Im sorry Gabe but all value is subjective. Meaning there is no objective standard of what something is worth. Machado and Harper are not “worth” any particular salary. Yes, in the past, players similar to them (or even worse than them) got big ling term deals. That’s is no guarantee of future deals and not proof that…

I think you might be overselling a 2-point win over the Browns.

Counter-counterpoint: Peanut butter blossoms are garbage cookies.

Hersheys is garbage chocolate and anyone who uses it in baked goods deserves broken tips.

I dunno, I say give it a chance.

Definitely a Long Island thing, too.

When my grandson comes home from school, I usually greet him with, “Hey, buddy. How you doing? Did you learn anything interesting today?” But he’s 5 and so everything at school is still interesting to him, and he’s glad somebody wants to know. I know it’ll pass but I’m enjoying it while it lasts.

He was clearly racist. That is bad, clearly.

Really had a hard time with that final planet/base. The Resistance is fleeing to the only planet in range and somehow feels that they will be safe and/or hidden there? So the New Order can’t just park their capital ships above the planet and either nuke it from orbit or interdict the planet?

Those were all Gungans and in the extended Blue Ray version they’re all gonna have voices and throughout the whole fight they’re gonna be saying shit like “Oopsie me have a stabby” really loudly

Yup, I expected Poe to throw a fit when they finally told him the plan but he was just like “Aww shit, good idea” rather than “why the fuck you not tell me that before? I sent Finn and Rose on a crazy dangerous mission cuz I thought we were fucked!”

Exactly, but ask career military folks about it. They wouldn’t bat an eye. Still, it very well fits the underpinned theme of everyone failing in some way despite the good intentions behind their actions.

And why the hell would you send *ALL YOUR BOMBERS* on a physics breaking but also stupid bombing run in which they are in domino-formation, close enough that a should-have-been-forseeable design flaw leads to all of them exploding? WTF?

Like, why didn’t the fleet split up when they realized that they were being tracked instead of marching steadfastly to annihilation? There was so much stupid in the command decisions on all sides in this movie.

I still wonder why they didn’t all pile into shuttles and go to Canto Bite, since that seems like a thing that was evidently possible? Leave some Droids to work the ship and jump to light speed and jump through a star, see if you can get the first order to follow you. After all...if the first order “has them on a…

One thing about your comparison to the Hoth evacuation and the Capital ship one. One was in full view of the Empire and needed coordination with the escort ships, the ion cannon, and shield operators. This is just get on the ship and sit there while we sneak out.

I do agree it was still a pretty weak decision overall,…

Eh, it was a two-person backfire.
