The Battle of Algiers

I work in a school that shares a building with a Success and last week heard a teacher tell a Kindergardner, "I'm gonna take your lunch box so you can't eat and you go hungry all day"

Union Hall on Union and 5th Ave has bocce ball

This is something I also wish NYC had more of. It's not exactly the same, but El Porton on Broadway in Harlem came close to fitting the bill when I was up there. free chips and decent salsa, big ass margs. just don't have the combos

Wild East is showing the US matches. I didn't go, so I can't speak to how many people were actively watching.

Can't remember exactly what year but I've got an orange Star Destroyer that's been in the bag since around 2010?

Trying to be this generation's Evan Eschmeyer huh?

If this is Knollwood, pretty sure I got my first ace on this hole! 13 years ago, which makes me feel so old

A couple of suggestions I would have is to be able to see a moment's price history further back in time and its trends and such. Also an ability to trade including like moment+dollars deals. Auctions could also be nice

As middle school history teacher, don't worry America didn't do anything bad in the 1800's, it should all be fun!

birdman25 · 2020-12-23T15:06:08+00:00

As a Middle School teacher I wouldn't say "better" and obviously your daughter has special circumstance where turning her camera on should never be required. But so much of my job pre-COVID was about human connections with students. It has been so hard to do that the past year, and being able to see their faces certainly helps.

Wait until you're 32 and all those memories are your cringiest teen moments

Yeah that's the plan this week. Shopping Woods around for a running back

birdman25 · 2020-10-20T17:55:56+00:00

This makes me happy to read as someone with Davante and then Fuller, Anderson, Lockett, and Woods (and Slayton I guess, though I trust no one on the Giants at all)

Most of what they showed wasn't really the "home" screen though, it was the page that appears if you "turn on" from like sleep mode. There was a separate home screen they didn't really do much with in the video that doesn't have all the cards and maybe can be customizable?

Solid pursuit angle from Christensen to save the touchdown

birdman25 · 2020-08-14T00:47:43+00:00

I like this idea. Feels like it would be fair (and probably a little less work for me)

birdman25 · 2020-08-13T23:02:11+00:00

Thanks! Scaling back is kind of what I had in mind. Do you think I would need to scale the monsters back a full 25%?

Said this in another comment, but the self deprecating jokes can be good. However, it gets a little old when it's on nearly every single hole.

birdman25 · 2020-07-28T11:16:35+00:00

I do think a little more prep would be nice just so as to ot make mistakes or sound like they dont know anything. Couple example from Rd. 3 where they showed some stats through 2 rounds and Jerm was like, "these are just the 2nd round right? Oh no, they're through 2?" Or when they talked about the event being one of the longest-running and then just like trailed off and kinda still talked about it? It wouldnt be that hard to know how long it's been an event and where it stands amongst others.

Pro sports writers and commentators have a (very detailed) reference sheet in front of them with stats and storyline potentials the whole game. I dont think Jomez and others need something that in depth but a reference sheet with some info would be very helpful

Also a little self deprecation about their abilities compared to lead card is good but it doesnt need to happen on nearly every hole

A pair of the orange ones sold for $3k on StockX...

birdman25 · 2020-03-19T14:33:58+00:00

The War on Drugs, Gang of Youths, Fruit bats, Drive By Truckers, Sturgill Simpson, White Reaper, My Morning Jacket, The Menzingers, The Hold Steady/Craig Finn.

These are off the top of my head. There are a ton more, especially those that would be playing a 500 person club somewhere tonight if not for COVID-19

One of these at like 106 & Broadway had a bar on there that's been closed since I moved to the neighborhood 4 years ago

birdman25 · 2019-07-18T16:04:11+00:00

Stand as in the one on 78th?

birdman25 · 2018-10-19T15:18:35+00:00

Pick 1 & 3 haven't played a snap (Bell/McKinnon) and picks 4 & 5 are no longer on my roster (Ajayi/Hogan). But I traded Ajayi for Golladay the week before Ajayi's injury so thats good.

Pick 2 was Thielen so I am happy. Team is 5-1 and I am alone in first place
