I’d understand arguments for flipping 1-2 or 3-4, but anything outside of that seems completely wrong.

Experienced this just the other day. Took my son to viola lesson and had 30 min to kill, so we just hit a nearby record store and browsed. Group of people chatting the entire time.

Probably has to do with constituencies. Franken’s supporters care about stuff like sexual harassment. Cuomo supporters dont.

There used to be an amazing New Mexican restaurant called Zia on Armitage near Clark. Real deal green chiles, but it closed years ago.

Every nu metal band is like a loose nuke, and we don’t want the smoking gun to be a mosh pit crowd.

Thanks! They’re actually pretty easy, too. It’s just your favorite pancake batter. Make ahead a simple syrup of brown sugar (2pt sugar/1pt water) and a couple tsp cinn. (The syrup needs to be cold or it will run all over). Before you flip the first side, use a squeeze bottle to make the spiral.

Don’t know if it will be Bennett, but it’s going to be someone like this to cover for the lack of even a half-asses attempt to get Marner or Ehlers.

Gently scrub with a little baking soda and water, then again with a little white vinegar.

What they really mean is they want to talk and act like the villagers in Blazing Saddles.

As many wellness influencers will tell you, the best and most healthy way to live is like a medieval peasant who died before 30.

Sucks it’s not Mike Love.

He had his strengths, but this trade was baffling. They were falling out of it fast and were sellers, and maybe they didn’t want to extend him into his mid 30s, but they should have landed better for a guy on pace for 5 WAR.

It was a bad trade.

I guess there is no urgency to it, but by the end of July, Rojas is gone because he’s started playing well enough to get traded, or because the Sox cut him loose because Baldwin deserves another look with that playing time.
comment in response to
post
Baldwin is young and still has potential. Even if it’s just a younger version of Rojas, the Sox need to develop guys like that, too. Plus I think Baldwin has been put in a bad spot, asked to play a less familiar position in LF, making his value look worse.

Happens with press releases from CPD all the time.

There’s a lot of good reporters there, but John Kass was in Mike Royko’s spot for a couple decades, so yeah, the op-eds are mostly trash. Got worse each wave of retirements and newsroom buyouts.

Did that once when I cut my hair to donate. Not great unless you like long-in-the-front, short-in-the-back. Fun in the moment, though.

Another way to look at the chart, teams that did new QB contracts look like big spenders, teams getting out of big QB contracts look cheap because that’s how the cash payments look because so much of it is in bonus money.
comment in response to
post
Right, that’s what I mean. Their spending isn’t low because they’re cheap. They’ve just already spent the money because they had a window where they went for it.
comment in response to
post
Is this a case of the Rams being cheap, or is their cash spending lower because they’ve had tons of dead cap during this period? Besides attrition, they also had to eat the Goff bonus money when they swapped him out for Stafford (who has void years on his contract to let them spend more).

He sucked worse back then when he was a shill for the Iraq War.

His page 2 column after 9/11 stands as one of the most clear-eyed contemporaneous looks at what US madness and its misadventures in Afghanistan and Iraq would be.

As a local fan I treat it like I do my gym. I don’t care if there are fancier. It’s got everything I need. Sox have good views of the game, bathrooms, good food, parking lots if you want to do some tailgating. Maybe just better maintenance and add some water bottle filling stations.

Jerry could have probably gotten that money, too, if his demands didn’t balloon so rapidly. The city really wants that 78 developed and there’s TIF dollars already set aside, but the Sox said hey, we want another billion or two.

Unless Kinzinger has shifted on a lot of his policy positions and I’m not aware of it, that’s still a hard pass for me.
