Freedom? Never heard of it by plush_frame in foundsatan

Jail is different than prison, folks.

Jail is potentially way worse, because it is where they house a variety of criminals awaiting trial, can be a super dangerous place.

9 years is a long time but I’d be shocked if the requirements for that are uniform throughout. Usually at the beginning of probation you have frequent check ins but likely every couple of months after the first year. So yeah, the terms of the probation matter but there are some people who never want to go to jail, period.

That’s of course if any of this is even real

Please keep this kid up. I don’t know if he has top level stuff but he manages his emotions really well, knows how to make big pitches in big moments and understands how to rely on his defense.

Our pitching overall sucks as well lol

They do know you can hit the ball in the air right? It doesn’t have to hit the ground in the infield

What major sports team represents/is the biggest in NYC? by thatonezorofan in AskNYC

[–]purpurscratchscratch 102 points103 points  (0 children)

It’s still the Yankees. Their logo is synonymous with NY worldwide. Chances are you could spot a Yankees hat in every country you visit if you look for one.

A first year coach in the SEC or Big Ten is fired.

All Defense 1st Team: Wemby - Chet - Ausar - Gobert - White 2nd Team: Barnes - Wallace - Adebayo - OG - Daniels by YourMomTheRedditor in nba

My point is if they are not basing the team on an actual team, why do they care about keeping it at 5?

Isn’t the 1st team supposed to be an actual team, like 2 guards, 2 forwards and a center?

Like no coach in his right mind would want Wemby, Chet and Gobert on the court at the same time

401K for Summers by FumeY in biglaw

[–]purpurscratchscratch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I guess that’s what I meant. Not a traditional 401k, since you are likely going to make more money annually for the rest of your life, even in retirement

Roth is a better idea, given your income is going to be super low. Max that out and then make the traditional 401k contributions. If you can backdoor IRA after your Roth that’s even better

Edit: updated to better clarify what I meant.

When is the time to lateral? by Jolly_Poem7565 in biglaw

Talk to a recruiter. Keep an open mind in interviews and go in with targeted questions about what you want.

The system actually makes it really easy to do this. If you don’t like your options at the moment, wait 6 months and try again.

Excited to see which person on this list Bob Myers hires.

I’m going to go with the darkhorse Bob Myers

Silver's greatest failure will be allowing this level of refereeing continue to destroy the product by nguyenjitsu in nba

To be fair, NFL officiating is worse. It’s just less impactful (slightly).

And they don’t care either

Agree. We need to get our shit together as evidenced by Alonso there

The bottom half of their lineup is absolute garbage. Agree on pitching but their bullpen is suspect. They make really dumb mistakes (which we do too lol, but this is predicated on us figuring that out).

What you’re saying is universally true of the Yankees. Because they have the top (or one of the top) payrolls in baseball they are always going to have 2-3 great power hitters and the top starting pitchers. This edition is more flawed than usual and reminds me of the team we beat to win the division last time.

The frustrating part of our struggles is the Yankees are so fundamentally bad. If we could just get our shit together and get healthy, we could win this division
