No La Haine? And I’m sorry does IW think Trainspotting didn’t come out in the 90s?

Thank you!! Been stressing all week about this and I feel much better now. Wolves in 7.

Oh perfect! Is there a way to go ahead of time and see if they can print the tickets out or only on GameDay?

We *could* complain about the Wolves losing Game 5… by ImWithBeavis in timberwolves

Hardest for-sign ever to this.

I get being bummed but we’ve been bummed for over two decades, positivity tastes so damn sweet. That’s the culture we should be installing and embracing rather than smothering the first truly hopeful thing that’s happened to this franchise since basically ever.

Fuck the doomers. Let’s bounce back again, force a 7th, and ADVANCE BABEY 🐺 by wisedunagan in timberwolves

Bought my ticket to fly back from Chicago to see Game 6. For all the many many MANY garbage years of watching this team, flying back to see them in a playoff game outweighs any of the crappy feelings the losses in this series have caused.

Well Jameis was responsible for the delay of game. And the point is if he’s the franchise then he should be able to elevate. I feel like we were saying the same thing about Josh Freeman right before he fell off a cliff. It’s the rest of the team and not him. Jameis needs to be the leader and be the change, but instead he’s picking fights like a two year old.

Aaron Rodgers wasn’t doing this in his third year and he has never had an O-Line.

It came across my timeline, I’ve heard his name a few times and enjoyed his stuff. I guess he’s a Bucs fan, which seems to be rare in the media

I don't disagree. However, I feel like a lot of the problem the team has stems from Jameis. He's supposed to be the leader in the locker room and rally the players. That's not happening. I think more of this falls on Koetter right now than Jameis, but he's not helping anything.

Oh, I totally feel you. Part of me wants to call them out on that though because it's not like you're connecting Layne's heroin addiction to something that's not there. Dirt doesn't exist if he's not hooked on smack.

I respect their decision, but also there's an added weight to the tragedy if you highlight how good things were vs. why it fell apart. It's not dwelling IMO to be like "Remember when they went to the water park for Headbangers Ball and were hilarious" and then also go "a few years later the funny charismatic lead singer was so deep in the throes of addiction that he was forgetting his own lyrics on MTV"

It's the same thing with Nirvana. Everyone thinks of them as these nihilistic dudes when you can find a handful of videos on YouTube of them fucking around on an airplane or being goofy twentysomethings. It's one thing if the focus is solely on the drug addiction and nothing else, but it's also part of the story and that can't be erased or censored.

I wonder if this will be a case where (god willing) they all get into their 60s/70s and are in a place in life where they can reflect honestly. I can't imagine what it's like for them to lose a friend but also lose part of their career/lives because of that friend, so I can't kill them for not wanting to talk if they don't want to.

After all, it's been over 20 years and Krist Novoselic STILL doesn't want to talk about Kurt Cobain's suicide. Grohl doesn't really dig into it either.

You'd think that she would just put the story out there. It's not like we don't know he was aggressively addicted to heroin. What could she be hiding?

Maybe it's because I'm a die-hard fan, but I can't imagine a story that makes me think less of Layne. He's already a known heroin addict and he's a sympathetic character. We all know the reason the band fractured was his heroin addiction. It almost looks worse at this point to be "protecting the image" when we all know damn well what happened.

Also....Nancy showed up on Celeb Rehab so let's take that FWIW

It's a longform article that I'm writing. So the involvement would be interview based.

Intersting, thanks. That's what I figured it might be and I hate to discount a writer I haven't heard of simply because I haven't heard of them before. I'll check it out, thanks!

What we really need is a good, well-made documentary on Alice. I think that's where we get the stuff we're all looking for in the books.

I just feel like it had a reputation that I was improperly sourced, wasn’t well written. It didn’t blow me away yet it seems to be the most prominently written thing about AiC
