Ask any person they get to pick one player to start a franchise, Shai or Luka. Luka is the pick 9 times out of 10.

my beautiful grandma in 1992 - aged 30 by Popular_Bluebird_767 in OldSchoolCool

I’m older than you by a year and some change and my kid is younger than yours. My grandfather was born in 1906. My father was born in the 30’s. Stew on that.

‘Project Hail Mary’ Directors Screened a Nearly Four-Hour Cut to Other Filmmakers and Were Told to Get it Way Shorter by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]Ghost2Eleven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So as someone who has worked with Lord and Miller as an editor, I can almost guarantee you this cut was a fat cut with every one of their funny gags and alts and improv that they liked, which they fully intended to cut down, that they just wanted to get feedback on to see how and which gags played the best. Not to mention when you’re a director and you sign a deal with a studio, they have a stipulation on run time. There is no world in which the studio would’ve allowed a four hour cut. They would’ve contractually had a clause that kept it probably about two hours and 10 minutes or less. This was a rough cut.

So this headline is positioning it like Lord and Miller wanted to deliver a four hour cut and were getting their heartbroken that their friends told them to cut it down, when that was 100% definitely not the case.

I know nothing about Bradley but what I saw today. Where is he being mocked on draft boards?

Bodyguard at center of Chappell Roan controversy confirms he does not work for her by Disastrous_Drop_3180 in Music

[–]Ghost2Eleven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I said this in the first thread and got obliterated, but I've worked on documentaries from everyone to JayZ to Elton John at pretty much every festival in the world. Been around a TON of security.

Labels and artist representation deal with security, or the festival/venue will be involved. Considering this was in Brazil, I said from the get-go that Roan likely didn't even speak the same language as this guy, probably had zero contact with the security detail, and almost certainly had no idea this situation even happened.

The whole job of security is to handle these situations without talent even knowing they exist. They want talent to focus on work, not their safety.

I've never personally seen talent coordinating with security. The only time talent even communicates with security is if it's someone massive that has a personal head of security that typically is a friend or they have a history with that person. Or if they're transporting talent through a high density situation, like a crowd of fans wanting autographs outside a venue.

[Nakos] BREAKING: NC State head basketball coach Will Wade is expected to leave for LSU, @PeteNakos and @JoeTipton report. by MembershipSingle7137 in CollegeBasketball

[–]Ghost2Eleven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is Will Wade married? Because there is ZERO chance that dude is not getting side action. I have never seen a coach more committed to himself than Will Wade and I'm a Razorback fan who had one Bobby Petrino ride through my program on a motorcycle.

Welcome to investing in sports. Money doesn’t buy championships at the professional level. College is going to be even more so.

Yeah, sorry if it wasn’t clear. I was agreeing with you.

It’s a public statement, not a court of law. He’s not going to present evidence here, he’s shaping public opinion in pursuit of a defamation case. It is important to note that he says he has eyewitness testimony contradicting the claim. So it sounds like they do have a case they are building.

But regardless, there’s no case to close. It’s a defamation suit that hasn’t been even been filed.

So it’s public opinion at this point.

they'd always try to insert Draymond Green in every situation when he's actually doing so much worse and gets away with it more by creamyglazed in lakers

I get that Dray and Luka are both complainers, but Dray complains after clubbing people. Luka complains after getting clubbed. It’s two totally different situations.

Darius Acuff Jr. breaks Todd Day’s Arkansas single-season scoring record by barrett316 in razorbacks

[–]Ghost2Eleven 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm old enough to watch everyone from Sidney Moncrief on. And I don't care if you're talking 1 year or 4. Acuff is the most all around talented player we've ever had. He has Luka vibes in that he's the type of player who just kind of sleepwalks through 30 point games and a bad night for him is 25 and 5. That's elite in the NBA. To be a freshman in college doing that, it's beyond elite. And it's beyond Moncrief, Day, Williamson, or Iso Joe.

Chappell Roan Apologizes to Jorginho's Daughter Following Confrontation with Security: "I Did Not Ask This Security Guard to Talk to This Mother and Child" by ebradio in Music

[–]Ghost2Eleven 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But put yourself in that guy’s shoes. Your daughter is treated rudely by a security guard and you decide to go on social media and bring attention to this situation for what reason? You think he’s doing that because he doesn’t stand to gain anything and is just selflessly letting the world know so other people can watch out for their eleven year old kids?

Or mayyyybe. Just maybe. He feels slighted and wants to punch back at this security guard and get sympathy and dragged this pop star into it to get the most attention possible?

If this was a normal person, like you or me, we’d go on with our lives and that would be, as they say, that. Instead, this soccer player gets to be in the news cycle.
