@Notthatgiordano @jbandersoncpa @jsikardi @andrea_reiher I actually drove there from Chicago, and it's not a bad drive.

@GoGoHoFo @jbandersoncpa @jsikardi @andrea_reiher So my brother was fired up b/c Jenn didn't get her Canadian paperwork together in time for K to get the Canadian thing. I think she feels like it's the right distance.

Should I go out for Friday drinks? I feel torn.

@Notthatgiordano @jbandersoncpa @jsikardi @andrea_reiher It's a good landing place. Good to be a little bit further from home than Chicago, and you know how I feel about Toronto after they tried to kill me

@GoGoHoFo @jbandersoncpa @jsikardi @andrea_reiher She is very happy with her choice so I'm thrilled for her. She got wait listed at U of C, Toronto.

@JuanchoS @HamHock42 Bonds and Tim Duncan are the two dudes who I think we knew they were great when they played, but they somehow are even better when you look back
English
@GoGoHoFo @HamHock42 the 1.000 OPS streak stat, and how he missed it, is maybe my favorite
English
I actually think his most incredible accomplishment is 2935 hits when he walked that many times
OldTimeHardball@OleTimeHardball
You hold the deciding vote in the Hall of Fame case of Barry Bonds. Does he get in? 162.8 WAR
English
@JuanchoS @HamHock42 My favorite is that he got on base more times than anybody other than Pete Rose, who has 300 more with 3200 extra plate appearances.

@Notthatgiordano @jbandersoncpa @jsikardi @andrea_reiher I've worked with a few of their engineering folks in my last job. And they had me out to campus a couple years ago. It's a real nice college town and that little pedestrian Mall right off campus is the platonic ideal of a College bar district

@GoGoHoFo @jbandersoncpa @jsikardi @andrea_reiher She is going to Iowa for biomedical engineering! She loved the campus

@heshsson Every once in awhile you just got to be a mensch. It was actually nice. I stopped at a little pizza shop that made actual vanilla egg creams; a treat I have not had since my father passed. Even went by pimlico, despite the fact that the Preakness is down in Laurel this year
English
@Notthatgiordano Do it. Also, congrats on K's graduation. I heard she's heading to the land of @jbandersoncpa @jsikardi and @andrea_reiher

I'm in the Uber now. I have a grad on Sunday so it's tonight or nothing.

I saw InfoWars stickers on multiple college campuses in NE Ohio in the early aughts
James Rambin@jamesrambin
completely forgotten to people under a certain age that when this movie came out alex jones was a beloved local figure among the vaguely progressive crunchy austin counterculture, like dennis kucinich bumper sticker bouldin creek cafe chronicle readers. hard to explain now

@Rob_In_WI None of that matters. If they had called the foul at the last second, the game would have been over
English
Refs ain't to blame for the wretched offensive choices Detroit made in the 4Q and OT not the shitty blocking out on rebounds and FTs.
hofo@GoGoHoFo
Detroit should have won that game in regulation, but I guess the refs wanted to give it to Cleveland.
English
@Rob_In_WI I thought that Maryland run in the early 2000s with the final four followed by the national championship was going to produce multiple great NBA careers. Steve Francis and Juan Dixon were two, but Wilcox was the guy I thought was going to have a HoF career.

Teenage me thought Laettner would be better, it he might have just been too early for a true stretch 4. Teenage me also wasn't sure Dikembe's offense would play.

Projecting draft prospects is hard. Who are some players you thought were going to be stars that never reached that level? If the draft has never humbled you, I find it hard to trust your opinion. Mine: Royce White Ben McLemore Tyreke Evans

I do not understand how James Harden goes through a full season without getting his ass kicked by several teammates

I just attended a webinar on this and every single claim is probably false.

The findings are clear: anti-Christian bias wasn’t isolated – it was pervasive. Now, under @POTUS, we’re restoring fairness, protecting families, and ensuring every American can practice their faith without government interference. ed.gov/about/news/pre…

@jaredlholt Isn't this this guy's entire shtick? He walks around openly brandishing a weapon while saying super racist stuff, just hoping somebody will give him an excuse to shoot.
