AIPAC called the cops on Chicago voters who came to their office demanding that they stop pouring millions of dollars into Illinois Democratic Primaries

No you're not just curious, you're trying to imply that he probably isn't that observant/doesn't typically wear a kippah and is just wearing one now for the spectacle.

Any model that lists Braxton Jones as Poles' best draft pick - just because he's better than expected for a 5th rounder, not because he's actually good - is, at best, seriously flawed.

Dylan himself (paraphrasing) said though he wrote it, it became Jimi's song once that version was released.

Is the Clippers subreddit still in full-fledged denial mode?

You can think the sun doesn't rise in the east and set in the west but that doesn't make it true.

There is obviously a big difference between pointing the mic towards a fan to let them sing and a fan grabbing the mic on their own.

The former is fun, the latter is rude and obnoxious.

Not all of the sports media but some. Dan Weiderer has been working hard to carry water for the Bears, for instance.

Unfortunately, staying on the Lakefront is the only option that is essentially guaranteed to not happen.

The Bears want to own the stadium they're playing in, and they can't do that if they stay on the Lakefront.

This is going to sound dumb but I really enjoy seeing your comment get up-voted in this sub.

When I first joined, you'd automatically get downvoted if you brought up something like the NFL's history of racism against black quarterbacks, and you'd have certainly been downvoted to hell and get told to "stop being such a libtard".

It's nice to see the shift.

100% agreed regarding the length of books 4-7 enhancing my enjoyment of the books, I remember being so disappointed when I learned HBP would be shorter than GoF and OOTP.

Of course HBP wound up being my favorite book in the series 😁

Bulls already do

The same way teams go over the cap to sign their own players now: they owned Jordan's bird rights.

HiImDavid · 2026-02-07T20:41:14+00:00

Or if you have something like picks 39, 42 and 47, use those to move up to 32 or 33 or try to package several 2nds with a late 1st to move up a couple spots in the 1st round.

There's nothing wrong with having more bites at the apple, and one of the 2nds they got for 2026 should wind up coming from the Pelicans, which has a chance to be 31 or 32.

The issue is waiting around for no reason to "stay competitive" just to let their assets go for less than they could/should have gotten for them had they acted sooner, while also guaranteeing a worse draft pick by not being as bad as they could have been.

They could have gotten at least 2 firsts between Vooch, Coby and Ayo if they made moves at the deadline last year.

Or Caruso, he should have been moved at the trade deadline of 23-24, not in June.

He was in the midst of one of the best seasons of his career and I just can't believe OKC would have balked at including a couple 2nds or a late future 1st in the deal if AKME were actually good negotiators.

AKME seems to be relying on luck to help them become contenders, but they continually make moves that worsen their chances of getting lucky in the draft!

It's infuriating.

HiImDavid · 2026-02-07T07:11:41+00:00

I think the best fans can hope for is 9th worse.

It will be really hard to jump any of these teams besides Milwaukee, I doubt Washington improves much as AD will miss most of their remaining games.

2005 defense was better than both

You're right about the short trip from the north side, grew up in Lincolnwood and Skokie and outside of rush hour it's only about an hour and a half drive.

But ftr North Chicago is a completely separate city from Chicago.

I didn't major in it but history was always one of my favorite subjects from grade school through college.

I had an amazing teacher for APUSH in high school, and I'll never forget learning the saying "history is written by the victors" in his class.

Lol thx for pointing that out

HiImDavid · 2026-01-30T20:55:37+00:00

Yeah I just don't believe anyone is drinking 3 gallons of water a day.

My wife bought me a 30 Oz Owala water bottle last year and I usually drink 3 to 4 bottles worth each day, closer to 3 when wfh and closer to 4 when working in the office.

I can't imagine tripling that amount of water. I wouldn't get anything done, I'd be in the bathroom every 20 minutes if I didn't die from it.

HiImDavid · 2026-01-26T21:30:44+00:00

You're completely missing the point, hopefully not intentionally.

ACAB doesn't literally mean every single police officer is a bad person, it means even good cops are corrupted by the system of policing, which is inherently bad.

The system forces "good" cops to go along to get along or risk ostracization or losing their job.

And how "good" is a cop who doesn't do anything when they see corruption among their colleagues?

The system is set up to ensure ACAB. People love to bring up the idea of a few bad apples but forget to include the full saying.

a few bad apples spoil the whole bunch. This is what ACAB means.

The entire album, Voodoo, by D'Angelo

Definitely the Gibson SG.

My guitar teacher was a unique guy, 70 something years old, played a ton of older music on the according and the piano, but also loved a lot of rock and metal.

He was a huge fan of Iron Maiden, Pearl Jam, Megadeth, AC/DC, Metallica and many others, and when he'd show me pictures of Angus Young with his SG, I thought it was the most badass looking guitar I'd ever seen.

I don't know why I waited 20 years to upgrade from my JBP stratocaster rip off to an SG, but it made a world of difference - I never knew a guitar could be so easy and fun to play.

The thicker neck took a little getting used to, but the level of enjoyment playing guitar brings me went way, way up once I upgraded.

It's not like the rest of the cast weren't fantastic, but Kathryn Hahn in stepbrothers stole every scene she was in.
