I'm gonna need a TV series in the style of Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations, but it's Jágr and Luongo touring the globe and dropping in on beer leagues

[Micah Blake McCurdy @IneffectiveMath]

Jágr playing his last season, huh? We'll see about that.

My notifications exploding over this old tweet was a weird way to find out about the HHOF inductions. Still stands though

[Alex Novet @AlexNovet]

Colin Campbell used his authority to influence referees and complain about penalties called against his son. His defense was that he didn't think anyone would find out. I'll never understand why that wasn't a Pete Rose-level banned-for-life level scandal

@iyer_prashanth me: IYER, IYER, IYER

nerds in the computer lab all look up from their spreadsheets: ... IYER, IYER, IYER

*deafening sound of Iyer chants echo across continent*

bloggers standing up in unison in their basements: IYER, IYER, IYER

What's incredible is that thanks to Lego's precise engineering and manufacturing processes, this tweet is compatible with all other tweets they've produced since 1932

@acthomasca Congratulations! They're lucky to have you

[Alex Novet @AlexNovet]

@emilyjomichele sounds good

[Alex Novet @AlexNovet]

@emilyjomichele My timeline secret is the use of a burner and some obscure features so that I can have a feed that's just "people I know personally took the time to write their own text" and nothing else

Holding out hope for the Utah Flamingoes

@IneffectiveMath I approve of your potential future existence in San Diego in strong terms

[Alex Novet @AlexNovet]

@IneffectiveMath Happy birthday, my friend! I hope you have a great one

[Alex Novet @AlexNovet]

@IneffectiveMath It's scheduled to rain tomorrow if that makes you feel better about missing out. And I'm working on two separate schemes to get me a trip to eastern Canada in the next year, so we shall see how those play out

San Diego Gulls targeting that coveted @DannyPage demographic

Somebody please layer this onto hockey data tysm

@emilyjomichele There have been a few analytics conferences that had a scrimmage the day afterwards. At the next one, we should recruit people to film this instead

[Alex Novet @AlexNovet]

@IneffectiveMath Teach for America is a very complicated endeavor, but its key insight was that mimicking the finance/consulting recruitment process landed them a ton of top graduates who wanted (2) and (3) with promises of (1) in the future

[Alex Novet @AlexNovet]

Excited to root for my favorite hometown hockey team, the Philadelphia Flislanders

[B/R Open Ice @BR_OpenIce]

An even better look at the Stadium Series jerseys 🔥

Thoughts? 🤔

[Alex Novet @AlexNovet]

@DannyPage I had not considered that the solution to data leakage was to rebrand it
