Tanner and I are looking for writers who want to contribute studies for the 2026 edition of The Process.

We already have 80 or so ideas for studies, or a person can come up with their own.

We competitively compensate all the writers. Just let me know if you are interested.

Right-wingers literally straight-up admitting "it's harder to discredit the left because the left is almost always telling the truth"
Scott Jennings @Lum 21h um, yes, that's really a problem

The problem with left-leaning media is they're intrinsically more strict with their propaganda to only using verifiable sources so it's really hard to poke holes in their ideology and arguments in comparison to a lot of low quality rightwing content.
That makes attacking their points with fact checkers not very effective unless the fact checkers use misinformation tactics as well.
In essence people on the right have to work harder and more creatively to push their agendas as statistics and studies frustratingly arent usually on our side.

Seven years?

And I want a blow job right now but that ain't happening either.

KU is done and the game isn't halfway through the first quarter.

I've seen that outcome before. The worst I've seen was when a father went to the sideline and was going to kick a 12-year-old's ass. They banned the father from the complex.

Crazy end to my son's soccer match. Both teams have struggled & it was the second win for my son's team.

During the handshakes, a back and forth started with a red card being pulled. Both teams got separated.

A player on the other team told the refs that their coach was paid to throw the match.

Looking back at this season and comparing Process vs Results

Based on these numbers (all are small samples), which pitcher would you drop?

It's one of my favs but the price is high. I just grabbed a bottle for $40 from a guy liquidating some of his collection.

Kind of a goof ball who used to play for the Royals (and several other teams).

You've had me guessing and I'm going with Brett Phillips. He's the only person I could see with Minion pillowcases

"...the position wide open come Spring Training, with Darell Hernaiz and Max Muncy as the top in-house candidates, along with Gelof ... "

That is one big shit sandwich.

Included in every post-season preview:

[Insert any team here] will be in the market to add a proven arm or two to bolster bullpen depth and hope they can stay healthier on the mound in 2026.
