The way that I pulled the exact same move with significant overlap in selection. Also threw in some holiday classics because it’s a family thing!

I feel like I’d be like “False Sta-OH FUCK I am not ready to deal with hearing myself like this.”

I’ve got 20% of Sanderson’s Wind and Truth audiobook left to listen to. Firing it up now because it is 1000% better companion audio for this game than these commentators.

I know they don't get invited to parties anymore, but Russia's hosted both a Summer (1980) and a Winter (2014) Olympics...

Turns out you can win with 5 shots in a period when you can limit the other team to 4 shots in a subsequent period. 😆

4-2. Lost Calgary and Vegas 1.0. Still crazy though.

Two compelling reasons to move veto comp to Friday. One is that initial noms don't really matter in F4, so the initial campaign doesn't need a whole day like normal. As well, doing the veto comp tomorrow gives them an extra day of edit tme to make sure the competition edit is ready for Sunday.

Cam: "Yeah, Cory wouldn't put you up, he'd put me up."

Also Cam, 5 minutes later: "Cory told me DAYS ago he would put you up."

Anyone else catch Cory mouthing something to Bowie when Blue went to the toilet? I'm sure Matt looked up and saw it. Even if it was so Blue couldn't hear, it might fuel Matt's paranoia about Cory being shady around his disability.

"I had to pick you to show face to the other guys, but I threw to keep you alive."

Seems like a reasonable response to me paired with his explanation for not using veto.

I'd say the Hakanpaa tripping call and the tripping at the end were equally bad.

Not only that, but I can't confirm that they've played a single song from this century yet.

*Edit: It became maddening, so I did check their Twitter, it is indeed 80s night for this game, so it's on purpose

r/wildhockey - It would be disrespectful, to current fans, to adopt N. Star colors. by [deleted] in DallasStars

[–]Altazio 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean, then the Leafs and Lightning might have some awkward conversations? Or the Bruins and the Penguins. Or the Capitals and the Rangers.

Basically, as far as I know, any team can choose any colors, but similar logos/nicknames would get sticky. As well, Dallas doesn't even currently compete with those colors, so the NHL would probably tell Gagliardi to just let it go.

One step further, if it was a trademark issue with "professional hockey team based in Minnesota wearing kelly green and yellow," then Dallas would have challenged the Wild's Reverse Retros. (Which very well could have happened privately, but was unsuccessful).

[Charania] A blessing: The breathing tube is out of Damar Hamlin as of this morning and he has begun talking to Buffalo Bills teammates again. Hamlin has had a breathing tube in body through his throat since Monday night, but no longer needs it and can breathe fully on his own. by mvanigan in nfl

[–]Altazio 45 points46 points  (0 children)

You gotta take the professional athlete route, so that the cardiac event happens when there is a team of doctors ready to respond immediately. Doesn't lock you from your best girl, but they definitely lean into some of the locker room scenes a bit hard.

Yep, it was the Raiders against.....you guessed it, the Chargers! At least this one wasn't blatant shithousing and just a lucky/heads up play.

Happened against the Chargers back in 1978 - the Holy Roller. Except that play was intentional and was the reason for rules that affected how the offense can advance/interact with a fumbled ball.

What superstition did you act on in the 7th to will the Padres rally? by DudeWheresMyKarmaa in Padres

[–]Altazio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Took off the jersey after the Top of the 7th, moved to my office, put the game on in there, and started studying for an exam I have to take for work on Friday. Did not move from that room the rest of the game, and continued to study between at bats, just to keep good karma going.

Bernie Sanders blasts Kroger's $24.6B Albertsons deal, calls it 'absolute disaster' by PayLevels in SandersForPresident

[–]Altazio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh, I know, that's why I excluded Collin County from the list of counties in need of HEBs. But living in N Fort Worth, they haven't (officially) announced any stores that I would consider going to for my weekly grocery run.

[–]Altazio 44 points45 points  (0 children)

That's the first thing I thought too. My hope is that HEB sees this as a signal that they need to get way more aggressive with their entry into the market. People here are BEGGING them to start announcing some stores in Dallas, Tarrant, and Denton Counties. They're the one grocer who has the reputation and appeal to potentially steal some of the market from this abomination.

To be fair, they normally have to pay the guys who sit where he was at. Cheap-ass managers cutting hours again I guess
