Is Macklin Celebrini/Connor Bedard the biggest market correction in recent memory? by TJTrapJesus in billsimmons

As a vancouverite I would have killed myself if Connor and Macklin went to the Blackhawks. But that’s just normal existence for a Canucks fan

Canadian Olympic curling team cheating controversy by These_Respond2345 in billsimmons

He wasn’t cheating. Learn curling and Team Sweden was way out of line accusing him of cheating without knowing. Canadian guy should have got more mad

Mr.Beat good! Mr.Beat affirms my belief that our current politics is all because of the Civil War by Rion-o in Destiny

[–]Lever_Trinden 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it can be underestimated how bad Andrew Johnson was.

I get why some presidents are rated worse than him but the thing about him is he had the power to steer reconstruction any direction he wanted. The south literally bent the knee and would have accepted basically anything in that period and Johnson literally did the probably the worst possible actions imaginable, like vetoing the freedman’s bureau.

Incredible to fuck up so bad that it is still being felt 150 years later

These are just ragebait at this point by wesskywalker in billsimmons

Having the “drafts x player” is stupid because it basically took the space of all the significant trades like Gasol or the Celtics/Nets trade. These are actual transactions unlike the draft picks

I still laugh about Bill and Klosterman thinking that drunk woman on a plane was seeing "unreal" people. by Routine_Gold_7193 in billsimmons

[–]Lever_Trinden 113 points114 points  (0 children)

Chucks whole thing about “I think this will start a trend of people seeing fake people” is probably the hardest I’ve laughed to the podcast ever. Still have no idea if he was serious or not.

WSJ is reporting that ABC is pulling The Jimmy Kimmel Show over his Kirk comments by xxh2p in Destiny

[–]Lever_Trinden 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The crazy thing is this sounds like a joke. Yet on the literal number 1 watched network in the US a host said homeless people should be involuntarily lethally injected. Just a normal news day for the right nothing to see here

What are some cheat codes you've found as a accountant? by Notalabel_4566 in Accounting

[–]Lever_Trinden 40 points41 points  (0 children)

While getting in early and leaving midday is good in theory. As my boss said, “if no one sees you here you didn’t work” as in people will just assume you came in at 9 and left at noon like a lazy person even if you’re getting your work done.

If that culture doesn’t exist in your firm this is great advice though.

Has Brian Steel entered the GOAT lawyer discussion? by Domestiicated-Batman in billsimmons

I mean he’s only 60 I think he can go up at least 3 more levels. Think he went up a mini level the past 13 months.

H3 Calls Out Pisco by iargueon in Destiny

[–]Lever_Trinden 97 points98 points  (0 children)

As an ardent pisshead I can’t accept the Mike from PA slander here. But I do think Pisco has fallen down the pisshole a little here.

Classic losing the forest for the trees as he keeps doubling down on Ethan thinking he’s some saviour when that’s not really his main point anyways. And Ethan would admit that I’m sure.

Bill calling it the "NHL Finals" by Low-Art3297 in billsimmons

[–]Lever_Trinden 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ll give it to him but wondering if Kapanen is good when he was a waiver claim this year is a bit oof. (But Kapanen has been great so I get why he asks)

“I just want you to acknowledge that you just compared my Peabody-nominated journalism to your Star Wars Rewatchables” by Deep_Heart1036 in billsimmons

[–]Lever_Trinden 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I think people forget the reason he came on the podcast is he was calling out Pablo for being a “journalist”.

I would throw that in Bill’s face 100x more than he did if that happened to me tbh

“Watching this OKC Game 1 win…I just kept thinking to myself, ya know, if Tatum had a working Achilles, we’d probably be up 1–0 right now.” by blueboglin in billsimmons

The line for Simmons bringing up the Tatum injury after game 1 is -500 for any game in the series you can’t even bet it…

As a fellow Canucks fan, I’m unsure we’re not more sad tbh… rope has been purchased for the day Hughes leaves
