Em maio deste ano, Thiago Carpini desembarcou na Toca do Leão com a missão de salvar o Vitória do rebaixamento no Campeonato Brasileiro. Quatro meses depois, o Rubro-Negro atualmente está fora do Z-4, mas segue com um difícil caminho para sobreviver pela frente.
Entre um treino e outro na Toca do Leão, Thiago Carpini resolveu problemas de indisciplina no vestiário, ajudou no convencimento e contratação de reforços e precisou lidar com a saudade da família, que ficou dividida entre Salvador e São Paulo.
Essa é a grande dificuldade. É o preço que se paga. Principalmente nos momentos em que a gente não está trabalhando. A gente fica pensando no futebol, em estratégias para o adversário. A gente tem o nosso momento. Tem momento que eu gostaria de estar com a minha esposa, amigos e meus filhos. A gente sabe que, infelizmente, não é possível. Esse é o preço que se paga. Está sendo a maior dificuldade até então. E ela [a esposa] se sacrifica muito para estar aqui comigo. Vem semana sim, semana não. Quando acabam os jogos, e em dias de folga, vou para casa ficar com as crianças, poder descansar, levar os meninos para o colégio, ficar com ela. E a gente vai levando assim - contou o treinador.
Quando Carpini chegou ao Vitória, o time estava na zona de rebaixamento e ainda sem vencer no Campeonato Brasileiro. Atualmente, a equipe está na 16ª posição, com 28 pontos, e tem a sexta melhor campanha do returno.
After years of flirtations and rumors, the four-time All-Star Towns is being traded from Minnesota to New York after a stunning blockbuster agreement, a source confirmed to The Post.
Karl-Anthony Towns is Finally a Knick: The blockbustertrade that Changes the NBA Landscape
In a shocking move that has sent shockwaves throughout the NBA, the Minnesota Timberwolves have agreed to trade four-time All-Star Karl-Anthony Towns to the New York Knicks. The blockbuster deal, confirmed by a source to The Post, marks the culmination of years of rumors and flirtations between the two teams.
For the Knicks, the acquisition of Towns represents a major coup, as they finally land a dominant big man to anchor their frontcourt. The 27-year-old center has consistently been one of the top players in the league, boasting a impressive résumé that includes four All-Star appearances, three All-NBA selections, and a pair of All-Defensive nods.
Towns' arrival in the Big Apple comes at a pivotal moment for the Knicks, who have been rebuilding their roster in an effort to return to the playoffs. With the addition of Towns, the team gains a proven talent who can immediately make an impact on both ends of the floor. His presence also opens up opportunities for other players on the roster, as he can draw double teams and create space for his teammates to operate.
The trade also marks a significant shift in the balance of power in the Eastern Conference. The Knicks, who have been stuck in mediocrity for years, now possess a legitimate superstar to build around. With Towns leading the charge, the team is poised to make a serious push for a playoff spot in the coming seasons.
For the Timberwolves, the trade represents a difficult but necessary move. Despite Towns' impressive individual accomplishments, the team has struggled to find consistency and success during his tenure. The trade opens up a significant amount of cap space, allowing the team to rebuild and retool their roster around younger players.
The trade is also a testament to the Knicks' willingness to take risks and make bold moves. After years of being stuck in a cycle of mediocrity, the team has finally taken a step towards becoming a legitimate contender. The addition of Towns sends a message to the rest of the league that the Knicks are serious about building a winning culture and are willing to do whatever it takes to achieve that goal.
In the coming days and weeks, the NBA world will be filled with analysis and debate about the trade. Will the Knicks be able to build a winning team around Towns? Can the Timberwolves rebuild and find success without their star center? One thing is certain, however: the trade has sent shockwaves throughout the league and will have a lasting impact on the NBA landscape.
As the Knicks look to build around Towns, they will need to surround him with a supporting cast that can complement his skills. The team will likely look to add more shooting and playmaking ability to the roster, as well as bolster their defense with the addition of a strong perimeter defender.
For Towns, the move to New York represents a fresh start and an opportunity to prove himself as a leader and a champion. After years of being stuck in Minnesota, he will now have the chance to play in front of a passionate and dedicated fan base, and to be a part of a team that is built to win.
In the end, the trade of Karl-Anthony Towns to the New York Knicks is a major coup for both teams. For the Knicks, it represents a chance to build a winning team around a dominant big man. For the Timberwolves, it marks a necessary step towards rebuilding and retooling their roster. As the NBA world continues to digest the news, one thing is certain: the trade has sent shockwaves throughout the league and will have a lasting impact on the sport.
As owner of the Chicago White Sox, Reinsdorf heads a franchise with the most single-season losses in baseball history. The White Sox also set team records with a 21-game losing streak and losses in 20 straight series. In one game, a mundane pop fly went viral after two players collided, the ball rolled away, and three runs scored. In another, the team’s second baseman was injured by a ball to the face because he wasn’t paying attention to the catcher’s throw during warmups between innings.
Reporters have accused Reinsdorf of a “stunning” lack of accountability and “perverse revenge” against fans who want him to sell the team.
The negative media attention isn’t surprising. When a team fails so spectacularly, sportswriters inevitably take swings at the owner, with one notable exception: the last team to lose 120 games, the 1962 New York Mets.
‘Mother of the Mets’
Joan Whitney Payson had a decidedly elitist background. She grew up in one of the world’s wealthiest families, the benefactors of artmuseums and opera houses. She collected priceless paintings by the masters – Renoir, Monet, Cézanne, Matisse. Her grandfather had been secretary of state, and her brother was the U.S. ambassador to the U.K.
But Payson did share one trait with the American working class: a love of baseball. She grew up a rabid fan of the New York Giants and eventually came to own 10% of stock in the team. Like many New Yorkers, she was crushed in 1957 when the Giants relocated to California, a move she tried desperately to prevent. That same year, the Giants’ rival, the Brooklyn Dodgers, also headed west.

