That’s even more disturbing than if it were a robbery; robbery I can understand, but who would want Big Papi dead?

They will not drive or even own a car themselves anymore. They will be shuttled around in driverless autonomous pods and use their time on the road for other stuff than driving.

Or, maybe, people prefer SUVs?  There’s no practical reason for an accountant to daily drive a Raptor (or a truck, full stop) and yet, America.

As a Cub fan, I am very happy that Eloy is on the South Side; if he were at Wrigley, he’d be playing every 6 days, rotating between RF and catching duties or some shit.  

Do these blow up to funny shapes at all?

Relax, if the Cubs had to resort to signing Kimbrel, that means Morrow’s probably not on track; I doubt Kimbrel hits the ground running, considering the layoff, the age, and changing leagues... not a recipe for immediate results.

This is some Frank Drebin shit.

Now, the fact that the VESA mount isn’t simply built into the monitor itself and instead requires a $200 part - that is jackassery.

Unless you’re just starting out, most design joints who would consider paying 6K per monitor already have the VESA stands and are swapping out new tech for whatever was hanging on them before.

For every 100 of those monitors they sell, they might ship 20 stands. Very few design professionals work off one monitor these days, so the majority of people who get one of these will get a second or third as well.  If the stand is going to meet the design and manufacturing quality of the monitor it is mated to, and…

Look, nobody deserves to have THAT business documented, whether there’s a window looking straight into it or not.

You can play any card from the history of the game for free if you and your friends agree to allow proxies; if not, well... your options dwindle.  Quickly.

He’s the ultimate outsider.

Thing is, you take Trump’s hat-head here, trim up the long part that’s going over his collar in back, then shorten the sides, and he actually looks... like a fat Joe Biden.

If I were him, I would go to a rent-all joint, rent some rolling jacks, and deposit that thing out in the street or down some alley. I bet the police, the tow companies, or the owners of the vehicle would take an interest in the fate of the car if it were blocking an intersection instead of safely taking up somebody…

I just think it’s odd how being a modern sports fan kind of pushes our brain into weird places, like, being more concerned that Heyward is overpaid or Kimbrel’s ask is too high than hey, this guy choked a defenseless person and fired a weapon repeatedly to intimidate/threaten her while a baby was in the next room.

I understand the point you are making, but I think we can throw the concept of “worth it” out the window when we sold our souls to rent a domestic abuser in 2016 and doubled-down with Addison Russell.  

This. If stadiums are going to insist on having mascot antics and t-shirt cannons and 50/50 draws and sausage races and vendors crawling the stands throughout the game, they should really make more of an effort to protect the people they are distracting.  Even if every fan in the stadium was glued to every pitch,…

The Cubs’ bullpen has 11 blown saves through 5/29/19 and are clinging to a half-game lead over the Brewers, who’ve only had 4 blown save ops. As someone who is a fan of the Cubs-who-shit-the-bed-the-right-way, this refusal to look at Kimbrel is hitting me in all the right places.

I’d be 100% in the “lens flare” camp except it’s hard to fathom a type of lens flare that shows up on radar, persists at multiple angles across multiple platforms of observation, and moves without distortion while the observer is relatively stationary. Try to replicate that with a little flashlight and a pane of…
