My brother-in-law’s family fled Iran for Israel! Like… what nonsense this person is spewing

He’s going to be very, very, very good. Might be Lou Whitaker-caliber.

Yeah, food quality vs menu spelling is inversely correlated to how hoity-toity the restaurant is

Interesting zebras note from #CBJ game at MSG. After Bowness/Werenski complained about a lack of power plays, the refs in NYC were Wes McCauley/Morgan MacPhee.

MacPhee worked the Jackets' first game back from the break, 4-2 loss in Boston (1 PP); McCauley worked Sat OTL to the Isles (0 PP).

Even if Platner isn’t an antisemite (he absolutely is), if your judgement is so fucking bad that you REGULARLY do an antisemitic whoopsie because it has never occurred to you to just fucking look something up then you ARE NOT FIT FOR OFFICE.

When do you think you’ll drop the special blends? Are you gonna do your comparisons to other systems as you have in the past?

That’s a good one for sure. I’d still have my Weber if the house we bought didnt have a built-in outdoor grill (which it does, and it’s fabulous)

Her loss. This absolutely bangs. When I first had it in Portland, I felt like I had ascended to Valhalla.

You’re asking far too much of a person who’s shown no capacity for either of those actions

Unless the coaches or umps helped someone radio the changes up to the PA booth, we would have to wait multiple innings to find out the exact changes based on who batted when

It is HARD. I’ve worked the scoreboard/PA booth in spring training. At least five sets of binoculars, rosters everywhere, and a team effort
