@oskeeburner If these are the dark days, then clearly the 17 loss streak in the 90s or the Beckman era must have been the end of the world. We get spoiled way too quickly and forget how terrible we’ve been for most of 35 years.

@ruddy_kitty @PokeDuelsTikTok As a parent of 2 juniors, I think this is the best approach. Most of the time, younger players are just ignorant of their mistakes.

@B1B_Lancer @AdamKinzinger The president dismissed the entire board last month and the current head was his nominee. Safe to say it's his agenda. Also, that isn't what the report stated. They wanted to investigate the next iteration of the project. It's on page 8 of the report. https://t.co/FDP1UdkaWh

@RealJohnWalter It’s not the case. There aren’t any in the hall but there are working ones in the center just outside the doors.

@Ecnerwal23 As someone who lives in a blue square downstate, thank you.

@PokeDuelsTikTok It's a super hard thing to enforce if you went that route. I used to play a game where they banned IDs and people just mutually stalled until it tied at time out so then new rules to enforce players to try to win were introduced. It's a tough nut to crack.

@HaleyTCG Reminds me of my binder of baseball cards from when I was a kid. I got a Becketts every month and had little price tags on my cards. Every generation has it's collectable vise it seems.

@mgintheoc @andrewdottxt @Vayseth_ It really isn't. It's pretty much in line with behavior with how referees behave in every major sport. You don't undermine other officials' calls; especially when you have nothing to do with the incident. And it's in the code of conduct you don't comment when you aren't involved.

@VantaJay It's not criticism of the company that was the problem. It was that he wasn't involved.

@TheBenPeck @WatchMarquee @FBI I hope he was just channeling his inner Cameron for skip day. If not, Agreed.

@GurthwormChi @PatMcAfeeShow Why? Because us citizens refuses to pay for a multi-billion dollar stadium for a multi-billion dollar franchise. F that noise. I'm glad the state is taking a stand and refusing to make us pay for it.

@slammtam They are on Matt Dinniman's website. https://t.co/klYbl9gSYo The audio books and the immersive audio are super good too although the immersive version only has book 1 right now. 2 and 3 are coming soon. https://t.co/eiLUqSTTSv
