They're calling it the 0/5ths Compromise.

Can't wait for their next genius idea:

Aluminum foil flavor! Dare your friends with fillings to try these!

How'd that work out for the smaller market team?

Time heals all wounds. My family watched the Irsays drive away in Mayflower trucks. Swore off the NFL. Started watching the CFL.

Everything they own is black and purple now.

Huh? The WNBA chooses cities and you think asking them to put a team in Boston when there's one in Uncasville will go anywhere?

Finding the True Border Between Yankee and Red Sox Nation Using Facebook Data by Ben Blatt A version of this post can be read in the Wall Street Journal here. Like all sports rivalries, picking a side in the Red Sox-Yankee rivalry is almost entirely geographic. Everyone know…

Based on FB ad data in 2012, it's the river with Sox invading the far NW corner.

The Sun were east of the Connecticut River. CT Sox fans know what's up.

If you're willing to go to the Liberty, you must live in Greenwich.

How could Pagliuca fuck this up this badly without first going to the league if that's how they operate? Did he think going public first would force their hands?

How can the WNBA be this dense? The team would stay fairly local to its current fans and reach a MUCH bigger sports fandom in Titletown.

Don, Jerry, Lenny and Denis and a fun flashback for Red Sox Nation

In booth interviews early in the game are pretty common.

I loved when Lenny Clarke and Denis Leary were in the booth a few years ago..

I always love replacing Trump with other potential people and thinking about the insanity and fallout.

Is there a smart way to cede power to...

...Kamala Harris?
...Joe Biden?
...Bernie Sanders?
...AOC?
...Ted Cruz?
...Ben Carson?
...Ross Perot?

Getting new voices, let alone all female ones, in the Sox NESN broadcast is nice.

Buenos noches, amigas!

Your thread suggests you didn't read the entire article before posting.

How is intentionally altering user agents and altering ASN/source IPs as a means of getting around a WAF anything other than culpable behavior?

They are intentionally attempting to avoid being blocked.

a police officer on a motorcycle is talking to a group of people on the street . Alt: Uhura and Chekov asking a motorcycle cop in San Francisco how to get to the naval base in Alameda to see the nuclear vessels from "Star Trek 4: The Voyage Home"

I heard "Wessels. Nuclear Wessels."

Trump says undocumented immigrants do farm work "naturally" because "they don't get a bad back."

Mississippi's Declaration of Secession similarly said slavery must be protected because "by an impervious law of nature, none but the black race can bear exposure to the tropical sun."

What fucking year is it??? 1825???

This is some shit you'd hear leave the lips of some asshole plantation owner who justifies owning Black slaves because "they do the work 'naturally'".

Jesus Fucking Christ!

Walkoff HR in extras for the win.

Is it not weird that Pagliuca would buy the team without having a feel for whether the league would let him move it first?

I feel like that's political groundwork that just needs to be done before you throw $300M+ around, no?

The board of the farmers market should call his behavior disruptive and give him their own trespass warning. Then the cops can easily toss him if he shows up again.

A Google search result for "places like medieval times near me". The AI overview says "For a "Medieval Times" experience in or near Boston, consider checking out The Elephant & Castle Restaurant & Pub for a British-themed pub and restaurant with a medieval-ish vibe."

The chances are non-zero that the "woke mob" that put Nazi connotations on that clothing ad are false flag conservative accounts.

Good Pierogi Private dining company on Martha's Vineyard and a traveling Eastern European pop up.

Looks like it is Krem Miskevich of Good Pierogi www.goodpierogi.com

Sadly, only selling on the Vineyard for the summers.

I need the name of this pierogi vendor. If they sell anywhere else in MA, I'm there.

"New reporting suggests this child in Gaza wouldn't have died yesterday if not for their pre-existing health conditions. Doctors predict the child would have died in another week or two if perfectly healthy...except for the extreme starvation. More as details emerge."

I'm glad he's hitting dingers because watching him run the bases the other night in Fenway made ME feel injured.

Hi, I'm a scientist in a film. You can clearly tell by my glasses and lab coat. I'm now going to use a few words you recognize and some you don't, even though they are only tangentially relevant to the topic at hand. Now that I have provided essential exposition I will disappear from relevance.
