    what even is the point of Hulu

    There are shows on Hulu that aren't on Disney, thus we have to keep it for the wife.

    One of the best episodes in a while. White Potus was very well done. Aside from the cold open, the skits were good. 

    I actually liked the cold open...trying to make them break is always hilarious.  Stream of consciousness for the win.

    Of course she did...it was a bit low brow, but this is something that'll make her more famous if she doesn't go overboard with it.

    It's pretty muted over there.  I think our #1 ranking has taken the wind out of their sails.

    Oh i have no doubt if they keep it up they'll be dreaming of knocking the T-Sips down a peg!

    I don’t think you understand: they ruined this franchise and hate us, and we want them to take it away.

     

    Also, what the fuck is a “North Texas?” Is that where 469 is?

    You know what the fuck north Texas is, since the new arena won't be in Dallas...most likely move the irving plot of land that Texas Stadium used to be on.

    Also I want Nico and the Owners gone, not the Mavs.

    I understand it hurt...they destroyed this fan base. But the Mavericks were more than just Luka. And while I may not support THIS team until AT LEAST Nico his strapped to a rocket and shot to the sun...they'll always be my team.

    I don't get the folks jumping ship honestly.  I get giving up on the Mavs due to this...i just can't understand cheering for another team.  Be like if Texas shut down the football program. I wouldn't go find another college team. I just wouldn't watch basketball at all(and I haven't really much since the trade)

    They are going to lose more than that if I had to guess. 

    way more IMO.

    Most sure where you saw that, but I would agree. What’s more significant however is the destroyed enterprise value, probably well over $1B.

    That’s why the conspiracy theories stick- the only way it makes financial sense is in the context of attaching the team to a new arena + casino complex, either in “North Texas” (IOW, not Dallas) but more likely in Vegas. 
    Even if putting that play in motion was not the intent at the time of the trade, it is probably required now to salvage the investment. 

    They are not moving. This has been debunked so many times over.  The league will LOSE Money, not just the Mavs owner, for them to make this move, so it won't happen.

    Once again, a Team will be in Vegas...but it'll be a new team with a massive buy in that the owners get a cut of.

    They are not going to abandon a top 4 media market with no realistic team coming in it's place.

    Predictably awful posts from some of the dumbest posters on the site and I’m not referring to Derka or BOW.  “Last Jedi is good” level stupidity on display. 

    Yeah my bad for engaging, I should have known they wouldn't actually use what I was ACTUALLY saying, and just take bits and twist it to some other BS.

    Arch to Tennessee confirmed 

    You know, gotta say, Arch is the ONE guy with pedigree and hype that you'd expect to do something like this.  Just reminds me how lucky Texas is to have him.

    Their fanbase is dumber than we thought.  Their defense, esp. DL, was fantastic.

    Here's the Opponent Adjusted OFEI and DFEI for teams that made the playoffs last year.  Nico was not the reason Tenn was there.

    Well Jeez...now it's clear why OSU won the whole thing and Texas/Penn St/ND were the other Final 4 teams.

    They will when their new majority owners relocate them to Las Vegas.

    For the LAST time they are NOT leaving North Texas. The NBA will not abandon a Top 4 Media Market(this isn't Seattle or Vancouver), and the even BIGGER reason is that the League and Owners will make MORE by adding expansion team with the new Owners "Buy In", which would be something like triple what they'd have to pay to relocate(plus losing the market).  Follow the $$$

    This trade was NOT to get the team to move. It was just stupid people making stupid decisions based on Ego.

    A&M bats pretty hot the last 2 weeks. Clickety clack.

    I'm actually glad. I was honestly ALMOST feeling a little sad for them.  And it's no fun when even THEY Have no hope.

    I'd love for them to come in to Texas on a High only to get humbled...you already see their threads talking about "Worst start to turn around and win in Omaha".  They're already feeling themselves.

    yeah, drew is acting like cc got a little rookie hazing, paid her dues, and now everyone in the league respects her. wrong. they hated her and mistreated her out of sheer pettiness and jealousy, and that hasn’t gone anywhere for most of them. this idea that her peers only dislike her “racist fans” is a total red herring.

    Where the fuck did I say that you idiot?  

    Your ENTIRE premise was "she isn't getting hate because of her fanbase" and she actually fucking is.  Plus the other "I don't want a white savior in basketball" folks too.

    She absolutely has the respect of the majority of the players NOW(not at the beginning of last season), not all...because NO ONE fucking does.

    The reason she get's trashed NOW is that some in the media and her fan base, act like she's the ONLY reason womans basketball can be successful, and the other side take offense to that.

