Glad the Sabres pulled off the win last night, but it's abundantly clear that goaltending (specifically UPL) is still an issue. I really hope we don't find ourselves in April saying, "Ya know, maybe Jarmo should have just given the Jets both of those lottery picks for Hellebuyck."

I said going into last offseason that there were only 4 Mets who we could 100% expect to see on the 2026 roster. After this debacle of a season, that list only expands slightly: Soto, Benge, Ewing, McLean, Scott, Thornton. Everyone else could possibly leave via FA, get DFA'ed, or be traded.

My take on the whole "I've never heard of Choosin' Texas" thing: We definitely live in a world where people choose their own musical echo chambers, and for many country music is the last bastion of exclusion ("I like all kinds of music... except country"). On that, I agree with Marissa Moss.

You know what would be cool? If Christian Scott could get the win for this game. But alas this is the way the game is played now. Yank the starter at 79 pitches with 2 outs in the 5th because he might give up more than 3 runs.

I think the Mets pretty much traded everyone they could. Manaea's contract likely scared people away, no takers for Baty/Vientos, and Lindor's a 10/5 guy who could block any deal.

"Public interest" does not equal "you have no choice," no matter what the FCC chairperson says. A network can also operate in the public interest if it chooses not to air a speech, especially if there are concerns over the validity of what will be said during that speech.

‘Say yes and never do it’ Mel Brooks knew how to deal with the studios
You have some wonderful stories of basically getting away with stuff at the studios.

I’d learned one very simple trick: say yes. Simply say yes. Like Joseph E. Levine, on “The Producers,” said, “The curly-haired guy—he’s funny looking. Fire him.” He wanted me to fire Gene Wilder. And I said, “Yes, he’s gone. I’m firing him.” I never did. But he forgot. After the screening of “Blazing Saddles,” the head of Warner Bros. threw me into the manager’s office, gave me a legal pad and a pencil, and gave me maybe twenty notes. He would have changed “Blazing Saddles” from a daring, funny, crazy picture to a stultified, dull, dusty old Western. He said, “No farting.” I said, “It’s out.”That’s probably the most famous scene in the movie, the campfire scene.

I know. He said, “You can’t punch a horse.” I said, “You’ll never see it again.” I kept saying, “You’re absolutely right. It’s out!” Then, when he left, I crumpled up all his notes, and I tossed it in the wastepaper basket. And John Calley, who was running [production at] Warner Bros. at the time, said, “Good filing.” That was the end of it. You say yes, and you never do it.

That’s great advice for life.

It is. Don’t fight them. Don’t waste your time struggling with them and trying to make sense to them. They’ll never understand.
