Sorta shit a manager says when the team goes 1 for 25 with RISP

Might be watching too much baseball... Just asked my partner if she "pitched a shutout with that bag of popcorn last night"

what could possibly go wrong ?

NL Best getting it done! Get rekt Barves

This week I spoke to Luke Beveridge, Adam Kingsley and James Ives about winning the ball and how that relates to winning football games.

And no that is not what happens. Disengagement with the major political parties is not disengagement with politics.

This week in football - round 7 2025.

This is our biggest issue. A lot going on, across a lot of styles.

These Democrats Seem To Understand The Situation Americans now live under competitive authoritarianism. Only a handful of elected Democrats are acting accordingly.

Big week for me legally releasing some of the hate in my heart ☺️ www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

from the Drake complaint against UMG over Not Like Us 10. UMG's campaign was successful. The Recording cloaks cleverly dangerous lyrics behind a catchy beat and inviting hook. Capitalizing on these attributes, UMG used every tool at..." [screencap cuts off]

your honor, while plaintiffs are horrified at the slanderous lyrics, we concede that it is, legally, a banger

We're going streaking!

Is that maybe due to the demographics of who's watching? My understanding is cricket is more broadly enjoyed in Australia than England, perhaps the Fox coverage reflects that. I find it's generally fine FWIW. Also if you think the coverage you saw is bad you should see what they put on free-to-air.

If the Aussies lose another wicket I'm getting a drink #AUSvIND

You're a knowledgeable cricket follower and you have to have it explained to you that a batter is backing away at times to clear space for their arms to swing through the ball? The bigger question mark is whether he can play straight for any length of time

They said it was an awful slog. It's not a predictor of future outs unless every Aussie player loses their minds. What else is there to say?

I just watched a biomechanical analysis of the out-shot, are we watching the same feed?

Silly from Konstas. Aussies off to a great start and the Indians are bowling four-balls on the reg #AUSvIND

I dunno if a bit of chat changes the probability of Bumrah getting Uzzie nicking out

Aged well lol

Konstas xCHAT is already elite #AUSvIND

I wish to retract my previous post regarding Pant/ India. You do not, under any circumstances, "gotta hand it to em" #AUSvIND

India/ Pant showing some real grit here. Gotta hand it to em #AUSvIND

Facing Starc right now is an all-time shit time. Hard pass #AUSvIND

If this was a mark, that was a catch. #robbed #AUSvIND

Superb shoot-yourself-in-the-footery from the Aussies there #AUSvIND
