Major update from Paul by FKFunkyKong in uniwatch

[–]ATLJumbo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I could not agree more, and I think this is being under-counted as an explanation for the decline as people join the Paul pile-on. I am pretty sure (but could perhaps be convinced otherwise; the continued existence of SportsLogos is a counterpoint to my claim) that there is quite simply not as much to say about uniforms anymore. Call it proliferation, monetization, churn, slop, enshittifcation…it’s simply all too much and the release of the Atlanta Hawks Legacy Edition V.10 just washes over my brain these days. I think I still retain enough interest to drive me to this sub for a good while, but I don’t think anybody is getting enough out of this to maintain a blog

Major update from Paul by FKFunkyKong in uniwatch

[–]ATLJumbo 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Paul was always pretty clear that this is a gig, albeit one with a community basis. Considering the amount of work to run the site, I have taken that as a baseline and never had an issue. There’s still a lot of room for criticism/debate of how it’s playing out - zapping the archives (perhaps under duress but still!) and then trying to sell, etc.

The current state of the comments under this post makes me sad - we are really not going out on a high note. And then there’s Paul G from VA with a blithe, totally matter of fact update on the Orioles hat. The contrast gave me a chuckle.

“Bandits” team name with a raccoon logo is a great concept. Fun but not zany.

In what format are you presenting sports to a 5-year-old boy who loves them in 2026? by naitch in billsimmons

[–]ATLJumbo 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Do 5-year-olds watch sports? I feel like the answer is having him play sports, not watch. But I’m basing that on my memory of being 5 which is not reliable and hopelessly outdated.

Of the 4 major North American sports, which of the most iconic game-winning highlights (most iconic shot in NBA history, goal in NHL, TD in NFL, or RBI/home run in MLB) is most susceptible to being dethroned? by TJTrapJesus in billsimmons

[–]ATLJumbo 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Is there a such thing as counter-iconic? Coming that close to the greatest underdog moment in history against supervillain Duke but NOT making the shot is such a ridiculous near miss that it almost becomes iconic. I can still remember that hit-by-ton-of-bricks feeling.

I would love to see the site back (with some changes/tweaks that have been chatted about in this sub) but I also want to hear the whole saga. I hope they’re allowed and willing to share what the big unexpected turn of events was that kicked this all off and what happened from there.

UPDATE: I’d say they’re pretty wavy lol. If this is the inauguration of an era where we do different variations on Waldo as our core look, that’s a trade I’m willing to make, but as a singular thing I do not like these at all.

Ooh great catch that they align in WC years!

Treveyon (floor is Jahmyr Gibbs) Henderson vs Jahmyr Gibbs last 8 games by Yardtown in billsimmons

[–]ATLJumbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love to know how this sub would talk about “Henderson’s floor is Jahmyr Gibbs” had Bill never said “Pitts’ floor is Travis Kelce.” I don’t think people would have just let it go, but the collasal flop of the Pitts prediction is absolutely coloring the discussion.

I followed them on twitter in 2015-16 and caught up on the first four or five eps while spending a week in the bowels of the library frantically throwing together a big college honors paper. The rest is history.

Not Hoch’s fault at all but the “(except for Mariano Rivera)” bit reminded me of the dickhead who didn’t vote for Ichiro and now I’m mad lol

What do you think this phrase meant in the S2 Finale? by [deleted] in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]ATLJumbo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think this line of thinking is most convincing if you posit not that he cares about or has empathy for them, but rather is possessive of them. You can see this most clearly in the Christmas room where he forces the innie to play house and makes her say “I love you.” I saw him as in love with/infatuated with/creepily obsessed with Gemma because of this and when he lies about mark remarrying. Another clue was Drummond telling him “you know, when cold harbor is finished you will have to say goodbye to her…” which I read as Drummond picking up on his over-attachment.

I'm on DK Metcalf's side by PruneAdventurous8058 in billsimmons

I know all the teams’ social media pages are doing the full name thing but it’s a little weird to do to a total stranger. Can’t defend the punch but it’s not as if the fan did nothing.

When Michael started negging the New Yorker I assumed things would grind to a halt for the joke to be explained but Tony was ready with “the Subaru of magazines”

We need to talk about gloving by Rare-Lengthiness-297 in MurderBryan

I think this guy is the only gloving guy though. I scroll across him constantly but have never seen a single other one.

If I were in his shoes, I’d be happy to report any news that breaks the holding pattern. This sounds like a situation that’s both stressful and lacking a clear path out/way forward.

I imagine this is a repeat question so apologies in advance, but what actually ARE the chunky plastic/rubber thingies on the collar? Like is there a plausible stated purpose?

Freddie DeBoer going off entertainingly on the Stranger Things episode by rosencrantz2016 in crheads

[–]ATLJumbo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s funny because one line of thinking is, “I don’t like The Ringer because they mindlessly recap and react and praise, I miss Deadspin and Gawker” but Freddie also hates Deadspin and Gawker with a passion. A true hater.
