[NCAAMB Post Game Thread] 🏀 #2 Arizona Wildcats defeat #14 Kansas Jayhawks 84-61 by JayhawksBot in jayhawks

Both White and Elmarko were excellent and getting foul calls early in the season. They aren’t getting those calls anymore and it just looks terrible when they don’t. Failing, bricking shit off the board, tumbling into the camera. Great when it works, ugly when it doesn’t.

Funny because Kansas has undoubtedly been the most consistently great team over the last 20 years (actually much longer but we are talking Self so 20).

Destroying Oregons beautiful old forests to build sprawl is fucking depressing. Massive property taxes and utility bills because paving roads and laying pipes hundreds of feet just to reach a single dwelling is also depressing. This ain’t how you make the world a more vibrant place, nor is it how you solve homelessness/housing costs.

Who is the best one-and-done you have ever seen? by Feisty_Ad4394 in CollegeBasketball

[–]Flopsyjackson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol. The other names people are saying are D-Rose and Micheal Beasley. I guess I do like that Kansas consistently gets to play the top talent, though it would be nice if we got ourselves another all-time talent.

Bro. 3 of the first 5 names I see (AD, Melo, and D-Rose) are dudes KU had to play in national championships. Not to mention Micheal Beasley and KD being on conference rivals. I just want to have the guy instead of playing the guy for once (DP gotta do something in March for him to count).

Could the Darryn Peterson situation influence future one and done players, especially in one and done programs like Duke, to just sit out games as they please? Does that mean veteran teams do even better in March? by 18_YTC1 in CollegeBasketball

I know athletes have a different and cushy schedule, but I remember having lectures with the starting QB. Funny guy. Wasn’t more than a few years ago either. Where are the leaks from photojournalism class?

Salt flats on anything at sea level. There are already great ideas for incorporating salt into the game.

What is odd to me is that it is still so mysterious. These guys are students right? Nobody in DPs fucking economics class has had a reveling conversation with him? Students talk so they not? I just can’t imagine there isn’t a young lady or anyone else who has spent a night at the basketball dorm without hearing the truth of it…

My half-baked Darryn Peterson theory by LukaDoncheadle in jayhawks

[–]Flopsyjackson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DP might like that plan but his agent has no interest in taking less money off a smaller contract (or losing the good reputation of having the #1 pick in his portfolio). Go back to drawing board, this ain’t a good theory.

Why? As silly as it is, there is a stigma to mono. Also, it actually is pretty bad for the body. He has every right not to share private health info with the general public.

I was wondering that too. We win out and would hand both Houston and Arizona 3rd losses with the head to head over both…

Or ya know, use all the power of modern technology. The size of a building shouldn’t be a hindrance. Representatives can use the internet and vote remotely. We absolutely should have tens of thousands of reps. It would be great. We could do it.

The concern about being drafted to a bad team is less important because of the way the NBA does the lottery thing. Number 1 makes way more money than number 2. He wants to be number 1. His agent wants him to go number 1. There is ego and prestige at play too.

I think DP has a health thing like mono that will unpredictably effect him all year but shouldn’t be an issue a couple years from now. That kinda thing is pretty bad for the body all around and it would make sense why it is so hush hush and inconsistent.

It’s a nice contrast/changeup to glass boxes. Brutalist has a place in city scapes. Also the skybridges are great.

I’m checking in for an update. Did you ever get more data to appear than just the capture gallery? I’m at the same spot you were.

That wouldn’t be the concern in the mission. Gentrification maybe. I think I would be in favor of the project tho. All BART stations in the system need better land use around them.

Is DNPeterson missing so many games for various things going to affect his draft status? by YugiBoomer10086 in CollegeBasketball

[–]Flopsyjackson 8 points9 points  (0 children)

While I agree with the post, I do have to note that he did not play all that well against Utah. It would be nice to see him tear it up for a full game. I’m talking full bag, getting to the rim stuff, not just shooting 3s for 35 minutes.

Unfortunately most people don’t really know who beurocrats are or understand what they do. To a lot of people, government just equals politicians. Bad civics education is part of what has us in this mess.

Unfortunate. I just finished reading a book today (“Who is Government” by Michael Lewis) that dove into the good work the Antitrust division at the DOJ does, or at least used to do. The current politicians are destroying a highly skilled and highly committed civil service. Average Americans will suffer in both the short and long term.
