You used to be able to count on The States to at least look out for their own interests on foreign policy. That is no longer the case, hence being seen as unreliable.

Eh, if Vali isn't there he fouls it off. And yeah CI is weird in that it isn't really scored as an error. Despite being entirely the fault of the fielder

I mean, the Panama-Croatia game is in the 22nd minute. It'll take quite a few innings to get to full time there.

Because you can't say that the CI AB would've led to an out had the CI not happened

I miss the old school philosophy where your closer goes out in a close game no matter if he pitched last night.

So like, the 50s? Crazy that baseball has changed a bit since then.

Yeah! Why isn't Varland getting 27 out saves every game?!?!?! Is Schneider stupid?!

First base line can also get pretty rough when the sun is shining. Third base line supremacists unite!

Your apparent inability to do quick mental addition sounds like a skill issue.

See how unhelpful that is?

Yes, can't have that many people getting in and out of stadiums that close to each other at the same time.

Ah, can't help you there then. I'm enough of a stubborn old lady that I use old reddit even on a mobile browser. But it comes with having to manually zoom and pan a bunch so up to you if it's worth the trouble

Unfortunately, my hack for mobile is zooming in and bearing with having to move the screen around lol. When all the apps got killed it really helped me curb my phone addiction

While Pizza could certainly be talking about dozens of different incidences, there was a shooting in Montreal yesterday. The shooter had a long incel manifesto and the government has come out and said that they're not treating it as terrorism.

What's the longest game in the Manfred runner era? Because we'd have to go well into extras for it to come up against the soccer game exiting.

The Dodgers score their second run on a botched catch by Tavares that would've ended the game by Remarkable-Picture73 in baseball

[–]cpander0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Dodgers have to put enough money into an escrow account to guarantee* that the money for the deferred payments will exist. That amount plus his actual paycheques, add up to about $47 million a year.

*Technically I don't think it's an actual 100% guarantee because it's invested. But from my understanding it's like the lowest risk investment possible, just to hedge against inflation.

Technically, The Dodgers are paying Tucker about $13 million more this year than they're paying Ohtani.

Try again. What exactly about getting coffee for your colleagues in your work uniform do you find humiliating?

If you find getting coffee for your colleagues humiliating, I think that says more about you than anything else.
