I am assuming that I am a big idiot, because no matter how many times someone explains Bitcoin to me, I still don't really get it.

There is bipartisan anger toward Robinhood in regard to their trade suspension. I think almost all Americans are united finally in delight to see the little guys organizing a screwing of the billionaire hedge fund class.

Pizza Hut to me is just terrible now. I agree with the others who thought it was great in the 90s and now it's just not the same. The breadsticks are still really good, but that's it. Dominos I think is pretty underrated. My kids prefer their pepperoni pizza above all others. I have also had their cheeseburger pizza, and it's good, but it's one of those pizzas you just want for 1 or 2 slices. My teenage son works at Rockys, so it's a little surprising we don't get it more. Their pizza is quite good, but not one you want to have leftover. Little Ceasars is also something you want to consume immediately and not eat leftover. Their deep dish is good. Papa John's is fine. Toppers is fine. Marcos is fine. I can eat all of these but none really stands out to me as better than others. We have a Politos in town and if we're getting pizza it's likely from here, getting one of their specialties and some garlic knots.

Isn't it all by this point? Hulu Live just gifted me my annual Christmas 10 dollar price increase. By the time you add in an add on or two, pretty much paying what I was paying for Dish Network a couple years ago.
-
Yep. Amazing how many people here hated this trade when it happened. I cringe more at people bowing to HighHeat19 like he really knew any more than the rest of us.

I may as well give Tiger King a try. I've literally been binging the 2002 version of The Twilight Zone.

At this point, I've got to assume Sinclair's pricing is getting out of control. Whatever the case may be, they'll continue to point the finger at each other all the while it's the consumer that's being punished. Glad I have Hulu Live.
-
It's hard for me to believe why anyone in the state of Wisconsin who is even remotely into Wisconsin sports would have Dish Network at this point. How could they not know how much damage that losing regional sports would do?
-
That's a huge benefit on the ability to legitimately share YouTube TV accounts. With streaming services starting to rival cable/satellite in terms of cost, sharing is the only way people are going to be able to stay ahead of the game.
-
If you're one of many that just needs TV for Wisconsin sports, you're almost better off living out of market. If I didn't live in Wisconsin, I'd just pay $122 a year for MLB TV, get a decent outdoor antenna installed for CBS, FOX, and NBC football games, and Reddit the few Packer games I can't get doing that.
-
Is that through Spectrum Mobile?
-
Not that I know this, I've just heard (*cough*), but Hulu Live is shareable with the unlimited screens plan. There's a catch, though, they have to be in the same zip code.
-
I'd have to trust you on that, then, I had Sling before that so I guess that must be different now. That sucks. I would never consider any provider that couldn't get me the Brewers. Unless I lived out of market and could just get MLBTV or Extra innings. I'm happy with Hulu Live but I've never had YouTube TV so I couldn't compare. I can't believe Dish would be willing to play with that kind of fire. You're already in a super competitive industry with many other similar platforms, and millions of viewers literally do not care about anything other than regional sports. Good luck with that.
-
Sling does not have FS Wisconsin. Yes they do. I had Sling. It's just not in their Orange package. That said, Sling sucks. I've been much happier with Hulu Live. But if you're looking for something cheaper and don't care about ESPN but need Brewer and Bucks games, Sling Blue gets the job done. I usually used the FSGO app with my Sling login because the feed on Sling wasn't good.

I know pineapple on pizza is a love it or hate it thing but I really am indifferent to it. It doesn't bother me, nor is it my favorite. I'll eat it.

We'll probably never know whether Smith was ever on the table for Dubon, but given the choice of a partial season of Smith or a partial season of Pomeranz, and 6 years of Black, I think I'd choose the latter. Given his age and lack of track record, I'm still not sure we get 1 more year of Black, let alone 6. I don't know what to make of Black so far. He's gotten the job done for the most part, but there hasn't been much substance to it. It's been a lot more pitching to contact than I would have expected. But if he can keep the walks low that is a good sign.
-
As someone who genuinely does try to see both sides I will point this out: Will Smith, 2nd half: 4.56 ERA, 1.44 WHIP, .849 OPS against Pomeranz since acquired: 3.06 ERA, 1.19 WHIP As someone who felt that they should have at least gotten Will Smith for Dubon I should concede that it is entirely possible that Smith for Dubon was on the table and David's due diligence on Smith from his analytics department and Smith's 2nd half history (he's a notorious 1st half player who is now injured) led him to prefer the Pomeranz/Black deal. With all that said, I'll reiterate that Dubon is seeing significant playing time for the Giants, is playing very well and would be seeing significant time for us as well right now if he was still here.
-
We acquired 5 cost controlled years of a league MVP player who is exceeding the MVP year in his second year and you're saying "time will tell"?! Blue chip prospect or not, Brinson is bordering on bust label. It's not too late for Diaz but he's been overmatched so far. Yamamoto is who he is. He could be a #5 at this level but we didn't give up Max Scherzer there. Harrison still could be something, but do you see a Yelich type HOF caliber career like Yelich in the cards for him? I hope all these Marlins go on to have successful careers, but come on. Time has already told.
-
I don't think it's about prospects in general being overrated, I think it's probably a lot more the very limited value the league obviously places on Dubon.

Turang has been pretty underwhelming just in High A much less thinking of him up to Milwaukee. He won't be near MLB ready in 2020, and most likely not even 2021.
-
Mostly because he's been pretty consistently not very good at baseball for 3+ years in the big leagues now.
-
Hahaha. Wow. This is an awful, awful trade. Even when I don't care for a Stearns trade much I'm usually in the camp of "let's see what happens", but trading Dubon for two DFA trade type guys...just wow. Just stand pat if you're making deals like this.
-
Random Yelich question now: If you could trade Yelich for any one, but only one player in MLB, would you do it? Straight up trade, with all existing club control and contract going to acquiring team.
