...at the performance of guys who will still be here. Specific things need to go better.
-Bohm needs to get out of his slump.
-Trea needs to get going
-The bullpen needs to walk fewer people.
-Starters need to get deeper into games
Things like that. Topper can only pull levers.
I'd be fine firing Topper.
Don't think he's a bad manager, but I think a bit of an energy shift wouldn't be the worst thing.
Having said that, the specific things that need to go better are basically outside Topper's control.
You'd be firing a guy essentially out of frustration...
He's a liar and a killer. I don't know what else to tell people, he's a rich eugenicist, he wants as many poor people as possible to die in the name of 'health.' He's a genuinely and uniquely malign figure in American life and his appointment was an act of violence
Matt Damon playing a 14th century French knight that looks like a third baseman for the Phillies. Mullet. Beard. Smells like horse shit, pine tar, and cigarette smoke.
Matt Damon while playing Odysseus who also looks like a third baseman for the Phillies. Long, skinny beard. Smells like horseshit, pine tar, and perhaps Mediterranean herbs.
Matt Damon playing a 19th century cowboy that looks like a third baseman for the Phillies. Mustache. Shaggy hair. Smells like horse shit, pine tar, and definitely chewing tobacco.
Every time Matt Damon takes on a period role he ends up looking like a third baseman for the Phillies.
It’s his day
Remember, Democrats have repeatedly advanced measures to ban partisan gerrymandering and Republicans have voted against them time after time.
This is the game Republicans wanted to play. OK, then.
Texas republicans illegally gerrymandered their maps and never once asked voters how they feel about it.
California and Virginia let voters decide.
That’s the difference. They started this fight and Democrats are going to fucking finish it.
Kash is going to need proof that these allegations are defamatory.
100 proof.
Imagine being the FBI Director, putting up video of yourself swilling beer with the men's hockey team, then trying to sue people for saying you're a drunk.
going from Artetaball to Stanley Cup Playoff hockey is like going from LaCroix to a original recipe FourLoko
What I personally think is, with 115's ability to correct themselves in case of failed transfer or injuries by ahem! Spending more money... For all other teams it has become extremely difficult. Especially when they already have Pep, a cheat code.
Other teams can't do that easily & need more luck.
Maybe, but look at the past few seasons...
Look at Lpool with few injuries, Nwcstle, Sp*rs
Now look at the past 8 years since Pep's first title. Lpool did it when they got extremely lucky with the availability of their best players.
I'm not saying btw there isn't scope for improvement from Arteta.
truly untoward that rfk can just essentially call to murder disabled people but if i describe the consequences he should face for creating the conditions to murder disabled people somehow i am in trouble. fucked up! anyway, feet first.
You cannot treat society like your weird toxic Grindr profile.
"Just a preference" doesn't make you less of an ass.
“Unc bad. We should simply not have unc. Childless man worthy of respect who serves as a good role model, bad”
first, assume all masculinity toxic
this is like *the* paradigmatic "we do not speak each other's language but everyone is cool and friendly here" interaction with strangers
impossible to overstate how poisonous this shit is. dudes on the street smiling and waving at your toddler are an indicator of a happy and functional community
This is such a horrific, ridiculous timeline.
ANCIENT GREEK PRO WRESTLING PROMOTER: ok so you're going to be what's known as a "heel"
ACHILLES: fuck you
I think this is notable - the Biden economy was growing healthily & had finally overcome its COVID inflation hangover. There was no obvious fundamental reason the economy wouldn’t have kept growing nicely if Trump were normal!
Checking in, /Canes fans...
Safe to say things are still looking good! 😆 #StanleyCup

like this is an extremely well documented and verified fact about humans writ large: cooperation is how we became such a staggeringly successful species.
this fact also enrages and confuses loathsome manosphere types who know somewhere in their bones that it’s true
It bears repeating that historically, the #1 thing that keeps people alive in hard times and disasters is “the ability to play well with others”
That’s right
the fantasy and, bluntly, the reality. I think at some level THAT's ultimately why we get Trumps. People WANTED things to go to shit because at least it quashes the kind of existentialist angst that comes with higher orders of problem than survival-level.
also, boredom.
I forgot that that dickhead was Pittsburgh adjacent😔
US Senator and noted Pittsburgh fan John Fetterman told the Penguins that scoring goals was anti-semitic
