baseball player at my high school broke his arm on a non-contact play, and he ended up having bone cancer. Seems really odd for a leg to be that weak.


Yeah id be really worried at that age and ability to break a bone that easily.

Either a preexisting injury, genetic defect or cancer. That was awful

Evans has it. His first year focusing on pitching was last year. His first year of pitching as a college starter, ace, Friday night guy is today. Cooper Moore may disappoint me, but I feel like he could be a Friday night guy, too. Not discounting Schmidt, Noot, Paz, etc either. We have aces.


I think its hard for the casual and even slightly more than casual LSU baseball fan given the drop off compared to what Anderson and Eyanson ended last year on :lol:
Its called classic early season baseball.

Credit the pitcher for hammering that spot, but that one and the one to Curiel weren't strikes.

Just started watching. This threads been fun. Same ole same old with idiots and early season baseball.

However, this ump blows

The whole "we're resigning from these AI companies because we're scared of the future" bit is cute, too. Totally not because they aren't making enough money to cover costs.


Problem with AI is you build technical debt when you can jr developers and then eventually get it to a point where it can get rid of mid range developers...sr developers stay for review purposes to make sure AI is doing its thing correctly via coding (troubleshooting)...then you've fired the future of your company and have to rehire as people retire or leave...and those people may or may not be better programmers because most of the younger generation is all in on AI without actually knowing programming and logic skills (i.e. vibe coders)

ETA: I cant tell you how many times ive schooled the younger generation when it comes to debugging. Its a quirk you learn when you are actually involved deeply in learning a language or system. The younger folks dont have the patience or resolve to go through that stage because AI can surely figure it out eventually after a bunch of prompts

Solid take. I never thought anything would happen with this, but it would have been a plus for me if it miraculously did :lol:
Should be easy to bribe Murkowski, the Alaska federal delegation loves when Fedgov gives them more pork :lol:

ETA: HOWEVER, this would pose huge issues for rural Alaskans (particularly natives who live in the villages) from voting...so maybe not. Those folks cant afford nor care about a passport. Many of them just have tribal IDs issued by Bureau of Indian affairs (i.e. not even a DL)

If you find it share it. Im genuinely curious because in general Federal judges (except in limited circumstances the Supreme court) have no jurisdiction over military court martials...so this must not be that kind of case if true :lol:

This is where I differ a bit. Most high school pitchers are done after HS. I am ok w high volume for many of them, especially late in the year.


I mean I get this but at the same time, I also dont have anything left in my right shoulder...and am basically living in pain until I finally get fed up and do surgery. Im sure there are a bunch of us adults in our mid to late 30s and beyond with the same issue.

Like the long-term health problem doesn't just get massaged away because most kids arent going pro or college :lol:

It'd be like if only the college eligible football players in HS had special helmets to prevent concussions but you didnt do that for the non college prospects.

Man you hire shite people

You know how many high functioning folks in perfectly normal jobs smoke weed?

Take the number in your head a double it :lol:

Some people are just trashy and dont have the common decency to not smoke it around others or announce it to the world. There are soooo many discrete users you'd never suspect. In many ways, similar to a functional alcoholic when it gets bad enough. However, most folks in these positions just use it to take the edge off, just like all the fricking SSRIs they get people hooked on.

You want public resources (think national parks, wildlife refuges, etc) managed by private entities?

Sure the State could takeover management...but for most natural resource like stuff the State gets their monies from the Feds :lol:
