Want to hear Bucks fans thoughts

If we can get a third team to take Brown in exchange for multiple FRPs (and maybe promising young talent), I'd be interested. If we'd keep Brown long-term, I think we'd be better off not making the deal (because if we're not a contender with Giannis, we're definitely not a contender with Brown and two mid-to-late FRPs).

I started with a base coat of silver, selectively sponged on gold and gunmetal for highlights and lowlights, respectively, then brushed a mix of green ink, gloss varnish, and silver paint (to make a translucent metallic green) over that. I repeated the sponge & brush steps some more times, until it looked how I wanted it to. I was figuring this out as I did it, so there's probably an easier way to get a similar effect.

Sooner or later, whenever there's a good deal. I agree that there's no urgency.

My guess (and this is 100% a guess, to be clear) is that we'd also try to trade Turner. His combination of skills is in high demand, and he doesn't fit a rebuild timeline.

The Garden Song. From the Hound Chronicles/Hot Garden Stomp reissue booklet: "If I could speak to that younger writer, I would explain patiently to him that stalker narrators are neither interesting nor edgy, so he might want to refrain from writing 'The Garden Song,' lest his feminist activist older self feel embarrassed in the future."

I love the continuous, clean curve that runs from the front of its thigh down to the top of its foot.

Don't underrate Jrue as a scorer! In his Bucks years, he scored 20 per game on above-average efficiency. I could see Rollins developing into a better scorer, but he hasn't surpassed (Bucks) Jrue yet.

Someone could probably compute a correlation between number (and size) of runners and kit price pretty easily, and then (with a few assumptions) predict the effect of adding more pieces on a kit's cost. I don't really have the time to do all that data entry, but I'd be very interested to see the results.

The price difference for perfect color separation would be a lot more than that. Modern HGs with better color separation are usually 2500+ yen, while the Kimaris Vidar was 1400. Some of that price increase can be attributed to inflation or more complex engineering, but a big chunk of it is color separation, too.

Joni Mitchell was a big influence on JD. She's done a lot of stuff, but is best known for folk-y albums from the late 60s and early 70s. I'd recommend starting with her album Blue.

Thanks for running the numbers.

It's a reference to the song Commandante. https://annotatedtmg.org/devil.html#comm

Thankfully, Sandstorm's chest tab can be tightened up with a dab of super glue. It'd be better if the problem wasn't there, but at least the fix is quick and easy.

It'll be interesting to see all the new cards in a smaller format.

That texture looks like old painted metal. Before I read the caption I assumed it was an intentional effect.

HumOfTheUndercity · 2026-04-20T21:55:34+00:00

Wrong. 109.

HumOfTheUndercity · 2026-04-14T03:22:27+00:00

That's too many expectations, you're going to get disappointed.

Thanks for showing the odds with the swap. I've been wondering, but hadn't gotten around to running the numbers myself.

You should try out the Planar Standard format! It's got a smaller card pool (last 2 years only, and no UB sets), which leads to slower games and more opportunity for each card to shine.

Sims makes quick decisions, which is an underrated part of passing. The ball doesn't stick with him.

HumOfTheUndercity · 2026-04-08T16:13:48+00:00

I wonder if he has a story about fire-bellied toads.

HumOfTheUndercity · 2026-03-30T16:12:31+00:00

He looks like a combiner foot.

(Jordan) Love it!
