There's cheap, and then there's too cheap to outbid the Orioles. Same old story from the 2020's Red Sox.

A friendly reminder that Connecticut sucks and that Alaska is underrated.

I think I missed something. Why does DOD want soldiers/military personnel to use AI? Beyond all the ways this is patently awful, I just want to know why this is even a thing, beyond greed and promises made to an AI company. I'd love to know *which* AI company is benefiting from this too.

From now on, my rooting interests for the NBA Cup are:

1. Celtics
2. Teams that play on not red courts

The Grand Canyon of gaps

3. Teams that play on red courts

I honestly can't imagine watching this entire NYK-TOR game. It's like playing on a deconstructed German flag.

i would feel legitimate empathy for these people if they weren't trying to destroy both the planet and society as we know it.

This feels like ragebait designed to make me furious, but the way you raise a newborn without ChatGPT is by providing the kid with your love, attention, time and presence.

In other words, you raise your child by showing them the best of your humanity, which explains why Sam Altman doesn't get it.

lol have you never seen that? It's from "We're the Millers"

Never

it's hard. i pay for 3 newsletters, but i have at least a half dozen more i would pay for in theory. but it's a lot. i don't think you're wrong.

A few more things I noticed!

Jordan Walsh's hustle crashing the offensive glass.

3️⃣ Things I Noticed on League Pass

🔀 Jaylen Brown, switch-hunter
🆙 Deuce McBride, skying high
🏀 Danny Wolf, slingin' it

Brown is ruthlessly hunting switches to generate mismatches and taking advantage of them with what has been a deadly mid-range game.

The Celtics went 162 minutes and 8 seconds of game time without trailing this week.

Led the final 28:47 vs. NYK.

Never trailed @ WAS.

Never trailed vs. LAL.

Led the first 37:21 @ TOR.

(Lost a 23-point lead to the Raptors, but still extended their winning streak to 5 games.)

The Guy Teams Were Willing To Face After Intentionally Walking Barry Bonds has now been elected to the Hall of Fame over Barry Bonds

Just a balancing of the scales from when he shot 28.6% from 3 in the first three games of the season. The only difference is that after those first 3 games, far too many people were busy writing the team's epitaph to notice it was but a blip.

The zone out of the TO was awesome. Even more so because they didn't do it a second time.

And then some!

It should also be noted that the C's had six games in nine days, went 5-1, and their coach didn't even embarrass himself whining about the schedule the way Steve Kerr did a couple weeks ago. Imagine that.

The Celtics have beaten the other five teams in the East's top six at least once.

Looking forward to that!

They do, but it seems unlikely at this point.

when a poor person uses food stamps for a steak or homeless person spends $5 on a beer, it’s seen as proof that all poor people are so bad with money that they shouldn’t be given any, ever, for any reason. $77 billion out the window, and zuck’s legacy as a safe government contract bet is secure.

The Pop-Tarts Bowl is considered first among equals and can pull rank.

Beautiful sentence. God bless America.

Real hate? I can't imagine anyone. Sports hate? Definitely Brian Gionta. Jorge Posada would be high up on the list for sure. The Manning brothers. I feel like Bill Laimbeer has been covered. I'm kind of locking up on more, but there are lots of others from a sports hate perspective.

Michael, let it go. It's OK to admit you were wrong. For instance, I can admit that I was wrong about the Raptors, who I had pegged as 12th in the East this season.

Half of the 12 free throws he got in the first half were ticky tack, especially the three he got right before the first half ended.

Tyler Ford continues to be a blight on the NBA. Tonight, Austin Reaves took 17 free throws. Do you know what Larry Bird's career high FTA was? 17. And the only reason Reaves didn't get more was because Redick pulled his starters halfway through the 4th. Sadly, Tyler Ford couldn't help Reaves play D.

That's because he's the best. Marcus forever.

People will die.
More children will be dead if this policy goes into effect.
Dead children, who would have been alive if not for RFK, Trump, and the Republican party.

RFK must be removed immediately. And we will have to work hard to undo the policy damage he has done.

I appreciate your devotion to this.
