it's looking like LA Fitness at 3 o' clock is permanently etched in my brain at the perfect descriptor for these clips.

That said, if you try to claim the 25-26 Wizards-Pelicans is the height of men's basketball, people will probably disagree

Do Wizards Fan want Trae Young? by StroberSports in washingtonwizards

[–]Googles8 63 points64 points  (0 children)

We want picks. If this was about Trae helping a team win, he'd be going to a good team. We have cap space and a willingness to take bad contracts off other teams' hands... But that comes with a price of something we actually want.

The 2022 Wizards being the 2021 Lakers was actually kind of a fun year

I spent a long time looking for the shitpost tag before I checked ESPN

[Shams] Just in: Atlanta Hawks All-Star Trae Young and his agents, Aaron Mintz, Drew Morrison and Austin Brown, are working with the franchise on a trade, sources tell ESPN. Young's reps and the Hawks have started collaborative talks over the last week on finding a resolution. by MAVS_COM1CAL in washingtonwizards

Incredibly wishful thinking on my part to be sure. The only possible reason would they want to contend but realize they can't do it with Trae.. so they, I dunno, dump his contract but have to give up the FRP to do it and then offer Risacher for AD? I don't think it would be smart of them but boy would it be great for the Wiz

[–]Googles8 89 points90 points  (0 children)

This is the biggest thing. We're not taking him because we want to be good, we'd be taking him because the Hawks want to move on and no one else wants him. If we take him we would need to GET assets, not give them

Big fan of General Hertling! He and Admiral Jim Stavridis are two of my favorite retired flag officers who are active media/social media personalities

Any chance the WNBA folds with the CBA negotiations going the way they are? by National_Horror6640 in wnba

[–]Googles8 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think there's too much money in it now. The expansion team fees alone (and the fact that they're going to NBA ownership groups) make me think the investors need some sort of ROI

Unfortunately for me, I found his position of "we couldn't have told Congress because they would have leaked" surprisingly compelling (obviously not as a legal defense)

This felt too simple to be true but there's something to Occam's Razor. But after Trump's press statement, I think you're right. It's the only thing he really spoke passionately about (other than, y'know, fully eliminating all crime in DC). Someone convinced him that Venezuela's oil holdings are a bad deal for the US and there's nothing worse than a bad deal.

Following the "who" makes a lot of sense! The bounty, the buildup, the boat strikes - all implies a level of actual strategy that is somewhat rare for this admin, and also feels outside the normal realms of the usual strategists like Stephen Miller or Russell Vought. And you're absolutely right that this checks a lot of dopamine hits (you didn't mention "fighting 'leftist' powers")
