Well, like I said, it's not a big deal and I agree with TBay's main point regardless (and generally he is one of the posters I like around here)... but since there was back and forth bickering and this is a message board, I felt compelled to point out that TimHack, oddly, wasn't wrong. As for the real topic at hand, my initial reaction was "way to start gaining a little traction and success only to immediately decide to water down the product". As I thought about it more, I can see some validity to feeling like this may be the best opportunity to expand into certain markets like Philly and Cleveland. I think it's a missed opportunity not to be expanding to Boston. Some of the women gaining popularity right now all seem to be straight white women such as Clark, Beuckers, Van Lith, Cunningham. Boston would seem like the best area to expand. Granted, liberals would rather a biological man be the face of womens sports than a straight white female.

you initially said the finals got the highest rating in 6 years. Now it's game 7 specifically. again, I don't care because I understand your overall point and you didn't really need to include any specific numbers to back it up. but I can also understand Mooney correcting you. that is all

like i said, it's not really important Though I think if the number was 2, that would be very significant and we would be having some serious discussion at to why. So while I agree, the actual number does not matter in terms of 6.2 vs 6.1 etc etc, you came with a specific number of 6.7 for playoff rating this year and a specific claim that it was the highest rated finals in 6 years. Mooney may be nitpicking but you started off with specific numbers and claims and backpedaled to simple notions (NBA having higher ratings) so i'm not going to totally fault the guy for discussing the numbers.

reading the back and forth, it's not really important but i'd say Mooney is right. You can't make the claims you were making based off what google AI overview told you with a link to NBA.com and then act like it's not your problem if you quoted numbers that were wrong.

don't bother. they all get it, they just won't admit it

Yeah, I gotta say i've mostly avoided this thread because anyone with common sense knows that Trump is many things.... brash, unhinged, delusional, self absorbed, pompous, and sometimes speaks without thinking.... but also anyone with common sense knows that a topic about his "cognitive decline" and health is trolling. The ones who were duped by their media into believing Biden was sharp as a tack, only to have them turn on the poor guy when it couldn't be hidden any longer are grasping because their guy and their party looked so bad in the process. Until Trump is walking around like a literal zombie, with seemingly no idea where he is, or until he looks into a camera and freezes mid sentence for several seconds. It's not even close. Biden had clear signs of legitimate dementia and then we find out he has aggressive prostate cancer, which had to be present while he was still in office. I'm not going to post the you tube video and I know its an edited golf vlog but when Trump played with Bryson last year, if you just watch that video, you clearly see a guy who can carry on a regular conversation and be completely present. I just can't imagine Biden in a 50-60 minute video like that.

Phase 1 all star voting was a nice microcosm of the issues for Tampa in that market in St Pete. The fact that they are building a new stadium there continues to boggle my mind. A team that is half a game behind the Wankees, 4th best record in the AL, 5th best run differential in the majors and they did not have a single player make phase 2 of all star voting. 3B Caminero - .260/.824 20HR 51RBI Leads all AL third basemen in home runs and RBI. Hard to argue against Jose Ramirez, I would think Caminero is more deserving than Bregman. 2B Lowe - .267/.784 16HR 43RBI Leads all AL second baseman in home runs and RBI. Torres and Holliday are the 2 finalists and Altuve was actually 3rd?? disrespectful. DH Diaz - .286/.803 12HR 44RBI When you remove Devers, Diaz ranks 1st in average, 3rd in HR and 1st in RBI among AL designated hitters. Ryan Ohearn and Ben Rice ahead of him? 1B Aranda - .329/.898 8HR 41RBI Leads all AL first baseman in average (3rd overall), ranks 10th in HR and 4th in RBI. Even though the power hasn't been there, The average and run production has been. Very comparable numbers to Vlad Jr and better than Goldy but Yankee fans actually vote. Bregman is hurt so I could see Caminero there as a reserve and in the HR Derby.... but it feels like Rasmussen will wind up going as a pitcher and no one else. It's shameful for such a good team.

Diddy was mentioned last year or the year before by the dude they arrested.

I thought Tupac was basically just an actor playing a role anyway

There’s really not many politicians at all that are worth any focks. And she’s half right in that politicians of any gender just want their piece of the $ pie and power.

Did you land that mail carrier gig?
