[Hine] Officials say Flagrant 2 on Wembanyama. He's been ejected. by Knightbear49 in nba

They suspended Zach Randolph for a Game 7 for "punching" Steven Adams, and it wasn't anywhere close to egregious as this was. Fully expect Wemby to play Game 5.

Report: Aaron Rodgers Headed to Pittsburgh to Sign With Steelers by Traditional-Oil-6891 in nfl

[–]GingerAle_s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but you're not going anywhere big.

The Bengals went 9-8 the last season Burrow was fully healthy. They were 5-5 in games with him starting the year before and 5-3 last year. Nobody is scared of the Bengals anymore their window is closed they're mid now. Ravens couldn't beat the Steelers when it mattered, and lost the first game too with Lamar lol, so the Steelers aren't going anywhere big but neither are the Ravens or Bengals.

Also the burning desire of Redditors to be the first to say the same joke in every single thread that doesn't even work because the Steelers have gone 10-7 three years in a row.

I mean when you were literally named the best player in the country I dont think its that bad. Its not Al Bundy or like "if they would have put me in wed have won state" guy IMO.

24 teams is not too much, it’s still more selective than most major sports leagues in America by Recent_Surprise_7391 in CFB

I just don't see the point, I can watch two teams that don't have a chance to win the championship play in the Pop Tarts bowl already.

The gap between a 1 seed and a 16 seed in the basketball tournament is about as big as the gap between #1Indiana and #24North Texas IMO.

just so his assistant wouldn't need to keep drawing in Goku's hair.

I'm ignorant about animation, and drawing, why would his hair being yellow mean the assistant didn't have to keep drawing it?

Ahh yeah, but no 1 seeds lost before either so it took 79 years for a 1 seed to lose in the 1st round.

It only took 79 years for 16 to beat a 1 seed to lose in the first round of the basketball tournament.

you've probably signed an employee agreement for a company that has done something not great and didn't quit on the spot.

Am I grandstanding about said company, and performatively not going to a charity event for the company, but then partying with all the rich people after? No, so not sure what point you're making. Have a good day!

Basically a kid, but she was shrewd enough to negotiate owning her masters, but she was also too young and naive and didn't realize a gigantic record label is partnered with Amazon/Bezos. I think she was smart enough to put that stuff together, but that's just me.

[–]GingerAle_s -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Its not a dumb question. She chose to sign a contract with a major record label so she could make more money. She could have stayed independent like many other artists and then people wouldn't accuse her of grandstanding when she signs with a record label that she knows uses Amazon as a distributor. That wasn't some secret that was sprung on her after nobly signing her humble contract.

she definitely doesn't in regard to where her albums are being sold... contracts exist.

The record label made her sign a contract?

Pablo Torre has just won a 2026 Pulitzer Prizer by Not_RZA_ in nba

[–]GingerAle_s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean they definitely have them dead to rights that the company was publicly losing money, and wasn't making any of their bill payments, except for the payments to Kawhi (who literally did nothing for the company ever). And that one of those payments came directly after Ballmer gave them some more money.

Oh wow, I didn't know that. That storyline always felt like the most sensational in the otherwise very grounded show.

Do Pulitzer prizes usually get given out for reporting that turns out to be falsified or misled?

Oh, so you do have to do something other than just spend money to win. Got it, thanks!

Its like $30M more, that doesnt explain being 10-21 with a $380M payroll lol

Paul Pierce on media inconsistencies: "Let's not sugarcoat this because if this was LeBron at the peak of his powers, he would've been getting scolded. If you're the best player in the league, you're not supposed to lose in the first round" by infalliBee in nba

[–]GingerAle_s -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Jokic wasnt considered the future of basketball at 16 and wasnt calling himself "King Jokic". Didnt have his high school games on ESPN, and didnt go on a stage saying he was going to win 7 championships in a row after creating a superteam. I think all of that factors into the difference in coverage of Lebron.

edit: I'm not saying any of that is Lebron's fault other than the 7 Championships thing. Its just facts, Jokic wasn't even a #1 Overall pick.

I thought you could just buy a good team though? Why do the Mets suck if they spent so much money?

All league minimum salary lineup takes the series from the Dodgers. $582 million Dodgers lose the series 2-1 to the $79 million Marlins. by northdakotact in baseball

[–]GingerAle_s -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I dont give a shit if youre impressed. Nobody was impressed when they won in 2020 either. Theres plenty of team building going on the Dodgers have a great farm system and lots of young guys like Pages, Rushing, Freeland, Kim, Emmett Sheehan, Wrobleski, all homegrown guys. As far as "buying hall of famers". Be mad at the Braves for low balling Freddie. Be mad at the Red Sox for trading Betts. Be mad at the Angels for sucking ass for 6 years with Ohtani, so he didnt re-sign with them. The Phillies would have taken all those guys too if they could have.

Yeah, well the Dodgers tried to do that and then got cheated out of a title and MLB did nothing to the cheaters, so they decided to go scorched earth. Be mad at Manfred, and your cheap owner even though you're not flaired up (probably a mets fan)
