Has there been a guy who’s had a more quiet hall of fame career as Adrian Beltre? Seriously, everyone talks about how Chipper Jones is this sure fire first ballot guy (which I don’t disagree with) yet I feel fairly confident that Beltre won’t get in on the first year, despite having an equally productive career. The…
At first glance, I thought it was Kruk.
This is the only way to put your shit on the conveyor. All other ways are false.
In the checkout, cold things go with other cold things. Boxes go with other boxes. The stuff that can be broken and smushed needs to be bagged last. Whatever embarrassing thing I have to buy is hidden in the middle between the boxes and the milk/juice, so people don’t realize my shame.
I think the camera angle degraded the real quality of the throw. To throw that hard, that far, is very difficult.
Adequate throw, unbelievable tag.
Yeah, the tag was the best part of that play.

“Short, and to the left.”
I felt like, “no, I clearly just remember McGrady more fondly than Horry. I’m sure they were somewhat comparable.”
No...No they are not. McGrady was an all-star, all-NBA and a scoring champion. Horry’s Wikipedia has his accomplishments outside of his championships as “NBA second team all-rookie.”
If I’m McGrady, I’m…

So well said. This is a textbook example of something that is legally correct and something that is morally/ethically incorrect. Two mistakes so many people seem make: a) they treat legally valid actions as automatically morally/ethically valid, and/or b) they think that an ethical mistake (deliberate or not) by one…
And if H.B Blades chose to do that, that would be the honorable thing. I’m not saying he shouldn’t. I’m saying it’s grotesque for the organization to sue him over a sum of money it could lose a hundred times over without even noticing, and even more grotesque for you sad motherfuckers down here in the comments to stan…
Sometimes cashiers do give me the wrong amount of money back. If I notice they gave me a twenty when it should have been a ten, I’ll hand it back. I don’t need to fool people out of money that doesn’t belong to me.
They absolutely should “let it slide.” It was their mistake, which they never should have asked H.B. Blades to rectify in the first place because it harmed the organization in absolutely no meaningful way. It’s the equivalent of the corner store taking you to court because the cashier gave you ... not even an extra…
You're presuming I give a fuck about the rights of corporations, or agree that they should have any.
You’re not doing justice to those numbers. Yeah, you can say he should have given the money back. As if none of us would even consider keeping the money. But this is a team worth $1.6B. $40K represents 0.0025% of their value. Scaled down this is like somebody worth $50K taking somebody to court over $1.25. It’s a…
Jesus, man, are you a calculator or a human being? Of course it’s grotesque. This money is the equivalent of a salt-grain-sized fragment of a single penny to the organization. It’s almost literally nothing; it’s only something as an abstraction, a line in an accounting worksheet. “Whoops,” is a perfectly fine…
“H.B. Blades owes the organization some money,” and “it’s grotesque for a multibillion-dollar corporation to sue an assistant high-school football coach over what’s a ton of money to him and virtually no money at all to the corporation” can both be true at the same time, you know.
