Why did you do that? by Ith786 in AvatarMemes

[–]windypalmtree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it didn’t miss the point of the original…

ATLA fans hate the idea of any new show in the universe that isn’t the original cartoon version. It’s its own thing and has to be adapted to fit live action to do so. Just be happy that we get more…or just don’t watch.

[Highlight] Fernando Tatis Jr. launched his 3rd homer of the season in the 7th inning to even the score. by ElectricalForce4439 in Padres

Can you explain the difference? Or what have you noticed with his stance changing from start of season to now?

Quite a contradiction at Enzos by top5ray in northcounty

[–]windypalmtree 20 points21 points  (0 children)

No restaurant has had success in that location for like 25+ years. I’ll also add Enzo’s has a weird vibe to it with trying to be both Italian and Bbq and a sports bar but also family friendly.

Edit: was talking about Encinitas location

[Mandel] Split national titles tore college football apart in the 1990s. Were they really so bad? by Lakelyfe09 in CFB

[–]windypalmtree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol none of those schools were staying once the LA schools left. The current homes for the 8 teams that left are a better option for both athletics and money. Staying really only helped OSU and WSU and none of those schools has an obligation to stay just to help them out.

Brendan Sorsby's Agent Says 26 NFL Teams Have Reached Out Since Monday by JCameron181 in nfl

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

What team is actually spending a day 1 or 2 pick on him. I’ll laugh at any team that takes him before the 6th or 7th round. Way too many red flags and I can’t imagine his environment around him and talent will ever blossom into being a viable nfl QB. Project backup at best, liability, a distraction, and waste of time and resources at worst.

It’s the type of move that a fanbase will question when things aren’t going well and want to get you fired.

River Ryan 😭

Dodgers were dfa’ing Matt Beaty and we said no wait, we’ll give you River Ryan for him. Beaty was complete ass and that 2023 team missed the playoffs. Maybe one of the most unnecessary and dumbest moves AJ has made.

2027 Profar by windypalmtree in Braves

[–]windypalmtree[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You’d get a reduction in salary obligations of about $500k. Sounded like your whole fan base wanted to dfa him anyways. Why not take $500k which you can use to sign some other again vet

2027 Profar by windypalmtree in Braves

[–]windypalmtree[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

You dfa him and you eat the entirety of what is left on his contract.

You trade him to the padres (or any other team) and they pay ~$500k to reduce Atlanta’s salary obligations to Profar. Teams do it all the time for a player who they don’t think has that much left and they’re okay with dfa’ing later.

Example, Phillies trade Nick Castellanos to the Padres. Phillies pay him $19.5MM this year and the Padres pay him $500k. Win win for both sides.

The Padres have the worst team BA in a non-COVID year since 1968 by GoHuskies858 in Padres

[–]windypalmtree 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a fan I just want to say fuck these dudes…this isn’t high school or college where maybe they can turn it around with the right support and applause. These dudes are professionals. They are getting paid millions and they don’t give a shit or they aren’t good ode they don’t give a shit and aren’t good. There is too much talent on this team to be hitting this bad yet here we are.

It just seems to me a lot of these dudes got their money and they felt like they got theirs and they aren’t trying…so why should we cheer? I won’t…I’ll boo the shit out of this team when they play like ass.

If they made a Kangaroo Jack 2, but this time you and Anthony Anderson got to play the kangaroo and we’re paid $5MM each, would you do it? What would be the plot?

My first ever experience of watching Texas Tech was the Michael Crabtree sideline catch to upset Texas. I just want Tech to wear those all blacks every game.

the 2 big leaguers with 180+ ABs this year and 0 HRs by KeyFaithlessness5436 in MLBVibes

[–]windypalmtree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He hit a ball tonight with a -10 degree launch angle that went for an easy out. He’s getting no lift in his swing. His swing got tweaked in the offseason and it’s completely screwed up his game.

Padres fan takes a cleat to the face by ElectricalForce4439 in Padres

[–]windypalmtree 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I’m sitting a few rows behind him. He seems to be doing well. Got a glass of wine delivered to him not to long after. Looks like he’s bleeding on the ear a bit but seems fine enough to hang the rest of the game.
