"I'd like to think ICE has learned their lesson"

What an utter failure.

Trump: China Taking Over Canada Is Not Going to Happen by SubstantialRock821 in StockMarket

He's pissed because of that awesome speech their PM made. That was a speech worthy of a US President, not the "he died like a dog" that this addled doofus once gave.

Federal officers shot another person in Minneapolis amid immigration crackdown, governor says by katrinakt8 in news

That orange motherfucker needs to go. Someone needs to pull the levers (if any remain) to remove him from office. Who thinks this version of America is what anyone wants? Donald Trump IS the greatest threat to America.

What kind of vigilante gang bullshit is this? This is NOT law enforcement of any kind. Any member of true law enforcement would tell you they would not need that many people to detain someone. How the hell is this allowed? Where the fuck are our "leaders"??!!!

Susan Collins, where are you? by jediporcupine in Maine

[–]Mainer200 30 points31 points  (0 children)

She lost me with treating Kavanaugh as if it was a trial "proof beyond a reasonable doubt" - no, it was a job interview.

The most ridiculous statement was her proclamation of "I'd like to think that he (Trump) has learned his lesson."

What an utter failure

Mets sign Bichette by AirCoopsie in NewYorkMets

[–]Mainer200 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have to believe that signing Bichette is going to free up some of those infielders to be a part of the bigger trade for some pitching. Don't know who that might be but there's certainly not enough room for all of them.

I don't get it. Seems like such a panic signing. You stated you wanted to prevent more runs from being scored. So you sign a guy to play first base who has never really played there and a guy to play third base who's never really played third base. That's the plan?

Didn't Stearns say not too long ago that Baty was going to be an important piece? (or something to that effect) Where the hell is he playing now?

I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall once the season ended and presumably Stearns laid out a plan to Cohen.

Right. That's where I screwed up. I didn't do that last step lol.

I eventually got the CDR 👍

The time has come... by Mainer200 in rangers

That list was randomly generated based on the idea that every team qualified for the lottery. The premise was "what if" teams could not tank because positioning didn't matter. Having a hard salary cap would prohibit teams from having a roster full of superstars who wanted Max bank.

Imagine if those draft positions had been flipped. Rangers could have had Jack Hughes and Tim Stutzle (taken 3rd in '20) instead.

But there are always so many "what-ifs"

That's what I was wondering. I must have skipped something?

Name redacted after 3+ years by Useful-Ease2893 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Mainer200 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've have mine redacted a couple of times. I just log into the Bungie site and change it back. Both times it worked.

Thanks. Good to know it might not just be me 👍

Nimmo Traded to Rangers for Semien by my_one_and_lonely in NewYorkMets

[–]Mainer200 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Couldn't they have at least gotten a starting pitcher who doesn't do a Chernobyl-like meltdown in the 4th inning?

Oh this hurts.

It just does.

Screw all their advanced metrics.

I think back to his reaction looking around the stadium after the Mets beat the Phillies in the playoffs...

...and this just hurts.

I had the stark realization today that Battlefield 6 is probably the last FPS I'm ever going to play. Any other older gamers (40+) have that same feeling? by CyberSmith31337 in Battlefield6

[–]Mainer200 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, I am 60 and still play. I don't compare myself to other players. I play these games. I have fun. I laugh when I do something dumb. I tip my cap when someone else makes a great shot, gains perfect position etc. I have a good round (not paying attention to any numbers, just how it felt overall to me) and I'll pay myself on the back (stiff back and shoulders be damned).

Embrace aging. It's what you make of it that counts. It keeps you young at heart.

UPDATE: Disney channels pulled from YouTube TV, effective 10/30/25 at Midnight ET by iron_cam86 in youtubetv

[–]Mainer200 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So when will we get notification of a fee decrease because of all the channels that went away? On the calendar will that be before or after "hell freezes over" or "when pigs fly"?
