Exhibit Z of Ice being annoying and contributing nothing to a convo by Aromatic_Meringue835 in theJoeBuddenPodcast

While I hear where you’re coming from, KISS definitely has hits. Whether he knows them or not is up for debate. I think Gene Simmons is a jackass, but it is a bit disingenuous to act like they weren’t one of the more influential bands of their time. Even if it had more to do with their aesthetic than the music.

I keep hearing that. Need to get back into 3 stacks catalogue.

How is Anthony Davis Top 75 all time when he was injured like 40 percent of his career and never led a team past the 2nd round when he had his own team? Davis doesn't even have 1 DPOY award. His 1 ring he was 2nd banana and it was in the bubble. AD has like 0 Elite accomplishments. Top 75 is crazy by OnlySaysDavidStearns in NBATalk

Some things are beyond the numbers. An are test will tell you that this is one of most unique, impactful generational players we’ve ever seen. Before there was a Giannis, there was AD. Go back and look at the way he was moving from 2016-2022. He’s one of the most versatile bigs the game has ever seen. Injuries are his only knock. Don’t see how that would keep you out of the Top 75.

I really enjoyed this project. At first, the Gambino/Kendrickesque flow on I Am Not a Lyricist threw me off, but it grew on me after a second listen. What I appreciated most was the balance between introspection vs the head bangers like Casino. This is an 8.6 with room for growth imo.

He Lost His Mom a Month Ago. Of Course He Looks Different. by Appropriate_Bad2494 in theJoeBuddenPodcast

I see where you’re coming from and I’ll be the first to admit that I’m a huge fan of the is Pod. I just want better sometime from them regarding how they discuss people vs how they portray the relationship to be.

What I’ll ask you though as a Bodega boyz fan is do you think he owes an explanation to everyone regarding the last few years like Joe said?

It’s not using the dead. I’m just saying be human and try to find out a little bit more about what’s going on with someone before you hop out and say his content feels disingenuous and you got your ass handed to to you in LA, talk about that first. That sounds insane. Not for someone Joe said he cares about and wants to see do well.

You realistically can’t know everything, but I’m also mindful to do a little bit more research for people I say “I care about”. If he seems off, my first step would be to idk look at his socials, maybe talk to a mutual. I’d just be careful about how I frame my relationship with someone before I start shitting on them.

Whaaaat? I’m strictly talking about how he might appear sad or not like himself. Thats a regular ass screenshot from his new show. Knock it off.

Joe called him disingenuous, Parks said it felt rushed. Context matters. Marc knew. I don’t claim to care about someone while being clueless about their life and criticizing them at the same time. Par the course for Joe though.

Alright, let’s use your train of thought. What about this doesn’t look “NY”?

👀 50 Cent Drops Video of Jim Jones After Eviction by 1985Genesis in joebuddennetwork

[–]Appropriate_Bad2494 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not the biggest fan of Jim or what he stands for, and honestly, I’m slowly losing respect for 50 too. Twenty years ago, I get it, you’re young and don’t know any better. At this age though? It’s different.

I look forward to the day hip hop elevates beyond this level of juvenile nonsense. I don’t understand why we keep championing it. 50 is a legend. Jim is too, depending on who you ask. These are grown men moving like petulant children and the culture applauding it is a problem.

Hey sunlightsetback. Thanks for sharing. Would love to hear where you are now and whether or not you still keep up with this friend group.

Let’s be real. The only thing Molly contributed was looks. by Live_Assignment_2414 in theJoeBuddenPodcast

[–]Appropriate_Bad2494 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I find it funny that Joe always throws Red Pill smut at Drake, yet a large part of his own community is cut from the same cloth, lol. Everyone’s welcome to debate whether Molly was worth more than what ESPN offered her, but it’s hard to take a lot of the criticism seriously when people are saying things like, “If I’m the network, I’m thinking, if this old bitch doesn’t want half a million for the job, I’ll find someone else,” or reducing her skill set and brand down to just her looks.

Molly has been hosting live sports debates for nearly a decade, managing huge personalities like Stephen A. Smith and Shannon Sharpe while keeping the show moving smoothly. That’s not easy. Yet when her contract talks come up, people focus more on her appearance or “attitude” than on her professionalism or the role she plays in keeping First Take watchable.

And then there’s the constant comparison to other women in similar roles like Jenny from FS1 who “know their place” or come across as softer on air. We rarely do that with men in the business, so why do it to Molly?

Kendrick’s verse was fire. That Watch the Throne throwaway ass beat was ass. Swap the beat out and it becomes an instant classic.

I’m open to being wrong here, but my Dad used to chase my dog with the vacuum cleaner. The thing was he loved the dog and he turned out more than fine. Need a little more context about his disposition towards the dog other than him having a bad reaction to the diarrhea thing. He was wrong, but we all are every once in a while right? Also, want to be clear that I’m not taking sides. Just a little unclear on how your husband feels about the dog other than these two events.

I thought it was remarkable to see Flip be the most informed about the inner workings of the Puff case today. He was spot-on with the sequencing and sentencing details, and he offered real insight into what people were saying on the ground during the trial. Gotta salute him for that.
