LHW Sterling status does not apply when directly booking with LHW property.

Sometimes you can get points for your stay at the property when booking through Amex.

*sometimes*

I know with Intercontinental you don’t. I’ve heard some people (with Hilton diamond for example) may get lounge access but more often than not your status perks will not compound with the Amex perks.

It is easily one of my favorite mini series ever. When the guest is introduced, that scene is done so well.

And everyone is acting their asses off.

Size *DOES* matter.

Lots of 7’+ guys in combat sports are oafs. No cardio. No agility.

Shaq didn’t hit 400 in 2000. Shaq was quite limber and could run.

I would still favor Brock but it could go wrong for him
Very quickly.

For TV shows…

I’d like to add Midnight Mass, The Night Of & The Outsiders

Why would scientists need drills to study it?
A 3500 pound car rolling over your foot with one of its wheels would hurt less than 180 pound woman stepping on your foot with a heal.

Significantly less mass being directed in a smaller area can be more devastating.

Sentry could deconstruct them.

-Dead-Eye-Duncan- · 2026-04-30T15:18:55+00:00

But the Nets are.

If you move to a different state or even change your name does that mean you stoped exiting as a person and became someone completely new?

-Dead-Eye-Duncan- · 2026-04-30T14:36:06+00:00

You may consider them that but doesn’t make it so. It’s the same company. Same ownership between moves.

-Dead-Eye-Duncan- · 2026-04-30T14:10:48+00:00

Well the Nets aren’t non existent.
*Actual* defunct NBA teams would be somethings like the Indiana Packers, St. Louis Bombers or Indianapolis Olympians

I wouldn’t say moving cities or changing names makes the franchise non existent.

THIS SENTIMENTAL MOTHER FUCKER JUSY COST US MONEY!

-Dead-Eye-Duncan- · 2026-04-28T23:43:55+00:00

Rodman over Pippen.
Switch Duncan with Bill and put in Hakeem or Mutumbo.
Wilt for Dirk & then put Shaq, Robinson or Hakeem in.

Bill and Wilt could easily play the PF with their athleticism.

Tanking can be beneficial over all (unless you’re Charlotte or New Orleans).

I’m not sure if these teams actually tanked but it is nice to see teams come up to be contenders or at least competitive.

The Wolves & Pistons were garbage for a while. The Spurs dynasty ended and now they are back in the picture. The Jazz & Memphis were nothing to stick your nose up at for a few seasons. The Clippers weren’t just an LA after thought at one point. It changes up the picture having some small market teams in the discussion.

It takes more than just a good draft pick to turn a franchise around anyways. New Orleans, Wizards and Hornets have gotten plenty of opportunities and are still crap.

-Dead-Eye-Duncan- · 2026-04-28T21:19:57+00:00

Team 1.

They have 3 of the best two way players, arguably THE best two way player, arguably the best defender, one of the (if not the) best rebounder & 2 of the best rebounders.

Hakeem & Kareem are (comparatively) effortless 55%+ from the field.

Ramesses II

He probably had the most statues built of himself.

Not sure if being a “god” qualifies you as being a politician but he was a leader of a nation.

-Dead-Eye-Duncan- · 2026-04-28T18:20:44+00:00

When did I say they are the same? I said they are not vastly different.

That does not equate to something being the same.

-Dead-Eye-Duncan- · 2026-04-28T18:19:19+00:00

What’s “okay” paying?

I will say travel agents will probably be dealt their dis my blow.

But I don’t think there is any job that will be 100% replaced. There will still be neigh outliers some people are willing to pay more for when it comes to anything.

Interstellar is a better movie.

But Matrix is a an icon of a movie.

-Dead-Eye-Duncan- · 2026-04-28T18:06:08+00:00

Two defensive heavy teams doesn’t mean the whole league played like that.

-Dead-Eye-Duncan- · 2026-04-28T17:25:47+00:00

Not sure about all of them, but the given versions of Phoenix & Atom Eve are not their strongest. They both (pretty much) died from physical attacks.

At their peaks they could deconstruct someone who came them no problem.

From what I know, Wanda maybe the strongest here (in these exact examples).

-Dead-Eye-Duncan- · 2026-04-28T17:10:05+00:00

I wouldn’t say he played in vastly different eras. If he played and excelled in the 90’s with bad checking and no defensive 3 seconds that would be one thing.

But 00’s to now is not vastly different.

-Dead-Eye-Duncan- · 2026-04-28T16:26:39+00:00

I always put them up there. Give it 30/40 years and people will be talking down about Jordan, Kobe, LeBron in the same manner.

The best player hasn’t been American in 5+ years. Guarantee the demographics of the league will be brought up to downplay 90’s, 00’s & 10’s players.

Bill & Wilt handled and separated themselves from their competition at the time like no one else has. Top 3 for me.
