Let me see if I've got the Paramount deal correct: A company worth $15b with about $15b in debt is spending $110b to buy a competitor which will leave them with $79b in debt AND they're paying another competitor (Netflix) $2b for the privilege?
Look how happy this mf’er is 😂
Eh I think more importantly regular folks don’t really give a shit about political theater and are voting on 1-2 issues. Vast majority didn’t pay attention and won’t know anything about this “maneuver”.
I started listening to Blowback based on one of your skeets and going thru season 2 has been a real eye opener. A completely ridiculous position the U.S has taken towards that country. Like a stalker ex in international relations.
I did the same thing, watched every season from the beginning thru 48 in a little over a year. Didn’t go insane but was a little crazy over not being able to remember a lot of the specifics once they started blurring together.
Yep. Also true, almost half of Americans do not have 3 months of savings and are unable to finance normal expenditures in the absence of a missed paycheck.
Right. Saying “most” when it’s 51-52% is pretty fun phrasing.
Biggest issue with his stance is that it completely disregards the league’s TV deals and viewership. That’s where the big money is, right? If people don’t care to watch and they take a dent there, everyone loses.
Hmm might have to check that out. Could maybe put it in my garage or upstairs
Ok I read article! That’s awesome! I have a wheel that’s been sitting here gathering dust for years. The space to set it up isn’t main hurdle - setting up and taking down every session is awful. Also have the Xbox compatible Logitech one, so can’t do GT7.
Are you into sim racing?
This applies to pretty much every winter Olympic sport other than hockey. More people play pickleball at the downtown Chicago courts on a Thursday evening than participate in curling in our entire country.
no Bulls eh?
Fun with stocks: I bought BYD shares in mid-2025 and since then it’s gone down around 20% while Tesla shares (who’d I don’t own) have gone up 25%.
Maybe shrink the graphic for Kid Rock so it doesn’t look like they are of equal weight. Proportional representation if you will.
As a stats guy you’re well aware that the playoffs are more subject to randomness. How about you provide the stats on teams that make up the playoffs year over year instead?
I’d bet Bezos thought declining readership under Biden would turn around under Trump. Turns out, people hate him and won’t pay for paywalls he puts up. That’s not changing.
Right. They waited this long and got the poo poo platter, with even less hope than before. Incredible stuff, only rivaled by Sacramento in stupidity.
He should push for a trade and they should appease him.
Sad stuff about the Washington Post layoffs. It’s almost certainly due to declining readership over the past couple years as Jeff Bezos truly revealed himself as one of the worst billionaires. Looking forward to whoever reports that story out for the @nytimes.com
Vuc is bad, he’s a net negative. But maybe they can paper over him and use his shooting in small doses to replace what they lost in Horford. Defense, oh there’s none of that.
Every year!
Huh weird can’t imagine anything that would have given it away
This went massively viral a couple weeks ago. Glad they caught up.
TACO
Most entertaining movie of 2025
Nah. Most of the media absolutely likes Trump for the clicks and ratings. Their jobs depend on reader engagement and it’s just not there under Democratic leadership. The constant stream of scandalous behavior is propping up much of the industry.
I’d play it but your paywall has forced all my friends off the platform 😢
Funny because this is the exact headline Apple News showed me this morning
Maine bc they voted against him. Hell, possibly California.
