I would bet that all of those complaints were made about the Bush administration after Katrina hit New Orleans. Remember, "George Bush doesn't care about Black people"? Pepperidge Farm remembers. The government is inefficient and sh*tty regardless of whether a Democrats or Republican is i...

Saw another fun story about some small town MAGA mayor in WI that took a picture of himself moving a ballot box to do a social media post. And who is now under investigation for election interference / tampering with election documents.

Not sure how the falcons were 1 play away from winning the Steelers game.

I think it’s important for Kamala and Walz to be held up to scrutiny, even by their own supporters, otherwise it gives Republicans an “out” or whataboutism. Whether it’s fair or not is irrelevant because obviously what Trump and Vance lie about is worse, but Dems excusing away “bad but not as bad” ...

Are you concerned that you might have high expectations for Pitt football right now?

I have one post on that page and it’s about Lonnie smith and Charlie Hayes. I am a negative war contributor I skimmed through the thread while I was on my way home from the t. You sang the praises of management for their pitching philosophy and also touted a relatively young Harold Ramirez. 2/2

Are cutch and Marte the last two active players from that game?

Did they still have Justin Wilson?

Was talking to a woman with some peripheral knowledge of the Elon deal (works in credit risk at one of the participating banks) in relation to that WSJ article some time back. Gist of the story, the note has been written down, but Elon still making the debt service payments as of now, but all those ...

The last time a pitcher on a losing team won the Cy Young was in 2012. Combine that was the assumption that he will come in 2nd for ROY this year, which means he's out of here in 2029. You assert that they're going to have multiple winning seasons in the span of 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029? The only tim...

They’ve had trouble drafting/developing for years. What does another GM get you that you can trust would actually develop well within the system? I feel like if they’re can’t miss guys, they do OK, but have the Pirates actually raised a position player through the system, and has that player been i...

Nothing is happening in Latin America, other than their DR academy. Has this regime developed any LA players? Luis Ortiz maybe? It’s an organizational issue with developing hitters. They have made some high profile signings, but that doesn’t matter if you’re judging hitters exclusively on swing sel...

Which is why I think they need to dump cherington. I’d say he’s added value with some draft selections (Jared jones and probably chandler the biggest wins - picking skenes at #1 can’t be something you reward a gm for). But the inability to find remotely competent players to fill out the roster is un...

But in the pirates’ case, it’s having fewer worthless and negative worth players.

Daniel’s out for the season, just a brutal stretch of injuries for the offensive line.

For funsies, lets see what optimism gets you: 83-79 I think the division is bad. Cardinals are old, brewers are retooling, and the reds will crumble facing expectations. Cubs will run away with first place. But pirates compete with the other teams. And was right about the Cardinals and the Reds, an...

Not going to win many games where the defense doesn't show up in the first quarter (and at all on the first drive). So Colts D comes out humming against a beleaguered offensive line that gets the gift penalty and still does nothing. Cool to see that Fields gave them a chance, but still very discoura...

I appreciate the effort here

Pirates' season is mercifully over. Somehow the most needling troll in the thread was on the dot with the W/L prediction to twist the knife one final time. Dodint, BC, and Nutting, try as they might, cannot fully absolve my optimism for next year, but it's 100% the "show me phase". Certain...

Let’s go Buffalo, keep the whole division at 1-3 plz

3/4 on the road to start is tough, they came out flat and didn’t get in to the game till too late.

Looks like Steelers are caught sniffing their own farts this week
