a few more weeks of this, trump’s going to release the rest of the epstein files to distract from the war in iran.

I wish I could watch Donnie Darko for the first time again. Such a fantastic scene!!! youtu.be/qsyfGwlf_l0?...

Sounds like 2026 high school arms RHP Kaiden McCarthy (VT; Tennessee commit) and LHP Brody Bumila (MA; Texas commit) will open the spring by starting back to back days on 4/1 and 4/2. Expect a massive scouting crowd in attendance and a lot of reports getting turned out following these outings.

Paid loot boxes in gaming is essentially gambling, but its also similar to buying trading cards (which you could argue is gambling, too). ESRB ratings have lost a lot of their impact in a gaming market that is largely digital now. Still, gambling = higher rating feels like a no brainer.

Q I've not gotten answered: AIPAC Tracker has started attacking candidates as "Pro-Israel" even if they don't take AIPAC money, selectively. Van Hollen gets a green $0 from AIPAC image despite being backed by J Street. Dan Biss getting J Street support = red "money from Israel lobby" graphc

Tegan Kuhns has a chip on his shoulder. It's been there since he arrived to Knoxville. 40 pounds stronger with even bigger stuff, he's proven doubters wrong. There's work to be done, and Kuhns has no intention of letting that chip on his shoulder fade.

There are a couple "blue chips" in this class in SS Aiden Ruiz and LHP Brody Bumila. Both are likely top 50 picks. Ruiz is a clear plus defender w/phenomenal bat to ball skills. Bumila could be the best arm out of Mass. since Thomas White. Low slot, 6'8 lefty in upper 90s w/ 2 solid secondaries

High school baseball is almost here in the northeast. The talent level jumps significantly among the prep group compared to college in the region. This is where area scouts prove their worth as they are the frontline for evaluating a group of players that don't receive a ton of public coverage.

The sense of pride from remaining ignorant permeates throughout this administration and large swaths of American culture.

I’m at a bar in Canada and the whole place just went nuts. Guy to my right: “Trump will just say they won.”

Fun to see how the erroneous predictions line up with how the crypto super PACs were spending. I've spoken before about how Polymarket — despite its PR claims about being more accurate than polls — is often a better signal of what crypto holders WANT to have happen.

I deactivated my twitter account yesterday. Enough is enough. arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

This asshat sounds like hillbilly coach from The Waterboy.

Dont think its all that complicated. Many of these billionaires were able to accumulate incredible amounts of wealth because they have severe antisocial personality disorders. Lack of introspection, emotions, empathy, or connection to society make winning capitalism a whole lot easier.

This is amazing and I'm slightly embarrassed I didn't know this as a certified Sopranos fanatic

Well deserved OBAA

Great article. My own prediction: The recent raids in Georgia + Arizona targeting elections will be used to manufacture fake 'evidence' and 'irregularities' prior to the midterms. These fake findings will be weaponized to get the SAVE act passed before the midterms

“One thing that pisses me off about him is the curly hair. Riley’s curly hair was so fricking cute. And then I want to shave his curly hair because he doesn’t fricking deserve it.”

I've limited my use of twitter to one session per day this week The first 3 days it was difficult to stay off the app. I found myself reflexively opening the app during periods of 'down time' or boredom. I had trouble ending sessions at times and it felt like the app was sucking me in.

Babies in America are now dying because of vitamin K shot refusal, and the lies told by the antivax movement are the root cause of their deaths.

“And doubts about vaccines are increasingly spilling into refusal of other mainstays of pediatric medicine… At a hospital in Boise, Idaho, for example, three infants died last year after their parents declined a shot of vitamin K, administered to newborns to prevent bleeding, said Dr. Amanda Lee”

Amazing scouting by the Braves with Owen Carey. Story time: I was going to see Carey (and others) play summer ball in the Futures League since he was performing and was an incoming Rutgers recruit. I never expected him to get drafted so I thought I had plenty of time! Braves had different plans 😄

So uhhh, a victim in some of the newly released Epstein files told the FBI she bit Trump's dick.

And just like that, my Saturday night plans are set!

If I made an app where you input all the baseball games you’ve been to and it spits out all the players you’ve seen, along with their stats and other stuff, would people use it? Kind of like a baseball player / stadium / team Pokédex to keep track of what you’ve seen in person

We had a good run. Back to the usual anti consumer practices in gaming

Brandon Sproat just struck Cubs prospect Kevin Alcántara out so hard he threw the bat over the net along the third-base line

When someone says „Scientists do not want you to know“ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

love to see it

And, Talarico (D) takes the raw vote lead w/ a 76%-23% rout of Crockett (D) in Travis. Co. (Austin). This isn't on track to be a blowout, but he's the clear favorite. #TXSEN

Talarico!!!

A fun change is coming to the Spring Breakout series in 2027 and 2028. The prospect showcase is headed to a tournament format, beginning next year. More from @jonathanmayomlb.bsky.social:

CONFIRMED: Still relevant. Still hits. youtu.be/iywaBOMvYLI?...

Jesse Chavez told us he isn't on Giants' staff without Call of Duty. He'd play with Mike Minor, who added strength coach Quentin Eberhardt to their group. They became good friends. When Tony Vitello took Eberhardt with him to SF, Eberhardt threw out Chavez as a name to consider for bullpen coach.

Lions Pride!!! TCNJ sweeps the men's and women's basketball championships. Men won close yesterday, women romped today I broadcast some rough losses in William Paterson's gym in the 1990s. Glad to watch the end of their title-winning game there today. Time to dance!

Another opposite-field single for Tigers top prospect Kevin McGonigle, this one off Atlanta's Reynaldo Lopez.

Replacing a villain with a super villain. Draftkings and fanduel are floundering at the same time kalshi and polymarket are ascending. Not a coincidence. frontofficesports.com/gambling-sto...

1/ Something I've been thinking about recently is the future of subscriptions. What other industries and products will begin implementing subscription models in the years ahead? How about cars? I could see more and more features being gated behind monthly subscriptions. Especially if we start. . .

We're going to kill gaming for AI slop aren't we?

It's useful to focus on one issue - say climate or LGBT rights - and analyze closely how a Dem admin handled it versus how a GOP admin did. If you have red lines, great... if you're still doing "Dems are moderate Rs" or "uniparty" talk when the gulf between the parties is this vast, you're stupid.

This is the kind of photo that takes on a life of its own. A horrendous moment in our history that will be remembered long after those involved are gone.

(1/11) If you live in NY, you’ve probably started seeing a new warning: “THIS PRICE WAS SET BY AN ALGORITHM USING YOUR PERSONAL DATA.” This mandatory disclosure went into effect late last year, and it’s the first attempt by a US state to grapple with a new generation of surveillance pricing.

This is some shameful shit by the Pacers. Only 9 available players and these 4 protecting the tank. Teams need to start getting penalized for this.
