xie, that guy from 2007 @mrpen.us · 29/09/2026Yeah. He's 34 years old, these lower body injuries start to accumulate. Donaldson was 30 when he strained his right calf and was never the same. He missed significant time with it in '16, '17, '18, '20, '23 000

xie, that guy from 2007 @mrpen.us · 28/09/2026Yeah, a lot of times people will talk about McDonalds or Bowling as a "third space," and it's not that everything was free, but it was a reasonable amount of money for a kid to have from allowance, birthday money, babysitting, lawn mowing, p/t jobs. 2171
xie, that guy from 2007 @mrpen.us · 28/09/2026Jazz, Vlad, and Bo all had basically the worst seasons of their careers at 28, 27, and 28 years old.

xie, that guy from 2007 @mrpen.us · 25/09/2026Hitting a baseball is well known as the hardest thing in sports, I don't see how offense will truly recover without intervention.
