Flossing your teeth and then eating the food chunks you find .. is the equivalent of eating your own buggers as a kid

But I cant stop because when I pull a chunk out .. I really want to know what meal that came from. How old is it? How did it stay intact so well? Corn? I dont remember eating corn?

People still call the Patriots, Brady, and Belichick cheaters because they're just jealous of their success.

Spygate and Deflategate were bullshit started by loser franchises like the f***ing Colts and Jets.

"We only lost by 40 because the Patriots deflated their footballs." What nonsense.

what?

ball boy literally took balls (after officials checked them) into the bathroom

You can argue deflation helped small hands Tom Brady only a little bit

But you cant deny the level of intentional organized cheating Brady was doing
 
### The Choice of a Lifetime: Roki Sasaki's Journey

Roki Sasaki sat alone in his Tokyo apartment, the lights of the city sprawling before him like a vast, glittering sea. It had been weeks since the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays had made their offers, and the weight of the decision pressed heavily on him. The two franchises couldn't have been more different, yet both offered dreams he had nurtured since his days as a teenager dominating Japan's baseball diamonds.

The Dodgers were a juggernaut, a team steeped in history and championships, a perennial contender with a loyal fanbase and a sparkling reputation. The lure of Los Angeles, with its sun-soaked beaches, star-studded culture, and fervent baseball energy, was undeniable. Roki could see himself standing on the mound at Dodger Stadium, the Hollywood Hills in the distance, the cheers of tens of thousands of fans echoing in his ears.

But the Blue Jays had their own allure. Toronto was a city known for its multicultural vibrancy, a place where diversity was celebrated and every neighborhood told a story. The team itself was young and hungry, brimming with rising stars and a devoted fanbase spanning an entire country. Unlike the Dodgers, where he'd be a piece in an already well-oiled machine, Toronto offered him the chance to be a cornerstone—a hero leading them toward their first World Series in decades.

Roki leaned back, closing his eyes. His agent had laid out the facts countless times. The Dodgers offered the chance to play on baseball's grandest stage right away. Their scouts had gushed about his ability to slot into their rotation as the ace they needed for another championship push. Yet, there was an undercurrent of expectation that weighed on him. In Los Angeles, failure would not be tolerated. Could he truly thrive under that kind of scrutiny?

Toronto, on the other hand, had promised him room to grow and shine. Their general manager spoke passionately about Roki being the missing piece of their puzzle. "We don't just want you to win games, Roki," he'd said during their last video call. "We want you to make history with us." The thought of becoming a national hero, not just for one city but for an entire country, stirred something deep within him.

***

The decision wasn't just professional—it was deeply personal. Roki thought of his family, who had supported him through endless hours of practice and countless games. His parents had always emphasized honor and integrity over fame. "Go where you can make the biggest difference," his father had told him during a late-night call. "Not just for yourself, but for those who believe in you."

But where was that? The Dodgers, with their star-studded roster, offered a near-certain path to a championship. Yet Toronto’s faith in him felt more genuine. The thought of becoming a symbol of hope for an underdog team—a leader who could inspire fans across Canada—resonated in his heart.

***

The morning of his decision, Roki woke early. The sun was just beginning to rise, casting a warm glow over the city. He stood on his balcony, the contract offers spread out on the table behind him. One was written on the crisp blue letterhead of the Dodgers, the other bearing the bold maple leaf of the Blue Jays.

Finally, he picked up his phone. His agent answered almost immediately.

"I’ve made my choice," Roki said, his voice steady. "Call Toronto. Tell them I’m in."

The words felt like a release. He could almost hear the distant roar of the Rogers Centre, the sea of blue and white waving flags and banners, cheering his name. Roki smiled, envisioning himself on that mound in Toronto, pitching not just for a team, but for a nation.

He turned back to the city below, his heart lighter than it had been in weeks. The road ahead would be challenging, but Roki Sasaki had chosen the path that felt true to him. For the first time in a long while, he felt ready to embrace the future—his future, as a Toronto Blue Jay.

I'm arguing that the ensuing circus of an investigation happening after a game that was 45-7 is ridiculous.

The Colts, namely GM Ryan Grigson, were sore losers looking for an excuse
