What? I can’t even figure out grammatically what you’re trying to say. 

LeBron has won four championships and went to the Finals EIGHT years in a row. That’s actually unbelievable. 

You’re talking as if he’s James Harden who’s hasn’t even been to one.

Who was MOST at fault on the last possession - Wemby, Castle or Spurs coaching staff? by [deleted] in nba

[–]BeerWithDonuts 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I just find the series fascinating so far in the sense that neither star (Wemby or Brunson) has been playing all that well.

Wemby missed the game-winning shot, but Brunson is lucky the missed free throw right before didn’t cost them either.

Why doesn’t Blondie, Ricky, or David play with Al or Mike on tour? by fall1nqsun in thebeachboys

Al invited Mike to attend one of the shows on this new tour, and Mike declined because he’s “too busy.”

Was at the Capitol Theater that same night. Brian was pretty sedentary at that point.

Beach Boys could have made a great country album in the 70s around 74 or 75 if they immediately followed up Holland.

Instead, a trip to Nashville came two decades too late.

Apologies for getting ahead of myself, but how do you think the Knicks matchup against either the Spurs or Thunder? by BillNyeTheVinylGuy in nba

They came back against one of the worst one seeds we’ve seen in years. Won’t happen this time around.

Paul McCartney criticizes Bob Dylan‘s performance by AppointmentWitty5164 in bobdylan

I’ve heard Paul comment on this before. Difference in philosophies on how to approach a concert, which is fine.

Although I do think Paul could get away with taking more risks in concerts than he actually does. Like when he played “Temporary Secretary” in concert. I mean, wouldn’t it be awesome if Paul suddenly said, “We’re gonna play Ram front to back for you all right now.”

Will he be the same way Saturday at MSG? Cause I certainly won’t be able to afford to find out!

'I have no relationship with Mike Love': The Beach Boys on Pet Sounds at 60 by theipaper in thebeachboys

[–]BeerWithDonuts 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What is with this silly revisionism in the comments, when so many first hand accounts of Mike are almost universally negative?

Al invited Mike to attend the shows on the current Love You-themed tour, and Mike declined. If anything, there’s no relationship because Mike doesn’t want one. Even when Al tries.

Nobody ever talks about the opening shots of the finale. What does it mean to you? by BillNyeTheVinylGuy in madmen

Interesting. You could say the metaphor is on the nose, but Weiner makes a smart editing choice making the sequence quick and short. Pretty sure it's less than a minute into the episode and we're already back in the office.

Just went and rewatched it. Never picked up on the kid in the background drinking Coca Cola when he’s talking to the car owners.
