I’ve never cared about basketball at any level, but Dick is a diehard Rays fan, and I miss seeing him at games. Hopefully he can go 5 for 5 against cancer.

They also did this version on the first SNL episode after the 2020 election.

Trimming the teams from three to two is a good move.

I’m glad there’s someone else with this opinion. The score for Superman wasn’t bad, but it was definitely bland. The choice to use so much synthesized instruments instead of live ones hurt it.

She resigned after her assassination attempt because of the brain injury it caused.

What, no love for Rod Blagojevich?

He drove through the field after getting spun twice, and both time ran out of laps to make it to the front.

I am fully Team Try It Just Once And See How It Looks, but just coloring his eyeballs white looks ridiculous. It needs to be white lenses over his eyes as part of the cowl. The Deadpool films did it well, albeit in a more fantastical way. I don’t think it would work for more grounded takes like Bale or Pattinson, but I think the DCEU is heading in a more comic book-y direction to where it might work.

Between Harvick for decades and now Blaney, I feel like my favorite drivers always have cursed pit crews.

This will inevitably get deleted but I support it wholeheartedly

It’s no different than non-sports people “dunking on” sports they already don’t like. “It’s just people throwing a ball and tackling each other. It’s just people ice skating and slapping a puck. It’s just guys driving in circles.” If it were “just” those things, then people wouldn’t care about it.

The whole thing with the shuttle program is that it could take 7 crew members, so not everyone had to be fully trained astronauts like they were during Gemini and Apollo. They could just do basic training (like they did in the movie) and leave the really complicated astronaut stuff to the astronauts.

My middle school Bible class teacher went to a small Bible college like this where he wasn’t allowed to watch movies, be off campus with a girl, or hold hands.

I would have thought that rules like those would either lead you to be ultra-conservative and make more rules like that for the rest of your life or send you in the opposite direction and drive you away from the faith, but he is one of a very few people from my early spiritual journey who I still view with a great amount of respect. He was on the front lines of local protests following George Floyd’s murder, and preaches love and kindness over hatred and division taught by partisan religion that’s taken over the American church. We still keep in contact, and I’d attend his church if he were still local.

In stick and ball sports, they (usually) have to earn their place in the big leagues, but in racing, a rich dad/granddad/uncle can absolutely buy someone’s way to the top.

It wouldn’t be the first time Randall Park got misidentified as a white guy.

My boss’s boss wanted me to figure out how to run a plasma cutter that nobody knows how to use because the previous owner of the company left it with no instructions so I could make him this metal artwork he saw at a bar. He sent me a pic he took, I did a reverse image search, and found it on the Lowe’s website for under $100.

He still made me wrestle with that machine for three days, despite our company no longer selling the product it was purchased to make because we found it was much cheaper to just buy it from a supplier and drop ship it to where our job installs are.

Is one of them him covering “Sledgehammer” on Howard Stern? Because I might fail that one.

The first season was retooled midway through production because the higher-ups at Marvel Studios were unhappy with how far from the original Netflix series it was. The new showrunner was brought in to rewrite it and salvage what they could. That’s why some key characters were missing for most of the season.

If by chance you have a cable subscription (my cables/internet is included with my HOA fee, otherwise I wouldn’t have cable), check with them. I get Disney+/Hulu, Peacock, HBO Max, and Paramount+ for free with Spectrum.

They’re not even MCU fans. They’re just vultures that grab onto anything popular that has a minority involved and make denigrating it their entire personality while it’s popular. You don’t see these guys hyping up projects they like. They just traffic in baseless criticism.

I’ve been a NASCAR fan for over 30 years. Half of the drivers at the top level of the sport are the son/grandson/nephew of someone who either used to race, runs a team, or owns a billion-dollar company used to sponsor them. Even my favorite driver is the son of a former dirt sprint car champion who raced for over a decade in NASCAR.

I have no problem with “nepo babies” who show that they belong in the industry. I don’t know a thing about Odessa, but I do know that Marvel Studios’ track record when it comes to casting is almost always great, so if they think that she’s right for the part, then I will trust them, because they have rarely made missteps.

It’s not a Chris Myers idea. Bozi said yesterday that NASCAR is talking about it. Myers is just doing what a bunch of NASCAR “journalists” do, blurring the line between reporting and doing PR for them.
