As I’m sure many have pointed out, the Colts of all organizations must understand what its like to promise your fan base one thing but end up in a different city because the money was better.

Fans always amuse me with this type of stuff. They will shit on players for being “whiny millionaires” but when billionaire owners cheat their cities out of hundred of millions (to the actual detriment of tax paying fans) and collude to continue to take money out of players pockets i don’t hear a peep. I get it,…

I think the problem for Martinez is that last year cheapened power in baseball. Everyone (save for the Red Sox) crushed home runs at a record pace. No one is in desperate need for a high priced power bat (save for the Red Sox) when they can pull guys from the minors who can strike out 200 times and hit 30 homers.

you’d definitely have seen butler get far more use if they were the old england patriots

Both the Cubs and Astros tanked hard for several years, drafted well, called up the right prospects and traded others for immediate talent. Also, Brady Aiken not signing gave them the pick that became Bregman.

weren’t the Houston Astros the original team to go all out on tanking during a rebuild? let’s remember that they traded away every half decent player they have for 5 years. That bet paid off in a huge way for them, with a world series in 2018.

Exactly. Not only is it asking for consent; it’s also a good practice for better sex to see if your partner is happy.

Exactly! Sex should be a dialogue, just played out physically. If it’s not, I can’t see, frankly, how it could ever be good sex.

Maybe it’s inconvenient & “not sexy” to check in with the person you’re trying to fuck to make sure they still want to fuck you, but it’s 100% necessary.

To me, the biggest issue is marketing. The game has so many good young stars right now and the league does a piss poor job of promoting them. Would the average person know who Francisco Lindor or Carlos Correa is if they saw them walking down the street? Probably not. They’d sure as hell recognize someone like Lebron…

It’s not really about how long the games take as much as the pace of the games. If a game lasted over three hours but was played at a quick pace, people would be okay. It’s all those moments when it takes five minutes for a pitcher to pitch to just one batter because both the pitcher and hitter take too long to get…

It really fucking blows that Joe got hurt; Bayley trying to get that guy to get into her wacky-inflatable-tube-guy hugfest would’ve been amazing.

100% agree and understood on everything you said on the traffic there. LA is a living hell and that I-35 split needs to be repaired 5 years ago. Holy hell, it’s so bad.

That is not even remotely true. There was a litany of refusals, and at one point Ansari even acknowledged her clear discomfort. Observe:

I think that reinforces the point though — the conversation here should be a lot more nuanced and handled more deftly. I’m in my 30s now and I know how to say no, but pretty much throughout my 20s as I explored my sexuality I consistently ran into situations that I didn’t know how to handle. There’s a lot of pressure…

Don’t come to Austin, it sucks.

Austin is done. Y’all have ruined it. None of us can afford to live in the city we’ve created because you’ve all moved here. RIP Austin. 1839-2001

Also, the B-52s always seemed more about love and lobsters than they were about war...
