  1. You are going to be disappointed a whole bunch of you expect everything to be done right when you want it done. Just because he hasn’t done it exactly how you want it done does not mean his team isn’t trying to figure out a way to do more.
  2. None. You boot them out and let them roam the wilderness as an independent.
  3. One thing that I know to be true of most Americans is they expect instant results on EVERYTHING. That just is not how it works. You give folks time to implement their policies and make decisions. Expecting anyone to do every last thing they ran on within the first half of the first year is just not possible.
  4. Must be nice retry cool living in a city with this as your mayor in the biggest moment for the Knicks in 53 years. He connects with that city in a way no mayor has in that city since, well, ever. That’s genuine joy right there.
  5. I think it’s safe to say that Anunoby will never pay for a restaurant meal in NYC ever again. Might only get half off at a bodega deli, but that’s not nothin’.
  6. I told him you aren’t in New York. He’s a big guy anyhow (6’3” and around 280 or so.) I don’t really think he’d have an issue. Either way he’d have been at two finals games that I don’t think he thought he’d ever see. I always think that if you can see history in the making (Love history as my posts on several threads can attest to that.) as a possibility that you have to go if you have the means and he does. Game 5 should be good. Young teams can shrug this off because they don’t know any better. It isn’t going g to be a blowout even if the Knicks win.
  7. I have a friend who is a lifelong Knicks fan going back to Bernard King’s heyday. He went to Game 2. He drove down from Dallas. I told him to go to game 5. He’s a big guy, but he said he doesn’t want a situation like what happened with those dumb Knick fans going wild on Spurs fans. I told him I don’t think it’ll happen down there and I mean this is your once-in-a-lifetime chance to see your team win a title. He was 2 or 3 on the last title so this would be his first to see. I said you gotta go to this man.
  8. My guess is no one plays them in the conference. Again I’d just boot them out.
  9. He went to one of his sympathetic fellow maga cult members. It’s just so embarrassing.
  10. I gotta say that was my first thought as well. That was definitely AI slop. Still somehow smarter than anything coming out of Campbell’s mouth right now.
  11. That guy is a billionaire yet I’d be shocked if he could count to potato. Just an incredibly low-intelligence person.
  12. Personally what I would do, and again this is just me, I would find either a smaller museum that would display something like your collection so many other folks can see it or I would get some of it put up in some display cases at an Amvets hall or any other veterans organization. I believe that stuff being as visible as possible can strike a chord of curiosity in someone that could lead them down a path where they want to do something that involves working in the history field. This world could use all the history-loving people it can get right now.
  13. I believe it’s worth reading about if you ever have some spare time and want to. It would give you some good stories to share with others that likely do not know about the Kokoda Track. I think the best way to describe it is imagine if we sent some irregular troops to Guadalcanal and just said “figure it out” instead of it being the Marines. Then throw on top of that having to hack a path through the jungle at some points more than a full mile and a quarter above sea level in the tropics. So you’re hacking a path in your retreat while fighting the Japanese who are sending more reinforcements. You’re also fighting the mosquitoes and the fun diseases they’d like to spread to you. THEN while you are carving a path backwards you decide on more than one occasion to “what if we ATTACK THEM?” Then you go do it, lose your highest ranking officer in the process, but continue holding out for reinforcements from regular Australian troops while succeeding in attacking the up to that point Japanese supersoldiers. They are rightly revered for this and their National War Museum in Canberra is one of the best in the world and features this battle prominently, as they should. We lionized the Alamo defenders as kids. These fellas were that kicked up to a 15 on a 10 scale. It’s amazing what human beings can and will do when they feel their homeland being threatened because this is what that was for them. It was a real FAFO moment for the IJA.
