i thought maybe the "phantoms" from Remake were going to be the phantoms from the movie, if we're being honest.

actually "tilly norwood" looks alarmingly like "aki ross"

those who do not remember the marketing campaign from 2001's "Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within" are doomed to repeat it.

Konnor Griffin’s 3 home runs are the most by a teenager in a single MLB Spring Training in at least the last 20 years

Pirates shortstop Konnor Griffin is MLB’s top prospect. So far in spring, he’s lived up to the hype At only 19 years old and with just 21 games of experience above Class A, Griffin is threatening to make the Pirates' Opening Day roster.

Another unicorn? Pirates shortstop Konnor Griffin is MLB’s top prospect. So far in spring, he’s lived up to the hype. www.nytimes.com/athletic/707...

i mean i guess it was pre-wikipedia and information moved very differently, but still

it's very funny that his story is, "i watched a movie where a character explicitly states she looked up an encyclopedia entry about the black mamba and reads it and i thought, 'oh shit i gotta look this up.'"

"somebody's going to get killed because somebody's going to throw a snake one day," is ALSO one of the funniest things anyone's ever written

Kobe Bryant and the secret history of the black mamba In late 2002, Nike began creating a global campaign featuring the black mamba -- and presented it to an NBA superstar. That star was not Kobe Bryant.

claiming that a black mamba appearing in kill bill vol 2 was an unforseeable cosmic twist of fate is one of the funniest things anyone has ever written

i mean i was at the brandon crawford game and i still remember how cool just being out there before the game was, despite everyone being a little more worried (due to the edinson volquez of it all)

the pirates are gonna lose two playoff games over the next three years that leave me absolutely despondent and then disappear for another decade or more. and still, i'm excited.

you cannot make me learn about the state of the union, i'll be over here watching konnor griffin mash taters over the fake green monster

it's totally wild to me that ben cherington did what he did between being hired in 2019 and the 2023 draft and then went out and picked paul skenes and konnor griffin in back to back years

i feel, like, 70% sure that i read a post somewhere about how that gap is getting bigger since they bowdlerized the minors

i have nothing against alika williams and since he plays shorstop well i actually suspect i will be shocked to learn he's still in the league five years from now when that event inevitably occurs, i just really did not expect him to still be in bradenton this year

alika williams is the guy that just keeps showing up because they forgot to cc him on the e-mail that fired everyone and no one has the heart to tell him what's happening

we did it, we got "divulge the answer to your security questions" style memetic posts here on bsky. and they say this site doesn't have the juice.

just because you're watching yohan ramirez right now and you'll see him in a pirate uniform in august does not mean he won't pass through four organizations between now and then

They sent Konnor Griffin to the road game on a split squad day? Incredible fan relations.

3-on-3 overtime for the olympics is fine, it will be exciting and it will end and it's better than a shootout

Poor Crosby is watching on some monitor in the trainer's room while McDavid and Celebrini blow breakaways and MacKinnon misses an empty net the size of the Great Wall of China. He's got to be the sickest man in Milan
