Term to make happen: Kashing out (derogatory)

I think it's the unhappiness, speaking from previous experience. Generally not a thing happy people do. Thankful to learn that positivity breeds positivity.

Just a buncha regular fuckin' Joes 'ere eyyyy *fonz gesturing confidently*

I liked his college basketball play-by-play work!

Love ya buddy. She did a great job. You're doing a great job.

A sample from a transfer portal live tracker built by Objectively Drew. It tracks all 365 D1 schools' roster changes in everything from height and weight, to advanced offensive metrics, to shooting percentages.

The men's #CBB transfer portal is hot now that we've hit the 2-week mark.

I'm tracking live changes to teams' before and after ratings.

Is the portal improving your school's team, or hurting it?

It's especially confusing to those who came for the sick cars, yo

I would've thought the Scotch-Irish derived Appalachian as in "wash", but now you've Goofyfied it for me too

I didn't know about the 2022 sale at all. As a once-owner of some of the titles from earlier years I now feel 100% better about emulators and cabinets being my only entry point to them now.

The production budget for Alex Garland’s ‘Elden Ring’ movie is well over $100M 💰 ⚔️

A24’s most expensive film ever

The Knicks have more claim to the suburb of Villanova than Philly currently does (and likely what Spike was going for) 😆

This is not at all how I expected it to go, but I sure am relieved. Full, fresh start next year for a city and franchise that were overdue.

If it were ranked like CBB, Notre Dame and Miami would've both been in, likely BYU too. CBB used analytics (WAB in particular) more than ever this year and the field reflected those ranks almost exactly. No seed was off by more than one, of aggregate metric rank.

If we let a formula decide the teams (with zero poll data or preseason rank impact) then the show could cover analysis of the teams with zero argument. Like a camera calling balls and strikes. Like standings for almost every sport in the world.

At $0.69 we couldn't afford not to have these in our house

Even funnier as a way to be steadfast when it washes off every day. A tattoo is a lot more steadfast 😆

For sure! I don't want anyone to endure waiting weeks for a replacement console, or have to buy another outright

I recommend aftermarket USB fan attachments! My first PS5 melted from standing upright (which I later learned was a no-no for performance) and while well-ventilated, the stock fans just aren't good enough

Turns out it was blasphemy as the Knicks lose to Atlanta. Doubt we'll see Spike rock it again.

Been awhile since I watched the NCAA on NBC

No one is putting him in a box. He's said he's a Bulls fan. Look at his eyes smile in that photo compared to the one with Spike.

Pope Leo and the team he actually claims to be a fan of, with a customized jersey for his hometown Chicago Bulls.

Wrong team Spike. Think peak 90s.

Definitely didn't break a build or optimize. But did die a lot. I experienced the game when it was new alongside streamers who were saying the bosses were more unfair because they didn't take turns/spammed long chain attacks more frequently.

If Elden Ring was a 5 of 10, how difficult would you rate DS1, 2, and 3?

I want to gauge my likelihood to not pull my hair out playing them 😆

Unions demanded it. Stronger unions for masons and bricklayers ensured (via local legislation, seen in Chicago too!) that those materials would have to be used for a percent of the structure even after the rise of steel beam construction.

When you consider Meta's ownership and who it bends the knee to (in the name of runaway personal gain) it becomes easier to imagine a platform designed specifically to amplify division amongst its users - which keeps the $B-corp-friendly people in power

With how good the Hitman World of Assassination has been, this is probably the most excited I've been for a game in 10 years.

Commercial endtag:

Never weaving, always unraveling. Threads.

Nothing like a little stint against the NL East to get a record back on track.
