So now that it's over, Starfleet Academy season 1 was bad. There was one good episode, one above average episode, two meh episodes, and 6 awful episodes.
Overall better than Discovery/Picard season 1. But still pretttttttty bad.
We'll see if season 2 is any better.
Suck it Anaheim.
“I hate that this is a thing,” Raleigh said. “I really don’t think this is a big deal, a big story. It shouldn’t be a thing.”
Amen brother. Amen.
Good news T-Mobile people - set an alarm for the 24th to get your free MLBTV again!
Putting aside that they're clearing fucking with each other, if Raleigh/Arozarena want to be Kent/Bonds, that's totally fine with me.
Ever used mlb.tv? Then it's that. Same app. Only difference is if you pay for mariners.tv on it's own or with the mlb.tv bundle, then now when you click on Mariners games in mlb.tv, you won't get blacked out.

I've basically decided if this isn't available to purchase by my birthday in July, I'm just going to get a birthday present for myself by just building a living room gaming PC and calling it good.
I already just use Bazzite on an old gaming laptop in my living room and it works great in general.
BREAKING: Atlanta Braves designated hitter Jurickson Profar is facing a 162-game suspension after testing positive for a performance-enhancing drug for the second time, sources told Jeff Passan
Been saying for years that I wish spring training games were not broadcasted in any form nor public records kept.
This week's Star Trek Starfleet Academy wasn't bad, but instead it was incredibly boring.
Watched two plate appearances of today's game* and that's enough glorified practice for me. See you in five weeks Mariners.
*Mostly just to make sure mariners.tv worked.
I really really hate agreeing with Arte Moreno, but yeah this is mostly correct I'd say.
Though I'll quibble with the top 5 comment. I bet winning is at least 4th.
Rewatching the Félix perfecto and I forgot just how early Sims started calling it as such. He was on it by the third.

Star Trek: Into Darkness. The only time I've ever been "that guy" who was yelling things at the screen in the theater. Though thankfully there was maybe 20 people in the theater, including my friend and I.
photograph from the 80's of the wrestler Sting wearing a Gold's Gym shirt and sunglasses, leaning against a shelf in a bookstore and positively cheesing at an open copy of The Far Side Gallery 2, a collection of Far Side Cartoons.
what if i told you, through the power of forensic analysis, we are closer than ever to knowing the exact Far Side cartoon that is making Sting smile in this iconic photo. 🧵 👇

@AaronGleeman Pablo López has a torn elbow ligament and “surgery is very much on the table” according to Twins general manager Jeremy Zoll.
If surgery is needed, López would miss the entire season.

I didn't realize Chris Bassitt signed a 1 year, $18.5M deal with the Orioles.
Would have loved that for the Mariners. Would have been a perfect finishing move to this off-season to push Bryce Miller into depth role.
The Mariners' 2024 rotation was very good, and the 2025 rotation was indeed hurt. But I think there's a tendency to exaggerate:
1. How good in 2024
2. How hurt in 2025
