It took me longer than it should have to realize/accept that if new shows/movies came out in an IP I loved like Trek that I didn't enjoy as much it was ok, because the old stuff still existed. It's awesome. I get to love ST: Strange New Worlds and I don't have to be mad at anyone about ST DISCO. lol
“I may be disappointed more people don’t like the choice we made, but that doesn’t change my opinion of what we did” is another quote I want to bronze/steal.

No idea why the 40th anniversary is making news three months late but it's still worth a note. Probably watched it 100 times and it still makes me laugh.

Doubs lets the punt hit 5 yards in front of him.

It's not news at this point but this Packers offensive line is just pretty bad. Losing Jenkins hurts a lot but they weren't very good with Jenkins either.

@cnn.com every time I go to your website the last day you have Candace Owen's and some other idiot shrieking about demons and Charlie Kirk. Not news.

Never been prouder of the fact that this guy once thought I seemed pretty ok and gave me a job.
see how easy this shit is

#nfl Great job making your product unavailable this morning, dumbasses.

Against my better judgement, I'm going to turn the @wisconsinbadgers.bsky.social football game on for a couple of series. First time in a month.

I'll never understand why people take or like photos of themselves staring at something with their backs to the camera. Least authentic behavior imaginable in a photo and you're blick8ng the scenery. Just stop.

This is exactly correct.
To be fair to Macintosh *this* was his only play because you aren’t letting him make another football hire so once Fickell is fired so is he, he had to convince people to give him another year and the money being spent is someone else’s problem if it doesn’t work out.

They put it up to keep someone from walking past the door, getting lost and wandering the grounds trying to remember where to go.
this looks like a trick daffy duck would put up to get bugs bunny into "the oval office"

I'm voting to be really disappointed when Matt inevitably acts like they didn't just lose Kraft and tries to run two TEs until they're down 3 scores
With the Kraft injury confirmed at this point, this is the week to go 11 personnel. I don't think the Packers will be able to create movement in the run game with the 2 TEs currently on their roster.

I know it's all subjective (I love the all greens and the all white uniforms), but is their a dumber looking alternate helmet than the faux leather graphic helmet? Not in my opinion. #GBvCar

@mpbmke.com I was pretty sure you were right about this a week ago (i.e., Valentine being 100x better than Hobbs outside) but this week certainly appears to have proven it.
Valentine is 100x better outside.

That half was peak Matt Lafleur's Packers. They're very talented, pretty good, but if you wait long enough they'll start making mistakes. It's just a matter of when, how, and whether the opponent is good enough to make it matter.

Once again, Tucker Kraft catches the ball inside the 15 yard line and there are plenty of defenders between him and the goal line and as soon as he caught it I assumed it was a touchdown. #Greenbaypackers

Well put. That said the owners could agree to more complete revenue sharing than what they're doing now without a cap, and any anti-trust concerns (HA! Like Congress or this Administration cares about THAT!) would be addressed by a CBA that MLBPA would approve in 90 minutes w/o a cap structure.
You want proper framing? OK.

7 of the top 10 payrolls made the playoffs.

2 of the bottom 15 payrolls made the playoffs.

The #Packers offensive line is trash.

And, imo, Franklin hasn't completely detonated the program he was running the way Fickell has.
I’m just saying Fickell’s is “only” $31.5 million right now
James Franklin's buyout will be around $50 million. His contract was fully guaranteed.

That will be the second-highest CFB buyout ever, behind the $77 million Texas A&M is paying Jimbo Fisher.

Said it before and I'll say it again, as a left back, (or right back), Max Arfsten makes a good attacking mid. No idea why Poch continues to expect him to be able to defend on the back line. #USMNT

As bad as Joey Ortiz is at the plate he's absolutely tearing it up compared to Bryce Turang in the NLDS. Turang: .133/.188/.200/.388. #Brewers
