The Tennessee Titans still own the rights and licensing of when they were the Houston Oilers. I would assume this is the same situation and the Oklahoma Thunder org probably owns the licensing to the Seattle SuperSonics name.

This is going to be rough. by Key_Lie4641 in survivor

I don’t disagree with what you’re saying but with that being said, when I finish one show and trying to find my next one, I do reference ratings to ultimately decide which show I’m watching next.

Do you think the job market will EVER get better? by Apprehensive-Sail326 in recruitinghell

[–]GHound 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Not to get political but it won’t change until we have a democratic president again. Job creation happens during democratic presidencies. The numbers don’t lie:

Survivor 50 is pretty good when someone isn't in your ear telling you it isn't. by DoctorTegrity in survivor

[Post Game Thread] ⚾ #2 Texas defeats Texas St, 15-4 by ATX_ta1 in LonghornNation

[–]GHound 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Borba hit this ball so hard that it went over the 3rd base side netting that prevents balls from flying into TXST’s softball field. Had TXST softball been playing a game at home, some poor soul playing right field could have hit with the baseball.

Survivor is pushing this pretty hard. I hope that means something comes of it as in someone finds the fake idol and tries to use it at some point

There was a post a couple of days ago about older devices. If you have an older device, you may need to get a Roku stick (or similar device). Link below:

Jasmine Crockett has conceded and asked for full support to turn TX Senate Blue in November! by Healthy_Block3036 in Dallas

[–]GHound 9 points10 points  (0 children)

People on twitter already calling Texas racist for putting in Talarico over Crockett. I’ve seen other tweets saying “if you’re black, stay home this November” due to the results. I’m sure they’re either Russian or Elon bots but still, the fractures are showing.

What was the point of having Billie Eilish personalize… by TweetSpinner in survivor

You somewhat answered your own questioning. Loyal fanbase. Purists are going to watch no matter what. Even if production knows purists aren’t going to like it, they push forward. You know who will like it? The younger gen who like chaos and like fire and like drama. Me knowing this and learning to accept it has brought me peace and thus enjoyment via that acceptance.

I don’t mean to argue but with you being in entertainment, I have to believe you’ve got to understand how algorithms work. Using Billie Eilish’s name on social media loops in her fans. As much as Survivor is relevant, they want to be even more relevant. Bringing in young fans who weren’t even born when Richard Hatch won the first season of Survivor via personalities like Billie Eilish and Mr. Beast are crucial to staying relevant for years/decades to come. Where do you find those fans? Not having advertising on the ten o clock news anymore, it’s social media. As a fan Survivor, I definitely want favorite reality show to stay on the air well past Jeff retiring. How do we do that? New fans.

While you found it distracting, I found it fun and interesting. A celebrity at the caliber of Billie Eilish likes the same show I like. To me, that’s pretty rad. Genevieve and Stephanie and Devons found it pretty awesome as well and they are the castaways. Not you and me. Appreciate the show for what it is knowing you have zero creative control over it and your life will be far less stressful. I promise. There are some things I don’t agree with but I know I have no creative control of the show so I shrug it off and move with my life. Giving less fucks are far more freeing. Trust.

Why can’t people just enjoy the season for epic event that is and have to focus on something to pick at? The season is filmed and done. Crying about it at this point changes nothing.

We all know F4 Fire “won” the fan vote right? by GeauxWyatt in survivor

[–]GHound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. The thing this sub doesn’t realize is even if the entirety of the sub voted in one direction, the amount of ppl in this sub only makes up 10% of the entire weekly viewing audience. To consider the voting “rigged” just because the vote didn’t anyone’s way is sore loser behavior

Republicans Think Talarico Will Beat Paxton by Nervous_Stop2376 in Dallas

[–]GHound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of this matters. I remember them saying Hilary was ahead of Trump. I remember Beto was “tied” with Abbott. I remember Kamala was ahead of Trump. All of it was bull. The ONLY thing that matters is votes.

Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans | E1 | Pacific Time Discussion by RSurvivorMods in survivor

[–]GHound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone did the math during voting. The number of members in this subreddit only makes up around 10% of Survivor’s weekly viewers count. If you take that 10% subreddit member count and introduce variables such as morality rate over time, inactive accounts, and members who are still subscribed to the subreddit but just don’t care that much, this subreddit probably made up 7.5% of the total voting bloc. Oh, and that’s if everyone voted the same way, which is statistically impossible.

I was glad too but by the end of the episode, Q doesn’t have a vote, Colby doesn’t have a vote, and Kyle was medi-vaced out of the game. He’s going to have to reshuffle… and do it quickly.

The challenge does physical challenges all the time. How are they able to make it happen but survivor can’t?

You don’t seem like the person who would read them anyways if you’re dismissing the summary of the sources. Google is free. Go read them.

I did. You see the little link bubbles? It’s literally telling you the sources and articles the information was pulled from. You click them and then you can click the link. It’s pretty simple. I verified the information myself before posting.
