    - I don't think it was in or out calls, but our side thought they did several double hits (where 1 player touches it and then the other hits it over) - Beaker Apr 3, 07:32 1

    - It may have been just me being distracted watching it but I found it a bit confusing but otherwise excellent -- nm - oblique Apr 3, 07:42

"Blizzard’s new Diablo game is shaping up to be a surprise hit" Surprise? What you smokin', WSJ? -- nm - Easter Baron Apr 3, 06:01 3

LIR ty97, there is a treatment now to help make people not allergic to cillins anymore. My mom had it around 5 years ago. - sycor Apr 3, 05:24 2
- oh, very interesting! I'd never heard of this. -- nm - ty97 Apr 3, 05:29 1

I really need to consider looking at other auto insurance providers. car is 5yrs old, no claims, and my semi-annual bill increased by 10% -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 3, 04:44 5
- 10%, lol. -- nm - znufrii Apr 3, 06:06
- try Amica, they advertise and actually do only sell insurance to good drivers like you. -- nm - Pippy the Gifted Apr 3, 05:53
- They're making up for those discounts they handed out a few years ago when people weren't driving because of Covid. -- nm - Easter Baron Apr 3, 05:03

Guy jumps onfield at Dodger Stadium to propose to his girlfriend, gets absolutely rocked by security. -- (link) - Ender Apr 3, 03:29 [youtube] 10
- Well, she'll never forget how he proposed - -- nm - Spawn Apr 3, 08:18
- Good. Stay off the field. These are weird times. I'm not being paranoid when I say a ballgame is a prime place to "make a statement". -- nm - zunkskunk Apr 3, 08:18
- Dude did not need to be tackled, he wasn't going to be running away. -- nm - . Apr 3, 05:06
- He's claiming he got injured by that tackle and is talking to a lawyer. -- nm - Krusty Apr 3, 05:02 6
  - Ah, the “I fucked around but never expected to find out” defense. -- nm - spamlet Apr 3, 05:07 5
    - This is making me laugh repeatedly -- nm - JaxSean Apr 3, 07:04 1
      - yup -- nm - Beaker Apr 3, 08:23
    - I do think the tackle was overboard given he was kneeling with a box out for seconds. It wasn’t a split second action - Will Hunting Apr 3, 05:24 2
      - That's going to be the issue. They could have easily grabbed him without the need to tackle him so forcefully. I believe something similar happened -- (edited) - Krusty Apr 3, 06:01 1
        
        by firing him I'd suspect that would help the lawsuit and practically admitting what he did was wrong... -- nm - Beaker Apr 3, 06:05
