  1. Another drivable option for you Bogey if on a budget is Niagara Falls.
  2. Are you flying over a cyclone? That's trippy.
  3. If you guys haven't been to NYC that's probably the move, Bogey. It's an entirely different experience than Chicago but it's a must visit. I know it's much more expensive - maybe go AirBnB hunting? Toronto is cool and you can drive but imo it's a somewhat distant 3rd behind NYC and Chicago. Also Delta has some seasonal direct flights to a couple of Caribbean stops from DTW. I believe one in DR and one in Jamaica. I like the Charleston idea. We thought Savannah was awesome. Delta offers seasonal directs from DTW to at least Savannah. Another idea - Asheville? I've never been but the Smokies in that area are beautiful.
  4. Woj says Bulls and LaVine will work out an extension, Suns may work a sign and trade with Ayton and Knicks are going to go 4/105 for Brunson and force Dallas to match. Kupcheck says Hornets are bringing Bridges back but I am skeptical.
  5. Man Knox that is a pretty great way to do WDW. Stay in Animal Lodge for free and no lines. You'll never want to go back as a mere commonfolk. Enjoy!
  6. I would pay money to see Kyrie try to assimilate into Heat Culture. Who kills him first, Jimmy or UD?
  7. Bringing it back to KD, anyone listen to the ETCs last week? He didn't sound like a guy who was trying to orchestrate anything. Pretty solid code among most of the guys to not F with another man's livelihood. He sounded like a guy whose camp was sitting it out until Kyrie sorted his situation out with the team.
  8. Will Mrs. Kettleman be at the campfire, perhaps in a tight-fitting blouse, slightly unbuttoned?
  9. Funny thing is after Woj tweeted that all of the books pulled their odds down. I checked Fan Duel about a half hour ago and you could only bet on picks 4+. Now they're back up and Jabari is -6000 followed by Paolo at +550. Wonder what happened?
  10. It would be insane for SA to give up Murray. That's what you call a building block.
  11. Fair point. 😄 So that you could go back and be more selective when you had more time? This is a smash and grab job, hypothetically. @Js1 I don't believe they have electronics. Definitely not like TVs and stuff. I did find some fun toys online but I don't recall seeing this stuff in the brick and mortar. https://www.kohls.com/catalog/camp-chef.jsp?CN=Brand:Camp Chef&cc=outdoorliving-TN3.0-S-CampChef&kls_sbp=71033792051317836381546150039972710781
  12. I think the answer is small kitchen appliances first and then men's active wear.
  13. You have 5 minutes. You can't return anything for store credit or cash or even Kohl's cash. What are you going for?
  14. Interesting. It will be fun to see how he fits on a contender. Can he sacrifice and become a winner? He's never really had to play that role. Miles Bridges is my guy but I'm very curious to see what happens with him in Charlotte. Shams said yesterday that MJ would be hesitant to match a max. I can't disagree. Love the dude but his ceiling is limited to me as a borderline all star, similar to this year. Maybe he gets in a few times. I don't think he's ever going to be a great shooter despite some very good numbers in 21. And he also struggles when he has to dribble the ball more than 3x. He's a good defender, though, and he works his ass off and he's a dawg. Not sure he's a building block on a max deal. Someone will probably max him, though.
  15. Old San Francisco Steakhouse is pretty swingin
  16. Every time we've flown prior to Covid I was able to take them all through with me, wife included. She just got the check mark on her boarding pass automatically. I'm highly doubtful they are gonna give us 8 check marks this time through. It's going to be awesome getting busted for bringing gummies through TSA in front of my parents, wife and kids.
  17. Kyrie is the most toxic guy in the NBA. I'd rather have Ben Simmons. To think one team has both!
  18. Ugh. I am flying as part of a party of 8 this summer. I reserved everything so we are all on the same reservation. I am that only one with Pre. Wife doesn't have or need it. Kids are 12 and 9. My 75+ parents who probably haven't flown in a decade and probably won't again anytime soon. And my two 15 year old nephews. Conflicted here because normally I would just go with everyone and help since they don't have any clue what they're doing but I'm also planning on bringing minor contraband.
  19. I understand that these are your opinions. Some of them are fairly strong. I respect them. However you state many of them as factual when they are not. They are good, strong-ass opinions. I don't think history will view things in the same light, but what do I know. My opinion as a non UT non anything other than basketball guy is that KD is on a fucking pedestal.
  20. Where is this coming from? Honest question. Are you a KD fan and insecure about his place in history? Are you a KD hater? I don't think any of these questions or narratives are accurate from where I sit on the outside.
  21. I don't really agree. I think that is more caving to a media narrative. There has been a paradigm shift in the NBA since (arguably) the Lakers and Celtics and Heat years in the "aughts". It is ridiculous to try to hold modern day teams and franchises to the same standards as in the 80s and 90s. KD is a two time Champ and a two time Finals MVP and was the best player in the game for a 2/3/4/5 year stretch, pre Achilles. Nothing is going to change that in my mind and I have no pre disposition to KD.
  22. Nah on the KD part. That's First Take bullshit. There is no devaluing a Championship. Receipts are receipts.
