The Swamp

I would just like to agree with every point that DSafe made. Any writer who has made a living as a writer has worked on many shows that they would never watch. But it's a living. I can pretty much guarantee that the person who wrote that Mike Piazza scene has at least one university degree. If I ha...

Yes, but they taper off in value as time passes/the number of times the show re-airs.

I'm getting there, NLFC. Sure, I get that. It wasn't hard to decipher. The international angle is an interesting part of it. But what I'm talking about is a room full of highly-paid (maybe?) writers who have a job writing for an extremely popular show. And they have to write shit like that. And whil...

Dualipaty?

Hopefully that was communicated to Philly so they don’t bother pulling the GK at 1-1. It wasn't. Shaaaaaady.... The flyers being eliminated then taking the Penguins and Patrick Kane with them is perfection, right down to Kane's sad and meaningless shootout winner. Wouldn’t change a thing. Kane also...

I'm very curious about the writers' room on shows like that. How does that work? Are they hacks? Are they embittered old writers who've given up and and are just doing whatever pays the bills? There is a much broader level of storytelling used in shows like "Baywatch", which was reliant o...

I like how the teams that get promoted and relegated will pay multiples of travel expenses over the course of a season than the established, big money school.

Was that the dualarity?

It's also a little weird bc the Caps have the tiebreaker on Detwah. I guess the fact that DET is playing a team wo any real motivation while WAS is away to a team with a puncher's chance moves the needle. I can definitely see Montreal being motivated after giving up a 4-1 lead to the Wings last nig...

Three teams battling for one spot in Game 82. Fun stuff. ETA: I guess technically Philly isn’t eliminated yet so four teams. Wow. https://twitter.com/domluszczyszyn/status/1780094724465930286 As I told a Pens fan friend last night after seeing this, "This seems factually inaccurate, as I have ...

Lucas Fucking Raymond.

Ties it with a little over a minute to go in regulation after the Wings rally from 4-1, tacks on the gamer with under 25 seconds left in OT.

It feels like every game in which they are not shut out involves one team making a comeback of three goals, minimum.

STILL.

Great question. And I agree that increasing the size of the court - and possibly the lane - would help. It's kind of wild to think about the size of players today compared to when the court size was decided. Obviously, there are logistical issues with increasing the size of courts at some older gym...

So, the funny thing is the person who brought Norm McDonald to that basketball game I played in years ago in LA... Kato Kaelin. I am 100% serious. One of our regulars brought a guy a couple times, who turned around and brought Kato at some point. He became a regular and eventually started bringing N...

Nice, Giff.

Our oldest was stoked when she found out her teachers recommended her for the honors level classes for all the core courses her freshman year, including the English and Social Studies classes that cross over, including more debate and group projects.

I enjoy watching Edey play - total throwback. Hope he lands somewhere in the NBA where he can settle in at 20 minutes a game off the bench and have a long long career. Why didn’t Painter go to the portal to sign a big to play 15 minutes a game? They ran Edey like a freakin mule this year. I get tha...

It seems like Calipari's fit at Kentucky has always been at least a little bit off. Once he said that the goal was to prepare his players for their NBA futures, it seemed like there was no coming back and smoothing over any bumps.

Our house is now allegedly outside of the area of totality (original projections had us getting around one minute, 15 seconds). 67% sky cover projected at that time, anyway.

I think you would have to go with AirBnB/VRBO, as most hotels cannot guarantee connecting or adjoining rooms, which it sounds like you would want for this group. If you can, reach out to the "managers" of the houses you find prior to officially booking and mention the special circumstances...

I just caught the last quarter in the sportsbook attached to the arena. It looked like the same thing as last year - a machine with 5 well-oiled parts vs. 1 superstar. Of course, I’ve been drinking without eating much, so grain of salt and all that. Nope, this is accurate. Iowa got off to a quick s...

Thursday in a Tigers-Mets game, Hernandez called a strike on Torkelson, who was apparently being hit on the hand (replays made it look like the ball missed him and Torkelson was trying to get on base - this clip shows no change in flight of the ball). Hernandez called a strike without gesturing that...

And Bueckers' responsibility on the play includes waiting for the pick to be set to help avoid getting a whistle.

Not trying to pick on her, just making the point that the cutter/ballhandler has a responsibility avoiding illegal screens, too.

I wouldn't. Their recent series of ads was about the new iPhone, so unless there was a new phone from a different manufacturer coming out, there isn't much for a cell phone provider to advertise.

They closed schools for the day here because there is supposed to be just over one minute of full eclipse here that will coincide with our local elementary school releasing kids for buses and pick-up. Free glasses for our youngest, though (not sure about the middle school).
