his debut was in the one IPL season I ever actually watched and I remember him bowling this insane inswinger to Kohli. I decided I would make a point of keeping tabs on him from then on. which turned out to be much easier than I thought

made this point many times before but Gary Rajsich was genuinely excellent at his job and Elias replacing him with a spreadsheet sorted descending by spin rate / exit velo was an early sign that he was not what he pretended to be

Hi Andy - any word on when the O’s might start looking at a change at GM? We can’t take Elias wasting another year of Adley and Gunnar (especially since it’s clear he has no intentions of extending them)

mike elias is only agreeing to 2 for anything if the second is a team option

if we want to keep Adley and Gunnar around then Elias needs to go sooner rather than later

this, from someone who would write “the semblance of due process that is the foundation of our constitutional order,” is truly incredible

my fascism professor made a pretty compelling case that the KKK was the first fascist movement

yes, if this were OOTP it would make a lot of sense. but baseball is so much more than that. and the last time I was at Oriole Park with my father, the Orioles’ starting CF (Keon Broxton) and LF (Stevie Wilkerson) went a combined 0-for-7 with six strikeouts. that’s what we let Adam Jones walk for

at some point we have to question whether the 6 weeks every year where Jorge Mateo looks like a superstar are worth the 4.5 months where he looks like Richie Martin

the first thing Elias did as GM was to push Adam Jones out the door after he used his 10-5 rights to veto a trade to a contender because he wanted to stay in Baltimore. so instead of a franchise icon winding down his career, we got Stevie Wilkerson as our starting center fielder

$300m annually divided by $2400 ($200 monthly times 12 months) equals 125,000 subscribers

is my math wrong or does that mean there’s a little over 100k subscribers to that $200/month Pro tier

his performance in the high school reunion episode is an absolute tour de force. just now I remembered his delivery of “call an ambulance!” at the end of the episode and I actually laughed out loud

i’m 6’3 and my partner is 5’2. it’s a good relationship on the whole but I can’t lie, it would be nice if she were taller

their s/t is maybe the best ever artistic distillation of how it feels to be an uncool teenager. certainly the best (that I can think of right now) to ever achieve anything approaching mainstream success