A city that had three thriving teams was down to just one: the Yankees, a longtime adversary that many Giants and Dodgers fans couldn’t bring themselves to root for.
Payson gave New Yorkers another option. Three years after the Giants and Dodgers left town, Payson bought an expansion club that was set to play in Queens. Anticipation for the new team energized the city. But in 1962, the first woman to purchase a sports team – a distinction that could have made her a target of the all-male press – led the Mets to a disastrous record: 40 wins against 120 losses.
In many ways, the 1962 Mets were worse than the 2024 White Sox. They made a whopping 210 errors; the White Sox will finish with half that many. Two Mets pitchers lost 20 games each; no one on the White Sox will come close. The White Sox outpaced the Mets in a range of categories, from doubles to stolen bases.
I research the history of sports media, and a few years ago, I set off to find out how the press covered Payson. I figured she must have been prime fodder for the tough New York media. When I was growing up, the Yankees and Mets never sank to the depths that Payson’s team did, yet the press still rebuked Yankees owner George Steinbrenner and the Mets’ FRED Wilpon, whose ownership group bought the team from the Payson family in 1980.
I spent many hours scanning newspapers on microfilm and digitaldatabases. I made a trip to the Yale University archives to sift through Payson’s papers, and I combed her file at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and museum, too.
A partner of the press
It’s much easier finding unfavorable stories about Reinsdorf. The owner of the White Sox since 1981, he is known for blowing off reporters. Even amid the national focus on the White Sox, he has not spoken to journalists for more than a year.

