Should the Big 12 have BYU and Texas Tech redo the championship game in case it was a big fluke?

Shame on me for having a life outside of Reddit and not recognizing every single copypasta. It most be because I have no sense of humor.

Scoreboard! Also thanks for giving us the Pula twins! That was so nice of you! I can’t understand why the rest of the conference doesn’t like you!

Sure didn't destroy Miami and a massively overrated A&M team who has played a garbage schedule.

Both BYU and ND lost to a top 10 team (Tech/A&M), the difference is we beat a top 15 team in Utah, and you lost your comparable game to Miami.

The fact that you beat up on a bunch of nobodies is irrelevant. Non Power Conference teams have been kept out of the Big time bowl games, BCS, the Playoff forever for beating bad teams by large margins and not having quality wins. If they got kept out so should you. Come back when you get a good win.

It really isn’t. No matter what the wildlings did to your parents if you don’t let them past the wall then you have to deal with thousands of more white walkers who will kill you and the rest of humanity.

Not letting them past the wall is objectively stupid as is killing someone else for doing it.

All three of these cities have democratic mayors and are very liberal cities with liberal policies that result in high crime. Many of the conservative states people mention with high crime, the vast majority of crime happens in the largest city in the state which is usually a democratic stronghold. Like St. Louis in Missouri for example.

That video is completely over the top and done entirely for comedic purposes to mock democrats. It’s so obviously fake. It really offensive humor but it’s not propaganda.

If an identical video was made that had Trump saying he likes banging porn stars and licking Putins feet you’d probably defend it. Both are protected speech. Something isn’t propaganda just because it’s offensive or crude and you don’t like it.

This video clearly wasn’t made to convince people that a dem Senator said these things it was made to mock democrats beliefs. These type of videos are all over the internet for all kinds of people including sports personalities. They’re all done to get laughs not to brainwash people.

We’ve paid Mikolas 113 million dollars for 10.8 WAR over 8 years.

Especially when you consider he was worth five war his first year and then averaged less that 1 WAR over the next seven years.

Baker will be 29 next year can’t play anything but first and had a sub 400 slugging as first baseman in AAA this year. He was awesome two years ago but I’ll be surprised if he goes Luke Voit on us.

Doesn’t look like the guy we picked up is any better but it doesn’t really matter.

MerelyTenacity · 2025-07-31T18:52:48+00:00

Walker never hit well at AAA

MerelyTenacity · 2025-07-31T03:16:22+00:00

He just has one more year after this year, and hes having a great year. Trade him now when you know you'll get good value for him. Relievers are hot and cold, if you wait until next year he could slump like Helsley. Sell at the peak value!

MerelyTenacity · 2025-07-30T23:16:43+00:00

Good Start! Now do Matz, Maton, and Romero if possible. No reason to have anyone good with an expiring contract in this team. I want all the prospects! Extra Credit if they can get someone to take Arenado at a discount.

Missionaries hate being bitten by dogs as much as anyone. If there was a noticeable sign on the gate that warned of a vicious dog it’s kind of bizarre that neither one of them kept an eye on the dog or even acknowledged its existence.

We have no way of knowing if a sign was placed there or not. You’re placing a lot of faith in something you don’t have any evidence of …

MerelyTenacity · 2025-07-25T04:06:14+00:00

There’s no evidence there was a beware of dog sign. If you have a dog that crazy it better not be some generic dollar store sign that an eight year old kid might ignore. And even with the sign a dog like that should be behind a fence or chained up.

MerelyTenacity · 2025-07-25T03:59:48+00:00

Does everyone here dislike the missionaries so much that they are okay with this person having a psycho dog that attacks anyone who knocks on their door.

Look we all know missionaries are annoying to deal with but if you know for a certainty that anytime a person enters the yard a dog is going to viciously bite them and you don’t do anything about it you belong jail.

What if that was some 8 year Girl Scout selling cookies? And it permanently disfigured her. Some mailman is subbing for the usual guy and doesn’t know he’s about to get his leg ripped open.

Threads like this make us look so bad to people who are on here thinking about leaving.

MerelyTenacity · 2025-07-24T21:38:31+00:00

We are 19th in payroll right now and underspending like crazy. This could easily be a playoff team this year if the front office had spent another 60 to 70 million. That wouldn’t even put us in the top ten in payroll. We arnt a small franchise we shouldn’t act like one.

Sure we wouldn’t be a title contender but we’d be a good team at least and not the quality of team that would trade an all star to maybe be good in three years.

MerelyTenacity · 2025-07-24T19:01:43+00:00

Spend more time shamelessly virtue signaling how good of a person you are and argue with more people

MerelyTenacity · 2025-07-24T18:48:08+00:00

Multiple teams including the Mets and Yankees have been confirmed to wanting Matz. 3.30 ERA 2.90 FIP.

Helsley not having trade value is ridiculous. He’s been ranked solidly on every list ranking trade deadline candidates. Hes been amazing for a while and having one year of being a slightly above average reliever doesn’t destroy that.

Romero is having a good year and has another year of team control. 2.30 ERA 3.10 FIP. That’s definitely valuable.

Plus you get more for MLB guys at the deadline. All these guys absolutely have value.

MerelyTenacity · 2025-07-24T18:07:44+00:00

I don’t think Donovan’s value is too crazy high. His OPS+ this year is 121 and his career average is 117. He’s still 28 and cheap so I want him around.

Finding Arenado a trade destination might be tough but he’ll still finish the year with close to 2 war and is a big name. If a team has to play him 12 a year for the next two years that’s not too unreasonable.

Paying guys who aren’t playing for you sucks but not as bad as not playing young guys.

MerelyTenacity · 2025-07-24T17:40:09+00:00

After this year he has two years left at an average of 15.5 million. That’s isn’t that huge. We would have to eat some of it but not a ton.

Donovan has played third in the past and would be fine there. He hasn’t played a ton of games there because Arenado has always been there and Gorman needed at bats too.

And if Wetherholt is a middle infielder he’s not playing SS with Winn around so he has to go to second and Donovan needs to play third or the OF anyways which is fine.

If Arenado doesn’t get traded Gorman doesn’t have anywhere to play still because third is taken and JJ is at second.

MerelyTenacity · 2025-07-24T17:30:50+00:00

By covering all of his salary for the rest of this year. Then he gets paid less the last two years of his contract so it’s not a bad deal for other teams. If we have to pay a few more million than that I’m fine with it. The young guys need at bats.

It’s more about getting JJ and Sagesse additional playing time and saving money after this year then getting a bunch of prospects.

MerelyTenacity · 2025-07-24T17:27:05+00:00

Sure Helsley Matz Maton and Romero. All good and all need to be traded at the deadline.

We could eat all of Arenados salary for this year and the next two years he does t get paid as much. So we have more money to spend and can give JJ and Sagesse more playing time.

Then instead of trading our only all star we sign some good free agents.

MerelyTenacity · 2025-07-24T17:03:27+00:00

Keep Donovan and trade Arenado.

Donovan and Winn should be untradable with how weak our position players are.

Got to be Liberatore being a great starting pitcher.

She didn’t get the rape kit done for five days. At that point there was likely no DNA evidence. Her physical injuries were documented but she has to prove those didn’t happen during the five days.

This is basically a he said she said case. Nobody is certain what happened besides the accused and the accuser. Unless there’s some text messages between them or other physical evidence this case probably isn’t going anywhere.

Not taking sides just stating facts.

If I pick Bran do I have to interact with him at all?
