![]() I don’t have the answers to any of these questions, so let’s move on to the drink itself. Why is it so prominent? Do they really think I’m going to care that my Bug Juice is made in the U.S.A., when there’s so much more going on here? Most obviously, what is it doing there? It has nothing to do with my interesting insect friends. I have several questions about that flag. There’s also a giant American flag, which I didn’t immediately notice in the store, being all absorbed in the potential mishaps of the Bug Brigade. Let’s ignore the “especially for kids” part and get to the real meat: FROM THE JUNGLES OF THE GREAT NORTH COAST! Which coast? What continent? These guys are getting more interesting all the time! What a cast of characters! Who knows what kinds of wacky adventures they’ll get into next? We don’t know a whole lot about their backgrounds, but I did find this: There’s also some sort of scared worm, but he seems to be more of a bit player. The label is adorable – there’s a polka-dotted bee…thing, a vampire-fanged spider (obviously the villain in the cartoon tie-in – I mean look at those eyebrows), a humble ladybug that may or may not have been poisoned by Fangs Eyebrow, and that obviously drunk guy at the bottom that my Internet research tells me must be some sort of centipede/millipede hybrid. Maybe that’s true, but hey – it was 8am, I was hungover, and I bought it. On first glance, it seems to be nothing more than a novelty kid’s drink, no more original than those little plastic baby bottles filled with candy that make me vaguely uncomfortable for some reason. Bug Juice – is it truly a junk food, you ask? Maybe not per se, but as I examined this little gem in the beverage section of my local convenience store, I just couldn’t resist its charms.

![]() But Newton was never that big of a scrambler to begin with-at least compared to other mobile quarterbacks around the league. The 32-year-old’s waning athleticism has taken a toll on his scrambling ability. Last season, Lamar Jackson was the only quarterback who ran for more yards on designed carries, and Newton led all QBs with a dozen rushing touchdowns, per Pro Football Focus. His 40 time has slowed down by a 10th or two, but he’s still a major threat on the ground who will elevate any run game you drop him into. If Newton’s arm is indeed back to where it was before the shoulder injury, then the biggest difference between this version of him and the one who led the Panthers to a Super Bowl appearance after the 2015 season is probably his speed. There aren’t many quarterbacks in the league who do. The Newton we saw from 2018 to 2020 didn’t have that in him. That one play should answer any questions about the health of his shoulder. ![]() He looked spry in the pocket, and it seemed like he made more downfield throws in three August games than he had in all of 2020. It’s easy to write that off as best-shape-of-my-life offseason hype, but Newton’s preseason tape corroborates the claim. This offseason, the now-jobless quarterback boasted he was healthy for the first time since he suffered a shoulder injury late in 2016. And now that he’s coming off an impressive preseason in which he looked like a throwback version of himself, it would seem he’s in prime position to eventually get another shot at starting in the league. Sure, he didn’t play great football in 2020-few Patriots players did-but even that hobbled version of the former All-Pro was still clearly one of the 32 best quarterbacks in the league. Assuming he doesn’t land a starting job elsewhere, Newton will instantly become the league’s best backup QB the moment he signs with his next team. While those two theories make a lot of off-field sense, from an on-field perspective, cutting Newton wasn’t a logical move. But now that the Patriots have elevated rookie quarterback Mac Jones to the top of the depth chart, it made very little sense to have a big personality like Newton around, which could possibly undermine Jones’s status as the most important player on the team. Players have gravitated toward Newton throughout his career. By all accounts, the 2015 NFL MVP instantly took on a leadership role when he arrived in New England last season, which was hardly a surprise. If we take the Pats coach at his word, then the most logical explanation for the team cutting ties with Newton is his presence in the locker room. It’s Mac Jones’s Moment in New England Cam Newton’s Release Begins a New Era for the Patriots ![]() “No, we have other players on the team who aren’t vaccinated,” Belichick said. But in a Wednesday press conference, Belichick said that Newton’s vaccination status had nothing to do with the team’s decision. All in all, it would have been understandable if Belichick didn’t want to take any chances by having an unvaccinated starter at the most important position on the roster. Newton also missed time last season after a bout with the coronavirus, which coincided with a downward spiral for the Patriots offense. The sequence of events suggested that Newton was not vaccinated against COVID-19 unvaccinated players are subject to stricter protocols and quarantines should they be exposed to the virus. Just last week, Newton missed five days of training camp practices after a “misunderstanding” led to a violation of the NFL’s testing protocols. Newton’s vaccination status was the most popular of the two. The two most widely held theories had little to do with football. It seemed most people