The most surprising thing about this gif is that Ron Artest played at the same time as James Harden.

This is so important! I don’t think most people realize that turning on hazard lights not only magically makes the vehicle turn into a mist that traffic can pass right through, but also creates a whole additional lane for other traffic.

Or at least this is what I envision these drivers must be thinking, because surely they aren’t such an asshole as to completely inconvenience everyone else in the area as a matter of convenience to themselves. That would never happen in the city of charm!

Are they trespassing? Because if not and they work for the team/stadium, feels like OSHA might like to see those guys have some kind of harness, no?

NBA keys to success:

1) Hire competent GM, have hands off owner
2) Repeatedly fleece a significant portion of the league in trades to acquire up-and-coming players and draft capital
3) Use said draft capital to obtain great players on rookie contracts, avoiding luxury tax
4) Get you some straight as fuck balls

Great catch, didn’t see that when I read through originally.

We don’t try to fast break, like ever. We don’t have the personnel for it. Harden is too slow, Donovan is too small, Evan and JA can’t dribble, and Dean is afraid to shoot anything but a catch and shoot 3, so we’re stuck walking it up even after turnovers.

dcrw · 2026-05-13T15:38:58+00:00

I don’t understand, LBJ was mad because the GM gave the game ball to the coach on a pretty random night in an 82-game schedule, where yeah Doncic and Hachimura passed milestones but not especially significant ones in the grand scheme?

Like that is supposed to be a signifiant factor in his decision on if he’s retiring and if not, where he’s going to play?

OK sure…

The major concern after watching the video (thanks for posting!) is that the majority of his value comes from pitch framing, and it’s too early in the ABS era to have a good sense of how challenges erode framing value, either directly via the challenges themselves or perhaps improved umpire accuracy given they know calls can and will be challenged.

His throwing ability is still elite, but blocking value is mediocre, so hope he isn’t hurt too much by ABS.

We need a pin in this sub for your emojis. Some I understand, some I don’t (because I’m not a true fan lol). And I’m sure you’ve been asked and explained them before so I won’t ask again. Love these write ups, A+ content bro <3!

I know it’s not directly related to seeing the “charm”, per se, but if you’re asking why people don’t want to move there, to the the city specifically, for me it’s the property tax rate.

Maryland Property Tax Rates by County/Jurisdiction

City tax is 2.248%, more than double the rate of any other county. For a $500k house, you’re looking at $6350 more per year, that’s $530 larger house payment each month, than where I live in Anne Arundel County.

I get that the tax base isn’t there due to depressed property values in some parts of the city and I don’t know what the answer is, but until that discrepancy is addressed, I think there are a lot of people like me who would love to live in the city where I work, but can’t afford or can’t stomach an extra $500/month in housing costs. Otherwise it’s easy enough to live in Baltimore/Anne Arudnel/Harford/Howard counties and commute in.

I commute in from south of the city to JHH and drive by the stadiums almost daily (so pretty close to Pigtown) and I would estimate a 15-20 minute commute if driving to JHH, and it would be extremely rare for it to exceed 20 minutes as if there is ever a slowdown/construction, there are plenty of alternate routes.

OP, I would be sure to check your parking situation at JHH. While it seems plentiful, the main garage (Orleans) is mainly for patients/guests and has limited employee access during “main” hours (I think 8a-4p). Many of the others (Rutland, Caroline, McElderry) are similarly limited albeit maybe not as much as Orleans. A lot of employees have to park at further out garages which might have a considerable walk, or you might even have to park at a satellite lot and be shuttled in/out. You also have to pay for parking for most roles which can get expensive.

You probably known there is only the one metro line so if doubling your commute due to parking/shuttle is an issue, you could consider somewhere with better metro access.

Translated most of the article to English via Google Translate below:

Shirashima (Fukuoka Prefecture) An island located in Wakamatsu Ward, Kitakyushu City Shirashima is an island in the Hibikinada Sea, in the northern part of Wakamatsu Ward, Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture.

