  1. I think it's less physical and more mental. Guys like Kobe, Jordan, Bird, etc. just loathed coming in anything but first. I'm not sure Kawhi has that same drive.
  2. Dirt Burglars go down in game 1. I'm not gonna lose any sleep but it would be nice if they could grab at least one of the next two.
  3. Thanks, I'll message you.
  4. A ha! Those aren't pronouns.
  5. Any Travis Co residents out there get an appraisal yet? I got a letter from a dispute firm today which made me think the numbers are leaking out there.
  6. I will gladly borrow a half mil at 2.75%, does anyone know an Aggie banker?
  7. I saw an incredulous Rachel Maddow whining last night about how the wealthy (attorneys, etc.) are bending to kiss the ring. "How could they do that? They have plenty of money!" They have money they can lose. The rank and file has no money, these policies (while damaging to them) are too difficult to comprehend. I expected more from her. The wealthy are always the first to line up and bow to the king.
  8. I don't know the details, but I'd be surprised if NIL money could match lottery pick money. I saw a story on SI that claimed #10 last year made $5.5M. Add that to the point above about it not getting the player one year closer to a new contract, well . . .
  9. Why yes, yes it is! Shit.
  10. Well, I think being long the US economy right now is foolish. At any rate, dredging this stuff up at this point is like going Derka about Chris Beard. I've said my peace.
  11. It absolutely does not. Buy and hold, monthly contributions, it's all market timing. Simplistic? Yes. Not market timing? Not in the least. I'll say this: if your monthly contributions are a small fraction of your 401K, then you absolutely should not be rooting for your 401K to drop 20% because "buying opportunity". That's fucking lunacy.
  12. That's the income side of it. Buying into a declining market might not be the most effective plan, though. I know, I know, long term buy and hold yada yada yada. It's all market timing.
  13. People don't get to "buy cheap" unless they (a) have significant disposable income or (b) have divested into cash and have dry powder to spare. Neither describes the average American.
  14. So Nic Codie's instagram account spells his last name wrong?
  15. "Hell, Lundeberg fucked her."
  16. Why? THEY DON'T PAY ANY INCOME TAXES.
  17. It's almost as if you haven't been paying any attention whatsoever over the last few months.
  18. It's not "normal" when it is the clear result of absurd economic policies.

    Pearl Jam

    I love the warts and all approach to recording live in the studio. Ironically, it's often the baby bands who benefit most, but obviously a seasoned band like PJ can make great art that way. Wilco does that a lot as well. Things just seem to hang together better.
  20. Plus, no shingleberries.
  21. Went on a wild goose chase trying to figure out what this guitar is that Dean Deleo (STP) is playing. Apparently his guitar tech Bruce Nelson built it. Good looking guitar.
  22. I've read that Ivermectin is a preventative for shingles.
  23. This is the most hilariously nonsensical bullshit imaginable. University of Pennsylvania, folks. Both Trump and Musk. Gooooo, Quakers!
