@rorycooper The New Jersey Giants disagree with your take that it is bad for the Bears.

Imagine the Lions moving to Toledo. Terrible look for Chicago and the Bears.

@EsotericCD The correct way is to only use Lists and never go to the Home screen.

This mode is the only proper way to use Twitter/X, so why has Elon updated the place to intentionally revert the setting back to "Popular" every time I return? I know why.

@EsotericCD Take That was supposed to perform at my high school after we won a recycling contest. Instead, they broke up. Hopefully, they will fulfill their obligation from 1998.

Man and you thought it was big when Robbie Williams came back for reunion gigs

@PatrickRuffini You know I immediately went to your LinkedIn :).

The most soul-sucking 8 months of my professional life was spent in a federal agency that 100% should not have existed.

@EsotericCD Each time I see your photo in my timeline, I think of Mitch Hedberg, which is a great opportunity to remember one of his better jokes: "Every book is a children's book if the kid can read."

I finally figured it out:

@EsotericCD Gigaton is a worse album.

trick question because the correct answer is that this is actually Pearl Jam's worst album

@EsotericCD That is a good joke.

It's okay, Noem spoke yesterday.

@rorycooper @MBonvoyAssist youtu.be/4T2GmGSNvaM?si… They can take the reservation, they just can't hold the reservation.

It's cool how you can build up years of loyalty with @MBonvoyAssist and they still can't keep your reservation.

@EsotericCD @NRO I feel you could have easily gotten more R.E.M. album titles into your closing thoughts. You hit Reckoning and Accelerate. Out of Time and Murmur were other easy choices, but hitting Collapse Into Now would really make it.

Stop railing at me about deepfakes and "cheap fakes." Stop commanding me to deny the evidence of my own eyes and ears and believe your cynical reassurances instead. Stop trying to pretend away Joe Biden's mental and physical decline. My latest for @NRO: nationalreview.com/corner/the-dem…

@EsotericCD @rorycooper @DouthatNYT There are many films from the 80's and 90's that I fondly remember and think, 'I'll share that with my kids'. When watching them, there are certainly scenes and dialogue that I didn't recall.

@rorycooper @DouthatNYT We all forget how vulgar that film was. God bless it.

The original "Bad News Bears" is such, such a good movie, though perhaps not *entirely* appropriate for the age range of children for whom I just screened it.

@RobDauster I remember being in the stands last year when Spencer calmly sank the game-winning basket against Purdue. Ice in his veins all season.

Cam Spencer scoring his 21st points on that goofy turnaround, finishing with four boards, three assists and three steals and then chirping in the ear of half the Johnnies roster. I could not possibly love that dude's game more. Killer.

@philipaklein Yup, I remember those days too. The 90's NBA is long gone.

@_Graig Crazy. I remember watching Knicks-Pacers games where it would be like, "no field goal has been scored in 5 minutes"

As somebody who was an intense Knicks fan in the 90s, but lost interest during the 00s and then stopped watching NBA over its China stance, I'm always shocked when I notice a score and see how much offense there is today. I remember when Knicks-Pacers score could be like 83-77.

@EsotericCD @Han_Solem The first 9 songs on Binaural are all really good, the problem is the mix of the album is not good. The live versions are much better.

@Han_Solem "Can't Keep" opens the record and is maybe one of their five greatest songs. Another one I'm surprised isn't treated as an obvious classic.

People outside of the hardcores forgot about Pearl Jam after their early '90s days, but this remains not only one of their finest musical achievements, but maybe also one of the five best songs about death and loss (in Eddie's inarticulate way) from Gen X: youtube.com/watch?v=qW_x8g…

@EsotericCD I give it a hardy, 'It's not bad.'

People are actually coming out of the woodwork to tell me to give the new Rolling Stones album a shot but man...I dunno...

@BFQuinn, @umhoops is the Moving Screen coming back for another season? I enjoyed the format change last year covering the entire league.

@jaykenworthy Way to jinx it. The month ended with 2.97 inches.

@_Graig That’s less than I would’ve guessed so far this month. But 2.9” halfway through the month has us on pace for a top 10.

Serious question: are we at record rainfall for the month of August in Indy? Seems like significant rain every day in what I always thought was our driest month.

@mike_carmin That was such a good TV show.

About that 2024 Big Ten football 16-team schedule which was released in June

@ob1156 @EsotericCD

@EsotericCD They talked about the weather is the competing narrative

On speakerphone. Not randomly bumping into them at the country club or whatever. Brought into the room, specifically to "shoot the breeze" for a few moments with Hunter Biden, 𝑤ℎ𝑖𝑙𝑒 ℎ𝑒 𝑖𝑠 𝑐𝑢𝑟𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑙𝑦 𝑜𝑛 𝑎 𝑏𝑢𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑠𝑠 𝑐𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑎𝑠𝑠𝑜𝑐𝑖𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑠.