had a take or a theory ready about why head coach Bill Belichick cut the quarterback he insisted was his starter for most of the offseason and had at the top of his depth chart all preseason. The news of Cam Newton’s release from the Patriots was shocking, but it didn’t catch anyone off guard. ![]() The chess pro didn’t let the uncertainty and unpredictability deter him, though. When he first started streaming, he said, the chess side of Twitch was “like the Wild West” with just a few streamers, none of whom seemed to know what they were doing. ![]() Rozman created his Twitch channel back in February 2018, for no other reason than he was bored and needed something to do after he got home from teaching. obviously, with all this explosion, it’s becoming that. “For me, was definitely not the primary source of income. ![]() I was teaching chess Monday through Sunday,” Rozman explained to In The Know. With more than 206,000 followers, the 25-year-old New York City native turned streaming - or, if you ask his father, “high- tech panhandling” - into a full-time gig in 2020, something that felt unfeasible just a year prior.Ī post shared by Levy Rozman wasn’t streaming full-time until 6 months ago. One of the biggest chess streamers on Twitch - the third most popular, according to TwitchMetrics - is Levy Rozman, aka Gotham Chess. In December, the average chess stream was bringing in more than 16,000 concurrent viewers, and interest in the 1,500-year-old game doesn’t appear to be letting up. At the beginning of quarantine, the game was far from popular: According to Twitch Tracker, the average chess streamer at the time received just 3,573 concurrent viewers.Īs COVID-19 spread like wildfire, though, so did interest in the game, thanks in large part to grandmaster Hikaru Nakamura becoming more active on the platform and the popularity of Netflix’s coming-of-age chess drama, The Queen’s Gambit. However, during these unprecedented times, a much, much older game also started to pick up steam: chess.Ģ020 was a pivotal year for chess. Many of the channels and creators that became household names amid quarantine played previously popular video games like Fortnite, Minecraft and World of Warcraft. Unsurprisingly, one of the companies that saw extreme success was Twitch: From March to April alone, the platform saw a 50 percent increase in hours spent watching its videos, according to StreamElements. Though many industries suffered in 2020 as a result of lockdowns and quarantine orders nationwide, others capitalized on the shift to spending more time indoors, at home and online.

He has the disposition for high-leverage work. For now, however, Alzolay looks like a stand-in for the fireman role that belonged to Keegan Thompson for much of last season and the first fortnight of this one. Bringing him in to chase a win from behind on Wednesday afternoon only becomes a more glaring error by Ross in light of the need to use him again Friday night. The Cubs' bullpen remains in flux, and Alzolay can't pitch every day. Part of that is that he's tightened the break on that pitch this year a bit, making it harder to see and distinguish for lefties, but another part is that he's emerged from this spring with better feel than he's ever shown in the majors before. Meanwhile, he's gotten comfortable throwing his slider against them. ![]() It's not gone, but he only goes to it late in counts, and then only sparingly. The power of his arsenal puts hitters on the defensive, and withholding his slider until he's ahead and can leverage it best is paying dividends, too.Īgainst lefties, note that he's nearly scrapped his changeup. Against righties, he's as likely to throw his sinker as his four-seamer, and nearly as likely to throw his cutter as to throw either. Those signify that, be it on the first pitch and with the batter ahead or with the pitcher ahead and with two strikes, a pitcher is finding an understanding of how their pitch mix best works within the context of situation and encounter with a hitter.Īlzolay is doing that, but he's doing more, too. It's an oversimplification, but any time you visit a pitcher's Pitch Usage tables on Brooks Baseball, it's a good idea to look for the double red and/or double blue box pairs. Here's what he's doing with his mix in 2023. He also didn't seem comfortable throwing the cutter against righties, and heavily favored his four-seamer over his sinker. He wasn't confident utilizing his slider against lefties, or his changeup against righties, but he was dependent on each pitch against the other type of opponent. Note that, functionally, he was going slider-fastball to righties, and fastball-cutter-changeup to lefties. Here's how Alzolay deployed his repertoire in 2022. That has changed several times since, but now he's firming up his pitch mix-and it's a pretty wild collection of stuff. Once, he was viewed as a four-seam fastball guy, with a curveball and changeup as his best secondary offerings. He had to overcome multiple injuries, but he also had to withstand multiple changes to his repertoire. From when he first cracked prospect radars in 2017, he's been a known tinkerer-or, considered from a different angle, an unfortunate guinea pig in the Cubs' inconsistent and shifting pitching development system. That elongated what had already been a painful process of setting him up for success in the majors. The fit of Alzolay's intensity, swagger, and intelligence to this kind of role has been apparent for two