A stupid game. Good stadium experience despite the threat of weather. We also now apparently have a tshirt Gatling Gun.

Basketball season starts soon, Duke.

Ooof he’s 6’ tall. I assumed he was shorter cuz most of them are small (or at least none are big). They might actually be 9 inches.

Billiam @billh.bsky.social · 21h

And he’s a driver so those are probably 7 inchers but they damn look like 9 on him.

With it being ABC and ESPN this year I would guess they run 90% the same commercials and then when they would have to do local station commercials on ABC they can do extra gambling commercials on his alt cast.

Even if they don’t they still are taking (making up numbers) 10m mnf watchers and giving 1/2 commercials A and the Others commercials B. Maybe there’s a slight upcharge to target the specific market but it’s a lot of production cost too.

It’s called SEC Nation but somehow he didn’t get put there.

If this means that the regular broadcast doesn’t have to cater to the betting chuds then sure waste your money on that, ESPN. I don’t get how splitting an audience that’s already going to watch the games is profitable, but it’s your cash not mine. Burn it.

Oh shit. Your dog is 2¢ more in tax than mine.

And they just keep giving him that bag of ice! I bet he doesnt even have indoor plumbing in that dog house. What is this the 1800s???

000

They got the haters in a chokehold. Us. We are the haters.

Ok what is your team's mascot's progressive political stance? Imo Buzz is down with Beltline Rail. Yellow Jackets live in hives so clearly he's a Democratic Socialist and would support @kelseabondatl.bsky.social pushing @andreforatlanta.com (Also a Jacket!) to get some new rail built.

Yeah, I am sure some of that is my 6'5" male privilege. I can be polite and then firm just by being present in a way a lot of people cant.

If there wasnt the risk of innocent bystanders being ignored because resources are going to have to support the game, this would be very very funny to me.

000

They get a "Hi/good afternoon/greeting of some sort" and then thats the last I talk to them unless I happen to be a window and need to get up. Thats it.

The university has said they are banned from tomorrows tailgating, which lololol good luck with that.

050

Whoa, I believe in being a bit more of a hater too if I had that kind of flexibility with my schedule. I would certainly show up at some funerals of people I couldnt stand just to peer over the edge of the coffin and chuckle.

If someone doesnt know the glory of finally getting a discman with 10 seconds, or a glorious 30 seconds, of anti-skip, we cant be friends.

At worst she’s only there temporarily!

000

I’m 50/50 rn. We’re hosting a nephew for part of the day who’s touring Tech tomorrow. We offered to take him but he’s declined so it depends on if he has other things in town he wants to do or if he wants to head home after lunch. If he does I think I will do it cuz I have a line on a free ticket.

So how much of a sicko am I to be considering going to the GT-Duke game in full rain gear and just weathering the storm? I’m guessing lightning will cause a cancellation or big delay and I have AtlUtd tickets for 7:30, but perhaps I’ll see some stupid football?

The toe caps on the shoes!

And just imagine how easy legging out a triple will be after you conquer a 5k!

140

Or a 1:1 run:walk ratio if it’s hard. Speed/time/running the whole time isnt important. If you want to get out and do it then you should and then the next time you can train a little more and know what you’re capable of and if you like it push for a bit faster. Or don’t and just go your own speed.

Not that 40 minutes should be your goal but running 2 minutes at a pretty slow pace then walking one at a brisk walk can get you there in 40ish. Not that doing it in 45 or 50 is bad.

120

No I think you could do it. 5k is a distance where running it the whole way takes a little work (like a month) and running it to be competitive is hard but you could get out there tomorrow and do a run/walk if you wanted to just do the thing.

What about just winning the AL East? Three times in his 9 years feels like about what the Yankees should do with just their $ advantage alone.

000

oh, so more picking up and stuff. I didnt know if there were other provisions you would gather. My understanding is that the AI models are the ones to the east. I dont know what amount of stock to put in that tbh, but I have enough booze if it does go east so I am not too worried.

000

What else would you do to prep?

First outter bands of clouds from Isaias are already over Atlanta.

050

I probably need to do that. I have the freezer cubes to be able to batch it up.

Speaking of BMs. Charmin should be financing this deal.

But this falls into the "I am good most days, but not consistent enough". On days when I eat normally then I get a good amount of fiber from things like beans. Its the days when we grab pizza or something that throw me off.

120

Oh me and beans are great friends. I have 6 cans of kidney beans on my counter right now for chili I am making this evening.

120

thins? Wait they make fiber cookies? I bet those are dense af.

000

Yeah Im just not good at being an adult. I feed myself and show up to work and clean up after myself and the "Take a daily medicine/supplement" goes great for a week or two when I rededicate myself but then I manage to forget to refill the pill case cuz all of them are "optional" and I fall off.

220

Yeah I got a whole thing of the capsules that I am bad at taking. Im trying, just not good at it.

A better can have a little Salamis (Race 9) as a treat

The answer is probably "Depends on the day". Most days Im good and eating enough fruits and veggies to get my daily recommended amount. But then a day happens where its like "I had a hot gog for lunch and now we are going to watch a game and getting wings for dinner".

Zahn McClarnon didnt become an EP on the show for no reason.

Im not saying its not me thats the general problem. But I guess thats why I didnt think kiwi was trail food.
