Saw a 14u kid hit a 350 foot dinger today using a green goblin corked with racquet balls today.

Our 15u (w/ 4 14-years olds) hung tough with a legit AAA (is that what they call it in 16u???) but lost 4-0. They made every play. They’re call the KS Curve and their uniforms were awesome and looked just like Clemson. Then that team proceeded to pants some poor saps from Bartlesville to the tune of 15-0. They scored 8 runs and had the bases loaded before the other team recorded the first out of the game. Was 11-0 after one.

Then we played the Bartlesville and also beat them 13-0 after 3.5.

Imagine driving all that way to get clobbered 0-28 in two games then stay in a hotel and wake up to play tomorrow morning at 8:30. Awesome!


They had a lady assistant coach that was almost unbearable (imo to her own team). At one point when we were up 8-0 their left fielder was playing about 10 feet from the line. I’ve never seen a gap that big in all my life and no one even noticed. After a couple of batters I was like “you guys might want to shift left field a tad.”

yeah, youth baseball is nuts. I told the 1B today that he probably didn't want to be holding our runner on 1B while we had the bases loaded and he looked at me like I was rough ridin' with him. just trying to help here (for some reason) bro. looked to the dugout but they were a "paid" staff and weren't interested in me talking to their kid. ok boys.make that check.

Horrible pool play today. Tied the best team in it and then lost to a team we beat 9 out of 10 times. Baseball I guess. Consolation bracket isn’t going to know what hit it at 8AM TOMORROW LMAO THUMBS DOWN.

other than losing muscle as well as fat, i haven't heard of a single concern re. glp-1 use.  on the contrary, every story that comes out on them is is like "welp, we found another thing these drugs cure without even trying".


i think i'm gonna try to buy some of the oral version the next time i'm in mexico.

Oh look, another thing these miracle drugs do

honestly I'd prefer being around a giant group of KS Nascar fans to what I imagine the Euro F1 fan archetype to be. maybe I'm being a bigot towards slimy, smelly euros here though.

Are you afraid their avant garde fashion will make you feel inferior?

no, I grew up around nascar fans so their clothing is not too big a deal to me

Sure don't hear as many "the earth is only 5000 years old" people these days, do we?

I see a lot of them on western ks social media actually. This stuff doesn’t phase them.

my kid has mlb the show and makes his player lift weights to hit more nukes so I look at the tv and his player is lifting weights. so basically what I'm saying is if you need a Billy Beene type ringer for your team my kid seems to have the goods.

Essentially Flyertalk / Re: New Mattress (MASTER SLEEP THREAD)

« on: May 17, 2024, 10:24:47 AM »

SD you have me down a rabbit hole here. 8 sleep almost had me until I saw the required monthly subscription. I'm a hard pass on a $2500 mattress top that also requires a $15 a month subscription. Sleep number has a topper that has decent reviews, but also reviewing the chilipad. Mrs SF is pretty adamant about whatever I get covering both sides since she thinks it would be weird having a top on just half the bed even if she uses the features or not.

Sometimes this bbs saves me monies, sometimes this bbs costs me monies. 

Subscription is only required for year 1. I’ll probably keep paying it though if it’s doing all that good crap rusty talked about though.

I would for sure not hesitate to recommend the chilipad. That’s who made my Ooler and it ruled. Just not enough savings for me to get instead of the 8sleep though.
