Yes. It’s with their non-evil nonprofit practice.

LSU - where Kelly went because at Notre Dame players had some academic requirements - losing the same weekend Notre Dame won one of it’s two hard games this year (No 2 being USC) is poetic justice. And I hate ND but God may want them to take a playoff spot from the Tigers.

Those guys who started on the Mets staff in the late 60’s and were coached by Rube Walker.

This guy pitched for a while too.

Nobody who was paying attention was in the least bit confused about this.

TBF, there are quite a few of my classmates who id worry about.

I had no interest in Wall Street - I think people who get an MBA for $$ are the ones you have to worry about.

That was a response to a (meritless) suit kvetching that the primary was rigged. The DNC simply said, without addressing the merits of the case, that they can do whatever they want, which is true, and yet…they do not.

Oddest tidbit from that film - which is objectively awful in so many ways - is that the little boy who crushes on the girl singer is Benny in The Queens Gambit.

Performative theoretical outrage.

They’re going to have to fire him next year and that will mean 2 extra years of irrelevance.

I don’t have a lot of rules but “take the pain as soon as you can” is up there.

Just unbelievable levels of cowardice.

I am partial to the panicked posts about coyotes and when is someone going to do something about them.

I have not been panicking about this even a little bit.

He is competent at self promotion but he is unable to manage an organization. People from Tesla and SpaceX talk about how the executive team manages around him. No one to do that at Twitter, and you see the result.

So…yes, he’s incompetent as the CEO of Twitter.

My son had a tournament in Irvine a year ago and they went forward despite the forecast rain - “as long as there were no standing puddles”. Guys were literally on the sidelines filling in puddles during the first game.

They cancelled after that. My son had never been so cold and miserable.
