  1. Who wants to tell him this isn't impressive?
  2. Let me guess, one of the Lakers players were called for a foul here?
  3. And the H1-B program is basically indentured servitude.
  4. I didn't realize they had fallen so far off a cliff but wow. You're right, though. They had Zion (sometimes) and Brandon Ingram and a bunch of draft picks. They were long and athletic and a good on defense. They were in the playoffs just last year. Dort basically ruined BI's trade value there, too. They obviously need to move off Zion but good luck finding a taker. Hard to believe he's only 24.

    When I finally realized this show is a comedy, it became much better. It's actually quite funny. The low end nursing home joke. "That's where you go when your kids don't love you."
  6. This this real? Please say yes:
  7. An unelected mega billionaire trying to control the country is a bad look and will age even worse. Imagine the right if this were Obama and George Soros.
  8. And give the cup winner an additional lottery pick or something.
  9. The Farmers need to just pull themselves up by their boot straps and get jobs. (This one is almost as glorious as the Dearborn Caucus.)
  10. Isn’t the All Star Weekend basically the Black Super Bowl with black celebs that most white people have never heard of?
  11. Even though it's expected, that's a good pickup for them and a significant upgrade over Arnold. If they get some healthy WR's back and a few OL in the portal, they'll be serviceable next year. With their schedule, 8-4 might be the ceiling. On one hand, it's mind bottling how bad their offense was this past season for a whole list of reasons. However, they made quick changes and cut their losses. One week, Venables said he wouldn't make in season staffing changes. The OC was gone the next week.
  12. Wall Street is finally realizing that Trump means what he says.
  13. To Mitch's point, they're without the other Jaylin Williams and Chet. That's a solid three man big rotation when healthy. Adding Hartenstein was a huge score for them but he just got back. They played the Mavericks (a legitimately big team) earlier this season with no one in the lineup over 6'6". They almost pulled it off when Luka wasn't playing so there's that. Still, they're not a great shooting team to your point. Shai isn't even a great shooter. Great scorer, yes. The only top level shooters on that roster are maybe Chet and Joe. The interchangeable wings works well on defense, though. They're all long and athletic and can switch off on most everyone. Might be low on rebounding but they create a lot of turnovers. Last night they just couldn't hit water if they fell out of a boat. I've never seen them shoot that bad. Maybe it was a big stage getting to them.
  14. A better comparison would be the female Kenny Chesney. Look and play the part, radio friendly songs, and both work really hard. I neither love nor hate either of them but I respect the game and the grind. One reason she's taken over country radio is that there is generally only space for one female star at a time. There can be as many bros as possible but one woman at a time is about all they can handle.
  15. In all fairness, they could swap out their entire offense in the portal and be better off. There wasn't one there that could crack two deep on the current playoff team.

    While she looks great and is perfectly cast for that role, the writing is basically the Beth Dutton character.
  17. If only they were told that before the election. Oh, wait....

    He writes female characters to what men think they should be like and not how they are.
  19. Even the CEO's are realizing.... Donald Trump’s tariff threats have triggered a behind-the-scenes lobbying campaign to soften or alter the president-elect’s plans. But the effort faces a potentially insurmountable roadblock: Trump isn’t budging. That has left business executives scratching their heads about how to lobby for exemptions from the steep tariffs Trump has promised on imports from China, Canada, Mexico and other countries. https://www.wsj.com/economy/trade/trump-tariff-plan-business-lobbying-8f02ccea
  20. Considering how bad the show got, I liked the finale, mostly because it had very little of the actual plot. It was mostly cowboy shit, which was always kind of entertaining. Liked seeing the Lainey Wilson character come back and having made it big and had the cowboy follow her. I also liked the voice over at the end because it's kind of true. Lulz at Taylor Sheridan. Basically fired Kevin Coster and then wrote himself into the show as a character which was a masturbatory fantasy. Hot take and fire away but I actually like Lainey Wilson. Music is radio friendly meh, but she's good looking, works her ass off, plays the part, and that accent. The first time I ever heard her talk, I could pinpoint where she was from within 100 miles. She sounds exactly like all of my in-laws from far South Arkansas. She's from far north Louisiana. Bingo. The cinematography was also good as was the music. The rest of the show was a telenovela for rural whites. Glad I don't have to watch it anymore. I'm sure I'll have to watch something else of his because he's slapping the brand on everything because he has bills to pay.

    I'm amazed how many male writers can't write female characters for shit. David Chase was a notable exception with the Sopranos.
  22. The fan energy in that cup game had all the energy of one of those covid games. I said that Sengun would the 4th best on the OKC roster. Might move that down to 5th behind Hartenstein. Just a complete defensive dismantling of the Rockets. Their 6'0" PG was off so they couldn't score. They had to get him his shots so the 6'0" SG that was #3 pick in the draft didn't even play because he'd be eaten alive. Not one of these Rocket players are a #1 on a title contender but they gave them all money and then drafted a 6'0" SG who doesn't get off the bench. Congrats.

    Likely because he had time constraints being they were movies. Giving a show and it's just a listless plot going nowhere. Entertaining TV, though.
  24. Yes. He can do anything he wants and as an incoming president, he has access to the same intel. This is basically Trump saying "the government." He is the government, at least after 1/20.
  25. I've noticed that most of the people buying into this are right wingers and they're accusing Biden & Co of hiding things. They don't seem to realize Trump has access to the same intel at this point as an incoming president. Why doesn't he tell us what's going on?
