    Ruthless and competent is pulling a collective 3% on the chart. Pretty sure Kid Rock would poll higher if he was included

    What’s the specific policy Trump is responsible is for that caused this runway tech inflation? Tariffs were last year. To me this is just a bi-product of a data center boom. Should Trump ban private companies from building those?

    @mqt Who are the people not currently supported by the existing food and healthcare programs that you think require our tax dollars to support?

    The US can support universal healthcare. It would have enormous negative unintended consequences. Bernie and his ilk focus on the former and ignore the latter.

    But we did do something. There’s an enormous chasm between Midnight Hammer and Epic Fury.

    100%. Glavine had a 80 WAR career. He ranked 9th in ERA and 3rd in innings pitched from 1987 to 2008. When you pitch 21 seasons, ERA is a better reflection of your ability than the predictive metrics.

    You start off strong but by the end completely miss the point (of the criticism of Bernie) “Give more people healthcare or food” sounds like a nice thing except when you account for which people actually receive the healthcare or food. If you are poor in this country, you already don’t go...

    I just don’t see the wisdom of risking the lives of soldiers why they spend weeks (months?) digging through rubble with the daily threat of drone attacks.

    Its not a hill I would die on but in the 7th you are guaranteed a platoon advantage by PH for Yaz. The Braves were neither guaranteed Yaz’s spot would up in the 9th, that he would face a RHP if he did, nor that the game would be close. I don’t necessarily blame Weiss given the lack of quality...

    I admire your ability to conjure the most specific use case of how your tax dollars are being used so you can be happy with how they are spent. But it ignores the vast evidence that shows that’s not how the overwhelming majority of how those funds are used. And there in lies the problem that I...

    GDT 3/28/26: Braves vs Royals - Lopez Officially Back

    The individual decisions were fine in the context of it being the beginning of the season and we play 13 straight. The most twit like trend is burning high leverage guys (up 6 runs) and using low leverage guys (down 1). Dylan Lee might pitch 100 games this year.

    I think teams are going to become strategic with it (except the Braves who will be out of challenges by the Acuna’s 2nd at bat every game) that it at most impacts 1 or 2 calls a game. But I think once they fully automate balls and strikes that your theory will be proven correct.

    Boots on the ground and heavy construction equipment to unseal the tunnels they blew up. Oh and they’ll need specialized equipment and personnel to handle the uranium.
