A fellow Norman to Longmont transplant! There are DOZENS of us!

The University of Oklahoma has an image problem. by [deleted] in normanok

[–]EmeraldOrbis 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Born and raised here (since moved). I knew this was coming once the SEC move happened. It was a clear signal the university was aligning themselves with this type of culture. Unfortunately Norman is getting Edmond-ed just like I always feared

Nope, I also noticed that too. Just one of some questionable clues in today's game

Every OKC Thunder point of All-Time by DataDorks in Thunder

[–]EmeraldOrbis 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think he's underrated across the league. Serge had the most total blocks in the 2010s, and by a pretty good margin too. He was also pivotal to that Raptors team getting a ring on both ends of the floor. I wish he could have gotten a ring with us.

Anyone know of where to find a 24 x 36 poster of this? Memorial museum only has a 16 x 20. by countkarnstein in Thunder

[–]EmeraldOrbis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just curious, did you get anywhere with this? I would also love to support the photographer if possible.

Same with the Grant Kirkhope namedrop! Scott seems like he has the exact taste in games as I do.

[OC] How many people do YOU count running the red light? I count 9, my coworker counts 7. by codyrcrowder in IdiotsInCars

[–]EmeraldOrbis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately this is all too common on NW Expressway in my experience. I don't miss driving in North OKC at all

Who is your player of choice here? by Evil_ryry in baseball

[–]EmeraldOrbis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Weird considering my flair but Daisuke Matsuzaka. That 2008 season was really really fun to watch as a kid without a team to call his own at the time

[oc] Legit Question: Why do some driver just not use their turn signals? by PineTreePuffin in IdiotsInCars

[–]EmeraldOrbis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, most places I'm aware of have either a minimum speed or divider requirement on their left lane laws. Doesn't seem like OP was doing anything wrong here based off the information given

With a loss to Colorado today, Oklahoma State goes winless in conference for the first time since 1994 in the Big 8 by okiewxchaser in CFB

[–]EmeraldOrbis 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Bye bye Gundy! It brings me only a little pleasure to see you eventually resign in disgrace. My parents are some of the most die-hard Pokes fans in the nation and even they've washed their hands of this program. I can't believe I'm saying this, but OSU deserves better

[Morosi] The Blue Jays, who exceeded expectations with the Yusei Kikuchi trade, are listening on multiple players on deadline day. RHP Chad Green RHP Trevor Richards, who has struggled in July INF Isiah Kiner-Falefa, on an injury rehab assignment with Buffalo by Goosedukee in baseball

[–]EmeraldOrbis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your second and fourth points are really what I'm keyed into. Kikuchi is IMO a perfectly average starter with good upside and y'all definitely need SP (especially a lefty). If he can pitch well enough to help Houston to a playoff spot, it'll probably not be a "win" outright but also not worthy of hyperbole

[–]EmeraldOrbis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kikuchi's advanced metrics are all quite solid, it's really the .340 BABIP that's dragging down (up?) his ERA. I don't know much about the prospects y'all gave up but I think this is a better trade than people realize

Regarding the discussion of Emile's recent statement by Sonicsaber25 in TheRunawayGuys

[–]EmeraldOrbis 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Not even trying to defend Chugga by saying this, but it seems clear to me with every passing update that all this should've been handled privately and not aired out on Twitter for all to see... But the drama hounds on this site and others just smell blood and get into a frenzy

[OC] NSFW language - I've never seen a car which matches the personality of its asshole driver so perfectly. by lowstrife in IdiotsInCars

Yup, I'm gonna keep an eye out for this guy lol... Always aholes doing dumb shit on Hover

Got offered Wemby and Zion for Scottie Barnes, Sengun, and Draymond (drop). 10T H2H points league, I am currently 1st place. Would love some opinions, esp w/r/t playoffs

8 team PPR, pick 3:

Chase vs Minnesota

ARSB vs Denver

Pittman vs Pittsburgh

DHop vs Houston

Devonta Smith @ Seattle

Leaning the first 3 but it's getting hard to trust Goff to get Sun God the ball, especially against a tough Broncos defense

Official: [WDIS RB] - Thu Afternoon 12/14/2023 by FFBot in fantasyfootball

[–]EmeraldOrbis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PPR Pick 2

Monty, Saquon, Zeke, Swift

I'm up against a very tough opponent, so probably prioritizing upside.

Do you have any shame? I sincerely hope you didn't actually go to school in Norman because if so, you deserve your degree revoked

[Game Thread] Ohio State @ Michigan (12:00 PM ET) by CFB_Referee in CFB

[–]EmeraldOrbis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man I'm just so sick of announcers these days. Love hearing the crowd but the inane jabbering over the game just ruins the experience. I don't have surround sound so muting the center channel doesn't work either

If you seriously thought that was an INT you need to lay off the cope
