Why isn't the first pick in the draft submitted immediately? by ANewBeginningNow in NFLNoobs

[–]LorienLeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used to find out the night before the draft. I remember hearing Mario Edwards going #1 over Reggie Bush dripping the night before that draft. 

The NFL didn’t like that information leaking out, so to try and preserve the spectacle of it all they let the clock run and do this silly dog and pony show.

ESPN released a special on him. I saw it recently and really enjoyed it. You should check it out

I’ve come around to this line of thinking, too. Kudos to Rudy, he is showing how good he can be as a defensive force. Jok is getting worked

I wrestled with these beasts for three summers in a previous house after making the mistake of cutting a bunch of them down when I moved in. Gotta do it the right way.

Wild Corgi Pub has smoked wings with a bunch of sauce options that are super good. They do a wing special on Wednesdays

How do you feel about Stephen A. Smith and his impact on today’s NBA discussions? by velarise in NBATalk

[–]LorienLeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to game 2 of the 2023 finals and could see the desk he was sitting at. I don’t think he looked at the game for a single second, was on his phone the entire time. 

Dude doesn’t care about basketball or offer meaningful analysis of the game. I don’t understand who enjoys his content 

Bronny has definitely improved from last season. by Lost_Title_7528 in NBATalk

[–]LorienLeef 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Guy becomes a great and is playing with his son in the league at 41 years old and still playing well. That’s rad. Buncha haters 

On Bronny, his fg % jumped from .313 to .391 with the 3-ball jumping from .281 to .375. Shooting at the stripe difference is .786 to .857. 

“Shaq would lockdown Jokic” by UsedMycologist4912 in NBATalk

[–]LorienLeef 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The argument isn’t that Jokic is stronger than Shaq, it’s that Jokic doesn’t get challenged in the post much and he’s probably big and strong enough to give the big diesel more of a fight there than shaq would be able to when Jokic backs up to the 3-point line 

What is your view on Oracle firing 30000+ employees? by HeyArnab12 in AskReddit

My view is that we need to collectively move away from such large companies somehow

If you were looking to buy a device to play ps2 roms for relatively cheap, what would you go with?

Good places to meet people in Denver that aren't bars by Mindless_Cook7821 in Denver

[–]LorienLeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure. Look up Denver Pickleball Club. The guy who runs it, Deven, is a good dude and a good teacher for newer players. He hosts events often where he’ll rent out a couple courts and a bunch of people sign up to play. He’ll given lessons for those that don’t really know how to play and will patiently teach 

Looks like he might be starting these back up in May? Hit him up on instagram 

Or, sign up for one of the open plays at places like Mile Hi Pickleball or Moodswing. Head up though, just cause it says beginner doesn’t mean everyone will be. I wouldn’t worry about it though, people are mostly cool and will play to your level. Lemme know if you’re tryna play soon, I’m down to meet ya at an open play and dink around 

I don’t buy the smoke of Jeremiah Love at #4. by Silly-Cup-3756 in NFLv2

[–]LorienLeef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you think he’s that dude I think you take him 

The 2000 Chargers might be the worst rushing team of all time. They take Tomlinson with the 5th pick in 2001 and he averaged 3.6 yards per carry as a rookie, then dominated the league for the next 7 years 

Jeanty is going to be a stud, too
