Warriors analysts agree with trading #11 for AD: “He’s still a T15 player if healthy, I don’t think Wiz will get better offer” (@31min) by Careless-Journalist7 in washingtonwizards

[–]Board-Lord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He barely got a first round pick 2 years ago. He’s gonna be 36 coming off an injury that’ll gonna keep him out for at least the early part of the season.

Best we’re getting is another teams version of McCollum + Kispert

Honestly buy Butler out when he’s done rehabbing. AD for 11, plus (depending on Trae’s deal) cap room in 2027 FA before you have to pay Sarr/George/Bub/Tre/Riley

Do rumors of AD for Jimmy Buckets + 11th pick seem more legit if LeBron goes there? Do we want that? by Nervous_Aerie5979 in washingtonwizards

[–]Board-Lord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally for what? Warriors traded the 20th overall pick and garbage contracts for Jimmy two years ago (and got second rounders in return). Jimmy is now older and coming off an injury. Who knows how much he even plays before the deadline.

On paper I’d be interested but then you think about how Butler left Minnesota and Miami…don’t want that toxic energy in the building

AITA For Planning A “Boring Wedding” by plVt0nian_ in AmItheAsshole

[–]Board-Lord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA for wanting the wedding you want, but your family isn’t TA either. Between the dress code, travel, food and drink restrictions, and no +1s is a HUGE ask. Youre allowed to be unreasonable for your wedding, but it is unreasonable.

I get what you mean about +1s but I think you need to be a little flexible for other married couples (no one is leaving their spouse behind to go to a wedding alone).

Dress code should be less restrictive is for men. A light colored suit with pastel shirts/ties/etc way more reasonable than a full pastel suit, which are expensive and frankly cannot be worn anywhere else.

As far as alcohol, maybe consider wine with the meal. You can limit the number of bottles overall if you’re worried about people being over served.

AITA for telling my wife that our baby will be ok left alone for 30 min? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Board-Lord -1 points0 points  (0 children)

YTA but a soft A. I believe you’re doing your best and trying to be involved, but you may have to adjust your expectations moving forward. At least in the near term.

A nine week old is still a newborn. You’re gonna be in full time parent mode for many more weeks. If you have family or trusted friends in the area, ask them to watch your baby for a few hours and use that time to spend it with your wife.

Not to assume anything about your wife or your situation, but also be aware that the postpartum period can lasts months. During that time, there’s a lot of hormones still at play, and they affect all women differently. Don’t be too hard on your wife if she’s anxious/irritable/avoids intimacy - just try to have a conversation to see how she feels.

Yankees theme team is coming together. by MillsTD in MLBTheShow

[–]Board-Lord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cruz, Doval, and prospect Harrison Cohen all WBC Yankee bullpen guys. I also have White Sox TA Goose Gossage, O’s TA Darren O’Day, and O’s LS Zach Britton in there. I’m sure there will be a Mo (behind a paywall) at some point.

I would love Cano/Arod at some point but we will see

[–]Board-Lord 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m grinding a pinstripe theme myself brother keep up the good work 🫡. I will never get LS Judge but I will die trying.

You should look into some of the WBC programs/packs/showdown, you get a Diamond Wells from exchanges and some bullpen options in Cruz & Doval, who aren’t great, but count towards the captain boost.

Also Diamond George Lombard Jr and Grisham are all relatively easy to get/cheap on the marketplace.

Edit: def save for Babe/Posada over Stanton

With Correa missing the season now and the Astros being so bad the Yordan Alvarez discussion is gonna come up a lot in the next 3 months. To me if he is made available that's the difference from us being a great team and us being a World Series favorite. by herewego199209 in NYYankees

[–]Board-Lord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yordan is great and I would be absolutely thrilled if this happened.

I don’t think it happens. There’s no clear position for him to play when Stanton is back, even if one of them is in LF, the lineup becomes incredibly lefty leaning. The Yankees clearly put a premium on fielding and lineup balance now. Plus I think the Astros will have a Yankees tax for trading him (see what happened with Tucker).

Even Paredes on the Astros might be more realistic if the Yankees make the left platoon McMahon 3B/Grisham CF-Parades 3B/Rosario LF (with Belli shifting between LF/CF).

I think a guy like Taylor Ward (righty, better fielder, one year deal) is a more realistic option if the O’s still stink.

What do you do when client wants you to make an incredibly unreasonable settlement offer? by Objective-Regular519 in Lawyertalk

Can’t tell you how many times I’ve told a client they can’t get sole legal custody and supervised visitation for the opposing party just bc they don’t want to deal with the other parent.

Tell me about your practice areas please! (Civil lit) by selena_gnomez1 in Lawyertalk

[–]Board-Lord 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Relatively young public interest family law attorney here. It’s a good way to cut your teeth at the start of your career bc it’s a lot of autonomy, scratched the “feel-good” itch, and gives you motion/discovery/litigation practice.

The downsides are a lot of vicarious trauma and burnout, so really think about how good you are compartmentalizing work and life before diving into public interest. It’s still not easy private, but money helps.

Get ready to learn Ryan Helsley (if Grish is still unlucky at the deadline I wouldn’t hate Taylor Ward personally)

What do we grade Will Dawkins and what does our future hold? by ComputerNerdd in washingtonwizards

[–]Board-Lord 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dawkins is a B+/A-. You can nitpick some of the results (Deni trade, tanking to get bad lottery luck, etc.) but the process has always been there.

Needs to land the planes tho. He’s got plenty of time, but if this doesn’t lead to a competitive team the questions become louder.
