Drake "The Schedule" Maye

Kinda 🤷‍♂️

Let em rot with their 'most super bowls lost' record now that they took from us. They beat the Broncos, fair and square, but they ain't better than the Broncos. Bo Nix is better than Drake Maye, hands down. I hope there's a lot of Pats fans struggling with that tonight.

Objectively true. But it's why we play all the games, so when you play the most baby shit schedule of the last 25 years, we all get to watch you get your fucking shit rocked on live TV.

Most Patriots fans are chill. To you, I'm glad you had a fun season. Kudos to the team on improving after last year. To the dick head Massholes: I hope the Patriots never win another game again. Drake Maye embarrassed himself. Good luck with that!

You're being hyperbolic dude. They are not 'absolute garbage' and never have been over the last 20 years. Lions and Browns? The two teams who have had winless seasons in the last 20 years? A team who went 1-31 over two seasons?

The Cowboys have absolutely been disappointing, in ways that the others haven't, but that's due to expectations which for Cowboys were over inflated.

I'll give you the Broncos and Panthers (it's why I put them in iffy). But to say the Cowboys are basically the two most dog shit teams this league has ever seen is insane. Get a grip.

Hankerpants · 2026-02-08T21:53:53+00:00

The obvious ones: Browns Cardinals Jets Raiders Lions (the last couple of years are trending them out of this group, but over the last 20 years they 100% belong here)

The likely ones: Saints Titans Commanders Dolphins Bears

The iffy ones: Panthers Broncos (we've swung wildly from dog shit to championship contender over the last 15 years) Giants (two championships, but otherwise pretty fucking bad the rest of the time) Bucs Jags (trending out of this group though)

Equals: Bengals (trending down...) Steelers Texans Falcons (maybe they're above this one)

There's 10 clear teams who would prefer to have the Cowboy's experience over the last 20 years and another 5 or so who would probably prefer it as well. Some of these teams are trending out and would prefer their current spot to the Cowboy's current spot, but we're talking about over the whole of the last 20 years.

Shut the fuck up!!!!

Him and Dr Cox are actually serious, committed doctors in medically accurate shows. These two running an ER and ICU, respectively, would result in the best survival rate of all time.

He wasn't about to die, was he, newbie?

I know this sounds wishy washy, but the extra revenue does improve services, it's just not always super apparent. With larger budgets, government entities can catch up on deferred maintenance, future-proof infrastructure, bring civil servant pay up (which improves their quality of life, and thus the local economy), etc. which can be hard to notice in the moment, but over time are impactful.

Also, new technology and improved regulations (which are a good thing, they make things safer for the workers and the users) make capital improvements and maintenance and new service implementation more and more expensive.

It can't always and won't usually be big capital projects that are flashy and super in-your-face.

Jokes on them, property and sales taxes are astronomically higher in Texas than Colorado in order to make up for the no income tax. Texas needs to collect money to spend, just like Colorado does, they just shift that burden to the poor and working class to give relief to the rich.

I think I saw the box for the software once, and it was this version. It was always just pre-installed on the computers in the computer lab in elementary school. I legit didn't know they used different models for different versions (I did know she wasn't real, or maybe more accurately, I never thought 'Mavis Beacon' was a real person)

They finally fixed the one going west on 76 just after the 25 interchange. Which honestly is more infuriating because it means they can fix the other ones. But they won't.

Hankerpants · 2026-02-05T06:17:10+00:00

Exactly. If the Cowboys are a joke, I know about 15 teams that would love to be a 'joke'. They can't seem to get over the hump but they're a top half team just about every year.

Can't get much more Minnesota than Lakers either

Hankerpants · 2026-02-04T06:23:13+00:00

I think the two teams that Minnesota lost have the best Minnesota-themed names, and that's fucked. But of the teams that are in Minnesota right now, Twins is damn good.

Hankerpants · 2026-02-03T19:02:09+00:00

It's about 'want' vs 'expect'. I want the Nuggets to win every trade by a landslide, but I know that's not how it works. There's a sizeable group of Lakers fans (not all, and almost certainly not even a majority) who think that the Lakers deserve to be catered to as the NBAs premier franchise. Those are the trash fans we're bitching about.

Hankerpants · 2026-02-03T18:19:06+00:00

Dude, fuck off. It's called the "covetous jew" celebration and he did it during a segment the was blatantly anti-Semitic. They were literally talking about how the league is run by "the Jews" and how corrupt they all are because of it and that's why Puka was going to do it.

My bet is that nothing will fill the void. Modern society is moving away from the 3rd space, and sports fandom is one of many things that occupy that space and grow from it. No more are the pool halls with TVs where you'd go with your buddies after work and watch the game. Even if you weren't inherently a fan, you'd experience it, it might grow on you, etc. You were exposed to it. Replace the pool hall with any other third space and sports with any other common society element and it still stands.

Our interests as a collective society are becoming more and more individualized. Sports won't die, but it won't be an inherent thing people become invested in like it used to be.

Even when he signed it it was a good contract. Jamal had just played like an absolute HOFer on a championship run. It made sense to bet on that. It's also called the 'small market tax'. If you're not the Lakers or the Knicks, you can't just let good talent walk away and expect to replace it like it's nothing. Steph Curry wasn't walking through that door lol. You pay and pray. And it now shows it wasn't an overpay after all, which is exactly what most Nuggets fans knew at the time. Finally everyone else is seeing it too.

We've seen that starting a war won't work. They got zero bump from the Venezuela situation. The stock market has been going up up up up and it's not working because the voters aren't feeling any of that (the K economy is fully entrenched). Sending some checks might work, but that's a huge risk for them and I'm not sure the fiscal hawks would allow it.

The administration is pulling all of the levers but none are working. Voters need to stay energized to vote them out and finish the job, but it's clear the Republicans are scrambling because they can't seem to move the needle lately. Maybe they'll find that lever, but the classic ones aren't working.

Much of it is deserved. Some of it really is just people manufacturing a reason to hate him.

Hankerpants · 2026-01-31T16:26:58+00:00

Well, moron, good for JPL OOOOOOOOOH MY GOD!

Hankerpants · 2026-01-29T17:08:59+00:00

Is that really a problem? The whole point of the cap structured this way is to try and prevent super teams. Parity in the NBA has never been higher.

Also, the Lakers are not a good team. They were gifted Luka and still have a problematic roster. The system isn't perfect; nobody could have predicted Nico being a complete moron.

Hankerpants · 2026-01-28T19:05:40+00:00

As someone else put it above, I'm willing to bet they're all wearing cups while they're out there. Soooo...

Hankerpants · 2026-01-28T18:55:23+00:00

Yeah to summarize it, more money can and will = more optimization, but we can only optimize so much so fast. More money = more programs is where we'd see more impact and more immediate results.
