  1. Oh cool, Nazi twitter accounts in the basketball forum.
  2. Notice how all the staunch, principled Israel defenders have abandoned this thread. There is nothing left to defend.
  3. 99% of the basketball forum just Thanos snapped out of existence on that one.
  4. It's Helobious, his takes are frequently uniquely wrong and bad.
  5. I'm sorry but what the fuck does this even mean? I'm not necessarily disagreeing with the bulk of your post there, but this literally made me laugh out loud.
  6. Yeah I'll believe she took a pay cut from that when pigs fly. There's a reason her salary isn't publicly disclosed.
  7. Goodell's salary makes up 0.27% of NFL revenue. Adam Silver's salary makes up 0.08% of NBA revenue. If Englebert makes $6 million, that's 3% of WNBA revenue (reported, 2024) which makes her wildly overpaid relative to the revenue/profits the organization she leads generates (which, again, is her responsibility, not the players') and that's just one WNBA executive. Revenue has been on the upswing since even before Caitlin Clark, and yet player salaries (as a percentage relative to revenue generation) have been going down, not up, which kind of blows up the argument that they will start getting paid a higher % as revenue increases, considering we haven't seen that happen yet. My argument (and that of the players) is that the administrative side of the WNBA is largely overpaid compared to the players, who actually put the butts in seats.
  8. Profitability and revenue generation is not the players' responsibility. The average WNBA player makes less than the average WNBA employee, which is completely out of whack. Of course they want a larger share of league revenue, if you don't understand why, you're a complete fucking dolt. Given her salary history, the league commissioner likely makes 40x what Caitlin Clark is going to make. Does that seem fair to you?
  9. You're fucking weird.
  10. Point out the DT posters in that video
  11. I was 100% expecting Melissa McCarthy or something but I guess having another hot Fak shouldn't be a big surprise considering John Cena etc. It's a little sad she got old, yeah, but she has made up for that in spades with her acting chops. She's absolutely killed every role she's had in the last decade or so.
  12. I agree with you 100%, but the CR part goes well beyond that and would badly derail this thread lol
  13. I enjoyed the Snyderverse movies but they weren't really Superman films. It's not supposed to be dark and serious. I think people that didn't enjoy this film need to try and approach it from a different angle. It's a comic book movie, it's supposed to be campy and goofy. More importantly, it's also a Superman movie, and I think people tend to forget what Superman is supposed to be like because of the Snyderverse and how dark some of the other DC stuff is (like Batman). A big part of Superman's persona/aura is that he is just...good. He is so purely, childishly good that it flies way past the point of absurdity and even humanity, which is appropriate because he is actually a goddamn alien. If your kids are enjoying this and you're being a sour puss about it, they're reading a comic book and you're stubbornly trying to watch what you think should be Citizen Kane.
  14. This show is like a nail gun to my frontal lobes and I'm cool with that
  15. It's supposed to be washed up Johnny Cage so I think it's probably just about right
  16. He's a self-described reactionary conservative, he is not going to willingly consume any content that runs contrary to his view on Israel lol
  17. Rebooting the console seems to fix this problem.
  18. Is it? I don't know Bill Cosby but I wish plenty of ill on him. Weird take.
  19. Apparently my cousin is assistant director at La Junta. I had no clue.
  20. Schadenfreude is older than the internet, bro, it's always going to be funny to people not involved when some shit like this happens
  21. Racist internet troll tells other guy to touch grass.
  22. Ok this actually looks dope. Exactly the kind of fan service schlock you can just sit there and enjoy without thinking about it too much.
  23. Now you too get to be mad at all the assholes who refuse to copy/paste articles as plain text so they show up as black on black.
  24. I mean, this is just blatantly unconstitutional but have you considered that you might just love the terrorists @Captainant?
  25. Still waiting on that source @statsman, you got it homie?
