I honestly do not understand who is helped by this change. The new season functionally runs summer to spring. It includes the hottest months and the coldest months, but skips the months of relatively nice weather. (May-June.) Like what. Why.

MLS owners in 2027 seeing February attendance numbers

A fall-spring calendar would be awful for MLS. Only what, two of the teams have covered stadiums?
MLS owners are *expected* to vote on flipping to fall-spring calendar at Thursday's BOG meeting. Changes to competition format also expected.

Let's see if it actually comes to a vote, but implications are enormous.

NEW STEAM CONTROLLER BAYBEE

(I mean the console is cool too, but the OG steam controller is the GOAT and the new one looks even better.)
Valve is making a console. The Steam Machine, a sleek box with the guts of a mid-range PC that runs SteamOS, will arrive in early 2026. Prices TBD, but unlike the failed Steam Machine initiative from a decade ago, this is Valve's own device. Big news www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Since apparently there is James Bond discourse, here’s the simplest way to get out this self-imposed “how do we unkill Bond” mess.

YOU DON’T *NEED* CONTINUITY, FFS

Keep the same actors for M, Moneypenny, Q, Leiter, and Lashana Lynch as 008 or whatever number.
New Bond.
Set it in the 60s.

EASY.

Between Pistons/Wizards, Cavs/Heat, Bucks/Mavs, and obviously Spurs/Bulls, this is this kind of night that just reminds you why basketball is awesome.

And why Wemby is the best.

This guy seems cool, but I’m now just worried that somewhere out there there’s a guy named Tommy Somerton who’s pure evil.

I love Football Manager. There’s no joy quite like when the little men in the computer do what you want them to do.

But it’s the most tense spreadsheet you’ll ever play.

I’m 5 points back in the WE League title race with 3 to play. Against 11th, 1st and 12th. Still technically within reach.
