The worst-timed stat post in Bluesky history ... so far ... 😇

In the world today, I think all media becomes an echo chamber over time.
It's simply a matter of what echo chamber you chose to align yourself with.
Bluesky does just fine for me in this regard.

Oh, she was deep into the third can before she called in her husband. She thought there was a mistake and that the chicken was just missing and she got defective cans.
We all wound up ordering pizza. 😂

Oh, we hosted a family from Saudi Arabia back in the day. The wife of that family wanted to cook us a dinner in appreciation ... she bought six cans of Crisco thinking that there was fried chicken in the cans.
However, no matter how deep she dug into the cans, there was no chicken to be found ...

Think of it this way, your Braves/Razorback fandom has made you a stronger person, able to handle the other things in life that would otherwise break you.
If you can survive last night's 9th inning, and the Braves just not hitting, that jerk in the gym, or at work or wherever has no power over you.

Jalen Hurts is NOT a Top 5 QB in the NFL! (This is called engagement farming ...)
... he's Top 3. (This is what is colloquially known as a fact ...)

I think it's because they refuse to acknowledge Bluesky exists.
But, I like your reason too.

I love the archtypes, but I'm not sure how flexible they will be within a pod.
I foresee much of my future wishing I had drafted Orzov Aristocrats when I start off fighting over Boros Equipment and winding up with a three-color pile.
Of course, the correct play all along was to go Izzet Spells ...

I wonder how many people are thinking of legally changing their name to Coffee right now ...

I'm low-keyed convinced that the Braves are cursed until they recognize Bluesky social media as an official outlet.
The taint of X is strong with our franchise right now ...

It's more an issue on decks with a narrow focus, and control decks that have to play more diverse answers. Sometimes, the control side just doesn't lineup well.
But, Standstill is a heck of a card that finds a lot of answers a lot of the time! ;-)

The control deck doesn't always win those long games.
In Premodern, one of my favorite matchups is Dreadnaught/Tide vs. U/W control.
On the Dreadnaught side, the key is to hold the right cards to push through over two turns. Quality is better than quantity, and control often relies on quantity.

This team is just slightly off. It's not one thing, it's everything.
The hitters aren't consistent. The pitching isn't either.
I think the issue is AA wants to give the coaching staff time to fix it ... and there's not enough time.
We miss Wash so much, and Snit without Wash isn't good enough.

Mina, you were so hesitant to say anything about the Falcons in the last third of the segment. Lots of pauses, like you were trying to say something nice ... but, just couldn't find the words ... or the confidence. And ... that expression at the very end?
Welcome to the Atlanta Falcons' experience!

It's a Mike Tomlin challenge from the Steelers' front office.
Winning record with Old Ben: ✔️
Winning record with Rudolph: ✔️
Winning record with Fields AND DangerRuss: ✔️
Damn, that's impressive.
Now, do it with Aaron Rodgers.
HINT: This will be the move that finally breaks the streak. 🤮

Last I heard, the motion was split 16-16. It's going to take more than a little change to get 8 of those 16 to change their votes.
I'm just curious as to what's in it for those other teams. Or, who is strongarming them? Is it the Commissioner? Agents? Ownership?
This makes no sense.

1. No safety data has been presented other than future "potential" injuries by the Tush Push.
2. If you're going to do this, there needs to be a cooresponding rule that defenses can only have four players within three yards of the line of scrimmage. Fair is fair.
3. Cry more, Packers.

I have to keep asking myself ... Did we trade the next decade of potential success for the one title in 2021?
I mean, if we did, I'm good with that ... I just wish I had let future me know in advance so that days like this didn't frustrate me so much.

Just one deck in the top 10 of that Standard metagame chart has Green cards in it at all ... and it's Domain.
So, I'd posit that Green is already erased in the format as it is now.

Oh, one of the folks where I work got LED lights put into their teeth ... one red, one green ... and they just alternate flashing.

Talking about warping the metagame ... whoa. And I don't mean that in a bad way. Think about how many decks would be adjusting their mana bases if Price of Progress were Modern-legal ... and play patterns would change FAST!
Of course, it would hose Blood Moon ... so there is that downside. 🤣

Oh, this shouldn't stop them for putting out new jerseys now, next year or both.
I'm in favor of both. I suddenly feel the need to replace that Cousins #18 jersey I bought last year ...

AAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH! And I had just gotten back around to liking them again.
@vancityreynolds.bsky.social did me wrong here.

1. Good on Shadeur for his reaction - basically saying everyone does something stupid every so often, and he forgives the kid. 😇
2. I fear this means we may lose Coach Ulbrich to the DoD, as his approach to digital security matches Pete Hegseth's, and he needs a defensive coordinator right now. 🤣
