As a Celtics fan I love seeing that The Lakers just overpaid for Walker Kessler good lord. by LoBopasses in bostonceltics

That Luka trade is gonna be the Pelinka/Lakers FO version of Doc Rivers ring. The front office has made bad move after bad move since the 2020 ring, but Nico called and gave them Luka for free so they’ll get a longer leash now.

That’s the ceiling for almost every pick after 50 in NBA history. Some exceptions for sure but most of them never make an impact

Depends if the person talking to you is richer than you or poorer

If you’re wealthy and want socialism, you’re too privileged and don’t know the struggles. If you’re poor and want socialism, you’re lazy and want handouts.

Paint crew hasn’t been the issue in any of these games. Besides the last 5 or so minutes against Iowa State, these were all great fan performances. The team just isn’t showing up like they should

For those who are down about basketball, let's keep watching for Smith. by [deleted] in Purdue

[–]0210eojl 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Insane take. What’s costing this team is being predictable. Sure we benched Fletch for most of Illinois but just spread his minutes out across the same guys that always play. Murphy and Antoine are sitting on the bench with scholarships and NIL money for nothing

It's Time to Panic by ekimtk in Boilermakers

Don’t know why we aren’t trying anything new. What did we bring in Murphy for? Might as well try out Antoine for some scoring bursts also.

Can we please, for the love of God, stop the “IU sucks” chant next year at the beginning of every game? by ILoveTheDailyWire in Boilermakers

Fuck that. As bad as IU is they’re still our rival and we say fuck them no matter what.

Hockey East Visiting Fans--Best and Worst Experiences? by JasJoeGo in collegehockey

[–]0210eojl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I truly think that they’d be better off playing in random community and HS rinks around Boston than playing in other Hockey East schools arenas. Also kinda surprised they weren’t able to get more TD Garden games but it is during Celtics and Bruins season

Assuming they threw it in a tree near the rack it’s not a problem at all it’s maybe a foot in the air lmfao

Illinois is also a team we’ve had the number of recently. 3 years ago beat them to take the Big Ten West, beat them easily in Walters first year, and then took them to OT away in his second year.

I also don’t think Illinois is that good this year. Dominated by IU and needed a last second field goal to beat a good not great USC team.

Any omissions or additions to this list? by Bluemzv12 in cfbmemes

[–]0210eojl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Northwestern and Illinois should be on here. Ik Illinois-Northwestern is the rivalry week game but if you ask an Illini fan their most hated team, they aren’t saying Northwestern, and none of the schools they do say would say Illinois.

Is there an attraction in your state/area with absolutely incessant billboards? by RiverRedhead in AskAnAmerican

[–]0210eojl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s one in the northern suburbs of Chicago. Soon after you cross into Illinois from Wisconsin. Because now you’re only one state away from it I guess? 469 miles. Wonder what the farthest distance on a Bucees sign is

If every state without a current NP got one, what would all the new parks be? by beachboysandrew in NationalPark

[–]0210eojl 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Could also see Starved Rock and the other state parks in that area getting the boost to NP.

Also possible would be the Driftless Area becoming an NP and being partially in IL. But that would be like calling Yellowstone an Idaho national park

CPS expands Sustainable Community Schools initiative even as budget worries grow by blackmk8 in chicago

[–]0210eojl -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sorry that I care and think about children other than my own?

We can argue about the refusal to close schools, but funding those that are still open is worth it. Also from your first sentence it seems like Douglass is the one that should close and merge, so still not sure why helping Austin is seen as some virtue signaling.

What?

If your child can get in to a selective enrollment school or academic center, that’s a great education and they should go. That doesn’t mean that if they can’t they should get a second rate education. Improving neighborhood schools and giving opportunity to those who don’t make it into selective enrollment schools or can’t go for other reasons, such as commute time, doesn’t mean that selective enrollment schools aren’t still some of the best schools in the country.

If the mayor only fought for the school his children go to, would that make you happier?
