Remember when us phil-tech types said effective altruism was just utilitarianism taken to its worst possible extents? This is what we meant: Real harm for unquantifiable potential benefit. "…'we believe that the world should accept some bad things happening for the benefits of this technology….'"

I feel like Gabe Evans continually reminding his constituents that Manny went to Yale is going to backfire spectacularly on him.

There is no blowing it up. Maybe three years from now you can do what the Cubs did. You just have to keep doubling down. I wish there would make changes under the hood.

Here's how to punish City: End of season, single elimination tournament for teams placed 1-16. Starting with tourney winners, every team gets to pluck one player from City's 25 man roster. The remainder are sold with the proceeds split evenly amongst the teams placed 10th and below.

I attended Cornell 175 years ago (Hello Ezra ole buddy) but I remember enough and know enough people who still work in Ithaca services that… I think I still can say however bad you think the “culture” is there by reading this week, it’s likely exponentially worse.

Based on EPA per drive, that's the Eagles' worst offensive performance of the last four seasons. 9 possessions: 4 punts, 3 turnovers, 1 failed 4th down, 1 TD.

I would rather see the Broncos win for my friends, but that was not pass interference, and also he caught the ball in bounds.

I mean, anything less than that would just be ridiculous? I think there's an argument to send them to League 2. But ultimately, that will be up to the EFL really. I can see why they could be keen though. Oldham and Fleetwood might fancy the numbers on the gate.

The rules are protectionist and have been gerrymandered by the heritage “big clubs” and should be changed. Throughout history of football, whoever invested the most means has won. What should be changed is nation states not being allowed to own clubs via any instrument.

A reminder that nearly all of the big clubs rejoicing this verdict wanted to join the Super League which would have broken competitive fairness in football forever. It’s not about that. Never has been. Just protectionism of the status quo.
