  1. New Pope kinda a drama queen, get on with it homie.
  2. First time for everything, I guess.
  3. You have to compare the situations. How many top 4 picks have landed on a team that finished top 2 the next year? Our biggest weakness was (and still is) shooting, so we got the best shooter in a weak draft. Given the current construction of the team, who picked after Reed would have made a bigger contribution? Maybe Edey could have taken some Adams minutes? Like I said earlier, I see no reason that Reed can't eventually play the Buddy Hield role for this team.
  4. Amen is untouchable. Get rid of whatever else it takes to get Giannis, and make them take Jalen.
  5. This checks out. From the few races I followed, Republican-endorsed candidates tended to emphasize why they would be good Republicans. The Democratic-endorsed candidates seemed to emphasize why they would be good for the position. Likely not worth reading too much into, but de-nationalizing local races again would be a welcome development.
  6. When I went to research the different KISD candidates, the very first sentence from Perez on why he should be re-elected to a FUCKING SCHOOL BOARD was that he was a “strong Christian conservative.” No additional research needed. Proud of the voters.
  7. Warriors don’t have the legs for this. They looked dead out there.
  8. We don't. It is.
  9. This is the stage of the game where you can start to look at how each player is being edited and ask the question "does it make sense for the eventual winner to have been edited this way?" I think Joe, Eva, Kyle, and probably Shauhin can all answer yes to that question. The casual viewer would easily be able to understand why any of these folks won. Kamilla and Mitch aren't there yet, but they could potentially move up if they mastermind a big move to take out one of the big dogs. Mary hasn't been a relevant character (other than inadvertently getting David voted out) since Sai left. I think it's a safe bet that she doesn't win. Honestly not sure there's been a season in recent memory where 6 out of the final 7 could all still realistically win the game.
  10. The most demoralizing plays in this series have been when Steph/Jimmy are shut down defensively and then one of the "others" still knocks down a three. And they have like three or four guys that can consistently do that. Reed might never be an alpha out there, but I have no reason to think he can't be a guy that consistently makes the other team pay for overcommitting on the top options - and there's high value in that.
  11. The pivot that Barbarian makes about halfway through is unlike anything else I've ever watched. Genuinely felt like two different movies combined into one.
  12. I must have misunderstood then. I agree that the traditional silent, somber “deep mourning” of a public figure won’t occur, but there will be a lot of people who will have big emotions about his death that will likely not respond favorably to those of us who will celebrate it.
  13. Honestly not sure how to respond to this. “MAGA will be chill about Trump’s death” might be one of the wildest claims I’ve ever read on this website.
  14. While I’m actively rooting for his demise, I do concede that his death would likely push us closer than we’ve been in 150+ years to another civil war. The fact that neighborhood streets will feature BOTH fireworks and deep mourning will result in a powder keg ripe for conflict.
  15. lol at that wannabe rent-a-cop completely killing all their momentum with his ejection.
  16. I’ve never wanted anything as much as I want to wake up to THAT news one day.
  17. There’s few things that make me lose respect for a basketball team faster than shitty free throw shooting. Just the absolute basics.
  18. I hate to be the one to point this out, but that guy doesn’t even know that his second to last first round pick transferred to aggy.
  19. Has anyone from the NBA explained why OKC/MEM completed four games before we even tipped off our third? Not alleging a big conspiracy or anything, but strange to have one series routinely have one day off between games and another have two. GS (and especially Butler) lucked out big time with the spread out schedule.
  20. It will be fascinating to watch. It's obvious that the front office has concluded that the OL problems were largely schematic and attitude (i.e. Tunsil) related. I've never gotten the sense that their panic for that position group matched the fans' level of concern. We really REALLY need them to be correct.
  21. In case you are wondering how much Canadians hate Trump, this is the immediate response from the GUY TRUMP ENDORSED.
  22. Mellott is gonna play WR at least
  23. The discussion is not “should Quinn have stayed another year”, it’s “should he have left a year ago”. And I think it’s pretty indisputable now that he would have been better suited to do so.
  24. Cam Williams decision to leave early turning out to be one of the worst ones we’ve seen out of our program in a while. A good year would have had him as an easy first round pick with that size.
