My Twins won 100 games and a division title AND ended the season on top of the Yankees with the single team home-run record. They still don’t get any national coverage, and none of their players are anywhere close to being household names in the rest of the country. The last article on this site about the Twins was…

I love how baseball writers and fans forget how much random variation matters in a baseball game, and how a short series can turn on one of random outcome in ways the regular season doesn’t.

Are the Astros better than both of these teams? Absolutely. Are they more likely than not to win? Also correct. Are they are a…

Yeah, I’ve seen enough 105+ win teams lose playoff series over the years to not put anyone as a lock to win a series in baseball.

As an Astros fan, I hope Ray is right. But I feel like the baseball playoffs are a different animal. The sample size is large enough that a significantly better team should win, but short enough for funky things to happen. And I guess I just don’t think any team is significantly better than any other. (Most of the…

Disagree that the A’s are chum. Baseball is funny. They could beat Houston in a microscopic five game sample.

Nothing you said indicates there is any harm in exploring and pushing to implement renewable energy.

This whole issue: societal change, climate change, etc makes certain people flip out because they feel their entire way of life and values under attack and they lash out like petulant children.

>what’s the fucking harm in transitioning to alternative renewable sources of energy?

Change scares my feelings, which, when you have them, are gay.

I had somehow missed her age during everything, and honestly thought she was 12 or 13. So, yeah, this dude needs to be watched.

“I have never thought that thing I said” is pretty impressive by the admittedly already high standard of bullshit to say in insincere apologies. 

“not acting in line with the club, who focus on moral values ​​even more than technical values​.”

You know how the old defense for a lot of creepy dudes banging underage teens is, “She looks older?” The opposite could not possibly be more true for Greta. She's 16, but she has the vibe of a precocious 11-year-old. (This in no way diminishes the righteousness of her fury, BTW.) So for this dude to be saying that…

I mean, cool. But, you know, maybe show some compassion towards all victims of abuse? Maybe we shouldn’t immediately revert to toxic masculinity and say “what a little baby for calling the cops”?

Well, he’s not Poor Rodriguez.

When I saw TBL the first time (on DVD like 10 years ago), I immediately loved it. I still don’t think I fully “get” No Country for Old Men! Sorry!

I’m with you. Raising Arizona was my first introduction to them and ever since then I love their goofy stuff, even The Ladykillers.

I too love TBL and feel Fargo is massively overrated. My sword is yours.

See, I had to adjust to Fargo after seeing Hudsucker Proxy. The goofier Coen movies are much more my speed, and I love them right away. The violent, serious movies have to sit a bit.

There’s no way to say this without sounding like That Guy, so I will now own being That Guy in this instance.
