    Haha, I don't know what to make of this map. I'm actually in the 3rd now since we moved but used to be in the 5th. And they actually moved the South Philly border further south. So, if anything, you're gaining basically just the Republicans in Girard Estates and Packer Park. I don't expect MGS making anymore trips to South Philly, haha...

    Minor beef with this Abbot Elementary show is the older white teacher. I like the character in general. But I think she's trying to hard to mimic Kate Winslet's Delco accent.

    The italian broad? I think she's going for more of the "South Philly Tough Talkin'" thing here, while Winslet leaned into the long O's.

    Whatever that lady is funny. I'm not gonna nit-pick too much. Loved the Tire Iron guy coming in to talk to the kids. "The students have started collectively bargaining and now they all have pensions."

    I haven’t seen the show but my wife taught for 20 years and I used to go in on career day. I was pretty popular but my wife said the most popular guy was the vending machine guy….he had samples. he asked the kids where they had seen vending machines. one kid said “when we visit my brother in jail.”

    I'm just gonna assume everyone is watching Abbott Elementary...

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2HNZqfrCII
    it's on my list of shows to watch. i know t takes place around philly bans also supposedly pretty good show.


    i watched it, enjoyable. Didn't know it was a mockumentary sitcom. Don't think it is as funny as The Office or Parks and Rec but has its moments. Only actors I recognized were the sub (he played Chris Rock in Everybody Hates Chris) and the "old" teacher I recognized her name from some sitcoms from the 80's/90's.

    and if any you fuckers have Showtime the new series about Uber called Super Pumped started this week. 1st episode had 3 Pearl Jam songs in the episode. Thought it was pretty good start. Looks promising.

    Sounds like they are giving themselves today to hammer it out and start on time?

    I haven't gotten worked up about it. I didn't/don't see them missing games. Too much to lose.

    CBA seems very pro-owners though

    Yeah, seems like to me from everything that the owners know they can make just as much money having ~144-ish games as 162 so they don't mind.

    Thank god they didn't go to 14 teams for the playoffs though.

    Win your division go straight to division series seemed like a decent system. Oh well. Gotta make more cash.

    Funny - this is the exact scenario I thought was best last night. This is what I'd go with:

    Also, I feel the need to make a declaration. After much deliberation, and listening, the new Vedder album is......really, really good. Not quite what I'd want the next PJ album to be, but certainly more in the ballpark of what I've been wanting out of a PJ album since at least Avocado.