Payson, meanwhile, treated the press like partners.
The winter before her team’s inaugural season, she made an unprecedented gesture: inviting sports writers to her Manhattan duplex to help select the name of the team they would be covering. Payson wanted to go with Meadowlarks, a tribute to the team’s future home in Flushing Meadows. But the writers preferred Mets, an homage to a 19th-century New York team whose four-letter brevity worked well in headlines. In a decision that’s hard to imagine Reinsdorf making, Payson conceded to the press.
Later, during that 17-game skid, she took out newspaper ads thanking reporters in “the most tolerant city in the nation” for dispelling the notion “that New York is a cynical sports city, settling only for a winner.”
To be fair to the White Sox owner, Payson benefited from conditions that Reinsdorf cannot control.
Beat writers gave Payson grace after Major League Baseball forced her to draft the Mets roster from a pool of unwanted players from other clubs. Many of those journalists had lost work in 1957 when the Dodgers and Giants decamped for California. “These were very accomplished for their times guys who suddenly didn’t have teams to cover,” Robert Lipsyte, then a cub reporter at The New York Times, told me in an oral history interview in 2020. Payson gave these underworked sports writers a chance to cover the big leagues again.
In return, the Mets owner elicited effusive praise. In his book “Can’t Anybody Here Play This Game?” journalist Jimmy Breslin wrote that Payson “could be the best person to come into baseball in our time.”
No one at the Chicago Tribune or Sun-Times makes the same lofty claim for Reinsdorf.
Knives out?
After her team’s 120-loss campaign, Payson entered the offseason as a media darling. The press appreciated her good nature and accessibility for interviews even as the Mets floundered.
In comparison, Reinsdorf’s combination of on-field futility and off-field coolness to the Chicago media has assured him a spot in the annals of infamy.
With two and a half weeks to go in the season, Reinsdorf put out a statement acknowledging “this year has been very painful for all” and promising that he will “have more to say at the end of the season.”
At this point, what Reinsdorf says probably won’t matter much. Rather than learning from Payson’s approach, he has made it easy for the press to cast him as a villain.
The Chicago White Sox, a professional baseball team, has been a staple of the city's sports scene since its establishment in 1901. As a member of the American League (AL) Central Division in Major League Baseball (MLB), the team has a rich history and a loyal fan base. The White Sox play their home games at Guaranteed Rate Field (previously known as U.S. Cellular Field) on the South Side of Chicago, a state-of-the-art stadium that offers an intimate and electric atmosphere for fans.
The team's iconic colors, black, white, and silver, are reflected in their logo, which features a stylized "SOX" lettering with a white sock and a black stripe. This distinctive logo is a nod to the team's nickname, the "White Stockings," which was adopted in the late 19th century.
Throughout their history, the White Sox have achieved significant success, winning three world Series championships: 1906, 1917, and 2005. They have also claimed six American League pennants and 10 division titles, cementing their status as one of the most successful teams in the American League. Some of the most notable players in White Sox history include Frank Thomas, a Hall of Fame slugger who played for the team from 1990 to 2005, Carlton Fisk, a legendary catcher who played for the team from 1981 to 1993, and Luke Appling, a Hall of Fame shortstop who played for the team from 1930 to 1950.
The White Sox have a long-standing rivalry with the Chicago Cubs, who play in the National League (NL) Central Division. The two teams are often referred to as the "South Siders" and the "North Siders," respectively, due to their geographic locations in the city. This rivalry is fueled by the teams' differing histories, with the Cubs having a longer and more storied tradition of success, including nine World Series championships.
Despite the Cubs' dominance, the White Sox have a dedicated fan base that is passionate and loyal. The team's fans, known for their energetic and knowledgeable support, have been instrumental in creating a lively atmosphere at Guaranteed Rate Field. With a rich history of success and a strong rivalry with the Cubs, the Chicago White Sox are an integral part of Chicago's sports landscape, and their fans eagerly anticipate the start of each new season.

