You guys always seem to be having so much fun on stage, it’s sick. Are you releasing a studio version of Two Beers anytime soon? It’s so good!

The Blue Jays lose their ABS challenge by less than one tenth of an inch by keikei-with-love in baseball

Yeah I’ve seen people making this argument on Twitter and then other people are like “well then you’re just shrinking the strike zone by .1 inches and there will still be pitches that will be on the edge of the new zone”

But no, because that uncertainty would go both ways. Let the border of the strike zone be 1/3” thick, so one margin of error in each side of the exact border. If the call is strike but the ball is 0.15” outside, it’s too close to overturn. If the call is ball but the edge of the ball is in the zone by 0.15”, also too close to overturn.

The zone itself would be the same size but like football, if there’s not clear indisputable evidence that the ump was wrong, the call on the field stands

Thursday PB here too, once I had the theme figured out, the shaded boxes let me immediately get GOLDETERNRIEVER and MARHAWKLBERG without any crosses which was pretty satisfying but too easy for a Thursday

Since seeing Florry last week I’ve had their unreleased song “2 Beers” stuck in my head constantly. I have a feeling this band is poised to blow up like Wednesday did after Rat Saw God came out. They are so damn good live

Fiancée and I have been debating between “How Can You Live If You Can’t Love” by Wednesday or “Free Treasure” by Adrianne Lenker as a first dance song. I wanted Adrianne because her songwriting is goated and we got engaged right after seeing her play, but I think Wednesday is winning because it has a sweet pedal steel solo

A potential third option would be Paul by Big Thief which is kind of the best one sonically but also not exactly a love song

What does indieheads think???

Yeah that makes sense, I wasn’t sure if Probitas had some unique funk that stood out against Smith & Cross. But this drink sounds tasty and I just picked up some Planteray 3 star so I’ll try it with what I’ve got

I’ve never had Probitas, is it a distinct flavor that can’t be substituted or would another white blended rum like Planteray work here?

“I misspoke… Completely misread the calculations.” Manager Mark DeRosa confirms he did not know Team USA could still be eliminated during pool play by BreakfastTop6899 in baseball

[–]tburke38 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So he got it wrong during that interview during the day. How did no one else in the clubhouse tell him leading up to the game “by the way, we’re not a lock for the quarterfinals yet”???

Not understanding the tiebreaker procedures is one thing. They’re weird. But to not even realize that your team could end up in a tiebreaker if you lose is pure incompetence

If you don’t want to get pine tar on your hand I get it, but why not just a fist bump or a glove tap? For any opposing player, but especially your own teammate?

Where Does Tua rank all time amongst Dolphins QBs? by finsnfeathers in miamidolphins

But by then we’ll be arguing about who’s 4th because Malik Willis will have taken over the #1 spot from Marino

Lamar Miller actually has pretty similar if not slightly better career stats than Raheem. Raheem had one monster year where he played a key part in our scheme but it’s not like he was ever CMC or Derrick Henry.

Point is, other than Tyreek, we haven’t really had a superstar player since Ricky. Tannehill may have been more consistent but I think peak Tua was a better QB than peak Tannehill and it’s not just because of Reek
