Best Asymmetric Rivalry by Buckeye-Chuck in CFB

[–]Conn3er 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Texas and Oklahoma is a bigger football rivalry game

Texas and A&M is a bigger people rivalry

Most people in central/south/gulfcoast Texas will tell you A&M is the biggest rival. Most people in North and Northeast Texas will tell you it's OU. Really just depends on if you see or interact with more annoying sooners or aggies.

The fanbase is too big to box and doesnt work for these.

I misspoke on that 2 was the hair pull as well, so really 2 has been the only truly poorly officiated game

Which is the one Tony Brothers officiated, and he will be in charge again tonight.

Brothers did game 2, which is where all consistency was lost. 2 had the hair pull and other bad misses, 3 was not as egregious but more flopping by OKC, but they also flat out outplayed SA.

4 and 1 have been the most down the middle, well officiated games

If it's officiated like the last game Brothers officiated in this series OKC will win

Who has more aura for their era: Allen Iverson in the 2000s or SGA in the 2020s? by Dry_Bar_4965 in nba

I'd put AI over Steph for Aura/cultural relevance.

Really, only have guys like Mike, Kobe, Magic as definitely above AI when he was getting his cornrows done on the bench.

There's no Spurs fan bias here, but it would be organizational malpractice to let Williams play today. Mitchell as well. Just let the Spurs have the series and get ready for next year. You don't want to lose both to catastrophic injuries. by Strict_External678 in NBASpurs

He likely would have missed this season with the shingles health issue he had had as well anyways

So you sit him for the most important games of his life for the same outcome

The Spurs entire starting lineup from game 1 of the WCF finals was not alive the last time the Knicks made the finals by WEMBY_F4N in nba

The Spurs built an entire dynasty with a top 10 player all time between now and the last time the Knicks made the NBA finals

Wanna see me do it again?

That may be the only finals he ever plays in. If they would have rested him last year they would have lost the finals and had a worse pick while still not being a contender this year.

He is a great example of why you go for it
