he didn't stand out to me as being particularly good nor bad in any way deserving of some of the praise or pearl- clutching i'm seeing

Did you guys think Sebastian Berhalter had a good game?

@RedWingDiehards The only thing the organization has done particularly well in the past decade is miss the playoffs. Developing goalies is pretty low on the list of areas that need improvement.
English
I think my new theory is that this organization just doesn’t know how to draft and develop goaltenders very well at all.
There has been one NHL all star level goaltender drafted and developed by Detroit this millennium and it was Jimmy Howard. He was drafted in 2003.
If you want to give them credit for drafting and developing Mrazek (2010) too, that’s fine, but he was an average NHL starter for most of his prime. Howard at least made 3 all star teams.
But nothing since. That’s an organization and development problem, is it not?
In fact, I can’t think of one additional example in recent history of a drafted and developed goalie by Detroit outside of Chris Osgood (1991) who brought championship level stability to the Detroit crease.
So now here we are with Cossa going into 2026-27, who they traded up to get 5 years ago, and people are concerned he can’t get it done either.
Two impactful goaltending prospects drafted and developed into good NHL starters in 35 years. That’s an issue.

I’ve seen the Cossa debate ad nauseam on here/on pods ect. People for trading him, people for keeping him… but rarely have I seen people discuss his actual game. His strengths, his weaknesses, what he’s improved, what still needs work. It’s always sv%/GAA/wins, accolades #LGRW

Red Wings:
Would not recommend tossing Carter Bear, as a piece, in a trade for an expensive player that likely won't be as good...
Prospects grow into NHLer's
...especially if drafted in the 1st round by Steve Yzerman
Carter Bear is SLAYING in the playoffs!
Fandom: Patience!
Red Wings Prospects@LGRWProspects
Carter Bear(1st round’25) Assist🍎 Great back pressure, wins a battle, and a hope play to the middle pays off (DuPont is just so nasty). #LGRW

@scottyballz99 @therealmcnair Exactly! Have switched to quarters because most elastic wears out too quickly.

@therealmcnair Any ankle sock that doesn’t slip down into your shoe while walking 18 holes. I have a pair of Bombas that are great in that area and very comfortable as well.

The golf sock conversation still feels deeply unsettled.
What is the best sock in golf and why?

@LouStagner Yeah, 50 yards isn’t really enough width. And it requires gigantic green complexes too. But when properly deployed the angles thing makes elite golf holes. That’s why Streamsong and Landmand are booked a year in advance.

Reviewed a golf course redesign plan from a major golf architecture firm. A lot of the strategy mentioned playing up one side of a hole to "open up" the better angle.
Most fairways top out at 30 yards wide and tree corridors are often under 60 yards wide.
The angle simply isn't there and chasing it will cost you strokes. Aiming for a side of a 30-yard wide fairway brings the trees/rough squarely into play with no real reward on the approach shot from the "better angle".
It was actually really cool to see through the redesign plan. Some really amazing changes that would make this course way better and way more fun to play. The booklet they produced was massive and went through all the changes in great detail. Very cool.

Okay screw it. Closest guess gets a free weekend stay with a guest at one of the new build cabins once they are done. One guess

600 ft…no agua. To put it in perspective that’s “roughly” a 60 story building. Maybe it’s my turn for some pain. What are we betting on? 700ft, 800 ft, 900 ft, 1,000 feet deep? I’m going with 700. Building on the side of mountain is not for the faint of heart.

