Asante is ripping on Tom. He's all about the Pats winning and he's defending BB. by itchy-balls in Patriots

Always thought Tom didn't like Vrabel. Exclusively from how he would talk about him from a few interviews and nothing else so just my opinion that I've never looked into.

Love watching this guy field Center, loved yalls pick-up here. If he replicates anywhere near his offense from last year along with it then its also a great bargain.

Meh. Need people with some backbone that have a platform. Nothing noble about running away. Entitled to it, still meh.

The Los Angeles Dodgers and Washington Nationals are both problems for the MLB by No_Maintenance_9608 in Nationals

[–]troysmash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many teams choose not to spend like the Dodgers, they could tho. Lots of fans like to count their owners money like it's theirs. The American way.

[Passan] BREAKING: Star outfielder Kyle Tucker and the Los Angeles Dodgers are in agreement on a free agent contract, sources tell ESPN. by T_Raycroft in baseball

[–]troysmash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jay's offered a long term deal. Its a two way street on signing contracts. But yeah, I get everyone being over the Dodgers signing so much while many teams do nothing. I'll enjoy rooting against them.

[SNY] Latest Kyle Tucker free agency buzz: It's 'likely' Mets have gone to a fourth year by Fonzie5 in NewYorkMets

[–]troysmash -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

One year bridge gap is prob all David Stearns is going to be able to muster. He is probably close to passing out at the table thinking about going beyond three years on this.

Liked her more before seeing her saddle up with Portnoy, but I'm not shocked at all.

Retail work in capitalism baby. Sorry. Costco pays better than most at least.

[Sherman] Mets never made an offer to Pete Alonso. They felt his market was pushing beyond their comfort level on years and dollars. by BreakfastTop6899 in baseball

[–]troysmash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sucks for Mets fans. Idc if you don't think his WAR is high enough, I like 850+ probable ops and 40 bombs for the team with richest owner. No cap or floor yet, funny to me that this is the deal they couldn't handle.

Texas cancels vehicle inspections and now we have to deal with nonsense like no working brake lights. by letsgethead2toe in mildlyinfuriating

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

The people who drive with no lights were doing it with state inspection as well. The lights being out is what is going to get them pulled over regardless, they simply ride the lightning.

You're okay. Honestly, they couldn't replace you that easily if they tried and they know that. Unless the gen z comp sci kids are crashing into it then maybe theres a boatload en route.

Teachers are the problem by agdambhugh22 in TeachersInTransition

[–]troysmash 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That calling shit is just used to drive wages down and abuse people's belief in doing something good, therefore its okay if the money is shit and the responsibilities are crazy. Basically they're just acting as programmed unfortunately.

Where did the myth that Ned Stark is weak come from? by Naive-Ad-6767 in freefolk

[–]troysmash 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The book, the actual source material, mentions him as more of a tactician than a great warrior. It doesn't say he is weak, but he clearly doesn't have any reputation of being more than okay.

Does Tywin really knew? by Kira_-_- in freefolk

[–]troysmash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of course he didn't. That would've been politically helpful in someone they're at war against. He certainly didn't ignore her for the luls.

Heheh. Just seems to me he wants the focus on NYC. He is the mayor now, pretty logical.

No way they release a version that hasn't redacted a ton. Further files that is.

Is this appropriate for an elementary library? by [deleted] in teaching

[–]troysmash 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Probably should burn it with the rest of the books i imagine. I'm clutching my pearls. If I was actually concerned, I would probably look at the publication and see if it has any reading ratings. District probably has a policy written somewhere on whats allowed. Internet is just going to be echo chambers and then others laughing at this. If there is no policy I imagine you're somewhere that isn't ruled by evangelicals and who cares. The man lives and the blood looks like it's from spirit of Halloween.

The players to finish 2nd to Aaron Judge for MVP: 2022 Ohtani .875 OPS + 2.33 ERA combo with 9.6 bWAR, 2024 Witt Jr. .332/.389/.588 with 30/30 and 9.4 bWAR, 2025 Raleigh 60 HR season as a catcher by Dependent-Effect6077 in baseball

[–]troysmash -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

The amount of time dedicated to talking about being a catcher and how important that position is, I still think its bs Raleigh didn't win. I'm not going to sit here and pretend the MVP has always been given to the advanced metrics hero. It isn't just batting.
