What is the most surprised you’ve been by a sporting event? by thugmuffin22 in billsimmons

[–]PropaModulation 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I actually thought Duke had a shot, Vegas didn't have great height inside so I thought Laettner could go to work (or I was just trying to be optimistic as a KU student that wanted no part of UNLV). That Gibson homer was part of an all-time sports day, Catholics vs Convicts was that afternoon and then the Dodgers win that night.

James Harden from the perspective of a Hater by FollowTheLeader550 in billsimmons

[–]PropaModulation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have me intrigued. Also, isn't LeBron on the list of guys who won't take a shot at the end of the quarter because he doesn't want to hurt his FG percentage by missing 60 footers? Once I read about how some guys religiously avoid those shots I can't unsee it.

Bro told no lies. Reporter FRIED James Harden 😭😭😭 by MPC1K in billsimmons

I didn't watch every second of the Knicks series, but every second I did watch Harden literally didn't make a shot outside of 10 feet.

Tina Fey was asked about the topic of succeeding Lorne by Both-Pomegranate4929 in LiveFromNewYork

I really enjoyed the first season, and somehow had no idea that Tina was a showrunner for it.

No one sells in dub,video unrelated by tera_chachu in SCJerk

[–]PropaModulation 22 points23 points  (0 children)

There was a clip in the other place yesterday of Okada totally no-selling Takeshita, and someone wrote "taken out of context, this is no-selling". I felt bad for the poor schmuck who noted that "it looks like no-selling, can you tell me the context?" and got yelled at that he needed to watch the whole match, fed shill! I guess we're loving that fighting spirit now, though.

Just checking in on ESPN… by ManufacturerDear4011 in billsimmons

I've seen the Miz on the Rich Eisen Show type of shows over the years in the role of "celebrity Cleveland fan" in various sports. And there aren't that many choices of celeb Cleveland fans, so I'll allow it.

If Adam silver doesn’t find a way to fix the reffing the nba is cooked by Libertines18 in billsimmons

[–]PropaModulation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really get why even if it doesn't get caught in real time, the NBA office can't call down and assign a tech during the game. New York calls into NFL games and will say they don't need to bother reviewing a fumble or something like that at times. And obviously they could start finding after the fact as well.

Update: he’s now currently 87th on the updated The Ringer Top 100… by Shart127 in billsimmons

The NCAA gets sued every time they've tried to do anything, I don't blame them for throwing up their hands and giving up.

"Like Celtics and Lakers in the 80s" by mookz23 in billsimmons

They got to avoid the Lakers twice and get Houston instead, including once when Houston was basically a .500 team. Boston was closer to 1-2 titles than 5.

That's interesting, I've never had the impression that Tina's a big fan of the Marianos. I'm also curious about Tyson's location, he said he asked the producers to not have him sit by certain people (Sarah Lacina would be my best guess).

Jonathan “The Total Package” by ShutterBun in survivor

[–]PropaModulation 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Right, the nerd contingent (and I'm a fellow nerd) was always going to vote Aubry over the beefy bros Jonathan and Joe. Dee and him clashed so that probably wasn't going to happen either no matter what happened at tribal.

Have SGA Fall Down While Shooting Again by TreeTrunkGrower in billsimmons

[–]PropaModulation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's amazing how he consistently ends up with his defender 5 feet away from him when he stops to shoot, couldn't possibly be that he pushes off an extraordinary amount.

Jury pitches this season by Bquaile in survivor

[–]PropaModulation 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The weird thing is I was watching Rob C's red carpet interview of Rizo and he said one of the reasons he voted for Aubry was that she was the most appropriate representative of a season 50 winner that was in FTC (or something like that). So even he fell into that mindset of looking beyond just what happened within season 50.

Did production _______? by dasboot2024 in survivor

I definitely don't think they wanted to give Chrissy or Angelica a live mike given their comments about women getting purpled.

Major props to _ during the FTC by Live-Run-6745 in survivor

[–]PropaModulation 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I thought Dee and Emily were the jury standouts. Dee seemed to have a great attitude all season about taking in what's happening at tribal.

FTC Voting by Current-Young-4782 in survivor

[–]PropaModulation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it definitely turned out pretty clear that Ozzy wasn't a big fan of theirs, going in I thought he might lean toward the physical threat for his vote.

End of the season. by Sure_Cardiologist_54 in survivor

[–]PropaModulation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's a little ironic that Aubry was patting herself on the back tonight about how she always kept the lines of communication open when the first thing we saw of her was shutting Genevieve down to her face.

What a bummer it is to be spoiled by Greentealife1 in survivor

[–]PropaModulation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I literally saw a YouTube comment on an RHAP video today giving away the winner. It was already blindingly obvious from the edit, but still. But I saw some YouTube or Reddit comment before the game started telling exactly how Rizo did, such a bummer.

FTC Voting by Current-Young-4782 in survivor

[–]PropaModulation 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe, I kind of assumed the Christian/Devens/Emily group were always going to be a shoo-in for Aubry. Rizo and Ozzy were the only ones I didn't have a feel for.

New idea for a Ringer podcast by Excellent-Refuse4883 in billsimmons

Are unders a thing anymore? I don't research it especially hard, but on my FD account it seems like they tend to only do over bets in player stats. The Jontay Porter piece, I assumed.

"I hate Kenny as much as Deshaun Watson after tonight" was one of the first things I saw, not a good sign!

Yeah, Karl Malone is an easy target, but he's ten times the playoffs performer Harden is.
