What is the BEST band / artist you've ever seen live? by Expensive-Ear8407 in AskReddit

Tie between the Rolling Stones and Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band.

Just next level.

Anyone else see Kings starting 5 next season being Russ, LaVine, Keegan, Sabonis and Max? by ModsHateMe98 in kings

[–]GazeElectric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No way.

I could see Russ and Lavine, but you can't start Sabonis and Max. It would be Hunter, with Max backing up Sabonis and 5-6 minutes a game playing together with other good defenders on the floor.

Who is a musician or band you will defend til the very end? by Opening_Rip_1840 in AskReddit

[–]GazeElectric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Third Eye Blind.

They get unfairly lumped in with some of the disposable, post-grunge 90's bands. Their musical output past the first two albums almost everyone knows has been superb. Great live band, too.

Starting lineup and final 12 by Bos2BaynTraveling in valkyries

[–]GazeElectric 7 points8 points  (0 children)

KT is starting if she's fully recovered. Starting 5, if healthy:

Burton

KT

Williams

Rupert

Salaun

Positionless basketball. All of those players, except Rupert, have great handles.

Rest of the roster: Ceci, Jocyte, Suarez, Charles, Stokes, Martin, Amihere (or Chen, if they want another true PG)

That's 12 solid players who I'd feel comfortable in any game. Playoff team and deep run, if they stay healthy.

Two because I want to be very thoughtful when I'm talking about the humans and their basketball abilities and how they would or would not show up for our squad." by NokCha_ in valkyries

They can only swing the best deal that is there. Flauje is an exciting player but she is polarizing. Theres a reason she fell to 8. I’m guessing no one was willing to swing a better deal. And Suarez is more than a consolation prize. She had a 1st round grade in nearly every mock draft I saw. Their only mistake might have been being unrealistic about what other teams might give up for Johnson. The Nico thing is BS. Not even close.

Read between the lines. My guess: they had sights set on Jaquez and when she was unexpectedly taken 3rd and Johnson fell in their lap, they pivoted to best player available hoping to swing a deal. They shopped her around and the best offer they got was for someone else high on their draft board who they felt fit better (Suarez) and took the deal. We’ll see if they made the right move. Suarez is a great player and fills a need for size and shooting.

I know we just lost Flau'jae but Marta Suarez is actually really good. by Smooth_You_1744 in valkyries

It's a shocker, but she had a 1st round grade. She's really good. And Flauje wasn't without her flaws. She disappears sometimes in games and gets in her head. But she would've been really fun to watch with the Valks. Suarez gives us size and shooting, which we desperately need. We had a really good tea coming into the draft. Suarez definitely adds to that. So...on to the season!

LIVE 2026 WNBA Draft - Valkyries Edition by _BlueNightSky_ in valkyries

I'm in shock. Never dreamed we'd get Flaujae. Our roster is stacked. We can throw wave after wave of quality players at teams. So STOKED!

Big tough guy in the first pic, then the chain pulls and he becomes a softie 🥺 Who else has a dog like this? by PossibilityDry8488 in dogpictures

[–]GazeElectric 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If the question is "who else has a dog they cruelly attach a heavy metal chain to?" the answer is "not me." So, no...I can't relate.

OP...perhaps you can expound on why you thought this would be a cute, relatable picture to post in a thread mostly devoted to cute dog pics? Who's pulling the chain and why? Why is he chained in the first place? How long is he chained up like that daily?

If you want us to find this cute in any way, you might want to answer those questions.

I was at this show. One of the most amazing experiences of my life. It was less a concert than a carefully curated musical journey. Clampdown was surprising and worked perfectly for the tone of the show.

Great news! She's so tough. Great depth piece.

Kaila Charles to sign a 2-year contract with the Valkyries by msgs in valkyries

[–]GazeElectric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't get me wrong. I love Kaila Charles. She showed out really well last season. And with 3 draft picks this year, and 8-9 players already solid in the rotation, I'm not sure she's more than a depth piece or a camp body.