years now, but he got a last shot at starting during the woeful transition period of 2021. That was more than the WPA he amassed even in his two-inning save against the Rays earlier this week. ![]() He only threw six pitches, but added 0.375 in Win Probability, according to FanGraphs. Then he struck out Fernando Tatis, Jr., thwarting the Padres' scoring chance and roaring off the mound with the minatory exuberance that is becoming his signature. Instead, Alzolay got into the kitchen of Xander Bogaerts, inducing a double play. The Padres had runners on first and second with nobody out, and the runner on first would have been the go-ahead tally for San Diego. Unlike in those previous two outings, though, Alzolay took the mound this time in the middle of a very dirty inning. After his strong showing in the second half of last season, though, he's asserted himself even more forcefully in 2023, and this version of him feels an awful lot like a relief ace with staying power.įriday night was the third straight game in which David Ross called upon Alzolay, late in close contests. Inconsistency and injury conspired with the COVID pandemic to keep Alzolay in limbo until near the end of 2022. It feels as though it took forever for Adbert Alzolay to matriculate from top prospect status to established big-leaguer. ![]() The Ringmaster uses a mirror, he claims to be the Google in the magical world, and finds out that Aladin is destined to protect the lamp. We find out that The Ringmaster wants the lamp for himself to get back his powers from which he was exiled due to selfish reasons. The rock-star Genius finds out its too late as our baddie The Ring Master (Sanjay Dutt an ex genie) is in town looking for the lamp as well. Enter Genius (Amitabh Bachchan) a cheerful lively genie who is eager to grant Aladin's 3 wishes and go on a vacation. At Alladin bday bash, held by Qasim (Sahil Khan - Lead bully) to impress Jasmine, Aladin is gifted yet another lamp this time by Jasmine from an antiques shop. Aladin keeps making a fool of himself whenever she is around but somehow she finds it cute I guess. Of course our protagonist falls in love with her on first sight. Enter lady love Jasmine (Jacqueline Fernandez - OMG she is soo cute) a friendly US return. His miserable life continues to be the same when he enters college as well. He is asked to rub fake lamps by the bullies every time he is spotted. The movie starts off normally in a city called Khwaish (fictional city of course) showing Aladin (Ritiesh Deshmukh) a loser orphan being bullied by kids in school just because his name is Aladin. As I mentioned the story is completely revamped to suit the Indian audience as in the original cartoon movie Jaffer dupes Aladin into looking for the lamp whereas here Aladin was destined to have it. I think it was the chemistry they shared in Kaante long back ago. Now I believe that is not the only reason these two extraordinary people where requested to grace the characters with their names. He had this evil aura around him every time he came on the screen that was very impressive. The same logic was applied to Sanjay Dutt playing The Ring Master. The audience need to feel the Aura he normally emits in any movie. The answer is playing a genie required screen presence. Now some of us may question why would a guy like Big B of such high caliber be in a kiddie movie prancing around playing magical pranks. Amitabh Bachchan playing The Genie - Genius and our very own Sanjay Dutt plays The Ringmaster - An Ex-Genie. We had 2 huge names playing strong characters. But as you know he went ahead and took the risk anyway. Somehow I have a feeling that Sujoy very well knew that this movie will not be exactly appreciated by majority of the crowd. In Aladin the story was completely revamped to suit the Indian movie enthusiasts. The former being something very down to earth for a movie freak to relate to and the latter, although an outright copy from a french movie still made a good impression. Yes its a love story as well but isn't almost every movie made in bollywood a love story? Now Sujoy Ghosh has had a impressive stint with Jhankaar beats and Home Delivery. ![]() I mean just because it is a hindi film, do you really need 6 or 7 songs? If it is a fantasy or super hero flick, why not make it more realistic and darker (say like dark knight or batman begins).Aladin : Sujoy Ghosh Budget: INR 50 Cr This movie produced, directed and written by Sujoy Ghosh comes as a welcome change from the regular run around the trees. I think one thing the makers need to keep in mind is to make sure they don’t take the viewers for granted which is what seems to be happening here. However, with all of the songs and everything, Krrish had a gripping story line towards the second half showing us how Krishna becomes Krrish. There was an exception of Krrish (if you consider it a fantasy flick it is more of a super hero film). While that is important and an interesting promotional strategy, it seems like that’s their main way of promoting the film.Īnother example of such a film was Drona which was also idiotic and a huge box office disaster. ![]() They seem to take the audience for granted and are promoted on how much money the makers used on special effects. They seemed for a lack of a better word silly. It was apparent ever since the first promos released. ![]() If you can afford it and and you are looking for a separate device, go for the best: The NVIDIA Shield TV (Pro).

