This?

Glad you broke that down with actual numbers. I was just thinking... that game? Really? I mean I know we had two copies, one for our house and one at grandma’s just cause she bought a N64 for all the grandkids to play on.

HA! that was exactly my thought. I think it’s the angle of the photo and him turning at that precise moment.

Japan Today reported that she won’t have to talk to reporters. Medal winners are asked to do media after winning, but the host country sets the rule, and they’re leaving it up to the athletes if they want to participate. Here’s the story.

I’m not sure a player rep would be enough neutral territory, but I see what you’re getting at. Maybe a tournament rep.

You are right in your conclusions from the reporting that I’ve read. They’ve made it sound like Roland-Garros and other tournament organizers are the villain in this, and I don’t think that’s fair or accurate.

I 100% agree with you. All of what you said. That’s why someone should tell the players they are in control of those moments. They don’t have to answer the asinine question meant to elicit some kind of gotcha moment.

That’s not what they did. They cited the Code of Conduct. You could argue the Code of Conduct should be changed, but you can’t validly argue that it was misapplied or was beyond the scope of what every player agreed to.

Yup. Not collusion. Just stating what everyone had already agreed to. No one was surprised, and Roland Garros even said they didn’t apply the maximum penalty because they wanted to engage in a conversation and help her team understand how they were applying the rules.

But does the question matter all that much? The answer matters way more, and I wish we didn’t even hear the questions.

It’s utterly ridiculous how once again athletes are being forced to engage with a media that will always be hostile...

Your car will drive you home when the cloud determines your time to be optimal...

I’m agreeing with all of y’all, but I wouldn’t mind seeing driverless cargo carriers in some kind of lane that isn’t jacking up the interstate. Also, would be good for rapid bus transit or something like that.

Depends on the podcast.

I remember when it was Late Night with David Letterman, then he moved to CBS and NBC was like, “Uh, you go. Leave the name, Dave.”

haha seriously thinking the same thing. I’m not sure that math is exact.

I bow to your greatness.

I’m not one to defend sponsored content, but I have a 65% keyboard (not this one, which seems a little less than) that I use when I want a clean typing experience in my backyard. This one isn’t wireless, but that’s part of why I like my keyboard.

You could be right. I was just pointing out the why, not defending it.
