Asinine Conspiracies

HA! Reminds me of arguments in my house. Usually parents vs. kids.
I say an argument is "won" when shit goes the way I say it's going to go. "Do your homework." I win the argument when the homework is done. "Go to bed." I win the argument when the kid goes to bed.
She says the argument is "won" when everyone agrees with her. There isn't a "Do your homework" from her. It's "Here's why you need to do your homework and I'm going to keep lecturing you until you understand and agree." Very frustrating.
Anyway, they say not to talk about religion or politics with people. I think it's because you really can't present any facts in either case that people will allow to change their minds. According to that video I linked, I guess most people aren't intelligent enough to accept someone else's viewpoint on these things.

Well, Dub, have always marveled how at the end of an (any) argument, it's always my fault, even when she dented my car with hers, as I was parked in the driveway, waaaay over to my side....other issues as well. Maybe we do need a female as President, against Iranians, Russians, Chinese, etc.

Accountability is a woman's kryptonite.. I too have been amazed at how many times that my wife lost an earring and it was somehow my fault. This is why I don't argue with them I just listen until they're down cackling then I walk away and forget it.

Ha.
My son was in the bathroom, pooping. Not a toddler, potty training. He was probably 14 or 15 at the time. My wife walked in on him. That was my fault.
True story.


Still undefeated

Ohio State Men's Tennis (2014/2019/2024 ITA Indoor National Champs, 20 Straight B1G Titles)

Bestbuck, am I correct in thinking a win at the lower seeds counts as much as one at the top? Only ask because of the order in which they play. Doubles, then seed #1, #2, etc? Or maybe reverse?
Yessir but it seems to me that all the best have stellar talent at the top. If our 3-6 man up we got a chance this year to win it all. @gracelhink am I thinking clearly on this one?

Ohio State Men's Ice Hockey (2019 B1G Champions)

Indications are that we're stepping up to play the NIL/portal game.

Ohio State and Michigan State also added the portal’s highest-drafted players. OSU added sophomore defenseman Sascha Boumedienne, in a surprise move away from Boston University;


And then this stat, which measures the net portal effect (quality lost to quality coming in) We're +57 on his scale.

BP Fantasy Baseball est. 2008 (Current Champion = Ahiacitian)

I don't have any big injuries on my team really.

Yahbot usually drafts pretty well then I fuck it up as the season goes along.

This year, wow...Yahbot had a rough draft.

:quitty:
Well part of that was I made a list of every one I wanted to actually draft and then drafted the guy one spot above or below him. I probably REALLY messed shit up for you....

Can this be an OHIO STATE license plate of some kind.

Gemini says:

Based on its design, colors, and dimensions, this is a 1914 Ohio motorcycle license plate.

Here are the specific details that identify it:

  • Jurisdiction & Year: In 1914, the state of Ohio issued motorcycle plates with this specific orange-on-white color scheme.
  • Design: The "OH" stacked vertically on the left was the standard abbreviation used by Ohio for motorcycle plates during that era.
  • Material: These plates were made of porcelain-enameled steel, which gives them that distinct glossy, heavy finish and embossed look visible in the photo.
  • Size: You can see from the ruler at the bottom that the plate is approximately 8 inches wide. This smaller size (compared to a standard 12-inch car plate) confirms it was intended for a motorcycle.
During the early 20th century, license plate colors changed every year to help police quickly identify if a vehicle's registration was current. These porcelain plates are highly collectible today because they don't rust or fade as easily as the stamped metal plates that followed.
Thanks for the effort. Running with this and will report back.

SF Colin White (transfer to ???)

Mayhaps he's getting in some court time, and back in portal after a 19 ppg, 9 rebs year. Getting recruited, or portaled over gives one an indication that he's good enough to come in, but not get heavy minutes. Heck, I'd skedaddle too. Doubt that MAC money is equal to what he's getting at tOSU, but we all love to play the game, not watch from the pine.
