  1. I’m not sure it has ever worked on the team results page. I haven’t tried in years because it never did work for me.
  2. Agree. I’m not sure when I have felt so excited and nervous for the possibilities of spring training and the season. This is becoming the organization I’ve been hoping decades for them to be.
  3. Because, as with the National Park Service, the CDC, and Social Security, if people approve of it, it must be crushed.
  4. Never mind that they are also multi-millionaire professional athletes and not college kids ...
  5. Yeah, and besides, who needs useless "administrative and clerical" personnel on staff, anyway? These college-educated nuclear nimrods can process their own paperwork, manage and maintain their own records and filing systems, copy and mail and fax their own documents, sort and distribute their own mail, and greet visitors and handle reception desk duties on their own. Elitist eggheaded jerks, amirite?
  6. This is also a really good example of how meaningless the names MAGA use to disparage their stated enemies really are. As if ewsieg were any kind of liberal at all. The labels are not used as descriptors of any sort, but are leveled only to delight and/or horrify fellow red hats about the person in question. the best example in my view is when they earnestly refer to Democrats as "Marxists", which is asinine on its face and serves only to highlight how ignorant red hats are about what the goal of Marxism is.
  7. Man, these examples definitely deserve their own thread. Paging Dr. @romad1 with the catchy thread titles …
  8. Maybe I should change my handle to Pfife Lite. 😁
  9. This is a really good one because the Trump brain trust very smartly surrounded him with numerous individuals each of whom appeal to single-pet-issue voters who would conveniently disregard or ignore everything else Trump literally said he was going to do.
  10. In my view, this helps explain how MAGAs literally think of Trump the way they think of God. God is anything you want him to be. People freely point to certain Bible verses to support their point of view and conveniently ignore or eschew others. And conservatives aren’t alone in doing this: liberal Christians freely eschew biblical dictates to murder their unmarried daughters in public for losing their virginity, avoid wearing clothes made of both linen and wool, and pierce their slave’s ear if he demands freedom. So when someone like this fellow says he believes Trump was going take a fine tooth comb and make surgical cuts to make government somewhat more efficient, instead of taking a wrecking ball to it, he is disregarding what Trump himself said on the campaign trail he would do, and what the Project 2025 he was obviously so entwined with said he would do, and choosing instead to believe what the fantasy Trump in his head would do, simply because that what this voter himself would have done. Now multiply that times millions of MAGAs who are about to have the leopard they voted for eat their faces. It’s this kind of thinking that has led Trump to believe he really is our god. No wonder he’s acting like it.
  11. So oblong and other moderators are not censo … err, moderating their own speech on the political forum, and that makes it a circus here? That’s pretty rich. Well, if this is a circus, then you’re one of the clowns.
  12. Ironically, Republicans would unironically maintain that by taking government out of your healthcare, especially government health insurance, it is actually you and no one else who gets to determine whether you live or die.
  13. What, they can’t they push plane safety and national pandemic control down to the states? That’s what Jefferson would want. I guess.
  14. And Illinois. Don’t forget Illinois.
  15. By Ted’s standard, looks like Canada gets to keep their own nation.
  16. I just tried it and they still have that feature. One thing they did change was showing salaries in the Value tables of a player’s card. It was really handy to scroll down just a touch and see what the players’ pay was for their careers versus their performance. Now you have to scroll practically all the way to the bottom of a guy’s card, and if you’re on a phone, you have to expand the Salaries table to see it.
  17. Masshole Nation demands nothing less!
  18. Yeah i guess it’s probably facile to say it’s because ESPN is a football-and-basketball network—although those are their two top sports by far—because a lot of what they do as well is soccer, women’s sports, and college sports of all types. They are almost as much a lifestyle as sports network.
  19. I feel confident enough in the Fetter team to say that if Mize comes back with the splitter, they worked with him on it extensively before he breaks it out.
  20. Yes, and also, there is a ****ton of oil and other natural resources up there. Personally, I think he’s using the Canada 51 canard as a distraction tool while they destroy America’s constitutional democracy under our noses. I bet he’s getting notes on this stuff, too.
  21. Making our lives better or us safer is definitely not the job he was given to do.
  22. When Trump or his people say they are joking about anything they said, is it ever funny?
  23. Everything in this article is 100% plausible.
  24. I think most people would agree were the open joke that you should kill the Somalian instead, it would have been considered way less comfortable to everyone in that group.
