  1. I slob his knob when it comes to Twitter. That’s the only product of his that I use. I think changing the name of Twitter to X was stupid as hell. No one calls it X.
  2. Fuck!! KC and Baltimore back to back with just 5 days rest sucks. Also, we aren’t getting the Cowboys on Thanksgiving which sucks ass.
  3. Please explain. Who do you think is pulling his strings as their useful idiot? The Republican Party, Nick Fuentes, who?
  4. Elon was one of the first investors into Tesla and was actively involved before they produced their first EV car. That’s a founder in my book.
  5. Starting a successful car company from the ground up is one of the hardest things to do, not only did Elon do that, he created the the first EVs for mass consumption while also laying the foundation for their use with the Supercharger network. He followed that up with SpaceX — launching rockets into space, which I hear is pretty hard to do. To say that his accomplishments are mostly due to luck is ridiculous. Let’s be real here, y’all hate him because he owns Twitter. This thread didn’t blow up until he did. I don’t own a Tesla but I do spend a lot of time on Twitter. I appreciate what he is done to remove the censorship that plagued it in the past. Twitter still drives conversation for sports and politics and makes up a large percentage of posts on this site. Remember all the hype about Threads last summer from the same haters here. We don’t hear much about Threads anymore because it sucks. Anyone who prefers a Zuckerberg owned product over Twitter needs to have their head examined.
  6. Like Hakeem, Joker did not get love and admiration for the same reasons: not an American, English not the first language, humble personalty and both did not play in NY, LA or Boston. It took both of them to win their first championship before getting the recognition they deserved.
  7. Isn’t that true for most threads here
  8. Speaking for myself, I value the unedited video on its own and not the commentary by the poster of the tweet. I acknowledge that my Twitter algorithm is from sources that I value with similar world views. That doesn’t mean the video itself is disinformation or not true. Do you have issues with clips from tweets posted on the Ukraine thread?
  9. Disinformation from raw video footage. LOL.
  10. TNT/TBS has carried NBA games for 40 years. If the NBA had any sense of loyalty or care for their fans, they would have kept TNT as one of their broadcast partners. Peacock, which is the worst streamer out there, is going to host most of the games — just watch. Cord cutting and streaming has been a very bad deal for sports fans. I’d much rather watch games on DirecTV than streaming any day of the week. Fuck MLB, NFL and NBA for screwing over the fans.
  11. He is posting irrelevant shit about protests in Israel and about an Army officer resigning. Read the thread title CR dorks.
  12. Why? I think he has good knowledge and is a familiar name that regularly added to the Houston sports threads. He thinks he is right all the time which isn’t unusual in a board full of assholes
  13. Finally got some luck in the draft lottery. Assuming Sarr and Risacher are gone, we should have the pick of the litter. Reed Sheppard would be ideal. We desperately need a good shooter. He could become our Donte Divincenzo. A strong case could be made for Clingan too. This offseason is going to be huge for Rafael Stone. He has a lot of pieces to use for a big trade for an established star like Dejountay Murray or Donovan Mitchell. With the right draft pick/trade, the Rockets can join Minnesota and OKC at the top of the West for the next decade. BTW, where is @HtownHorn? He hasn’t posted here in a couple of months.
  14. Not a good start to his career. Having Jones fractures in both feet is a bad omen for a big DT.
  15. We are in agreeement. Espada is not a good manager but he is not the main reason we are in the toilet. My main beef is with Dana Brown and the shit job he’s done with roster construction. Dana has earned the right to be the first one fired. My hope would be restored if Crane sees the light and gets rid of the main source of our problems. Unfortunately, I predict Crane will take the easy way out and make Espada the scapegoat.
  16. Wrong. He is David Culley in a baseball uniform. Is he the entire reason why this team sucks — no but it’s clear he doesn’t have the chops to be a big league manager. This team is playing like shit and he is the easiest guy to fire. Crane can delude himself to think all will be well by replacing him. It won’t — nothing will get better as long as Dana is still the GM of this team. He isn’t smart enough for the job. Bring back the Ivy League baseball bros that we had with Luhnow.
  17. I like thinking about ways to improve this team. This current regime has no clue how to build a championship squad. Brown is pulling players straight out of the garbage, guys that the fucking A’s discarded.
  18. Number 1 priority for this team should be ditching the “back of the baseball card” idiocy from Espada and Brown and getting Bagwell as far away from the decision making as possible. I want to be the smartest organization in baseball again. Bring Ng in and revamp the organization. Dana doesn’t have the brain power and analytical skills to be a good GM. Fire him after Memorial Day.
  19. Hader almost fucked that throw to 1B.