I have thought about how to carry out the creator subscriptions but reading your thread has even opened my mind to creating a container or library to link all the subscriber-only content.
"Bookmarks" feature such that a folder or more can be created for the exclusive content and shared or pinned to our profile so subscribers can track all the exclusive content.Now I am thinking if @khaleelkazi and the team can work more on the
We will have to see what the situation is. I think bookmarks are going to be important for subscriptions since people can bookmark the content they want.
If you don't have a library already built up there's no reference for anyone to gauge whether or not you're worth the subscription. The chicken or the egg? #freecompliments
Do you think those represent content people will pay to see?Ive seen you mention somewhere that you are publishing a book.I'll bet you could get subscriptions if you release it as sub only content 1 para or page at a time #freecompliments
Now that is a awesome idea.
The old library is public so no one would pay, either have to start making a new library now, it build it as you go.
!BBH !DOOK
The point is,you need the old public library so potential subs have an idea what you'll be sharing behind the paywall.They need something to see for free, because they wont pay for a product they're not sure of the quality#freecompliments
Can I decrypt my own posts in the container using my own Memo Key? Or does the encryption have to be via Inleo?#feedback If I understood how Creator's Subscriptions work is that the encrypted content will be posted in a container post owned by inleo.
Or asking in another way: If Inleo stopped existing for a reason or another, are my encrypted posts lost forever? #freecompliments #cent #bbh

Thank you Hive and InLeo for the warm welcome. Unfortunately, considering that I came to Hive Through InLeo I've gotten very little interaction from the #community #freecompliments
Ah well, if the current owners don't do the reaching out, then user retention will remain the same, which is very few. So, since I have not only been interacting and reaching out, but most of my content have been original, quality and evergreen it shows the lack of engagement by the users on InLeo, because I get GOOD interaction elsewhere. It's the attitude you just defined that has hurt InLeo and needs to change #freecompliments
1 thing Google Gemini is great for is scraping content from Youtube (since they own it). In your Gemini settings just turn on the Youtube extension and now you can drop the link to any video and get details.

Knicks acquiring Karl-Anthony Towns from Timberwolves in stunning blockbuster
The Knicks are nearing a late-night blockbuster.
Karl-Anthony Towns is finally a Knick.
After years of flirtations and rumors, the four-time All-Star Towns is being traded from Minnesota to New York after a stunning blockbuster agreement, a source confirmed to The Post.
#nyknicks #nba #sports #trade
I don't know if KAT is up for the pressure that comes with playing in the Big Apple. Wish him best of luck though.
His first objective is to stay healthy.
The Knicks took a big risk here but it could pay off. The Wolves got a good deal in my opinion.
Yea I agree…I think it makes Minnesota a better team than last year top to bottom
Karl-Anthony Towns is Finally a Knick: The blockbuster trade that Changes the NBA Landscape
In a shocking move that has sent shockwaves throughout the NBA, the Minnesota Timberwolves have agreed to trade four-time All-Star Karl-Anthony Towns to the New York Knicks. The blockbuster deal, confirmed by a source to The Post, marks the culmination of years of rumors and flirtations between the two teams.
For the Knicks, the acquisition of Towns represents a major coup, as they finally land a dominant big man to anchor their frontcourt. The 27-year-old center has consistently been one of the top players in the league, boasting a impressive résumé that includes four All-Star appearances, three All-NBA selections, and a pair of All-Defensive nods.
Towns' arrival in the Big Apple comes at a pivotal moment for the Knicks, who have been rebuilding their roster in an effort to return to the playoffs. With the addition of Towns, the team gains a proven talent who can immediately make an impact on both ends of the floor. His presence also opens up opportunities for other players on the roster, as he can draw double teams and create space for his teammates to operate.
The trade also marks a significant shift in the balance of power in the Eastern Conference. The Knicks, who have been stuck in mediocrity for years, now possess a legitimate superstar to build around. With Towns leading the charge, the team is poised to make a serious push for a playoff spot in the coming seasons.
For the Timberwolves, the trade represents a difficult but necessary move. Despite Towns' impressive individual accomplishments, the team has struggled to find consistency and success during his tenure. The trade opens up a significant amount of cap space, allowing the team to rebuild and retool their roster around younger players.
The trade is also a testament to the Knicks' willingness to take risks and make bold moves. After years of being stuck in a cycle of mediocrity, the team has finally taken a step towards becoming a legitimate contender. The addition of Towns sends a message to the rest of the league that the Knicks are serious about building a winning culture and are willing to do whatever it takes to achieve that goal.
In the coming days and weeks, the NBA world will be filled with analysis and debate about the trade. Will the Knicks be able to build a winning team around Towns? Can the Timberwolves rebuild and find success without their star center? One thing is certain, however: the trade has sent shockwaves throughout the league and will have a lasting impact on the NBA landscape.
As the Knicks look to build around Towns, they will need to surround him with a supporting cast that can complement his skills. The team will likely look to add more shooting and playmaking ability to the roster, as well as bolster their defense with the addition of a strong perimeter defender.
For Towns, the move to New York represents a fresh start and an opportunity to prove himself as a leader and a champion. After years of being stuck in Minnesota, he will now have the chance to play in front of a passionate and dedicated fan base, and to be a part of a team that is built to win.
In the end, the trade of Karl-Anthony Towns to the New York Knicks is a major coup for both teams. For the Knicks, it represents a chance to build a winning team around a dominant big man. For the Timberwolves, it marks a necessary step towards rebuilding and retooling their roster. As the NBA world continues to digest the news, one thing is certain: the trade has sent shockwaves throughout the league and will have a lasting impact on the sport.

