  1. Pho Dien is the correct answer to this thread.
  2. I'm voting Yang until he's off the ballot. Then its Warren. Everyone else is just a vote against Trump.
  3. They all work in the sector of one of his biggest policy pushers (automation). Truck drivers, ff workers and retail. Anyone with eyes can see that's where the market is going. For the most part, that doesn't really apply to the Surly demo. I'd guess most of us would be on the other side of this equation.
  4. I think the only problem comes from the number of former Trump supporters who have flipped strictly to the D side for Yang. He is the only one resonating with that group and their problems which doesn't really seem to fit the Surly D demographic.
  5. I think the gimmick is the only way he has a shot. He's the only candidate who's not a politician and he isn't a celebrity like Trump was. If he keeps hanging in there he can get his other policies out there too. They all make a ton of sense to me. He doesn't have much of a chance this election but in 4-8 years maybe he will have enough cred and experience at the time to make a real run. Maybe my bar is too low but smart and decent is all I want out of a politician ( on both sides). It would be miles ahead of what 90 percent of what this current climate is.
  6. Yeah saw that. I think it's legal if he uses his own money to do this. If not the Reddit Founder said he would already do this for Yang if it turned out to be illegal. Also pretty brilliant way to get people to check out his platform on other issues.
  7. Biden is such an unimpressive candidate who can barely string 2 coherent thoughts together so I guess people won't have that much to adjust to if he becomes president. There's really only 2 candidates that stick out to me. Both for the same reason. Warren and Yang are extremely smart and have detailed policies to back up their rhetoric. Personally, I'm on the Yang train after reading more of his platform. HIs ideas may seem way out there t some but I think he's just way ahead of everyone else in terms of identifying problems and finding solutions. HIs solutions come with data/logic/science and after this abortion of a president I'm all for the exact opposite ( an Asian who likes math).
  8. I really think Yang is going to wind up with a lot more support than most think. He'll grab a lot of the independent right leans because he's educated and non threatening. He's way ahead of the curve with his ideas and I think it'll set him up for a serious run in 2024/2028.
  9. He's a damn good Dr. Strange.
  10. You've never watched an avengers movie?
  11. I hope his wife is hit by that same bus. (no racist - Asian here)
  12. I wish DC and the X Men(with a few exceptions)could get even close to something as good as SFFH and I found it to be a middle of the road Marvel movie.
  13. We can still do it if we send them Lee and probably a few 2nd rounders. Either way the Mavs will masquerade this pile of dung Plan Z as Plan A. I remember when this ownership and FO were doing things so radically different. Ironically, they are in the same position they were when Mark first bought the team. Back then, they were all about talent acquisition.
  14. Okie still has to dump a ton of salary. I'm at the point now where I'm praying we can get Gallo from them at a 23 mill 1 year rental. Also seems likely since it fits Donnie's fetish. Gallo Luka and Zinger would be fun to watch. F it. Lets get Gallo and Goran and just try to field an all euro starting 5.
  15. Skin thinks Iggy and Dragic are both possible additions but he was also confident we(Mavs fans) would be very satisfied with the summer. Even both would be a serious underwhelming summer.
  16. If he had chosen the Mavs initially I think he would have had a completely different career. Dirk would have had no issues letting DHo be the man and would have had an organization that would have treated him well.
  17. Green to LA...2 yrs 30 mil. Don't mind missing out on him but the Mavs FO showed they completely had no idea what they were doing once FA started.
  18. Interesting news about Boogie...he changed reps today to Jeff Schwartz who's super chummy with the Mavs. In the end it probably doesn't much though. Kawhi also likely re-signing with Toronto so Green is likely gone. Nothing turning out the way the Mavs hoped for FA so it's the norm for us.
  19. Anyone have a list of the white euros left in FA? Just want to know who we're going to sign next.
  20. Donnie will think its a bargain. I really don't understand how that would be preferable over Boogie at whatever price he winds up at(knowing he's having a hard time getting even an exception offer right now).
  21. Makes sense. White Euro. Donnie's weakness.
  22. connecting flight to chicago. team boogie but mavs seem determined to overwhelm us with their overpayment of mediocrity. Knowing the FO we'll have the greatest amount of cap space next yr in the worst FA class in recent history and still strike out. We'll roll that powder for 20-21 on the Giannis do-over and strike out again.
  23. Crazy that 2 yrs ago Boogie was #1 on the Mavs wishlist for a max candidate. He's the guy left on the market with the upside and he would come at a serious discount. Don't understand what's going on with his market. He has problems with coaches sometimes but teammates seem to like him and he didn't have any issues with GS. Looked productive in limited minutes and seems natural that the averages would climb back over 20/10 with 30 plus minutes.
  24. I think right now the Mavs FO is completely hoping their improvement in the win column comes from Zinger returning and Luka improving. If they had even a semblance of a plan the playoffs would have been realistic this year.
  25. I'm on board with a Boogie deal. Coming off an injury he still averaged 16/8 in 25 minutes. Could be a bargain if he steps it up a bit in yr 2 after an achilles injury.
