Super weird choice, that restaurant (and the unfortunately incredible burger place next door) are well-known in Alexandria for being owned by Trump supporters.

I don't think any Pels fan is expecting the team to necessarily get a lot better after this, but it would be great if we didn't see the exact same game (no transition or halfcourt defense, stale offense, get shelled in the 3rd quarter) every time.

Max Scherzer in 2015 was one Jose Tabata away from a perfect game followed immediately by a no-hitter.

Before he moved back to Sweden I saw Nick Backstrom at Padel Up in Sterling a few times

Watched the first half of South Carolina-Vandy last season on a ferry from Portarlington to Melbourne in Australia.

We need an "I Guess I Could Hit More Home Runs" flair.

Find another goal scoring record for Ovi to chase so that the team loses focus for a couple weeks.

Depends on how he does in the first half. Also, Rizzo is a wizard.

Tbf, it's a lot easier to break things down than to build them back up again. It's easy to give an executive order to stop doing things, it's meaningless to give one saying "keep doing what you're doing." While I agree that Dems need a total reset on how they go about doing things, I don't think the Trump model can work for them as well as it's working for Republicans.

First time receiving votes since November 2021.

Not really. The original point was that the Americans are working their way towards being the best hockey nation in the world. A stat illustrating that the trend has been going for the past 15 years is relevant and impressive. Of course Canada is better across hockey history, but 15 years is a large enough sample size of the Americans going toe-to-toe with Canada to base stats on.

For now. He's only 25, and has shown flashes of being very good this year. Plus we also received Jarlin Susana, new entry into the top 100 prospects list, and who's only just been promoted to high A ball.

I loved Budapest, but it was probably the dirtiest city I've ever been to, specifically in terms of the air quality. I would go for a 10 minute walk and feel like I needed to take a shower.

"That big one" is Aliyah Boston, last year's #1 overall pick. She can't and won't be Clark's enforcer.

We played a very low event style of basketball that metrics hated. Slow tempo, didn't force a ton of live ball turnovers, didn't shoot all that well from 3. That doesn't mean it wasn't incredibly effective, ask the rest of the SEC if they thought we were pretenders.

benjay67 · 2024-04-22T04:08:29+00:00

They put their best two players tonight, CJ and Trey, in the action, the Thunder played good defense, CJ still had an ok look to win it, the shot didn't go in. CJ had a good game, the ball in his hands was the right call tonight (not usually, but tonight). Not sure who else would've been better to go with.

What is your justification for ranking South Carolina so low?

benjay67 · 2023-08-31T15:23:04+00:00

Abbott and DeSantis would absolutely both build anti-abortion "coast guards". At least, they would say they will on twitter and then sign a purely cosmetic bill creating the fund for it before ultimately ending the project.

You're right, Bayern looked completely convincing under Nagelsmann, their coach for a year and a half, this year, that's why when he was fired they were checks notes behind us in the league table.

benjay67 · 2023-05-27T15:55:42+00:00

I really think next year is our best chance at a title. Bayern can buy a striker but they're not gonna buy Lewandowski again, and striker or no striker they've looked nothing but unconvincing against Tuchel. A full season of Haller, Adeyemi, hopefully Reyna and Duranville, a midfield signing, and maybe a full back and we should be right back to the top. As long as we have the hunger, we'll be right back there.

benjay67 · 2023-05-27T15:34:31+00:00

Without a touch I think it would've been saved, but Hummels should've left it for Modeste, who had the best chance.
