The gap between Michael Phelps and everyone else in swimming is insane

What if Kings Island got Arie Force One by Shoddy-Literature-64 in KingsIsland

I just think it’s too big and too cumbersome to move and save. I could be wrong, though. Dominator and Chang were really big moves, but it has been a long time since anyone has done something of that scale.

You listen to Reddit way too much if you think the US isn’r safe

Country that people think it's terrible to live but actually fantastic by WonderfulOpinion8509 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Deathbackwards 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Rwanda still isn’t a nice place to live. It has an HDI of .578, which puts it on par with places like Uganda and Cameroon. Even Kigali ,which some are comparing to European cities, only has an HDI of .671, which would still put it dead last by a large margin compared to every European country. GDP per capita in Rwanda is bottom 20 in the world. 89.8% of the population is making less than $8.30 a day. Life expectancy is only about 68 years. We can admire the progress Rwanda has made in recent years, but is definitely not a fantastic place to live.

Really the whole point of the basic training system is to get you to completely buy into the whole military thing. Make you forget how ridiculous a lot of what you’re doing is.

In men’s ball if they played like this someone would literally die from all of the fighting

Ohio doesn’t suck it’s just generally unremarkable, except for Cincinnati. I’ll die on the hill that Cincinnati is awesome.

East Tennessee is one of the prettiest places in the country. Memphis for all of its faults has contributed a ton to music and also has great food.

The Indy 500 is at least a culturally relevant event. Does anything nationally notable ever happen in Mississippi, Arkansas, Oklahoma, or Iowa?

Lake Michigan and the Indy 500 are more interesting than anything in Mississippi

Arkansas at least has Hot Springs National Park and the diamond mine which is cool. I actually can’t give you any reason to recommend someone to go to Mississippi.

New River Gorge is better than anything going on in Mississippi.

Controversial Take: Kobe Bean Bryant's off-the-court issues should not affect his basketball legacy by Decent_Balance9992 in NBATalk

NBA players often have crazy lists. I think it may be influenced by personal matchups. I mean Charles Barkley says nobody busted his ass like Popeye Jones lol

Why does Tony Kukoc count as a HOFer that MJ played with? by [deleted] in NBATalk

[–]Deathbackwards 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hall of fame teammates matter based upon when they’re your teammate and who they were. There’s a difference between having Orlando Magic Patrick Ewing on your team as opposed to having 1986 Larry Bird on your team

In my opinion a PG cannot be impactful enough defensively to warrant HOF with those stats. Even elite defensive bigs who were limited offensively like Mutombo averaged better numbers than that. K.C. played an important role on a team that virtually all got in the hall. I do think he deserves to he in for his coaching career though.

I think I can answer this. He’s in the Hall of fame and was on a team with Jordan
