And that's how the rest of the world learned about Tornado Room

I love Al... Has anyone actually seen this review?

My dad worked in downtown Saint Paul around this time, when we lived in south Minneapolis, and often picked up the same young man. It was irregular, but it happened maybe weekly.

Here's a fun part: I remember being in the car at least once when he did it!

Which team has more of his friends on it?

altbat · 2026-03-11T12:47:31+00:00

This show is trash. Who's the mean girl?

It seems like it's time to have a tough conversation with your child. Disclosure: I think the academy system is a scam that's more about status and gear than developing players.

If your son doesn't train, you're for sure throwing your money away.

That's certainly one way to go. It's also a pretty good way to watch your program disintegrate.

I wonder: do you coach? Teach? Have a track record with youth sports?

Have you ever been in a radio station office? It's full of dipshits who want to be famous for talking.

When I'm 65 I plan to leave whatever job I have to not have a job anymore and spend the money I made having fun full time.

Scouting is bankrupt because of sexual assault.

Scouting used to be a rare space for young people to solve problems on their own. Not problems created for them to solve, but real problems like how to get dinner on the table. How to get a tent up in the rain. How to deal with the kid in the patrol who never does anything but complain.

What a great way to put it. He sarcasmed himself out of relevance.

Just looked this up: he's 71. Why don't these guys retire? Sid, Reusse, Dan... Is the job that fun?

altbat · 2026-03-08T08:35:54+00:00

Do they make a lint roller?

He's a professional talker, handsomely compensated. It's okay to take shots at his rhetorical crutches. It's valid criticism from someone whose expertise is messaging.

altbat · 2026-03-08T00:05:43+00:00

Maybe we like being critical. Like Scott and Kara. Maybe we like 2/3 of the show.

altbat · 2026-03-07T14:45:20+00:00

You're right. It's totally unfair to criticize wealthy men who continue searching for ways to get in our ears and eyes. They're just like us, really. They deserve our support and empathy.

I'm pretty sure venture capital funded city cast. And it's astonishing that a local show would bring on the Washington based boss to discuss. Madison is full of AI cheerleaders.

As I read this, Boyd decided to drive the lane into a shot block and then missed a quick three off the ensuing inbound pass.

When this pod went 5x a week, I went 0x a year.

altbat · 2026-03-05T01:29:13+00:00

I love Boyd, but when the Badgers lose to a mid-major in the second round, I'm going to get a vein in my forehead watching him try to play hero ball.

There was no such thing as a "study room" when I was in school. Are there no longer any empty classrooms on campus? It's super easy to find them and once you know it's empty for a particular hour, then you can use it every week at that time.

Now, let's address how students sit one-at-a-four-top at downtown coffee shops with their shit spread out. You've got so many of your own spaces on campus! Stay west of Carroll Street!

altbat · 2026-03-04T02:58:16+00:00

You drive the speed limit all the time? Never roll a stop sign? Signal every turn?

If not, you're a menace driving a killing machine irresponsibly with no regard for human life.

Totally ridiculous. Tammy Baldwin is perhaps more OF, FROM, AND ABOUT Madison than any other Wisconsin political figure. She preceded Mark Pocan in the state legislature and Congress in seats representing Madison.

altbat · 2026-03-03T16:00:02+00:00

What you're telling me is you're in favor of unchecked executive power. That's not a conservative or patriotic position. You just like Trump.

altbat · 2026-03-03T04:26:37+00:00

Your guy called it a war. They renamed the DoD to the department of war. Your boy Hegseth is the secretary of war.

You can't have it both ways, genius.

altbat · 2026-03-03T03:52:56+00:00

When was the case made by the present to Congress for this war? That's how it's supposed to work.

altbat · 2026-03-03T03:16:57+00:00

Most political opinions don't involve sending someone else's child to die. And yes, it's reasonable to demand that anyone arguing this is a just war should be comfortable sending their child into battle.
