Question for #cardsky? Does anyone else have a shame pile? For example I collect Calgary Cannons alumni rookies, so my Omar Vizquel 1989 Topps Traded is in my shame pile. I collect Orioles and Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame inductees and so Roberto Alomar is in the shame pile.

One of the most litigious companies in the world just gave full use of its characters to an app that will allow people to put them in homemade snuff films all in hopes of never having to pay a human being for a movie or TV show again
BREAKING: Disney is making a $1 billion investment in OpenAI, and will allow its iconic characters to be on the company's Sora AI video generator.

It is so funny to see all the self-righteous accounts who bashed the Orioles relentlessly for years about not spending now pivot to bashing them for spending in this specific way.
The argument was always "don't overthink it, spending money is good you ghouls." You don't get to be analytical now.

This is a top 3 Jon Bois Production for me, my order is
1) History of The Minnesota Vikings
2) Fool Time
3) The Bob Emergency
and honestly I'd be willing to bump it up to 1 if we consider that I'm pretty sure you can fit 2 whole Fool Times in 1 History of the Vikings

Look, if you think Elias is cheap for offering a DH $150M the yr after offering a SP $180M, then your head is in the sand or just like complaining
THAT SAID. Cant go "well we tried" like we did last yr
Overpay & get a premium SP.
And if you really want to go for it, Pete Alonso too.
