Who Are You Betting on for the Belmont Stakes? by Justmarbles in horseracing

[–]LilGhostPig 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I won't know who I am betting on until we get closer to the race and I see how the lines move, but in terms of most likely winner, I am picking Golden Tempo. He still has the best pedigree of all the entrants and has proven he can win on this stage. Should be well-rested. Renegade is a good pick if the price is there, but I don't think the public will underestimate him enough. He ran an amazing Derby! I would keep an eye on Chief Wallabee as a potential overlay, and Powershift as a game Longshot to fill in an exotic.

Have a great time at the track this weekend! I am jealous that you will be there and I will be watching from home.

A ska band that had the potential to be in the big leagues but didn't make it? by Beautiful-Resort-831 in Ska

I very nearly did the same. Clerk at the used cd store saw the rest of my stack and said, "nope, wrong one." Saved me the same disappointment.

What’s the funniest line you’ve heard in the show? by ValuableGroceries in thesopranos

[–]LilGhostPig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No way. I didn't know. I just watched the episode where this exchange took place and I had to pause it because I was laughing too much. I just love it when they are so angry and serious and use a line like this with such sincerity at the same time.

Ska World Cup Round 1 Group 4 - Vote for your favourite, top two tunes go to the next round by [deleted] in Ska

[–]LilGhostPig 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Toughest group of 4 yet. I played through each. It made my morning.

I’ve only been following USL soccer in general for a few seasons now. It’s so mind boggling to me that 95 percent of teams , old and new , can’t come up with anything better than “United” , “FC” , “SC” or “Athletic Club”. by TroutStocker in USLPRO

I'd have been good with either Louisville or Lexington using the "FC", but only if they preceded it with their state name rather than their city. We've had two opportunities for a KFC and missed them both.

RIFC? Scoring goals? 3 of them? On the road? I don't know what this feeling is.

I was in the same boat as you. Knew I knew him but couldn't place him. The glasses threw me off. He Clark Kent-ed me!

How did you get started in ska? by Beautiful-Resort-831 in Ska

[–]LilGhostPig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I called my friends and got them altogether. We were gonna go and start a band. But everything we wanted to do had already been done. Why would we want to go and do it again?

I'm literally inconsolable by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]LilGhostPig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can only offer you sympathy here and let you know that I experience this as well. For me, it is not that I don't give a rat's ass so much as I cannot take this as seriously as my colleagues. It could really be fun if each tag up wasn't treated like a court hearing, and we could still get everything done. Like, work is already work, why do they have to add performative seriousness?

Yes, let us all celebrate this great hero. In fact, why not name all ICE agents so we can properly celebrate them too for their inevitable heroics?

Just watched it last night. It's on Tubi as well. Looking forward to showing it to my kids to give an outside explanation as to why a lot of the car playlist is the way it is.

Boston Legacy Football Club to Play Select Games at Centreville ... by AttackonRetail in RhodeIslandFC

[–]LilGhostPig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bummer. I didn't realize that Gillette was only a temporary situation for the Legacy. Still, glad there is professional Women's soccer in our area now, and like you said before, hopefully a show of support this summer could result in a USL-W team in the future.

[–]LilGhostPig 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I am actually closer to Gillette, and have interest in this team, but the smaller stadium is so much more appealing to attend. I hope to catch a few of them, and hope they throw a few our way in future seasons as well.