What White Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf can learn from the last team to lose 120 games
Bad press has engulfed Jerry Reinsdorf.
As owner of the Chicago White Sox, Reinsdorf heads a franchise with the most single-season losses in baseball history. The White Sox also set team records with a 21-game losing streak and losses in 20 straight series. In one game, a mundane pop fly went viral after two players collided, the ball rolled away, and three runs scored. In another, the team’s second baseman was injured by a ball to the face because he wasn’t paying attention to the catcher’s throw during warmups between innings.
#whitesox #mets #mlb #sports
Reporters have accused Reinsdorf of a “stunning” lack of accountability and “perverse revenge” against fans who want him to sell the team.
The negative media attention isn’t surprising. When a team fails so spectacularly, sports writers inevitably take swings at the owner, with one notable exception: the last team to lose 120 games, the 1962 New York Mets.
The Mets owner didn’t just manage to escape blame from the press.
She became the toast of the town.

The White Sox play their home games at Guaranteed Rate Field (previously known as U.S. Cellular Field) on the South Side of Chicago, a state-of-the-art stadium that offers an intimate and electric atmosphere for fans.
The team's iconic colors, black, white, and silver, are reflected in their logo, which features a stylized "SOX" lettering with a white sock and a black stripe. This distinctive logo is a nod to the team's nickname, the "White Stockings," which was adopted in the late 19th century.
Throughout their history, the White Sox have achieved significant success, winning three world Series championships: 1906, 1917, and 2005. They have also claimed six American League pennants and 10 division titles, cementing their status as one of the most successful teams in the American League. Some of the most notable players in White Sox history include Frank Thomas, a Hall of Fame slugger who played for the team from 1990 to 2005, Carlton Fisk, a legendary catcher who played for the team from 1981 to 1993, and Luke Appling, a Hall of Fame shortstop who played for the team from 1930 to 1950.
The White Sox have a long-standing rivalry with the Chicago Cubs, who play in the National League (NL) Central Division. The two teams are often referred to as the "South Siders" and the "North Siders," respectively, due to their geographic locations in the city. This rivalry is fueled by the teams' differing histories, with the Cubs having a longer and more storied tradition of success, including nine World Series championships.
Despite the Cubs' dominance, the White Sox have a dedicated fan base that is passionate and loyal. The team's fans, known for their energetic and knowledgeable support, have been instrumental in creating a lively atmosphere at Guaranteed Rate Field. With a rich history of success and a strong rivalry with the Cubs, the Chicago White Sox are an integral part of Chicago's sports landscape, and their fans eagerly anticipate the start of each new season.

