I read books n stuff
First proper business book I’ve read. It’s sloppily self published with a ton of blank pages, grammatical errors, and weird math. I don’t think I learned much I couldn’t have figured out on my own if I really thought ab the problem. But I found it’s earnestness charming

Absolutely fantastic. If you read one book on the early American republic, it should be this one. I’m just going to trust everything Gordon Wood writes tbh

Just finished this book. Extremely mediocre presidential biography which serves as a fine intro to TJ if you know nothing v little ab him. Brought down by the fact that the author likes TJ too much. Highlights are the discussions on TJ’s v interesting religious views.

FINALLY finished this book. Took forever with the move and everything. Could have been titled “All the ways the south tried to break away before the civil war.” Spends very little time talking ab slaves and Indians as people, which is to be expected of a book like this from 1960

But confused by what you ab the tracking speeds? His max speed is in range with other speeds for guys who ran low-mid 4.3s (+/- 0.3 mph) and shaving off 0.05ish seconds w form passes a sniff test. It’s prob the best time he could’ve gotten, but doesn’t seem to rise to the level of laser time error?

If you want to read just one (1) book on the political history of the American Revolution, I recommend this book by John Ferling

Told my mom Donovan McNabb has a HS recruit son who’s about the same age as my little brother

Shoutout to the GOAT who made the Green Bay-Shawano combined statistical area map on Wikipedia Packers colors. I see you and I appreciate you.

The definitive account of the first year of the pandemic. Super duper thorough, and just makes you so mad Trump is back in the White House. Thoroughly recommend

Assuming:
1. You get the ball back after he scores
2. You have a 5% chance to get a shot off
3. You have a 1% chance of making that shot
4. LeBron makes every dunk

Then my simulations suggest you have something like a 3-5% chance of winning, depending on how many 3s he attempts

Just finished the Mitch McConnell bio. Not good! The author does a poor job at contextualizing McConnell within his historical moment and getting across the character of the man. You get a couple episodes of a few Senate fights and learn which R senators he hates. Don’t recommend!

The Greek mythology edition also went triple platinum in the McAnalytics household from 2008-2010, for the record

retweet with a favorite book from your childhood

Here is Mitch McConnell explaining that ending segregation was tougher in Alabama than in Louisville because black people had inferior social skills pre-integration

Just finished this book. Definitely pretty dense but super informative. I had no idea that polygamy was such a massive and complex hot button issue in post-Civil War America.

Highly recommend.

This week’s recruiting rankings!

The big headline is that Georgia got wins by getting commits from 2 4 stars even though they lost to Ole Miss. They can get the #1 overall class if they nab the two best uncommitted GA players.
