  1. I'll be there tomorrow, looking forward to a win, but also seeing KD's homecoming should be fun. I made the first 2 years in Austin with some family, so we're trying to make it a little tradition, should they keep visiting the city. Hoping somebody offloads some cheap tickets before Friday's game so maybe I can sneak that one in too. GSG.
  2. I agree Tim Robinson has a punchable face, and because of that I didn't want to give in. But I sat through ITYSL and it got me. Obviously not every sketch, but it's worth watching every episode. Also, Detroiters is more sane and maybe even more enjoyable to me. He's hilarious, teaming up with Paul Rudd seems like a no-brainer, and I will watch this movie.
  3. Zach Collins really fucked us. He looked like he was maybe salvaging his career for a minute there, but completely disappeared this year and now we're left with Charles Bassey. Hopefully by next year we're done cleaning up the shit mess we made from extending Collins last year. Oh, and Vassell.......... the clock is ticking. It's the all-star break and people are still making excuses that you were injured to start the year. That you haven't found your rhythm yet. 3 months is not "rhythm" territory.
  4. A March on Washington will end in a LOT of bloodshed. It will be the war Trump has been readying his uneducated stooges for for years now. They already fought their supposed "good guys" in Blue at the Capitol. Imagine the restraint they'll show against the evil leftists they've been seething over for a decade. That's why he's releasing them all. He may just need them again. Have fun with all that. I'll think of another way to survive this. This country has exploited mine and others for long enough. My tíos and pops fed into all that model minority bullshit serving the country to prove their patriotism. Look where they got us. Right back around to Project 2025, 50 years later.
  5. This is framed as a passive action being taken by many, when it is very much an active push out since he bought it. Flooded with bots, flooded with right-wing shit sniffers, the ads and algorithms are flooded with shit. He took the shit hose and started spraying shit all over the walls, and changed the algorithms so that new, fresh shit gets pumped in every week. I don't blame people for leaving the house.
  6. Are you new to the country's existence in this world? We've been friendly to him because he is friendly to Western Imperialism. That has now been co-opted (taken over) by Trump Imperialism, which will help Trump join Musk as an Oligarch. He always wanted to be Putin, he said it to the country's face, and they gave him the fucking keys AND the checkbook. Palestinians wanted existence, Trump doesn't respect that, he respects power and greed. Despots get him off because he envisions himself having the power that they have.
  7. I was at Saturday's game against Miami and was hoping DV would have a strong showing since we'd obviously need a primary scorer with Wemby out ill. He went 8/22 and 1/10 from 3PT. Keldon went 5/14. Both were needed to pick up some slack the last 2 games as Wemby gets over this, and both have been inefficient chuckers. Frustrating. Hopefully cutting both their attempts down helps this team out.
  8. To live through the .04 second Derek Fisher shot, be sure to flick yourself in one of your balls as hard as you can about 10 times in a row. Do it another 9 times to feel the Manu foul on Dirk in the WCF. And then target the other one to feel the paid of Ray Allen's 2013 shot. But, I take offense to the "dark side" comment. This organization is one of the shining beacons in this crazy league. The envy of many. Just to annoy Rockets and Mavs fans, I like to say "Good things happen to Good people." Which is what I said after 2014 and after we won the lottery for Wemby. We're blessed, and it's easily the easiest, most pure love I have for a sports organization in my life. Because they prove how much they care about winning, and never overextending themselves as an org to do it. Which is probably why you'll find David, Timmy, Tony & Manu around the organization often, to this day. They reward your patience and rarely (if ever) embarrass their fans.
  9. Bassey just started on Saturday instead of Collins. We're in the same spot we were a few days ago, in regards to needing a center. I hope it comes this year, but if it doesn't, we're in a damn good position to plug the hole soon.
  10. I'm fucking going Honking! How did he only give up those CHA/CHI picks?? GSG!!
  11. Pretty dang reputable I'd say. 35 years at NBC-4 in SA according to his profile. If he's not reputable he has a lot of community ties to burn with this.
  12. Don Harris (SA local broadcast sports guy?) tweeted earlier today: "Spurs very active and perhaps close on complicated 4-team deal that would bring D'Aaron Fox to San Antoio. Stay Tuned" 4 team deal gets me excited. Maybe finessing our way out of giving up both Castle and Vassell and all our 1st-round capital.
  13. Idk if you're in East Austin but there's a shitload of them all in the neighborhood. They used to freak me out a bit because I occasionally run through the neighborhood, and a little doubt would cross my mind that they'd stop to let me cross or get too close to me to pass me if I'm on the road, but they've been fine. Still kinda freak me out because they park behind the cemetery that's across MLK from Disch-Falk and just wait there often. On 14th st.
  14. Vassell in his 5th year seems like he won't reach the player Fox is now, and Fox only just turned 27. I'm on board. I've been hoping he would become a true #2 option for Wemby, but fuck 5 years is a long sample size to prove it and he just isn't there. Honestly I wouldn't even be too mad to see Castle go either. The chances he develops into an all-star and/or NBA leader in steals? Can't be that high. I know he has tons of potential, but it's going to take more than that for him to become the #2 that Fox can be for us right now. If they still leave us room to build with our picks, go get him FO.
