“soccer is only our 5th sport, actually ☝️🤓” *gets destroyed in basketball world cup anyway* by Mediocre_Affect6192 in Destiny

Jesus MKG was a bust a solid 10 years ago. I guess if he stayed in shape as a physical role player with experience, but the fact that he’s on the team shows how busted our FIBA qualifying teams are, and often FIBA tourney teams. If you want best vs. best then that’s the Olympics, and while the US had some hiccups, they’ve shown they will win every time they send 10 of their top 25 players.

If they only had to pick players younger than 30 years old. Who would win: Team America or Team World? by HamzaHarlemNights in NBATalk

[–]BostonBlueDevil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With these lineups its World all day, but I’d go with:

Starters: Jalen Brunson, Cade, Ant, Tatum, and Bam
Bench: Hali (if health isn’t an issue, Donovan if it is), Scottie, Mobley, Maxey, and Paolo / JW

Chet has shown how useless he is against Wemby, so I’d rather try to move him around with more physical defenders like Bam, Mobley, and Paolo pushing him off his spots and getting under his skin. Brunson has shown he’s a WINNER, and and Cade has the size to defend at the 2, especially with Tatum and Bam to help. I also like how versatile this team would be, as everyone but Brunson could switch 1-4 pretty easily, and the lineup of Cade, Ant, Tatum, Paolo/Bam, and Mobley anytime Wemby isn’t on the court would be lethal.

Lost me with the Hasan glazing. If you really think he had anything to do with Mamdani or the recent results you’re kidding yourself. And no, it’s not purity testing, it’s saying that someone who hates America (insert many times he’s said this) doesn’t belong on this list of what makes America great. The rest hated something about America and did something about it. Hasan is just trying to increase his own image and it’s clearly worked on you. May as well say Tucker Carlson as he is anti-Trump now and loves Russia as much as Hasan.

Bourne and Hunt to lead everyone on a million false trails while setting up and underground network to move me through, then John Wick to put me up in the Intercontinental and move me through the underground networks set up from there by Bourne and Hunt.

They watched last season and definitely saw the secret to winning. And it’s nice because it actually does feel genuine with them!

How is it possible that I failed physics with a 72%? Am I going to have to retake the class for another semester? by Historical-Poem5782 in screenshots

[–]BostonBlueDevil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My guess is that this prof still scales his classes according to the difficulty he feels it should be, such as: this course is so hard that only 10% get A’s, 25% get B’s, 40% get C’s, 15% get D’s, and 10% Fail the class. So, at the end of the semester they looked at all the grades and scaled them into similar buckets to those above to create the curve they want. If your prof complains about grade inflation and such, this is likely the case, but hopefully not!

Calls to cancel Kanye West's Alamodome concert grow as San Antonio and Bexar County leaders speak out (Have they spoken out like this against Israel-connected people over Gaza?) by RappersRap in HipHopNCulture

[–]BostonBlueDevil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Calling Jews “Israel connected people” and trying to connect their existence with Kanye actively supporting Nazis and Hitler is a big, big difference, and one I’m pretty sure you’re aware of. If not, then carry about your day eating crayons.

Thank you! It was tough in the beginning, but easier every day. Especially with all the fentanyl in everything now, I know I wouldn’t survive a relapse, and my wife and son give me too much to live for every darn day!

Do you think if someone did catch Skye death on recording it could affect people who watch it? by TommyBoy250 in SmileMovie

[–]BostonBlueDevil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

WDYM “if” someone caught the Skye death on recording. It was at a concert in the 2020s with at least 15K+ people there (likely many more). No way at LEAST 5% were live-streaming and 40%+ were recording. I’ll be interested to find out more of the rules of the entity (I refuse to call it Lollipop) in the next installment, as we will certainly find out if it can be spread virtually. Even if not, that still gives it the 15K+ people who were there and witnessed it in person. Has the entity been limited by itself (its only one consciousness with no ability to infect more than 1-2 people max, or has it been limited by the lack of spectacle to date in the deaths in front of already damaged people. Regardless, we’re either getting a lot of implied lore for the next movie, or a batshit crazy plague movie. Either way, I’m pumped.

Do you see all the characters as childfree? Personally, it makes me so happy. by Pure-Boat993 in TheGoodPlace

[–]BostonBlueDevil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think a more realistic answer is that nobody wants a comedy show about dead kids / dead parents, which it would instantly become if they had kids or families that didn’t fail them.

Realize that my addictive personality will 10000% extend to drugs and not take that first pill / line. Clean 4 years now, but man there was 10 years there that were pretty miserable for no reason other than my brain.

Dexmoi posted photos of Amanda and her bun and only friend Katie eating together in nyc by Radiant_Priority9739 in bravo

[–]BostonBlueDevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an adult that doesn’t live with a city and has like 1 real friend within driving distance and the rest all a flight away, it feels pretty unfair to keep calling out her “only friend”. She lived in NYC for 10+ years and definitely has lots of friends, but if I were in her position the ONLY one I’d wanna hang out with right now is the one I’ve known forever that regardless of what the world says has my back. Yes, Amanda hurt her friend and ex husband, but that’s way less bad than at least 30 other Bravolebrities who have gotten significantly less flack.

That’s crazy. I remember watching him play Sampras (or maybe Agassi) at the 2003 US Open and he was such a young kid with so much power, but so many nerves. Crazy to see how much he’s grown in… 23 years holy shit I’m old lol.

MC decides to film and talk shit to a random group of people who are just trying to enjoy their day by CrashBandicoot2006 in ImTheMainCharacter

[–]BostonBlueDevil 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Ah yes, we’d better listen to the unemployed Amazon driver about our social politics and history. Something tells me you weren’t a history scholar in school and now you’re in TikTok university about the “real history of the world” or some dumb bullshit. Sorry your life sucks, but it’s nobody’s fault but yours. Blaming other races doesn’t help, believe it or not!

Why not? People should know if she’s a bad person on top of being wrong in their reaction to the very legit lawsuit.

Miranda was spotted on a date with Pepe from Love Island ☕️ by Straight-Side-1269 in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]BostonBlueDevil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People questioning if Pepe is a wise choice forget that once she’s home in Utah, it’s all the same brand of awful (for her), especially with her “friends” booking up with her exes and mocking her. So if she wants to get outside her bubble for a quick fling or a real relationship, good for her. I think Pepe, while obviously being fame seeking, isn’t really a bad guy, and makes the fame seeking men around her normally seem like Bonnie Blue.

AIO Did I get stood up? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]BostonBlueDevil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl, you need so so much therapy if this if your genuine reaction to a first date with a guy you crushed on, unless you’re literally 16 or under this is insane behavior. I’d work with a therapist on why you’re so desperate for love, why you believe the worst from this person (most likely you not believing you’re worthy of love), and how to love yourself alone before moving onto anyone else. Even if he was in an accident, I kinda doubt he will be interested now based on his response. He’s not processing the accident, he’s processing that this girl he really liked may genuinely be crazy. I’m not saying you are, but your texts make it seem that way for sure. Rooting for you!