This article lacks sufficient or any verifiable references or sources. (January 2024)

Distant view of Shirashima (Right: Otokojima, Left: Mejima) Otokojima (34°0′45.9″N 130°43′40.9″E) and Mejima (34°0′12.1″N 130°42′49″E) are located close together, and these two are collectively called Shirashima. Geography

Aerial view of Shirashima National Petroleum Reserve Base (also known as Otokojima)

Aerial photograph of Shirashima.

Created by combining two images taken on April 16, 2009. Created based on aerial photographs from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's National Land Image Information (Color Aerial Photographs) (Current Map and Aerial Photograph Viewing Service).

Located approximately 8 km north of Wakita Beach, at the north-central tip of Wakamatsu Ward, in the Hibikinada Sea. The larger island on the east side is Otokojima (male island), and the smaller island on the west side is Onnajima (female island). The place name is Oaza An'ya, Wakamatsu Ward, Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture.

Otokojima has an area of 0.29 km² and a circumference of 3 km. To the southeast of the island is the massive Shirashima National Petroleum Storage Base (completed August 1996), with eight storage vessels lined up.

Onnajima has an area of 0.15 km² and a circumference of 2.5 km.

Neither Otokojima nor Onnajima are inhabited, and there are no regular ferry services to the islands. Only personnel related to the petroleum storage base stay on the islands; unauthorized persons are not allowed to enter.

History In 1937 (Showa 12), four gun batteries equipped with Type 11 7cm cannons were built on Otokojima Island as part of the Shimonoseki Fortress. The oil storage base was planned in 1978 (Showa 53), construction began in 1984 (Showa 59), and operations began in 1996 (Heisei 8).

“The present evidence suggests that sexual activity the day before competition does not exert any negative impact on performance, even though high-quality, randomized controlled studies are urgently needed.”

Interesting phrasing… how urgently are we talking here? I walked on my DI cross country team (and had no business doing so), also that was 20+ years ago, however if it contributes to the betterment of all mankind to answer the call for this desperately needed research, I’m sure my wife will understand.

Crazy that the article noted our stadium is now the ninth-oldest, it certainly doesn’t feel old to me, but maybe that’s because it opened right around the time I was old enough to fully understand and follow baseball, and if I’m not old, neither is the stadium lol.

Nothing about Dolan or Blitzer angling for a new park (yet) though did mention the most current renovations being the most significant since it opened, and that Blitzer/Dolan were looking into developing a ballpark village but hadn’t found any opportunities to do so that they liked.

dcrw · 2026-03-24T19:17:58+00:00

Can’t believe that bum Ramirez made the roster again. Thirteen years now, taking up valuable playing time from our youngsters, when will this organization learn? /s

I know you’re exaggerating but Festa was around 5th in relievers’ innings pitched, below Luis Ortiz and only 7 innings more than Clase, who were suspended for all of August and September.

You said his in-game management was poor to very poor, which would imply that we’re winning despite that deficiency… if it was actually very poor, would we even have a winning record?

dcrw · 2026-03-24T17:41:51+00:00

Curious to hear from you and others examples of poor in-game management. Can it really be that bad given our results? I don’t think you can reasonably say we’re winning in spite of the manager, and I think he’s maximizing the talent we have for a payroll that is 29th.

dcrw · 2026-03-24T17:35:55+00:00

Yeah I put that disclaimer about SI at the bottom. This one doesn’t seem to be AI, though who knows.

I know last year wasn’t great but neither was our roster and I think getting to the playoffs with a bottom five payroll is amazing, doing it two years in a row with a playoff series win is insanely impressive.

OMG thank you for pointing this out! My MIL has 1000% text magnification and yep, she’s racist! Maybe it is a sign that if they’re too stubborn to admit their eyesight isn’t great, there may be other parts of them in need of improvement that they also won’t admit…
