what do you mean that's the same Josh Johnson

Does anyone else bristle at this framing? WSJ says blue books are “torturing” students with hand cramps, and “nobody likes them.” Listen, students have been outsourcing everything to AI and cheating their way through college. Blue books should be celebrated as a return to authentic human learning.

i'm not trying to look a gift horse in the mouth i just cannot figure out for the life of me why the pirates didn't do this exact thing 12 months ago

lowe and o'hearn add up to about $25 million, so i guess we can officially say they were Serious About Schwarber now.

Ryan O'Hearn isn't exciting, but when your lineup is as poor as PIT's was, even competent is a step forward. A top 5 of Cruz, Lowe, O'Hearn, Horwitz, Reynolds isn't .. bad? With Griffin coming soon? It's not good enough, either. This team is dying for a 3B or a corner OF. (or a 2B if Lowe is LF.)

live look at the nutting household last night

the record for largest free agent signing in pittsburgh pirate history remains francisco liriano's 3-year/$39 million deal, but i believe that 2-years/$29 million for o'hearn sets the record for largest contract given to someone who was not a pirate the year before

Record breaking free agency signing

My sports moment of the year was attending a Chiba Marines game and hearing the fans belt "El Coffee Home Run" for Gregory Polanco even as they trailed 8-0 in the ninth. You don't have to bolt for the exits when your team's going to lose!

Future North Carolina Interim head coach Bobby Petrino!

Listen: Billy Pilgrim has come unstuck in time.

the goal of a "playoff" is to have the "best teams" correct

it's extremely funny that lane kiffin did something that immediately caused even non college football people to clock it and go, "that's messed up" and he's only just gotten started

so, what does the starting lineup look like right now? C - Flores 1B - Horwitz 2B - Lowe SS - Gonzalez? 3B - Triolo LF - Jhostynxon CF - Cruz RF - Reynolds DH - ? Or put Mangum in a corner OF spot and DH Reynolds, maybe. Still not complete, in other words.

i don't really see another trade with a starting pitcher left for the pirates, unless they're going to sign their typical rich hill type veteran lefty.

a little concerned about brandon lowe's aging curve, but i think burrows for lowe works; i'm just not sure how high burrows' ceiling is. you'd almost think the pirates are trying to put this together without trading keller (the right move, but not the direction i thought they'd take)

trading neil walker for this guy because they needed money to upgrade a weight room was the moment the pittsburgh pirates died forever

hell is an endless IT help desk thread in which every three months the following exchange repeats. "Has this issue been sorted? "No, no one has contacted me about this in three months." [three months of silence]

we gotta figure out what's happening over at Jeopardy HQ

he’s pre-traded already for this year

no one's brain works this way anymore, but if you google "best TNG episodes" and watch like three of them in any order you will be very close to understanding star trek's entire deal and then you can go from there.

me: "i have so many video games i'd like to finish over break, no idea how i'm going to do that." also me: "what if i spent six hours modding new vegas to try and get a run in for the new season of fallout."

it is truly surreal to watch the thing you've spent your whole life studying turn into a nonsense conspiracy buzzword

You gotta fire that coach, sorry Dan Muse

this is where i learn that this movie is already out and critics have seen it and one of them wrote that the movie is "not trying to be political" ?!?!?!?!? NOT TRYING TO BE POLITICAL? IT'S FUCKING ANIMAL FARM

ah, i was wondering which game i should pick in my "which game awards announcement is vaporware" pool

absolute LOL at larian having the entire video game world wrapped around their finger waiting to see what they do next and then dropping THAT trailer

real 1949 nobel prize in medicine vibes on this one

what exactly does disney believe people will use this technology to do with their characters, have they ever been online www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...

one thing that's been consistently confounding to me with this year's college football coaching carousel is that no one seems to notice curt cignetti's age

"the reds only wanted to sign schwarber because he was from ohio, they actually do not care to sign another hitter" is a funny headline, but does anyone know what the pirates' plan b is, or did they just want to sign a square-shaped man on the assumption pittsburgh would love him

On Tuesday, the Bucs signed arguably the best left-handed reliever on the open market

everyone knows tahoma is the only acceptable microsoft word font for lab reports, because it clearly distinguishes between 1, l, and I.

the ducks in orange is an abomination, the millennials demand a return to teal

what's even funnier about this is that this is basically the same approach they took with griffey, and it really didn't work out great at all

even by college football standards, this is incredible loser shit

What a terrible way to actually run your baseball team.

lol i even nailed the dollar amount bsky.app/profile/whyg... bsky.app/profile/whyg...

first reaction: "do not give the pittsburgh steelers or large benjamin any ideas" then: "would that be worse or more objectionable than what they're already doing" finally: "PLEASE SAVE US, KYLE SCHWARBER"

this is not really the point of this article but triangle strategy rules.

no idea

ok, so there is one element of this that the first thread didn't discuss, and it's this: the potential work stoppage.

a bulleted list that begins with a number one and never includes another number, i have become my phd mentor.

because nuance did not survive the transition to this site, i guess i need to be clear that *i do not believe the pirates will actually sign kyle schwarber.*

pluribus isn't exactly a perfect show, buti think it's a pretty fascinating thing, just in the way that it's crafted to reflect just about any anxiety of the viewer, on (i think) multiple levels.

do not toy with me, ben

Here’s the thing, emerging scientists aren’t going to flee to do science elsewhere…they just won’t do the science. We will lose at least one, if not two generations of knowledge if we don’t get this shit sorted out immediately.
