The Oakland Athletics have been such an unapologetically for-profit, and for-profit only, team my entire life. Them saying "fuck the fans" has to be the expectation at this point.

Also, someone really needs to keep Manfred away from mics.

The Process ended when the #NBA ousted Hinkie and installed Colangelo. Simmons, Fultz, Smith, etc. were all part of the ‘post-Process’, when the #Sixers were starting to try to win. Everyone at #ESPN but Woj conveniently forgetting that is pretty annoying. In other words, the Process didn’t start falling apart until they started aggressively buying. The opposite of the Process. Watching the Flyers do it pretty much all my life with nothing to show for it has really turned me off to it. \

Look at all the players they gave up or let go, Butler, Bridges, Shamet, Curry, Thybulle, even Fultz could be a solid piece of maybe the 2nd unit. I think Shamet and Curry was the only player they really got anything back for…

The reality is, while depth is definitely more important today than even 10 years ago, basketball is still the sport where a single player can make the biggest difference. And you’re most likely to get that player, while not tearing apart your depth, in the top 5. \

Sounds like my Mastodon instance may be getting shut down. I think I'm just going to go down with the ship though. The beautiful thing about Mastodon, and probably it's biggest downfall, is that it doesn't force you to feel compelled to be on it. The lack of 'the algorithm'(and trying to only go on it for specific reasons) has really helped me to wean off of social media in general. So thanks for that Mastodon.

Looking in the mirror, I just realized I have the real-life equivalent of these eyebrows. (Thicker on the inside half, very thin on the outside half.) And I don't know how to feel about that. 😅 #RandomThoughts

@TonyStark Banning speech, especially in the legislature, is a knife in the heart of democracy in so many ways… the First Amendment and representative democracy to name a couple. It is a tool of authoritarians and fascists… and apparently Republicans.

Watching the Boston Marathon and getting nostalgic about the roads… 😅 With their weird patchwork, they look just like they do where I used to live. The area as a whole kind of does as well. It’s interesting, but I guess not surprising, how the Northeast kind of looks the same throughout. #BostonMarathon #RandomThoughts
