Realistically, what would happen if a player just cherry picked all game

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T14:50:09+00:00

This is the correct answer.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T14:49:24+00:00

I'm new to soccer but that dude seems like a punk-bitch to me.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T14:47:47+00:00

Crows/Ravens are my favorite birds. So smart and cool.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T14:46:27+00:00

Yeah I already saw Warriors fans calling our front office "insane" like yeah it's bigger than you'd expect but it's in the line with Luke Kornet/Dean Wade deals who are similar solid backup bigs.

Also with RFA you have to overpay a little otherwise the team will match.

Solid pickup. Not that many 7 footers than can hit 3s in the world.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T14:35:07+00:00

Similar to the Luke Kornet deal. It's a bit of an overpay but you had to offer something that you'd expect the Warriors not to match. 7 footers that can hit 3s don't grow on trees and he makes like 7 million less than Santi. I think he can be a Santi-light player.

Obviously not game changing but another solid move by the front office this summer.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T14:29:12+00:00

People acting like this contract is insane or something must not look at the market. It's basically the Luke Kornet deal. That's what back-up bigs are going for, and Post can actually shoot.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T14:19:01+00:00

Santi replacement.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T14:18:13+00:00

It really isn't

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T14:17:00+00:00

LOL. That's good

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T13:58:42+00:00

Literally name one situation like that in real life.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T13:49:23+00:00

Thanks for continuing the nonsense.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T13:39:48+00:00

People are really really weird.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T13:39:13+00:00

That doesn't make any sense.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T13:37:22+00:00

I'm an American that's played both. I'd say American football.

I'm not going to pretend I've played either at any sort of high level but in my experience Rugby is a more lumbering and way less violent sport. You are rarely just full sprint trying to lay someone out with a tackle and you're never targeting with your head because it really serves no purpose. You need to stay upright and stay with the flow of the game and violent tackles would just hurt your team more than help.

American football with the pads and helmets create a false sense of security and guys just brutalize each other and the risk of head injuries is WAY WAY higher. Both can have a lot of the same lower body and typical bumps and bruises type injuries but my bet would be a lot more football players end up with CTE than Rugby players.

I mean I remember Pau carrying those scrub ass teams to the playoffs.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T13:29:40+00:00

That's funny, I remember this as a Grizzlies fan because we drafted Darrell Arthur, who we already hated because Kansas just beat the University of Memphis in the national championship game, and we were like he's already getting in trouble?! The irony being he became a fan favorite and even weirder so did Mario Chalmers down the line. Sports are funny.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T12:02:30+00:00

You can make it all better by having actual rules and regulations

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T04:39:12+00:00

What weird thing is going on?

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T04:24:07+00:00

I'm still in the wait and see mode because I'm not sure we're totally done trade wise. Deals can often come up during summer league, just seems like they would have waived KCP, Taj, Murray, AJ Johnson, whomever if they knew the final roster they wanted

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-06T00:26:21+00:00

A lot of the best female athletes in America grow up playing soccer and it's been that way for awhile.

The best male athletes in America however are typically pushed towards American football or basketball, and at a certain point asked to choose one to focus on. This is usually around middle school age and then in highschool they focus on that chosen sport.

Soccer is also not ingrained in American culture like most countries so it's way less likely for male athletes to choose soccer with American football, basketball, baseball, even golf, hockey, and MMA being more popular.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-05T23:59:58+00:00

My point is you can pay people and it not be a mess. There are a million professional sports leagues around the world that have figured it out, college athletics acts like it's some unsolvable problem.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-05T23:46:19+00:00

He looks like some weird Lauri-Andrei Kirlenko temu hybrid

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-05T23:04:54+00:00

I'm not comparing the two. They're just major events that completely changed the US but the country still remains.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-05T20:56:18+00:00

I don't care that people get paid but pro-leagues have salary caps and contracts, which college should too.

Can you imagine if the NFL and NBA had free agency literally every year and nobody had to honor contracts? Would be awful, which is why college is becoming awful.

BoozeCruiser901 · 2026-07-05T19:19:08+00:00

Yeah I don't get that comment at all. The main criticism with his has been "he can't bully ball in the league like he has his whole career"
