Texas Rangers Offseason 2023-2024
Garver agrees on a contract with Mariners. Boo. I was hoping we'd keep him. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/39179989/sources-mitch-garver-mariners-reach-2-year-24m-deal

Texas Basketball 2023-24
Yes, yes, my rant was clearly unprovoked. I have no defense. I am forced to completely lose my shit by resorting to hyperbole and complete fabrication because your perspective is unassailable. I mean you have facts and years of data. What else can I do? You have bested me in every way. I try to defend myself, but before I can even type a single response, there are 73 more posts from you presenting perfect argument after perfect argument. I know when I'm beat. I think I'll just go lie in bed and stare at the Rodney Terry poster on my ceiling.

I thought he was better in Dead Poet's Society than Explorers, but that doesn't really discredit your point.

What's left to wait and see is how the season actually goes.

Texas Basketball 2023-24
Two things. 1. This forum is not full of Rodney Terry zealots. Taking a "wait and see" approach is not the same thing. 2. The games that count are played on the court, not a computer. Pomeroy does a great job, but trusting a #37 ranking at this point in the season isn't much better than trusting a #16 before any games are played.

Yep. Wout did not appear to be in top form in last year's Tour. I hope getting to be the team lead motivates him.

Survivor 45
It was a good season overall with a lot of skilled players who came to play and no obvious villain(s). Dee deserved to win, but certainly owes Katurah a big thank you. I don't necessarily think Julie wins if Katurah votes out Dee. In that scenario, there is a decent chance that the final 3 are Katurah, Jake, and Austin, as no one would have wanted to take Julie to the end. Julie might have won the final elimination challenge, but we'll never know. Speaking of the elimination challenge, were the heights and spaces adjusted for leg length and foot size? It seemed like one of those challenges that should be adjusted for body size. Kendra voted for Austin because she has the hots for him. It's no more complicated than that. I agree with @Pokoloco that Austin lost the second he told Dee that Julie was the target. He still would have had to get rid of Drew himself, but at least he would have had a path to win. I also agree that Dee admitting that she told Julie helped her much more than it hurt her. Not breaking up Dee and Austin as soon as they became a thing doomed everyone not named Dee. Prevailing wisdom suggests that Showmances are best avoided if you want to win, but Dee and Amber would disagree.

I'm not sure if that fully covers all reparations that they owe us, but it's close.

2024 Pro Cycling Season
This likely belongs in the unpopular opinions thread, but I like Jonas. His style isn't as flashy as the other top riders, and neither is his personality, but I'm wired the same way, so I can identify with him.

Love them or hate them, you have to admire how they manage their team.

I was going to suggest that @Knoxtnhorn rename the old TdF thread so we could keep that rolling, but this works. To answer your question, yes, Pog can win the double, but I do not think he will. Barring injury, I expect Visma/Vingegaard to again win the Tour. I do like Pog for the Giro, but weird shit often happens in Italy, so we'll have to fuck around and find out. It looks like Visma may give van Aert some leadership leash at the Giro, so that will be fun if it actually happens. I will be curious to see whether Bora improves enough to seriously support Roglič, and of course the same with Quick Step and Evenepoel. There is more top end talent than ever. It's a good time to be a cycling fan.

margot robbie is "barbie" - july 2023
I caught it last night, and this was my thought as well. It had some really good moments, but dragged in several places. Much of the social commentary felt forced and fell a bit flat. It's worth a watch if you can't find anything else that appeals to you, but I would not consider it "must see" cinema.

It is okay to like both Friends and Seinfeld. I'm not sure why the discussion tends to be so polarizing, or why one has to be declared better than the other. The main reason that they get compared is because they were aired back-to-back for years, during NBC's "must see TV" years. If they existed years apart or were on different networks, I doubt they'd be discussed in the same breath. Most people who watched one likely watched the other. I think both would have been successful without the other, but they absolutely benefited from being shown consecutively.- The Amazing Race 35
This pretty much sums it up for me. I thought it was a bit unfair to have such a physically demanding task (trapeze) that would clearly be much more difficult for some teams, but Greg and John didn't really have any weaknesses, so they were going to be difficult to beat no matter what.- Texas Basketball 2023-24