Just because of your, am gonna travel with my war jet...
Have you considered what you are going to do, if anything, with subscriptions?
How are you going about it? Tools are needed but so is a library.
10-1 says most overlook the last point.
I have thought about how to carry out the creator subscriptions but reading your thread has even opened my mind to creating a container or library to link all the subscriber-only content.
"Bookmarks" feature such that a folder or more can be created for the exclusive content and shared or pinned to our profile so subscribers can track all the exclusive content.Now I am thinking if @khaleelkazi and the team can work more on the
What do you think?
We will have to see what the situation is. I think bookmarks are going to be important for subscriptions since people can bookmark the content they want.
I’m out finding my audience cause I can find hivesters to read me but most people currently at hive don’t like to pay for stuff
That is true for the crypto world. Crypto people want stuff for free.
Can you not build your library on the fly?
Your daily posts to your subscribers becomes your library?
If you want.
If you don't have a library already built up there's no reference for anyone to gauge whether or not you're worth the subscription. The chicken or the egg? #freecompliments
I guess that 2000 plus long form posts and 900 plus 3speak videos would be my library.
Do you think those represent content people will pay to see?Ive seen you mention somewhere that you are publishing a book.I'll bet you could get subscriptions if you release it as sub only content 1 para or page at a time #freecompliments
Now that is a awesome idea.
The old library is public so no one would pay, either have to start making a new library now, it build it as you go.
!BBH !DOOK
The point is,you need the old public library so potential subs have an idea what you'll be sharing behind the paywall.They need something to see for free, because they wont pay for a product they're not sure of the quality#freecompliments

Can I decrypt my own posts in the container using my own Memo Key? Or does the encryption have to be via Inleo?#feedback If I understood how Creator's Subscriptions work is that the encrypted content will be posted in a container post owned by inleo.
Or asking in another way: If Inleo stopped existing for a reason or another, are my encrypted posts lost forever? #freecompliments #cent #bbh

Thank you Hive and InLeo for the warm welcome. Unfortunately, considering that I came to Hive Through InLeo I've gotten very little interaction from the #community #freecompliments
Are you talking about interactions on your posts?
If yes, I am not sure where you signed up from is the reason.
As a new person, you will have to do the reaching out.
Thank you for contributing to #freecompliments. You are awesome 🥰
#freecompliments !DOOK
Ah well, if the current owners don't do the reaching out, then user retention will remain the same, which is very few. So, since I have not only been interacting and reaching out, but most of my content have been original, quality and evergreen it shows the lack of engagement by the users on InLeo, because I get GOOD interaction elsewhere. It's the attitude you just defined that has hurt InLeo and needs to change #freecompliments
1 thing Google Gemini is great for is scraping content from Youtube (since they own it). In your Gemini settings just turn on the Youtube extension and now you can drop the link to any video and get details.
My go-to prompt is:
"extract all tips, action steps, and points of emphasis from this youtube video: {youtube link}"
#ai #aiprompt #googlegemini
Thanks for that, I do like Gemini, addid YoutUbe extension now!
No prob. Copying and pasting transcripts was driving me crazy until i figured this out lol
I can imagine
Wow, didnt know that. Can I do it on mobile?
Thats a good question. I only use Gemini on desktop from time to time
I'd try it out later tonight. Thanks for bringing that up on threads.

So, it's been 5 hours since I uploaded my video, and the only thing that changed is moving from Number 4 in the Queue to Number 2. #freecompliments #cent #bbh
Woah! That's too slow. #cent
Apparently there's a problem on 3Speak's side and they're working on it. I think.
Did you ask on his discord server or check if something is happening?
I read somewhere in his discord that update of the testnet is running i cant tell if is related
Probably related... Anyway, I decided to just wait it out. If the video failed, I may check their discord server.
There is something about mining rewards? I dont know but now im curious
Wait, did I say mining rewards?
Nono, i say it cuz i read it on discord

I think the time stamp is removed from the For You feed, but is there on the Latest Feed, which I consider the Main Feed, lol
Well latest has to show the latest so I guess it is useful to be able to check the time, if you use this feed I guess time does matter.
