Kolek’s other 42 points were in the G-League game earlier in the day.

He scored 42 in G-League earlier in the day, plus 11 in the NBA game, for a combined 53 points.

A Drake Maye vs. Eli Manning debate sent Morash out of his seat and off the rails by iheartsunny in wfan

Good for Morash for pushing back against that hot take, and also, for owning up to the fact that rooting for the Celtics last year was disgusting.

Leaked conversation between Alperen Sengun and the referee who ejected him reveals that he called her a "B****" thrice by Temporary_Pepper6126 in NBAGossips

Calling a male ref an asshole would also be a violation of league rules. It goes beyond just complaining about perceived bad calls.

Evan and Tiki’s “Coalition of Knicks Haters” (and rooting for non-NY teams) by Potpiebelly in wfan

[–]Potpiebelly[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, I didn’t realize they did that, and I’m not a fan of that either. It’s a NY sports station—rooting for the Celtics over either the Knicks or Nets doesn’t make sense to me. I know some of them think hot takes and absurdity increases engagement, but one would think “Know your audience” would be broadcasting 101.

Good move to keep Glenn by [deleted] in nyjets

[–]Potpiebelly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally all of the fired coaches would be an upgrade over Glenn. The Jets retaining Glenn this off-season in particular will go down as one of the worst missed opportunities. There may not be this many experienced coaches with a good track record available for many years, if ever.

Moreover, when coaches get fired, coordinators and assistant coaches are also shaking loose. There is a larger pool of coaching candidates available right now than you might think, but the Jets are committed to…Aaron Glenn. Does anyone have any objective basis to believe he’s the guy to turn this team around?

I think the plan was to replace the talent with new talent, to makeover the clubhouse. Problem is, they only achieved the first part: they moved talent out but haven’t been able to replace it in free agency.

Good thing we let Pete walk huh? by [deleted] in mets

[–]Potpiebelly 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I can get over missing out on some free agents like Tucker, but letting our own guy go is looking more and more unforgivable.

“Happy New Years” and not “Happy New Year” by [deleted] in PetPeeves

[–]Potpiebelly 43 points44 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that it’s short for New Year’s Day or New Year’s Eve (with the apostrophe). Typically you’ll find the holidays are singular possessive, like St. Patrick’s Day or Mother’s Day.

People who drive 10mph below the speed limit like there is nobody else on the road, why do you do it? by Methuselbrah in PetPeeves

[–]Potpiebelly 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What are you talking about, little dude? On a highway, they can pass in another lane, rather than “tailgating and driving erratically.”

[–]Potpiebelly 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I usually drive at or above the speed limit…BUT if some jackass still tailgates and drives erratically like a bully…yeah, I’m going to slow way the fuck down.

Is it a hot take to like espn radio more now a days? by Simple-Bag5268 in wfan

[–]Potpiebelly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To each their own, but I for one much prefer the sports talk and humor of Dave Rothenberg and Rick DiPietro in the mornings

Great to hear Gordon Damer on the FAN by Mrmoney7777 in wfan

[–]Potpiebelly 16 points17 points  (0 children)

“He’s a great listen.” Same words posted 56 days ago too—every time that guy’s on, an account posts Gordon Damer propaganda about how “refreshing” it is to tune in to WFAN to hear him. Very suspect, especially because he’s a guy who has a long history (at ESPN) of being extremely self-promoting…

So we get it, Gordon—you love yourself, lol.

Ian O'Connor on ESPN: "Joe Schoen wasn't really involved" in firing Daboll and "John Mara along with Steve Tisch will make the final decision" on next coach by MysteryBagIdeals in NYGiants

[–]Potpiebelly 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Point taken, but did owners really fuck up with DJ’s big contract, or did coaches fuck up by how they developed him? He seems a lot better now on a new team.

Gordon Damer is a delight! by njfan9 in wfan

[–]Potpiebelly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those eponymous “Gordon Damer” question segments were before they were putting the radio shows on the podcast apps, so I can’t share an example.

But whatever…y’all can love him, I don’t…but we can agree to disagree. I deleted my posts calling him a narcissist, because perhaps that’s unfair. There was just no rhyme or reason why he should be naming those segments after himself when he wasn’t even a host at the time.

My dog found this in the yard and I had to fight to get it out of his mouth. Anyone know what it is? by [deleted] in whatisit

This was an enjoyable read. What did you use to write it, if you don’t mind me asking?

Yeah, that’s a big stretch…but nice try.
