@thefernandocz He also bet Billions on the Metaverse and you see how that worked out.

[Northside Bestside @KilgoreTodd]

Lots of issues here but @cavs game are blacked out on @NBATV in the city of Pittsburgh. Not a single person in PGH believes they are In-market to anything in Cleveland. It’s absurd. Will tomorrow’s playoff game be blacked out in Pittsburgh? @KDPomp do you know?

@ISeeAndHearYinz @BSrivastava @reflog18 @cavs @NBATV @NBA @WhiteHouse @FBI @ColumbusPolice Here we go again! No logic because you can’t watch on a local channel. @NBA what the hell

[Strenuously Objecting ⚖️ @ISeeAndHearYinz]

@BSrivastava @reflog18 @cavs @NBATV @NBA @WhiteHouse @FBI @ColumbusPolice Blacked out in Pittsburgh too! It's fucking ridiculous! #LetEmKnow

@D3Direct For my son, direct reach out followed by letting coaches know what camps he would be going to. For example the Penn camp was a good one.

[Rick Gardinier ⚾ @gardinier]

@tomfgoodwin 100% agree. Have never gone to CES or SXSW in 30 years in the business. Wayste of time and money for most unless you are there with clients as part of relationship building.

@PGHBB @ChrisRose No Levert or Wade too

[Bill Madden @maddenifico]

Holy shit! Bruce Springsteen, with one of the most eloquent endorsements for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz you'll hear. The Boss also delivered one of the strongest repudiations of the loathsome piece of shit I've heard from anyone. Let's fucking go‼️🙌🌊🇺🇸

Regardless of your side (I side with Kamala), the digital and social campaigns by the Harris marketing team are extremely impressive. Targeting multiple audiences, highly authentic and engaging content, great email content etc etc.

[Democratic Wins Media @DemocraticWins]

BREAKING: Kamala Harris just announced the largest digital ad reservation American political history. This campaign will reserve more than $370 million in ads targeting key voters in swing states from Labor Day through election day. Donald Trump isn’t ready for this heat.

[R/GA @RGA]

X has filed a lawsuit arguing that choosing not to advertise on X is breaking the law. Which tells you a little bit about why fewer people are choosing to advertise on X.

[Rick Gardinier ⚾ @gardinier]

@WalshFreedom It's breaking through and simple to understand...and true. My concern is overuse but for now it seems to be getting way under their skin.

[Rick Gardinier ⚾ @gardinier]

.@NBA @NBATV why are @cavs games often blacked out in Pittsburgh? Makes no sense to consider Pgh a home market as there is no local station that carries them in Pittsburgh.

[Rick Gardinier ⚾ @gardinier]

@Carnage4Life Once everyone can get out of their leases then remote is less costly. But for now, as long as companies are locked in to long term leases their cost structure doesn’t change even if 100% remote.

[Rick Gardinier ⚾ @gardinier]

@SCrepresent12 That’s the @QVBasketball way.

[Rick Gardinier ⚾ @gardinier]

Same!

[Brittany @ColdAsYouTV13]

@Ask_Spectrum I would like to know why a TV app outage affects internet services and why we can’t activate the new router we just received because of it.

[Rick Gardinier ⚾ @gardinier]

@jowyang @EMostaque The internet took 30 years to get where we are today. And there are STILL mainframe programmers here and there. The developer job will continue to evolve but someone has to write the code that AI learns from there will still need to be people to guide all of these new tools.

[Rick Gardinier ⚾ @gardinier]

@JimHammett Almost pulled the trigger at 3:30 on tickets and this was the sole reason that I didn’t. Sad that’s it’s like that but Blossom in Cleveland not any better.

[Quaker Valley Basketball @QVBasketball]

We believe it goes…”The 1st shot won’t beat #US, box out and don’t let them get a better chance on the put back!” #CoachMastroianni

[Rick Gardinier ⚾ @gardinier]

@cameronmoll @tomfgoodwin Agree. Feels like both can be true. Overhyped like a lot of things at first, highly transformational in the long term.

I’m old enough to have worked through the incredible .com hype, then bust, then long slow growth to what the www is today.

[Rick Gardinier ⚾ @gardinier]

@tomfgoodwin LOL I remember back in 1993 I was teaching “how to surf the World Wide Web” classes to Fortune 500 companies.
