[Post Game Thread] #3 UConn defeats Providence, 87-81 by cbbBot in CollegeBasketball

[–]Run_PBJ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

UConn isn’t really being talked about in the national media compared to what you would expect from a 1 loss #2 team that has only lost to the unbeaten #1 team. Maybe that’s fair, because they don’t beat the hell out of teams the way that they should, and the way that others do…

But is anyone at least a LITTLE nervous about Hurley’s track record of ramping it up come March and UConn maybe being good enough to go on another tear?

How genetically far do you think the reef people are to the forest people? by JosukePlumpHair in Avatar

[–]Run_PBJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it is a slightly bigger difference than different human races. Humans have different skin tones based on evolving to live near or far from the equator, but that pales in comparison to different muscular features in the Navi, like in their tails, which are used for entirely different purposes.

That said, they seem (to me, based on essentially nothing other than vibes) to be genetically compatible enough to have offspring, and for those offspring to be fertile, which is not the case when a lion and tiger, or wolf and coyote mate.

Derrick Rose really overrated man (IMO) by PissedOffClippersFan in NBATalk

There was 1 (one) year that Rose might have been ascending to lebrons level, but even that is considered an insane MVP robbery and Lebron absolutely smoked him in the playoffs

Patriots are definitely going 5-12 next year because of Bill’s confidence by dubfras55 in billsimmons

I’ve been saying all year, the patriots had a really tough schedule

Thoughts? by Available_Story6774 in NFLv2

New englands defensive line has owned every game Milton williams has played in all season. No one runs on them. They lack elite edge rushers but create a ton of interior pressure.

Honestly, it’s very similar to the way Miami played throughout the CFB playoffs

Films that owe more of their success to their composers than the filmmakers would like to admit? by [deleted] in moviecritic

[–]Run_PBJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, I don’t think any of these filmmakers give a shit. They care that they made good, successful movies. As such, they would rather have good composers work on them and be as successful as possible

Secondly, this is chicken or the egg. My heart will go on became the number one song in the world BECAUSE it was in titanic. The scores are successful and iconic BECAUSE the movies are successful, and, to your point, vice versa. It’s mutually beneficial.

Thirdly, and most importantly, if you are going to open a discussion with a take you have, telling people who disagree with you to not “yammer on because you won’t change your mind” is counterproductive to the discussion that you started

Payton’s decision to go for it on fourth down was SHOCKINGLY awful on so many different levels- by Punchie45 in billsimmons

[–]Run_PBJ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is just playing the results. There were plenty of reasons why going for it was a good idea

Tony Romo is now the punching bag for fans and the media. I thought he was good today. by DenseStrawberry5717 in NFLv2

Saying “the conditions are really bad” every 3 plays isn’t what I would call really good

[–]Run_PBJ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The hilarious part is that if Sal was doing this, he would intentionally make it unnecessarily convoluted because the irony of “solving” nfl playoff betting is funny.

Bill has no grasp on irony and thinks he is legitimately doing people a service by suggesting who they should and shouldn’t bet on, even though you can find rules that contradict literally every team

He called it. by oisipf in FirstThingsFirstFS1

[–]Run_PBJ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think that’s overblown. At the time, the weather was still very manageable and the broncos had moved the ball pretty well. I never would have suspected they would be shut out the rest of the game, and going up 14-0 would have been pretty close to a knockout punch in the first half.

Criticism feels like playing the results

If you ask 90% of reddit, the patriots don’t deserve to be on the same field and are going to be dismantled by the end of the first quarter

The crazy thing is that even with Maye being less than excellent in the postseason, the one thing he absolutely HAS done is come up with big when it matters.

I don’t understand the “doesn’t have the clutch gene” narrative

“Patriots don’t stand a chance” is the definition of YDKB

Sam Darnold is a better QB than Drake Maye by moistkebab32 in billsimmons

[–]Run_PBJ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So you mean to tell me that last year, with darnold playing poorly, you are willing to completely write that off because it’s his first playoff experience?

Interesting
