not winter, not spring, a secret fifth season

I just occurred to me that 90% of what I know about Disneyworld is based off Itchy and Scratchy Land

I was telling the guys at work that I feel pretty good about Team USA's chances of advancing specifically because these are the two things that Aaron Nola is best at. He was made for this moment.

So... are the union just going to move to the Trinidad league or...

I’m not positive but pretty certain 90% of Bluesky users live within 30 miles of Philadelphia. This feels demographically correct.

Me to all my neighbors outside today

The whole Santa thing is a real own goal. It seems crazy to me that religious people expect to be able to go "yeah, that magical guy with all the powers, all fake. But the other guy with the magical powers, still real." and think kids aren't going to start wondering.

Sticker shock from Milton Williams contract last year has me prepared for anything, nothing that is going to happen today can shock me

What athlete’s expression will stay with you the rest of your life?

Saw WWE vault recently uploaded a 2005 Punk / Danielson match from FIP. Seems weird they only had four indy matches. ROH only ran it once (?), PWG never ran it. IWA only ran it once. Surprised there weren't random promoters like JAPW or IWC booking it just to book it by 2004.

And what is even the argument for Jaws over mcnabb? I disagree about Randall but understand some people love the Randall vibes. But Jaws was always just kind of a guy.

I saw your list on Greg's thread. But the reasoning jumps around to my eye. Either winning is what matters and Reggie / Dawk should be off in favor of BG or whomever. Or being great is what matters and Nick is a career journeyman that went on a two game heater at the perfect time.

Donovan was 9-7. I would drop Jaws or Randall before Donovan pretty easily myself. OK, so if Foles is your 1, who are the other three? All super bowl winners?

Fifth for me. Super Bowl bumps him pretty easily to the head of the 10k-15k passing yard tier ahead of Wentz, Vick, etc. Hurts has a SB too and the other three have so many more passing yards I can't dismiss them personally but don't blame others who do based on whatever their own methods are.

No, I was saying 49 other players, not 49 other quarterbacks lol. Might not even get to 49 players either, just threw a number out.

I'm always a "career matters" guy in these things. My Rushmore might need 50 spots to get to Nick. Not on my Eagles QB Rushmore (5, Randall, Jaws, Hurts). Eagles Rushmore probably going Chuck, Reggie, Dawk, Kelce. All 4x or better first team All Pros with Eagles. Probably all Hall of Famers.

SNL monolouge was funny because I've gotten so used to mannings and kelces and lebrons being relatively competent and then the hughes brothers showed up

Plus reevaluation is hardly a formality with Joel, that injury he had in Novemberish was supposed to be reevaluated in a week and ended up being almost a month

Hot take probably but can we grow up and stop doing the friend of the Phanatic thing, you are an adult writing for other adults

I was always under the impression that high school ice hockey was kind of its own hybrid thing / category around here because most high schools share public rinks and as such, had costs associated with it that the other sport(s) did / do not.

I might be getting too old to not have a snow blower

Me: Doing nothing, noticing in passing the front yard is mostly grass

Forecast:

I have PTO again. The game to not use it every single Friday afternoon is afoot.

lol

What's the game theory? I'm pretty analytical but not a diehard. Going lefty, lefty, right so that the light hitter can bat third isn't computing for me. Have the analytics swung that far in favor of just get your best hitters as many ABs as possible? Then why Schwarber 1? Just based on last season?

RFK Jr. anytime there are cameras nearby

1000% it's probably #1 even if it wasn't infamous for pissing Coolio off but with that added notoriety it's not close imo

Gathering that not being a guitar hero guy has given me a very different Weezer experience than most

Offspring is weird since they basically became a different band Americana onward. And pretty fly was def "bigger" at the time but the kids aren't alright seems bigger now (4x as many yt views fwiw). I dunno, I loved the kids aren't alright most even at the time so that feels right to me but ymmv.

Look at this shit gtfoh with say it ain't so
