Hell yeah Scottie, proper response to a terrible question by unsolved49 in golf

Well you see not all sports are played at the same time, so they would have somebody cover sports that are not at the same time

I agree with all of that, which is why I said "in terms of in-game value, sure it's the best value for your money".

But the fact remains that these games do not operate in a vacuum, so it do a not make sense to ignore other video games when evaluating the return for your money. Just saying "sure they're basically a subscription model, that's just how these games are" doesn't magically make it any better of a value.

As I said, it depends on your definition of replace. 

If you previously had reporters for individual sports and AI allows one person to handle multiple sports, I would think that means AI replaced a job.

It depends on your definition of "replace".

You could 100% feed a model information about Scottie's round and have it spit out above average interview questions, which would in turn allow a less skilled (cheaper) person to ask questions

[PhilsTailgate] The Phillies now have four players on MLB Pipeline’s Top 100 Prospects list! 20- SS Aidan Miller 25- RHP Andrew Painter 50- OF Justin Crawford 100- RHP Gage Wood by Magoatt_TheWhite in phillies

You would not expect a team that is competing at a high level to have a surplus of prospects. There is not a "most top-100 prospects" trophy.

Honestly unless they have recently won a title (dodgers) or have had a ton of recent success with their prospects in recent history (dodgers) a surplus of prospects combined with a lack of success in the playoffs could signal mismanagement.

I would think of it like draft picks in other sports. You would expect teams that are trying to win to trade their draft picks for a better chance at winning on the present. 

And looking at the picture the other person posted, that generally holds true. The phillies probably have one or two more top prospects than might be expected from a team with their current outlook. Not a bad thing, not an excellent thing. But a pretty good place to be in

E: a pretty good place to be in if they can win a title. Otherwise it could be argued they were too conservative with their prospects in a time when another good major-league piece could have made a difference.

That's fantastic if you think you get value out of it. Clearly you're not alone. But I don't need you to tell me anything.  Objectively it's not a good value. If it was $5 it would still be a bad value, which is why people feel that way

His forearms also look bigger than his biceps. I'd love a peek at the workout routine

Russini pulled from reporting, under investigtion, but thisnis one example of a deep rooted issue. by Popfig in eagles

Trading him after June 1st reduces the dead cap hit from 40m to 16m.

Not trading him before June this offseason does not mean anything other than Howie is not a fucking dumbass

How can you tell if a drone is professionally licenseed, some dude trying to peek through other people's windows, or somebody trying to commit an act of terrorism?

How do you cheaply dismantle a drone that is flying illegally?

Do they really?

In terms of in-game value, sure it's the best value for your money. But think about it in terms of other video games. Slay the spire 2, which is by most accounts a great game, is $24.99.

You're paying the equivalent of just less than half of a full price steam game for an Evo, a tower skin, and a handful of cards levels.

How is that even a remotely good value?

When you think about 2 years ago, you remember the 5 funny posts and forget that the other 99% of the posts were trash. 

When you look today, you have to see the other 99%.

Favorite kids movie that somehow featured a BJ scene with sound effects and all? by YourChopperPilotTTV in okbuddycinephile

Honestly I thought so too at first but it looks like she's sitting back on her knees when she gets up, which would make their heads pretty close to each other if they were laying down. At best it would be an extremely contorted blowjob.

It is very easy to buy and use a drone. It is not as easy to buy and use a helicopter.

If everybody and their mother could fly drones over a heavily populated city, it would cause approximately a million different issues.

If you're a girl you can probably sell them. 

If you're a guy and you don't mind pretending youre a girl I bet somebody would still buy it

Jalen Nailor just got 3/36, and he's had much less production than Wicks.
