football Outsiders writers wrote at FTN that Justin Fields faced the highest pressure rate (41.1%) in the NFL among 36 QBs with a minimum of 200 pass plays. In addition to drafting Caleb Williams, the Bears released one starting lineman, traded for one reserve offensive lineman (19...

Yeah, there's a reason the statement also did not include "soon-to-be-ex-".
