    This almost seems impossible.

    Two reasons to avoid Stevenson: it's PPR, and RBs don't have as much long-term value because running backs. That said, all I'm certain of is that Josh Jacobs is not the right answer. Any of the others are debatable, and might just depend on how this particular league tends to draft.

    Played in my first classical tournament in over 14 years this weekend. Mostly played like garbage, 3/5 in an U1800 section when I'm 2100 rapid on chess.com isn't what I was aiming for. But horsefeathers got wild before my 4th round match. Sitting and daydreaming before my game with a 12 year old girl, and I notice the guy next to me and his pen. It's all white, and says nothing but "power" in blue text. "You're not worried about using that?" "Huh?" "Just seems racist." "What?!" "Well, you know, white power?" "OH Jesus Christ!!! I don't need this horsefeathers horsefeathers!!" "....it was just an observation." He bitches about it for a few more minutes and I choose to ignore him. His entire game he's slamming pieces around and writing angrily with his racist pen, and then TWO HOURS later he resigns, snaps the pen in two, spikes it on my board, and starts cursing at me again for "calling him a racist." I tell him he should be embarrassed and to leave. Which he did, cursing all the way out. Chess: serious business.

    Yeah, before the match started, I was leaning Nepo, but the games up to that point were just so wild, with neither player willing to back down from going on the attack and pressing their opponent. It came down to nerves, and neither of them seemed to be able to control them completely.

    Seems wild and unhinged.

    He reconsidered because Denver knows how to party.

    This current match was always an interesting clash of styles, but I don't think anyone dreamed it would be this action-packed. No clue how this one finishes up.

    Just a slightly better, commented version of the tree falling. Somehow no one was hurt.
  14. JudasIscariotTheBird
    Oh I see. There are hidden threads for old timers?! That doesn't seem ideal.
  15. JudasIscariotTheBird
    Without going through every new thread and section in this place, where am I supposed to go to see Sofa tell us that nothing will come of the indictment? Also, what is required to be considered old-timey?

    Heh. Pretty fun. https://www.mlb.com/world-baseball-classic/news/shohei-ohtani-strikes-out-against-electrician-in-world-baseball-classic?partnerId=zh-20230312-849630-mlb-1-A&qid=1026&utm_id=zh-20230312-849630-mlb-1-A&bt_ee=cvF%2BbsPblXq3YSeUjCZV9dlqldXGtknKYx1HiUpLbXai0H6vdypzj0NV%2Bb9y4XUZ&bt_ts=1678637161404

    ...wow

    He's the luckiest guy to ever manage in baseball. Last year he didn't want Willson because...checks notes...he might play too hard for his next contract. If I wanted to criticize Dusty, there's a lot of other places I'd start besides the year he won the World Series. Yeah, but that statement from Dusty was the most Dusty thing I've heard him say...apart from all the whole leaderoff hitter and fishing stuff.

    I'm obviously not as informed as the rest of you but isn't Wrigley particularly brutal on hitters in April? Would it be expected for Mancini to struggle successfully elevating the ball early only to see those balls leave the park later in the season? Yeah, what those charts don't show is the effect of wind and weather, which is more significant at Wrigley than most places, but obviously, in general, the new dimentions are going to help Mancini relative to other players.

    ...that's fucked up
  21. JudasIscariotTheBird
    Is he worth 5/$250 million and two 1st Round picks? Seems to be injury prone the last few years. And with the running he does, I only seem him getting injured more often. You're just hoping the Jets bail out GB from the Rodgers end of career mushroomstravaganza with a flood of picks and other assets
  22. JudasIscariotTheBird
    That's one thing. Another thing is complaining on Twitter when people catch you card counting.

    I'm waiting for a plane and don't have much to do, and I noticed a guy was logged in a few moments ago that I'd never seen before. He only made 4 posts in the semi-recent past, so I just went and checked them out. Warning: amazing hot-takes forthcoming, and not from the guy I didn't recognize. viewtopic.php?f=44&t=1820&p=241177#p241177

    If we really are planning on increasing traffic and attempting to become relevant in some minor way, I'd only suggest that we have an easily-noticable, obviously antagonistic sub forum for Ricketts-bashing-discussions on the reworked site.

    Cool. I guess this means I won't be (tied for) the worst poster here, soon?
