Bush league tactics
100%

Bush league tactics are part of sports, not a big fan of them, but there are always players, coaches, teams that will straddle the grey area for the slightest advantage. This one being that a throw inside the bag will create inadvertent contact, or an extra bag because F3 can't catch the ball. The bush league/grey area is something that is in the bounds even if not well accepted. Throwing punches is well outside of the bounds of the game and not standing up for himself but losing control in the moment. Doesn't mean he is a bad kid, but he had a bad reaction in a spot that is absolutely fair to criticize.

Memory was right for once, it was two. Kebrion Morgan in 2010 and Jaleel Gipson in 2013. Morgan had an enlarged heart that was never diagnosed and passed in film study after practice. Gipson suffered a neck injury during spring practice and ended up passing a couple days later after being declared brain dead. I am not in anyway saying that Spat or his staff are in anyway responsible, but I do not know of many coaches that could survive two players passing during practices in a three year stretch.

The entire town backed Spat.
JJ correct me if I'm wrong but didn't he have two different occasions of players either passing or nearly passing during workouts/practices during his time there?

With the bulge boost.


This is the OT, we do not need help with this, in fact we need a bulge reducer so that we can get through a workout without feeling like a piece of meat to the females and gays at the gym.

I know I for one haven't been able to wear basketball style shorts since I hit puberty because of this affliction.

JQ1

I guess I should have read the article. I know there are currently scheduled and ongoing human trials of YCT-529 which is the RARa selective inhibitor.
quote:

What about hormonal balance in males including testosterone production?
That is why the target is RAR-alpha receptors. Beta and Gamma receptors are the ones that would effect testosterone production and subsequently prostate and libido health. The compound they are using based on the current studies is highly selective and as of now shows very little to no crossover, but most of the found crossover is to other alpha receptors like in the pupil which on healthy individuals is more than compensated for by the beta receptors that deal with eye health.
Will be interesting to see where this goes come time for human trials. Since it's non-hormonal it has to be an RARa blocker that blocks vitamin A receptors to trigger meiosis. Three things to watch will be how many participants have a 'rebound' where the blocker become ineffective over time. What is the timeline for meiosis to restart after the blocker is stopped. How many participants see blocking beyond the targeted receptors. Concern with the latter is if additional receptors other than those targeted block vitamin A there will be vision loss (hopefully reversible once the RARa blocker is stopped). For the masses #2 will be the only factor, just to see if it's a 1 month or 6 month timeline between starting and stopping. Other two are going to be the outliers (hopefully).

Sounds like a Sr and a Fr in HS. As a Fr in HS, if I was hooking up with a Sr I'd have been stoked, but that is older girl younger boy. I'd have probably broken a kid's nose though if a 19yr old boy was hooking up with my niece when she was a Fr. Fair or unfair I have different reactions based on the sex of the offender.

Dollar is worth less now.

$4.55 is the national avg today, price adjusted that would be $3.99 in 2022 dollars. National avg in May/June 2022 was $5.02 that is $5.59 in today's dollars.

National avg when Biden was inaugurated was $2.38, the avg the rest of his presidency was $3.61 or $4.21 in today's dollars. That average accounts for a couple of months below $3.00 which was constant with Trump's first term, and also the large drop in pricing following the election results in November 2024.

I am all for people who voted for Trump being upset and even having some regret as Iran and the subsequent raise in price is not consistent with his first term or what one would expect from his presidency. The never trumpers pounding the ground and crying about gas prices though...peak Trump prices are $1.00 per gallon cheaper than peak Biden prices, and are ~$0.35 above Biden's avg. :dunno:

Yeah, it's finally over the last 6 months seemed to kick in. It took a very long time for me to not go up to the register with half a cart of standard items and my head not going probably $40-50, only to see $130 when I went to tap my card. :lol:

WFH Mandates

Reading comprehension. I am not against WFH, I am against the government saying you have to work from home. I am all for the free market dictating what roles are hybrid or able to WFH based on business and personal needs. I just don't like when big daddy government tells workplaces and churches they cannot meet.

Will the American people fall for this Hantavirus?
Only if there is a prospect of 1) Mail-In Ballots 2) WFH Mandates 3) Student Loan Payment Freezes 4) Extended Unemployment Benefits 5) Stimulus Checks. If anything even hints those could be on the table we will see widespread panician level propaganda, which the swamp and legacy media will prop up in lock-step to help push their agendas.

Nasty Nate is looking like Nasty Nate lately.

Need the bats to start to wake up. Lack of production from Jansen and Higgy, Joc and Burger, and Josh's funk have killed rallies when they were there. Top 5 ERA but bottom 5 run production. The good news is that the bats should be better with this lineup. The bad news is this is the same song and dance from last year.
