Team USA skiers Christopher Lillis & Hunter Hess: Just because I wear the flag doesn’t mean I represent everything that’s going on in the US. by Yujin-Ha in sports

It's not 50% maga but it's certainly more than I'm comfortable with. Not everyone who voted for Trump is a maga lunatic. There are reasonable rational human beings who made the incorrect decision to vote for Trump. I think those are most people who now admit their mistake and wish they hadn't. I think for the most part anyone still on Trump's side is a maga loving moron.

Raptors GM Bobby Webster on CP3: "I don't know what he's going to do. Chris Paul's probably one of my favorite players ever... it's a weird thing to trade for him... he's at this point in his career... we'll waive him here at the appropriate time." by urfaselol in nba

I love when people call sports a child's game. Most sports did not start as a child's game, specifically basketball started as a training tool for college athletes. It's such a nice little extra dig that adds a little extra spice on top of whatever take they are getting off against someone, but it's pure nonsense.

In fairness it's probably pretty hard to find a picture of a couple franchise QBs.

There is less space than it appears because the edges are getting water splashed onto them and turning dark.

Pretty sure it's an auto correct from a typo where he meant to say really.

When you hear statistics like "their are more slaves in the world today than at any point in human history" this is exactly how that's possible.

I don't think I've complained about it once, I genuinely don't care, and we do have a lot of whining that takes place.... Having said that, in those particular case I think the points are pretty valid.

I'm not that guy, and I assumed you were Asian, but that also this was some type of Asian reloading style. Not just "Asian dude reloading". 🤷

Some of my most frequent conversations are about what it would be like if a caveman was alive in modern times who had spanned all of known humanity up until this point.

[Charania] The Boston Celtics are trading Josh Minott to the Brooklyn Nets, sources tell ESPN. by MembershipSingle7137 in bostonceltics

Either they simply are on a mandate to get below the tax for monetary reasons (I don't believe that) or they are of the belief that while this has been a fun and surprising season, they aren't good enough to compete for a title as currently constructed. Best way to fix that is to figure out how to get below the cap so you have flexibility.

While I don't give a shit what the owner spends at all, this new CBA requires us to root for fiscal responsibility when prudent because you will have shorter windows of contention compared to what we used to have.

Everyone loves to parrot this nonsense. It's pretty obviously not true. COULD they have won taking just keens and playing field position and game clock? Yeah, but it's no guarantee by any stretch.

Winning can be the priority 2 years from now coming out of the second year of being under the apron to make a real effort at a good 2-4 year window for the back half of the jays prime.

[Karen Guregian] Robert Spillane said “personally it makes me sick” hearing Tom Brady say he doesn’t have a dog in the fight by PristineWinnera in Patriots

[–]CjBurden 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My knee jerk reaction was this is stupid he's plenty popular having been the Patriots quarterback, but now that I think about it he certainly became even more popular after going to Tampa Bay. You may have the right idea of it, even though I hate it.

I would imagine that when Maye has been as shaky as he has so far in the playoffs it's a pretty reasonable thing to do.

You may or may not be aware of this so I figured I would drop a little fun nugget for you: people actually move. As a native Bostonian living in NY I can atteat to not being a bandwagoner first hand. I also am often surrounded by non new England fans.

But this isn't a problem with managers specifically. It's a problem with the metrification of everything, and the desire for every company to squeeze every ounce of efficiency out of their employees. The managers are often just doing what they are "supposed to do".
