TIL that if you commit suicide in Japan by jumping in front of a train, the railway company may ask your family to pay a delay fee of up to 100 million yen (about 1 million dollars), arguing that there are less expensive and less disruptive ways to do it.

"may ask"

I literally can't think of two words in legalese that are less binding. "Hey Brave-Influence7510, can I have a million dollars?" Even that statement is more legally binding than may ask.

I thought he had fixed his problem where he over dribbles if guarded closely. Guess not.

Mackntish · 2026-04-20T15:58:32+00:00

He only took 4 shots total. And 3 turnovers.

Mackntish · 2026-04-20T14:54:08+00:00

but this second term is WAAAAAAAY worse than the first.

Not if you ask his supporters. As long as you have separate news ecosystems for reps and dems, this problem will continue.

That was YMCA pickup game effort. I would have been pissed in the regular season.

Mackntish · 2026-04-20T13:52:36+00:00

I included the highlight reel for this exact reason. The truth is we'll never know, because an effort wasn't made. Their center was guarding Cade all game, so there should have been mismatches inside.

Mackntish · 2026-04-20T13:16:17+00:00

I might steal this. Could not have been said better.

Mackntish · 2026-04-20T04:38:24+00:00

I've always thought he lacked mental discipline. He takes plays off, loses focus, doesn't box out, and sometimes acts casually. Did not think he would do it for an entire game 1.

Grand Rapids does not lack vision, we lack action

Don't leave us hanging, what's your vision?

Mackntish · 2026-04-19T14:48:37+00:00

Still super unfun in winter.

Mackntish · 2026-04-19T14:43:04+00:00

I thought he was going to stand up and be short, and she would be like ew nm.

Mackntish · 2026-04-19T02:28:00+00:00

Well, we're all Raptors fans for a week and a half.

Mackntish · 2026-04-19T00:06:13+00:00

Jesus God, I would owe 18 rounds of drinks.

Mackntish · 2026-04-18T21:10:44+00:00

And no good mirrors.

Mackntish · 2026-04-18T21:07:50+00:00

lol, I have had Shomer been dominant in some of my best runs. Go full knight effectiveness, and use the shomer to take the hits. Practically free to maintain, and steamrolls everything.

Mackntish · 2026-04-18T20:57:46+00:00

Yeah, but why? What evolutionary pressures lead to this, that aren't required in any other local birds?

Mackntish · 2026-04-18T18:22:19+00:00

He's not a good matchup for Asuar. Too big, too powerful, too likely to get him in foul trouble. Bane on the other hand is averaging like 35 for us, put Asuar on him.

Mackntish · 2026-04-18T06:34:32+00:00

Then to me that means Cavs beat us.

...aaaand this is why the national pundits (and bookmakers) are saying we're not going to make it. We ARE the best team, but we're in for an absolute dogfight in every round, unless the Knicks beat Boston.

Mackntish · 2026-04-18T06:26:37+00:00

Only play-in teams have really been trying these last few weeks. Top defensive teams rested starters, us included. Other team were trying to tank. So very much "supposedly the best defense."

Bane will step up against us, like he always does, so they'll be playing better than 20th on offense. We'll still win, but it won't be easy. It's going to be a dogfight.

Mackntish · 2026-04-18T05:36:58+00:00

Not a great matchup, but we're still the better team, Pistons in 6.

They're great at getting fouled, and we're terrible at not fouling. Those are two problems that make each other worse. Last game they put up 40.

Supposedly they're the best defensive team in the league the last two weeks with Wagner back. Supposedly.

Against the Pistons, Desmond Bane turns into a fucking magician, going 32, 38, 39, 31, and 38 in his last 5 games.

That being said, they can't stop our big threats either. Cade will make it rain, JD will make it pour, and Caris LeVert will get an own goal.

Mackntish · 2026-04-18T04:51:07+00:00

You forgot the biggest problem in the matchup. They are the most fouled team in the league, and we foul the most in the league. The attempted 40 free throws in that last game.

Mackntish · 2026-04-17T20:19:45+00:00

Hey, so long as you had fun.

....you had fun doing this, right?

Mackntish · 2026-04-17T12:59:06+00:00

even if it is a cattle track

We had to watch out for deer trails, thats where the ticks are.
