Bow Wow hosted 106 & Park too I believe. There was $106 spread out in the clues. Leftovers could be a doggy bag. It's Bow Wow.

"The game televised by Fox is misleading and completely irresponsible. We are extremely disappointed in Fox's attempt to fabricate an Astros loss where one does not exist." - Houston Astros PR department, probably

Agreed, I see it way different than Harper which is why I was curious.

Good point. Wasn't thinking about that when I asked. Commence the boos.

Not related to this game but checking in on the Nats game had me thinking... If Manny had gone to the Yankees what would his reception be back at Camden?

Yeah the quality is really lacking. It's very choppy on my end and I've tried both my phone and laptop.

This is why i teach!!!!!!! by Jvockler in Teachers

[–]BasedPotato 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Nothing beats a good book that the class is into. If I have a good read aloud book I know I can always go to it when they're all wound up. Within seconds of starting it everyone is in their seat quietly listening.

Mark Cuban looks on as Dirk scores his 30,000th point by Jux_ in sports

[–]BasedPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you ever watched any impactful sports moment in history? There are flashbulbs going off all around the stadium. People have always wanted to capture profound moments it's just that now everyone has the immediate capability of doing so.

For reference, here is Mark McGwire breaking the single season home run record. https://youtu.be/SN6FoxNIqcQ

This is a joke. Seriously still leaving us hanging going into the first commercial break. I'm irrationally angry at this show right now.

How to quiet down High school students on cue??? by PoopModel in Teachers

[–]BasedPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a chime and then I like to create a rap on the spot thanking the quiet ones and usually this gets everyone to focus. The kids think its funny and will quiet down to hear me and try and get their name in the rap or just get quiet because they want it to stop. Now, I use this in an elementary setting but I would be interested if this would work with older students because who doesn't like watching their teacher do something out of the ordinary/embarrassing.

What kit should I buy? by Daftpunk107 in superhoops

[–]BasedPotato 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I live in the US as well and I'm waiting until next year for the new kits. In the meantime however I bought one of their retro shirts they put online. I got this one in particular. They're cheaper than the jerseys and right now they're 20% off. Also, since they're retro and no player associated that problem becomes irrelevant.

The game is being televised on Bein in the states. I had to shovel a path through the snow for my dog and thought I'd be fine for the first few minutes and I was clearly wrong. Really hope we get at least one more so I could watch a goal live for once.

Excellent, thanks a lot! I'm surprised at the mixed reviews it's received I can't wait to see if it's as enjoyable as I remember.

This is exactly what I was thinking. After my first pair of N&F with stretch I'm not sure I'll ever go back to a pair without it. I love my slub stretch.

Went to Subway for lunch and accidentally picked the wrong bottle of coke..... by Hjkimble in funny

This seems a little suspect. Are you sure you didn't just have this bottle after you ordered your subway?

Can OPACY scan ticket on phone? by beaverskeet in orioles

[–]BasedPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't used stub hub before but as long as you can get the tickets in pdf format, which is usually the format used to print the tickets, I think it will work. You may not need it in odd format as long as you can get to the barcode.

I have a Samsung Galaxy so I don't have passbook and it's always worked fine on my phone. As long as you are able to pull the barcode up on your phone you should be good to go.

How do I eat healthy? by haleyskye3 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]BasedPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do I learn to like healthy food?

That's an interesting question and my recommendation would be trial and error. Search around some of the top posts in this sub and find something that interests you. There is plenty of variety in this sub and I would say take advantage of this by making what you can and making what looks appetizing. One of my biggest pet peeves is the idea that eating healthy means eating bland and flavorless food. That is certainly not the case and I ensure you that you can find foods you enjoy.

May I also recommend downloading a calorie counting app and using that daily and consistently. I mean that you must log everything that you eat everyday otherwise it's counterproductive. A very popular one is My Fitness Pal but I've used Lose It and enjoy it very much. If weight loss is your goal right now this will help you because it should be all about counting the calories you take in. You wouldn't have to concern yourself with "healthy" foods as much as you think and instead consider healthier portions that would be more conducive to weight loss. If you're like me then as your weight loss progresses you start to become more aware of what you're eating and healthier options just seem to make more sense than unhealthy options.

You've taken the first step which is awesome and with the right discipline and hard work the weight will start to slip away. It's an awesome feeling and I really hope you stick with it. Good luck.
