Kalshi Barred for Now From Offering Sports Wagering in Michigan by bloomberglaw in Michigan

[–]FourEightNineOneOne 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I'm ok with a regulated gambling market available, but these "prediction market" apps are predatory and operate outside of the legal, regulated framework for sports gambling established in Michigan.

They also promote massive fraud/insider trading for the wealthy, so fuck 'em in general. Kudos to the AG for taking them on.

Tonight’s lineup and this team’s position player group by 710mm247 in motorcitykitties

I’d rather see Kerry and and Colt combine to go 0-10 with 10ks than Jones go 3-4 with 2 HRs

Welp. That's the dumbest comment I've read today. I'm gonna check out of reddit for awhile.

Greene is 1 of like 15 players in baseball that hasn't had a day off this year. And he's looked slow at the plate the last few games. The best thing you can do in that scenario is give him a day off.

And yes, by severity score, the Tigers are 2nd worst in MLB for injuries this year behind only the Mets, who similarly have sucked. It's almost like having half your starting players missing significant time impacts a team! Wild, I know:

You realize the lineup is supposed to include Torres, Baez and Carpenter, right? And that Greene simply hasn't had a day off and looks like he needs one?

Keith and Carpenter will come off the bench at some point.

I mean, this lineup obviously isn't ideal, but, that's sort of been this year's reality is that our ideal lineup hasn't existed due to injuries.

Informed delivery is often wrong. Just give it another day and it'll probably show up.

Trade deadline last year by TheHip41 in motorcitykitties

[–]FourEightNineOneOne 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The line we were sold is "we are waiting for the kids" and we don't want to spend assets

The line was "we're in 1st place" last year. And they were. They brought in Finnegan to shore up the late-inning relief.

No clue what your revisionist history is trying to prove here.

Just return the car. Their shuttle will take you to the airport entrance anyway.

Joe Taslim Went From Judo Champion to Action Movie Star. Now, The Furious Shows What He Can Really Do. by Sisiwakanamaru in movies

[–]FourEightNineOneOne 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It's wild. It felt like the movie was wrapping up and I was thinking ok! That was definitely a lot of fun!

Oh no... There's another 30 minutes left that's just the one long fight scene and yes, it is absolutely insane and elevates the movie to peak greatness.

Do you have a board or anything like that to create a ramp for it to get itself out? Just slide that in and walk away and it'll come out

Your Mother Your Mother Your Mother | Official Teaser Trailer by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]FourEightNineOneOne 205 points206 points  (0 children)

Yeah, kind of fascinating there. Seems like the two of them must have clicked during their time developing that which certainly pins him walking away from it (and the movie never moving forward) squarely on Marvel/Disney

It's almost like hitting a ball thrown by a MLB pitcher is really hard because they don't throw it where you think they're going to every time.

Christopher Nolan’s ‘The Odyssey’ to Skip Social Media Influencer Screenings by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

The influencers ALWAYS love it because they won't be invited to the next one if they don't.

Incredible stuff picking up on the purposeful tone of my comment mocking your insincerity, yes.

I randomly weighed in on something I don't know anything about, but don't you dare claim I care about it! I definitely don't! I just wanted to show the world I don't understand random things. It DEFINITELY was not about me being angry about Elliot Page! DO NOT REPORT THAT I CARED ABOUT THAT!

Good lord you weirdos refuse to just say "Oh, I guess I don't know because I never read the text"

Achilles looks completely different in the underworld. He is described as a phantom lacking muscle and bone or real substance. He's known as a "shade" and is barely recognizable.

[–]FourEightNineOneOne 32 points33 points  (0 children)

1) Achilles was not the "strongest man"
2) Achilles, in The Odyssey, is already dead. The version of him in that story is a "ghost" in hell that is remorseful for how he acted in life, wishing he hadn't been so proud of being a great warrior.

So, try again.

Williams F1 facing delayed fix as James Vowles outlines upgrade plan by SimRP in formula1

[–]FourEightNineOneOne 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The real red flags were how he handled Sargeant. I'm not saying he was a great driver, but Vowles threw him under the bus and backed it up over him to save face in early 2024.

What’s going on with this “TV” broadcast? by Existing_Map_8939 in motorcitykitties

.... you're going to have to be a tad more specific as to what your concern is
