    It was the Bataan death march of television. Should have been 4 one hour episodes, tops. Despite all the shenanigans I didn't see anything that changed my mind either. In the end it was a self serving crap honestly.

    We just got through slogging through the 13 episodes on the Netflix documentary and I was kinda underwhelmed. Patterson is such an unlikable douchebag. Should I do the MAX version or nah?

    Maybe. Point stands that there are a lot of people who think they are special/smart because our government injected trillions of dollars into the economy with almost no strings attached. Now inflation is going to take that back plus some. Nobody who wasn't working in 1982 even knows what that's like. I do and it fucking sucks if you're on the wrong side of it. It wont hurt capital all that much unless they are levered out the ass, but the labor market could be in for a rough time. I hope it doesn't happen but you get a real recession early 80s style and some people are going to get punched in the mouth. Been there. Just like I keep hearing there are these young Wall St hotshots who are ready for a bond bear market. Reading about it in some textbook aint the same as living through it. Anyway as to the subject at hand you should be looking for this guys replacement. He's a loser so give him two in the back of the head. Never feel a thing.

    We are in a bear market headed to a potential recession. No more stimmy checks. There are a lot of folks who are about to get a dose of reality. Its a teaching moment but it probably won't take so you will have to can him. You will find someone better.

    Would be interesting to see the list of lame companies tangentially related to ESG that are on that list. I think its just another acronym-based investment scam that probably won't be worthwhile. Story stocks get annihilated in bear markets, if that weren't being made obvious as of late.

    I love how people are all "TWTR will sue Elon." Like he gives a shit. Real commercial litigation against deep pockets defendants lasts years. If they sue him the end result will be in some conference room mediation many years from now for pennies on the dollar. People would be shocked if they knew how many corp litigation people have never had a jury trial. As for TWTR, if you sue, you are open to discovery on the bot and censorship question. Not really sure they want anyone to see how that sausage gets made. I would bet the bot number as WAY north of 5% At any rate, I for one am entertained.

    Me neither. Dr. J was a fucking god.

    Preach it. I graduated college in 1983 oil bust, and law school in 1991 recession. Took forever to gain any real career traction. You get a real recession and there will be some attitude adjustment across the board. We probably need it. Just way too much money sloshing around has warped everyones sense of economic value of both capital and labor.

    Glad you're good Doc. Can't wait to catch your future Netflix documentary. Not sharing your optimism on city in near term. Longer term maybe but something has to give politically. I am reconsidering whether wearing a poor mans Rolex is a bad idea here. Even with the bullshit as long as we aren't victims of something violent we intend to stay. Its still such an awesome city.

    Im an old so I remember watching the Sixers series. Also remember thinking too bad for Lakers that Kareem can't play. Clearly plugging your point guard in at center against a team with basically two centers should be a disaster, right? The idea that not only did it work but Magic dominated has to be one of the most awesome feats in NBA history given the circumstances.

    People worked hard in the gulag too. Nothing to aspire to though. They work like that in China because there is no other option. Manufacturing is becoming more automated by the day. Factor in shipping from China to US and I don't think that trade is so hot right now.

    Havent read the book but I wonder if one of the reasons for Westhead wanting a slower offense is Kareem getting too old to run and gun for 100 games. I would argue that run and gun was in Westheads blood given the stint with Denver and Loyola Marymount. 1990 Loyola averaged 122 PPG.

    Man that's rough. Sorry for the family. So young.

    Also Rippetoe: There are few things graven in stone, except that you have to squat or you're a pussy.

    Seems like this guy likes being a football player more than he likes playing football.

    I went a very long time without strength training. Started with a personal trainer at 50. I am putting up some numbers but more importantly my back and knee discomfort are gone and I am much stronger across the board. Do it but make sure you get coached up.
  17. bullzak
    Free weights are definitely awesome but you should also consider getting coached up on kettlebells. Its an awesome tool and you can do damn near anything. About the only thing you really need to supplement is pecs so you can cover that with pushups. Space and time efficient and will be great for your flexible strength. And +1 on back squats. I am going to school on the low back squat. Taking some mastery but I am liking it better than the high squat, even though we are only talking about a few inches [thats what she said]

    Still dont see how you can go hard in the paint unless there is, you know, paint.

    Fuck Potter county indeed. Swing over to Borger where the real party at. They have a Bennigan's after all.

    Fan of the hex bar for deadlift. Its tough to sit at a desk all day and then do conventional deadlifts without risking the back. Not worth it for me.

    Pearlmans book on the 90 Boys is a fun read. The whole barber chair deal to open the book is insane. I dont dig the West portrayal. I mean the guy is one of the legends of the game as a player and front office guy. Dont think that happens if he is a raving lunatic for a few decades. And agree on Westhead. No way that guy could be some kind of pussy and lead these guys to a title. Check out "Guru of Go" on 30 for 30. Westhead was legit. But hey the whole motif is over the top so you just have to buckle up for the ride.

    RIP Mad Bomber

    One of my childhood heroes. RIP Mad Bomber

    Given all the interest in this now there will probably be a documentary at some point where they will contrast events with this show. In the meantime I will take this over the top version because its flat awesome.
  24. bullzak
    Yeah some interesting choices but I guess you compress the timeline and going to Boston and finding your balls in that hostile environment is a good story. The scene I cant wait for is when Buss meets with those bankers after the Lakers win a title. Guess we will see who eats shit then.
  25. bullzak
    Read a couple of books on this. Its an awesome story. This better be good.
