As I suspected, giving kids sugar makes them fat as adults

This is Exhibit A for why economics is the apex predator of the social sciences. This should be a nutrition paper. It wouldn't have been NBER material 30 years ago. But economists spent decades sharpening their econometric toolkit into a weapon while other fields coasted on p-hacked garbage, sloppy identification, and storytelling dressed up as research. Now they're colonizing nutrition, public health, criminology, and publishing better work than the people who've spent their whole careers there. Adapt or get swallowed. Simple as.

@LetsGo8888888 @BN_Bulls @BleacherNation you do know you can just write out fuck and shit, right? we're not on daytime tv

@BN_Bulls @BleacherNation Why should us bulls fans give a F*** if the Reinsdorf’s don’t? AK should have been fired long before his latest incompetence. I have zero faith the Reinsdorf’s will finally wake up and give two sh*ts!

@JeremiahDJohns lmfao cannot wait for them to pivot to "actually it was 5d chess since the US is a net energy exporter"

If the outcome of this war is that Iran is MORE geopolitically important than they were before, and the whole world just kind of accepts they get to control and toll Hormuz, and MAGA somehow declares it a victory anyways, I'm going to become the joker.
Alex Ward@alexbward
NEW: Trump told aides he’s willing to end the U.S. military campaign against Iran even if the Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed, administration officials said, likely extending Tehran’s firm grip on the waterway and leaving a complex operation to reopen it for a later date.

Unpopular opinion: the greatest weapon against anxiety and depression isn't a pill — it's discipline.
Not willpower. Discipline.
Moving your body daily. Sleeping. Eating real food. Putting your phone down. Being around people who actually see you.
None of it is easy. All of it works.
The hard part? Doing it when you feel least like doing it. That's exactly when it matters most.

@BleacherNation Also don't really love this one. I just think that bets on defense into a guy's 30s are fundamentally risky.

BREAKING: The Nico Hoerner Extension Details Are Here!

English
@dwtreadwell73 @wischlist His velo and movement were normal. Unless there's something up with his feel for his secondaries, he's probably fine. The only thing I'm worried about is the 2/3s fastball usage.
English
@wischlist @PleaseTalkToMe1 So just overlook the several bad outings he had down the stretch last year, too? Or the fact that he's 35 and outside of 2/3 of last season was NEVER anything special? I hope I'm wrong but odds are this isn't gonna end well for Boyd.
English
@BryanEscobar__ @JesseRogersESPN @JeffPassan Maybe come the deadline. But they still need him as depth in the short-run.

BREAKING: The Cubs are in agreement with 2b Nico Hoerner on a 6 year deal, pending a physcial, sources tell ESPN.

@chipperstrike3 @ballskwok Why would they extend Busch? He's 28, cheap, and controlled.
English
@BleacherNation Honestly sorta surprised by that one. Opens up a lot at the deadline.

BREAKING: Nico Hoerner Signs Extension with Chicago Cubs

@dwtreadwell73 @wischlist It's one start. Batted ball numbers are notoriously volatile for pitchers. We learned this lesson 25 years ago and people still love ignoring it.

@maiamindel They could take an AKOTSK lesson and expand Bertie Carvel's role, though.

the truth is that i don't think it's going to be particularly successful or unsuccessful because it's just something wev'e already seen. house of the dragon and not a knight of the seven kingdoms

Unstoppable force vs immovable object
English
@NickJFaleris Is it? I feel like the discourse around the organization more broadly is that they have a secret sauce that makes them outperform their baseline projections, which suggest the front office has either a developmental or strategic team building edge.
English
@jakes21 @Michael_Cerami The raw stuff looked fine, though. Velo and movement are normal. Not really concerned about something physically being wrong.
English
@PleaseTalkToMe1 @Michael_Cerami Sure. And I also think facing a really bad lineup, coming off a year where you threw a ton of innings where you haven’t done that in forever probably puts the magnifying glass on it a little more. It’s fair to wonder how he’ll perform this season.
English
Matthew Boyd gave up a solo shot, but has four Ks through 2.0 innings. The Nats are being very aggressive.
English
@jakes21 @Michael_Cerami My point is that loud contact in a single start is often itself fluky. A bad location day or not having a feel for a particular pitch can have real impacts in one start but quickly correct.
English
@PleaseTalkToMe1 @Michael_Cerami If it was fluky where it was a couple dinkers a walk and a 3 Run bomb then whatever. It was consistent loud contact when they hit it.
