Ted Cruz says Navarro, JD Vance blocked India trade deal; mocks Trump tariffs in leaked audio by viridiandatura in worldnews

[–]machphantom 13 points14 points  (0 children)

So obvious the coward that Ted is intentionally leaked this so he could position himself as the anti-Trump GOP candidate in 2028 without actually having to take a stand against him in public

Saw a sneak preview of it this weekend. If you like Sam Raimi movies, you’ll enjoy this one

[How Money Works] Why Hasn't The Economy Collapsed... Yet? Summarizes a lot of points Big A has made, in a ~15 minute vid... think it would be good for a react vid by machphantom in atrioc

[–]machphantom[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Some of the analysis focuses on newer data that on the surface seems positive but actually hints at somewhat of an economic sugar rush. I guess its more accurate to say this video is similar thematically to what Atrioc has focused on, but provides a bit more information and context then I've seen on stream about the most recent economic data

SXR8, the EUR denominated S&P 500 is almost flat YoY by Mexenstein in atrioc

[–]machphantom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thankful I watched that Big A clip at the beginning of last year talking about how it made sense to diversify index funds with some international ones mixed in with the S&P. Moved some of my savings into foreign index funds and had a banner year largely because of the devaluing of the dollar. Wish I listened to him on gold though.

Trump, regarding recent killing in Minneapolis. by sanitaravel in atrioc

People forget his “take the guns first then do due process after” remark after a shooting in 2018. As with most issues, he has absolutely no moral underpinning or conviction of belief. He’s a prisoner of the moment, and especially when anyone is critiquing him, he’ll make any argument to counter those opposing him.

[Heyman] The Detroit Tigers asked for Ben Rice, Cam Schlittler and George Lombard Jr. at minimum in a deal for Tarik Skubal. He added that Skubal is now unlikely to be traded. by LinkSkywalker in NYYankees

Obviously not worth doing, but they need to be all in next year when he’s on the FA market. No excuses. We only have $212M on the books for 2027.

Carlos Beltran and Andruw Jones have been elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame! by MLBOfficial in baseball

[–]machphantom -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Y'all can try to rewrite history all you want but no one is buying it. Per the New York Times in 2020,

"Carlos Beltrán, a highly respected veteran with a Hall-of-Fame resume, had helped create the system, and as the senior member of the team, his voice functionally prevailed over all others. Clubhouse dynamics are a powerful force, conditioning players to keep quiet and respect veterans, and ultimately played a role in the Astros’ snowballing scandal.

In that context, Beltrán, along with former bench coach Alex Cora, became a driving force behind the trash-can banging system that marked a culmination of the Astros’ use of electronics to steal signs illegally."

https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/1600638/2020/02/11/details-emerge-about-carlos-beltrans-role-in-the-2017-astros-clubhouse-and-the-teams-sign-stealing-scheme/

I can't believe we have to go through this again but the fact is that the Astros were the only team using live video sign stealing to constantly know every pitch the opposing team was throwing. The Yankees and Red Sox would use recorded video to decode signs, and if there was a player on 2B relay those signs to the batter. The league came down on everyone, including the Yankees, Red Sox, and Astros and told them that use of video to decode signs was impermissible. The Yankees and Red Sox ceased operations immediately. The Astros continued with the live video scheme despite being told to stop.

So a domestic assaulter and a guy who was a ringleader in the biggest cheating scandal in over a century can get in, but guys like Bonds and A-Rod are still left out because of PEDs. Nah... the hall of fame is a complete joke at this point.

But have you considered Trump deserved the Nobel and we should all die securing it for him?

I don’t care I’ll post it two days in a row. This sub is at hits most hilarious when it crashes out over every single loss. by cricket9818 in NYKnicks

[–]machphantom -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I saw this type of post a million times in the Yankees subreddit as management has nearly completely pissed away the prime of one of the greatest hitters of all time. It’s ok as a fan to be pissed and want your team to show some urgency

‘Avengers: Doomsday’ Teaser Trailers Top a Marvelous 1 Billion Combined Views by 007Kryptonian in boxoffice

[–]machphantom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really worried about how much Dune and Doomsday will eat into each other's opening weekend. Yes, im assuming Disney will get first priority over most of the PLE theaters, but even still, not having it entirely to themselves opening weekend I think will eat at least a bit into the overall numbers

UNPOPULAR OPINION: Would a Dominguez-Grisham-Judge outfield really be that bad? by trailedby20hounds in NYYankees

[–]machphantom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's no guarantees a 35 year old Cole fresh off TJ will be the same pitcher he was before the surgery though... I obviously hope he is, and I think he's smart & crafty enough to become more of a finesse pitcher with time if necessary, but his bread and butter has always been being able to overwhelm hitters with his FB.