Have a friend who bought a smaller sized land tract in East TN. 10 acres, paid $200,000. Looks great on paper. But…he didn’t call me for advice first 🤷♂️. Started building & at framing stage. Told me he has to stop. Well driller is 1,000 ft deep and STILL no water. I asked him “You didn’t go on TDEC (TN Dept of Enviro) website and look at any surrounding wells and their depths?!? You didn’t call 3-4 well drillers and ask if they’ve ever drilled on your road before and what their experience has been?” He just shook his head and said “Man, I f’ed up with this one.” For those who didn’t know, if you’re ever buying land or a lot to build on, always KNOW these 3 things: 1) What is the composition of the land under that first layer of dirt? More dirt or hidden rock? Dirt - good. Rock - bad. (Way higher clearing and excavation cost, plus major PIA to run conduit, install septic, run septic lines, etc. 2) Will the soil perc? (Percolation test that determines the septic size you can put on the property). Surrounding septic permit issuances can be found on most municipality websites. 3) Can you hit water? Most states provide perc info and well drilling info for surround parcels (if they’ve ever been drilled or perc’d). See these screenshots of wells drilled. RED IS BAD! Stay away from those areas. That means the well driller had to go really deep. What you also don’t see are surrounding lots who also went really deep and couldn’t hit water. Know another guy who paid a driller to drill in 4 different spots on his land. He was desperate because he paid a lot per acre for his land. Hit zero water all 4 times. What he paid for that land probably got cut in half with that info plus the cost he incurred with the driller. Always ask questions of the realtor or the owner (and do deep due diligence) before you sign that contract or those closing docs.

I want to sell this table.
It has marble top.
The dimensions are approximately 50" wide, 30" long, 19" tall.
It's heavy, so you'll need 2 to 4 people to carry move it.
$120.
Reply if you are interested.

Seattle’s proudly communist mayor just got a brutal reality check — and she still doesn’t seem to get it.
Amazon, the company that literally built modern Seattle, is shutting down its Amazon Fresh stores across the city after years of investment and expansion. One of the richest corporations on Earth is walking away from its own backyard with almost no notice.
Employees blindsided.
Neighborhoods losing grocery access.
Empty storefronts spreading.
The mayor had publicly promised that grocery chains “would not be allowed” to abandon communities.
Amazon closed anyway.
This isn’t just about groceries. It’s about what happens when a city makes itself too expensive, too hostile, and too unpredictable for the very businesses that power it.
Amazon didn’t fail Seattle.
Seattle’s leadership failed Seattle.
When the economic engine starts quietly packing up and leaving, the excuses run out fast.
Is this the beginning of a larger exodus, or just one company making a smart business decision?

@acaseofthegolf1 $$/owgr rank is the true measurement of greatness. Who can spend the least and still perform?

This video has really been misunderstood.
This includes his % he paid his caddie. That alone last year was likely a million dollars.
And his other people (coach, mental, etc) are on a % of winnings salary so it’s very easy to see how it quickly gets to an average of $50,000 a week. Especially after a great year.

‘Why did Rockefeller stop at the gas station and not vertically integrate into cars?’ CURRIE. Read the HedgieMarkets piece; read and re-read Currie.
Jeffrey Currie 🆔++@CommodMkt
This @HedgieMarkets post illustrates where the infinity scalable asset-light technology model meets the physical realities of an asset-heavy business that faces an upward sloping supply curve. We have long argued that AI compute is just another bit-atom commodity (like crypto) that uses a lot natural resources to create a valuable (unlike crypto) virtual asset. On the bit side, Big Tech is a price-maker with fat margins. On the atom side, a price-taker. Big Tech grew up in bits — search, social, e-commerce, office software: asset-light, infinitely scalable, natural monopolies. Build once, serve billions, watch costs fall every year. So they assume AI is the same game and will spend whatever it takes to own the market. But inference is also atoms, i.e. land, critical minerals and electrons, which are mostly molecules. In the commodity world, competition drives price to marginal cost: P = MC, which is upward sloping as volume rises. The better the models get, the faster they compete their own margins down to the physical floor which rises with volume. You can already see it. Microsoft just cancelled Claude Code because the cost to run it exceeded the value it returned — demand retreating the moment price met real cost. The irony: the customer pulling back was itself a hyperscaler. In April, Uber confirmed once again that AI compute demand is price elastic. Bottom line: they assumed AI costs would keep falling like they always did on the bit side; however, on the atom side, there is a hard floor that likely rises in the short run. I am not denying that the margins are still fat. But it’s not the same model. These guys are running towards obsolescing their own pricing power. Why did Rockefeller stop at the gas station and not vertically integrate into cars?