Reaper appeared at his destination in a quick burst of shadow. Now I'm going to put the plan into action." And with that he left, practically running through the doors and down the spiral staircase. If anyone asks, I'll just say I'm part of an extensive promotional campaign for the new movie."Īmmon took a moment to process the information, then nodded. Since it's October, naturally there's a new movie out in the Death Reaper series. Reaper stood up and trudged to the door, brushing imaginary dust off of his robe. Reaper, won't people question a skeleton perusing the local stores?" If Ammon still had eyebrows, he probably would've raised one of them. "I think I'll look around in some stores for newer, more grim boots." And by a little, I mean yes."Īmmon chuckled drily. "No, of course not!" Reaper snapped, but then he looked away. Reaper, I heard the end of that conversation. Suddenly the door opened again, and a well-dressed mummy stepped inside. Reaper let himself fall down into his armchair, putting his hands together contemplatively. "Goodbye, grandpa." Reaper's grandpa nodded, then turned and strolled out of the room. The other skeleton stood up and stretched. I don't need to be an edgy Grim Reaper like you were." Reaper stood up and folded his arms defiantly. ![]() "But do they fit your occupation? Like I said, you're the Grim Reaper. "What? Of course! I wear these all the time." He discreetly kicked the edge of his robes over the bright yellow rain boots. Reaper tilted his head and gave an offended gasp. Sk, more to be added but pff, I’m lazy, ask questions IG and I’ll try to answer."Those boots.are you sure they're really, I don't know, FITTING, for a Grim Reaper?" asked the skeleton. That damn cloak, I mean, it morphed with his signature trench coat so Dib ain’t the biggest fan of taking it off, and that’s how shit in cartoons be, always the same clothes, so pf.I guess he does wear it to Skool but I dunno. He can also remove peoples souls but he’s too kind for that so sk, Right, so Dib can now do cool shit with peoples souls, he can send people to Hell or Heaven for a lil while but he can’t make it permanent. My boi can float now, he’d probably see how high he could float up until he dies. Yep, since Dib is the Grim Death boi, he has to guide souls to Heaven or Hell, while balancing his school life between it all. No clue what the fuck it does.Scratch that, he could probably cut your head off with it. I mean, of course our Dibby boi needs his grimmy powers because he deserves to be omnipotent so yep. Zim does find out eventually, but he still thinks he’s the superior race (is Grim Reaper a race?) and is just a lil’ miffed about not being able to call Dib any insult involving the word human. I mean, he does try and show people he is The Grim Reaper but y’all know the world don’t play like that so he just gets teased because ‘wtf, that’s creepy’ and assholes really be playing like that so in the end he just keeps it a secret. Then the spell runs out because it was a timer IG and he’s back to the real world but now he has to guide dead people to the Underworld or Heaven every week or so, so that’s fun, (Un)fortunately, shit can’t be undone because The Grim Reaper ain’t got his Grimmy powers to take out his soul and Dib still has 0 idea what the fuck is going on. ![]() So they do it and now there is no GrimReaper because The Grim Reaper now has a soul so the world flips off Dib and now he is the Grim Reaper with powers and shit skrr, but he doesn’t like it because he wants to be normal human Dib tryna live his alien-catching life. The Grim Reaper is a lil shook but yeah Dib asks him to visit Earth for like an hour, but Grim is like ‘no’ and Dib says ‘I’ll give ya my soul if you do’ because my boy is desperate :tm: and yeah, Grimmy boi is convinced because he’s souless and just wants to stop being the GrimBoi IG. ![]() So Dib goes ahead and does the spell and shit bing bang boom, he faints and wakes up in a white void with bing bang boom, you guessed it, The Grim Reaper. Dib has basically given up trying to unmask Zim (don’t worry, he’s still a paranormal addict) but he finds out about this spell that was said to ‘let people meet Death’ whatever that’s supposed to mean Haha, I know legitimately nothing about The Grim Reaper so this will be inaccurate, all I got was Scythe and Death but skk, I want my Dibby boi to do this.Īh, well this whole fiasco starts like, when Dib is 14 or smth, Zim is still there trying (and failing) to take over the world. mainly for me so my forgetful ass doesn’t forget but you can read it IG. |
