Why would they make the deal if Kawhi didn’t know about it? What’s the point of paying uncle Dennis, this doesn’t make any sense

It’s only going to work like that if Ballmer isn’t punished at all. Like Mark Cuban said over and over, it’s all about risk/reward. There is no morality with these guys, if there isn’t a risk of punishment they will cheat all they can

It’s an important step on the journey. It would be very irresponsible to sacrifice a spot in champions league to win a League Cup, for example

Finishing top four is objectively more important to long term success than any particular trophy, though (excepting trophies that also get you into champions league)

Having opinions and policies that the general public disagrees with has never been a problem for republicans. Why can’t democrats just do whatever the republicans do to get people to ignore policies?

I think you need to consider the possibility that he is writing in bad faith

That’s pretty wild, while I think Biden was not up to being president, it’s insane to think the best way to win is running a black Asian woman against an invalid white guy in America. I guess that’s how we ended up where we are

Did the people who pushed out Biden really care about winning? Did they actually think a Black/asian woman had a better chance than Biden? I always thought they just didn’t want to elect someone they didn’t think was up to the job anymore

The “between the hands” clause only makes sense if there is contact with the ball, right? Meaning, if he has it in his hands it’s in control, even if he isn’t squeezing it like an American football player

I’ve always wondered about “touches”. If you pass the ball to me and I take one touch to settle it, and one touch to pass it on, that’s just one “touch” (statistically) right?

If you are ever going to watch a clip of Jerry jones make it this one

Ah I see it now, I think I missed that part the first time I read it since it was like 40 paragraphs into the story. I have a question about the dns tunneling — were the NLRB servers doing the dns requests, or were requests coming in to NLRB dns servers? I can’t tell from the article

The NPR article doesn’t mention that the logins from Russian IPs were using the new DOGE credentials. Is that actually what happened? That is the shocking part

There is some nuance but the Bobs are definitely clowns. When the answer is “not much really, I show up late and goof off all day” they take that as a reason to promote that employee!

I’m expecting the “this loss will fuel his competitiveness” take instead

Isn’t it more 1930?

Putting Luka, who has been to one finals, above Kobe, who won five of them, is ridiculous at this point

The problem is that RFK is still in charge so we know which way any reforms would go

I can’t tell if you are trolling or not. You don’t think the Thiels and Musks of the world wouldn’t use their infinite wealth to shut down even more dissent?

That’s like saying US health care needs reform so letting RFK Jr reform it is obviously good

I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that my trump supporting family members would read this and say, good, what do I care about people in Africa Not “I don’t care”, but they would be actually happy about this

That’s my third favorite Star Wars movie though

The loser of the political power struggle deliberately put that weakness into the Death Star and then made sure his daughter knew about it, it was sabotage all along

Kinda ironic that a blog post about windows annoyances has an extraneous scroll progress bar, and a bottom bar that disappears and reappears constantly as you scroll

Each team should get one timeout. Per season. One timeout is plenty. They could trade the timeout too, “jimmy butler hs been traded to the Pacers for their 2026 first round pick and the pacers 2027 timeout”

That’s exactly what I was thinking. Doesn’t make sense to sell
If the player has told Brighton that he won’t move to saudi

“How can the 18-year-old have intended that? “ why mention his age at all? Clearly the author thinks being young and out of control is an excuse? Fwiw I didn’t think it should be red either but only because the contact was so low on leg and didn’t look intentional

“How can it be serious foul play on the edge of Wolves' box?” Literally first point in argument. Serious foul play can happen anywhere

Those are extremely weak arguments. “How can foul play happen 70 yards from goal”, as if goal proximity has anything to do with foul play? And “how can it be foul play when he’s only 18”, seriously?

They could just swap
