Still waiting for the studies to come out about how the Covid-19 restrictions, which lead to CO2 declines beyond any environmentalists's wildest dreams, lead to cooler temperatures and less climate change. Surely they are coming no?

Posted in: Ohtani says he never bet on sports; claims interpreter Mizuhara stole money, told lies See in context

Otani camp refusing to answer ESPN's question of which "authorities" they reported this "massive theft" too, after stating they had reported this to "the authorities". ESPN spoke with every "authority" they could think of from local police to the FBI and all of these authorities said Otani's camp had not contacted them. Things that make you go Hhhhmmm....

And by the way I don't care how rich you are, you know if $4.5mm is gone from your personal account or slush fund.

Posted in: Samsung unveils two new foldable smartphones See in context

I've had he flip 4 since it first came out and love it. I will wait until the Flip 6 to upgrade. Not seeing enough upgrades in the Flip 5 to justify the cost of changing from the flip 4 to flip 5, but the flip 5 does look cool. I can't imagine ever going back to a brick phone after using a Samsung flip.

"every time I see an Angels highlight it's like "Mike Trout hit three homes runs and raised his average to .528 while Shohei Ohtani did something that hasn't been done since 'Tungsten Arm' O'Doyle of the 1921 Akron Groomsmen, as the Tigers defeated the Angels 8-3".

Classic quote that continually applies.