    It's not really that hard.

    YOU are arguing something I've NEVER said.

    You're making an argument that is flat out not true. 

    What's not true? The she gets backlashes for her fan base? Because saying that isn't true is baffling.

    I am not arguing in any way that her fan base started it...some will. But not me.  

    However I think you're totally wrong if you don't think a part of her fan base isn't racist and isn't making it worse at THIS point.  If so ya'll really aint paying attention on social media.

  12. 30 minutes ago, Derka said:

    no it isn’t. you have no idea what you’re talking about. again, her “racist asshole fans” didn’t even exist until after cc became the target of a bunch of physical and verbal attacks by black women. the racist assholes you’re referring to didn’t even have the wnba on their radar until after the fact.

    Once again Derka, you have perfected the "I didn't read what was said I'm just reacting" take.

    I said it's the main reason she's STILL getting hate.  I'm not arguing that the other stuff didn't come first. Or why she was hated on at first.  You're projecting.

    But NOW, at this point, there is more hatred directed at her because of "her racist fans" than any other reason.

    She already took her bumps in the Pro's. Most of the players are probably cool with her now.

    The biggest racist assholes in the Clark stuff has been from the black side. Unless you are of the opinion black people cant be racist

    Of course I dont' beleive that.

    But I won't say either side is MORE racist than the other.  Neither is okay and that's why she's a lightning rod.

    caitlyn clark didn’t have any racist asshole fans until after the black coalition in the wnba started attacking her verbally and physically on a daily basis, so that’s not a valid excuse as to why she was treated that way. the asshole racist cc fans were/are a response to the treatment of cc by (almost exclusively) black players and former players.

    Maybe so, but regardless that is the biggest reason she still get hate, right or wrong.

    It’s going to be interesting when Caitlin & Paige are the faces of the league this year. 

    There may be some haters. 

    Some veterans are going to be torn over which one to foul (off the ball) harder.

    They'll give Paige the pass they didn't give Clark.  One because Paige isn't be touted as the "Savior" and doesn't have a huge part of her fan base being racist assholes.

     

    Plus she went to UCONN which gives her an "In" already, and she meets 2 of their quotes...she's not Strait AND she's already cow towed and been very vocal about how much she is a privileged white girl.

    Paige will be ok.  Remember that video of private school Aja Wilson saying Paige actually acknowledges that her race is a privelege 

    Yep. They already love her. She will NOT get the shit Clark did coming out(which is fine by me as I want the Wings to be good.)

    There was a video/article posted in here that basically said WNBA hates her because she doesn't bow to black, lesbian, etc culture. I'll try to find it.

    That was Clark.

    "Terrible".

    He played as well, or better, than every QB he faced. Klubenik was the only one that I think was better.

    That guy is an idiot.  Direct quote:  "He has worrisome sprays of poor accuracy to all three levels of the field".

    I mean, that's just not at all true.  Deep balls?  Yes.  Short and intermediate throws?  Pretty damn accurate and catchable.

    Right.  LIke i know he has no flair on the deep ball...but the balls at the line to 15-20 yards he can hit those pretty perfectly.

    Why do they keep doing this shit.  Not only should the cowboys NOT take a RB in the first at all(Jeanty maybe being the exception) they would be much better off with a RB in round 2 than trying to find a WR there.  Take the best WR on your board there or even trade down and do it.

    Golden visited the Cowboys yesterday 

    Of course I'd love this pick.  I'd like any of the top 4 WR's honestly.  Tet is slow as shit, but catches everything and would probably be similar to what Dez was here(we could hope). Emeka looks like the most sure fire high floor WR in the draft.  Probably 10 years as a solid #2 type guy.  Burden has some burst and elusiveness.  

    I'm biased by Golden, but his route running is superb, his ball tracking is great, he's shown the obvious knack for showing up huge in big games, and catching bad balls. And while he probably doesn't actually have 4.3 speed on the field he's MUCH faster than anyone else the cowboys have(other than turpin), and they could use that infusion of speed

    My son goes to Iowa and knows one of the guys on the practice squad.  He said Caitlyn talked some shit during those scrimmages, along the lines of asking the guy guarding her something like "how you like that, bitch?"

    I really don't know why people hate her except for her stupid fan base going overly racist at times(which is responded to with even more racist remarks from her haters).

    The has a bit of that mamba mentality with Curry's games(but a better play maker on top).

    Honestly the player she reminds me most of is Luka.  The swagger. The trash talk. The type of game...pulling up from 3 whenever he wants AND dropping amazing dimes on your head while being ball dominant.
