Surely Lucy won't pull the football away *THIS* time.
Politics is not fan culture—none of these people are your friends. There are no permanent friends and no permanent enemies, only permanent interests.
We can be grateful that MTG is against Trump without liking her or thinking of her as a long-term ally. The anti-Trump coalition must be huge.

I can't believe there are two separate baseball thoughts from almost the exact same time correctly predicting this but as a joke. Bill James Offline did the same thing about comparative voting systems in the New Historical Abstract!
Sometimes you run across an old quote that stops you cold. From a Jayson Stark article in January 2000:

Anyone watching WWE today supports MAGA. Anyone who signs a new deal to work there supports MAGA. Once Triple H showed up in the Oval Office, any grace was removed (at least for me). It's a MAGA company. We all have free will about what we watch or where we work.
Because not everyone who works there feels that way, and not everyone who watches it feels that way.
But it is from the top, and top down.
And that really, really sucks.

the Mets are in a better long term organizational position than they’ve been in for literally decades. It is perfectly normal to be mad if they miss the playoffs, but the “Stearns is a cheap mid-market guy” stuff is completely ridiculous. He just signed Juan Soto for $805 million!
But Jarrett, missing the playoffs this year is “even more humiliating” than 2007, as I’m being told. (Thank you for constantly maintaining perspective)

I know this is just weird mass delusion but the Mets did not have a bad offseason. Soto is a top 5 player playing like one. Alonso has outperformed his deal by a lot. Holmes is one of the best pitching signings. And most of the moves you all wanted that they didn’t do would’ve been worse.

There are a litany of reasons why we should instantly doubt Eric Bischoff asserting that TNA can be the #2 wrestling company. If you're gonna give us his stupid quote, make sure we concurrently understand why we should doubt him.
