  1. Paid Derks today as well. Ditto on congrats.
  2. I read an article on The Athletic today about Joel. It was one of those interview people around them to learn about them pieces. All it talked about was how competitive he is, how he used to beat the crap out of the assistant coaches kids in Madden and 2K, etc. I wish there were more mics because to me that doesn't come across at all when watching him. He doesn't even look like he's trying most of the time. Yet you look up and he has 27 and 7 at halftime. That is a very large, very skilled man.
  3. Hey Ojo, post as much as you need to bro. Post every thought that comes through your head if it helps you sort it out. There are good people on this site that will listen, and there are good people who can help when needed. Especially given what you posted about today, that meeting on Monday is going to be harder on your wife than on you. Be prepared for that. Maybe even some pre-emptive coaching trying to minimize the emotion of the situation. GL.
  4. There is no way NO will let Lebron shoot this, right? I look for an AD 3 to send this to overtime. I hope.
  5. This is not necessarily a basketball comment but there's no way you can convince me that Brandon Ingram isn't high right now without a blood test. Those eyes.
  6. I only saw some of the first half but the Suns were sleep walking. No attention to detail at all. Entry passes into the post were lofted too high, hands of stone when receiving passes, not protecting the ball when putting it on the floor. They just went checked in mentally from what I saw. Also does Lebron look skinny to anyone or am I hallucinating?
  7. AD and Bron look pretty spry. I like rooting against the Lakers but there's no way this isn't a more interesting tournament with them involved.
  8. I'm watching. I have a not so hot Kat take I may bust out later. Joker it's time to take over if you want that 🏆!
  9. I love the random halftime shows that show up on league pass. It's so funny to me how there are seemingly 8-10 acts that just rotate throughout the league. It was great, when we were at the Pistons/Knicks game I took a couple of the kids on a tour to the upper reaches of the arena during halftime. We got back and my wife was yammering on about the halftime show with the dog we missed. I'm like oh yeah! The gymnast guy with the dog and I described it to her. Man what a loser I am. I did not get laid.
  10. I am in a different state so ymmv but I know that here many parents don't realize that there are resources available to them in the form of "advocates" which will help you in dealing with public schools, and the legal documents that they are required to draw up and adhere to for your child. A brief search turned up a few sites but if you go the public route, definitely see if there is something like this available in your area. It would be a huge help in navigating those waters. https://www.studentadvocacycenter.org/special-education/ Also I don't know shit about fuck but don't rule out anxiety.
  11. I've been really excited for the East playoffs for a few months. I feel like the last few weeks have exposed a lot of these teams as pretenders. At one point in time a Bulls Cavs series would have been interesting and I would have shrugged my shoulders in non-surprise if you told me Chicago was coming out of the East. Now I feel like we are seeing that Philly is fraudulent, Chicago is two Ball brothers away, Brooklyn can't defend anyone, Boston is in trouble without Williams, Miami and Jimmy Buckets are not on the same page... It's just the Bucks and everyone else to me right now. I know you are probably leaning into the Nets but I just don't see a cohesive team when I watch them. KD and Kyrie have to force things and KD in particular looks tired to me. I'm wrong all the time, more often than I'm right by far. Just the way I'm seeing things right now.
  12. Is anyone else concluding in their own heads after the past couple of weeks that we're going to have a Finals rematch? Also Cade is ROTY and it shouldn't be close. I honestly feel like Joel has eliminated himself from MVP over the past week. I've been a big Process guy for years but it's plain that Giannis and Joker are carrying their teams down the stretch in ways that Joel is not.
  13. Did you see the replay? Left arm came down across both of GA's arms. Legit call.
  14. Don't cry too hard for Joker. He's the favorite as of right now. Watched Denver last night, as well. He controlled the entire 2nd half. Impressive. NBA Player Awards 21-22 Regular Season MVP Nikola Jokic -165 Joel Embiid +165 Giannis Antetokounmpo +1200 Stupid imgur. forgot. https://i.imgur.com/E1rINRY.jpg
  15. I am not pre-disposed to be a Pistons fan at all, I watch teams and games that are interesting to me or that I have bet on. Hell I actually have to jump through hoops to watch a Pistons game because of the Bally's sports debacle. That said I've watched a few recently, and we got suite tickets on Sunday against the Knicks, and then I watched the game last night against the Nets as I had Brooklyn ML in a wager. Cade is going to be a problem. He was unstoppable in the 4th quarter last night. KD couldn't check him. Every time you thought Brooklyn was pulling away, Cade hits a 29 footer, Cade drives through the entire team and lays it in for an and one, Cade hits a floater in the lane. The Barclays Center crowd was oohing and awing - not at KD and Kyrie - at Cade! I'm surprised there is not more buzz about the guy today and in general. I get it the Pistons are boring and suck. Maybe not for long, though.
  16. I get these terrible NBA headlines. "Golden State Warriors: Steve Kerr is officially on the hot seat" - this is a real headline just now on mine. Sure he is. "Golf world reacts to Paige Spiranac controversy" . There is never any controversy or substance to these headlines but I click them anyway because I'm pretty much a robot without a brain at this point. Long live our AI overlords.
  17. That was fun drama for a couple of days but it's over now and we can go back to not giving shit about anyone in Hollywood because they're all fucking aliens, especially the Scientology ones.
  18. Interested in the 2nd to last one for my friend Will and his wife. Do you ship to LA?
  19. I have a painted outdoor basketball court that has held up pretty beautifully for 4-5 years, no cracking or bubbling, and I live in the North with lots of rain and snow. The stencils were sprayed with standard inverted marking paint and the base color was rolled on Sherwin Williams porch and floor. Neither have shown much wear and tear. I did not use any kind of a sealant below or on top after doing some research at the time.
  20. I mean it looked fake. Completely fake. It looked like a bad stand in doing an action sequence for Steven Seagal during Under Siege part 11. But the aftermath proved it real. No way to fake all of that aftermath.
  21. Yes...Absolutely! The point is that if you can figure out what you and the Mrs are all about, you can then decide how kids do or don't fit into that picture.
  22. Succession. Check it out if you haven't. Show may not be for you but Cousin Greg is a beacon of light.
