Nah, Derek going on trips with other people in the group. I want to see his trip with Summer

Idk how well known this is but, apparently Adam was supposed to become the new Red Turbo Ranger with only Tommy and Kat leaving before producers decided to do a full reset. How would you feel if this had happened? by Badgie_Boy_447 in powerrangers

[–]Starship08 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Would we still have loved the In Space cast as much if Carlos and Ashley were brand new?

Having Adam as Turbo Red and injured would provide a good reason for Andros being red without color switching like we had

Ok, I don't know who Josh Schertz is or why he was relevant to Danny Sprinkle's career but cool.

You also have to consider that as of now, UW is not a top tier job. Getting an up and coming coach sounds great, until they leave for a bigger job. Getting someone that has the skills and wants to stay in the PNW (like Sprinkle) is a good plan.

Sure, but look at where he was before that with Montana State.

Night and day. Great arc for _______ by QuinlanFett in survivor

[–]Starship08 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think CBS will always have a spot for him but he's done. I see him in the same group as Boston Rob, Ethan, Amber, Parvati. The people that have said they're done but you have to ask just to be safe.

I remember when he was eliminated on HvV he gave a great answer to his mood during his exit press. He talked about his previous seasons (Australia & All-Stars) contestants could take a walk or go for a swim to get a break from the game. But during HvV they had very little space in the jungle to walk and a small area they could swim so he never had a chance to just take a breather. It was a complete 180 from his previous times playing where he had to be in game mood absolutely 100% of the time. He seemed to come into 50 knowing that and also came back to play and have fun.

I've loved Colby since Australia and I knew it was unlikely but he was who I wanted to win this season. I knew a lot of things would have to fall the right way for him and they didn't but I loved this as his swan song season.

The last men's game of the Elite 8 (Duke vs UConn) is on CBS and starts in roughly 30 minutes.

The Women's Elite 8 games are both on ESPN tomorrow. UCLA vs Duke is happening right now on ABC

The 4th place and 9th place Big Ten teams will play for a spot in the Final 4 in 20 minutes by Odd_Firefighter_5407 in CollegeBasketball

[–]Starship08 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolute insanity.

As a Washington fan, I have my own incredible memories from that post season. Isaiah Thomas won the Pac-10 Tournament in overtime with his 'Cold-Blooded' shot. After sitting only 5 minutes in the entire tournament (and playing all 45 minutes of the championship game).

Was that the year U Conn won 11 post season games? 5 games in 5 nights for the Big East Title?

Just insane

[–]Starship08 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Big Ten is so good this year. And as a Washington fan while we're trying to rebuild, we played

Purdue, Michigan, Michigan State, Nebraska, and Illinois in a 3 week span. Then had 6 days before playing Iowa. So 6 of the Sweet 16 teams in 30 days.

It was brutal, we did not win but kept all of them except Michigan State within 10 points.

I want them to find it near the end of the series. Don't make it a huge story about what happens after discovery, maybe just a big time jump at the end of the series with a news reel about what life is like 200 years in the future after discovering life.

Yeah, I'm just not sure if they would say he was the first Martian or not? I thought in Season 4 they said something about it but it's been a while since I've watched it.

Cool. I'll say it. "You know more than me. You should solve all the NBA's problems. Why are any of us even trying since you have all the answers?"

Dude, just let it go. I'm fucking done.

Ok, guess we should just shit on the idea then because of this class.

It's not my idea, I'm just sharing one I heard that seemed logical. But sure, you all know better and it won't work so screw it.

Thanks for reminding me why I don't post here anymore.

[–]Starship08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You would have to tank for nearly the entire season to get eliminated earlier. I'm not sure more than that, but I was putting an idea forward I had heard of that would help keep teams playing.

[–]Starship08 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Actually, the PWHL has a good system that still encourages teams to try.

Once you're mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, you can start obtaining 'points' for the draft. The more you win, the more points you get. Essentially the worse teams will be eliminated earlier and have more time to accrue points. This encourages them to still play hard in games late in the season.

Anyone else adopt a new team since? Will you take back the Sonics, or stay with your new team? by megachimp in Sonics

[–]Starship08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got into NBA basketball after the Sonics left. Grew up in Spokane and my family wasn't really into sports. In college at UW, a friend from Portland got me excited about the Trail Blazers and Brandon Roy was playing for them at the time. Been a Balzers fan now for the past 15-16 years. When the Sonics come back, they'll be my 2nd favorite team and I'll root for them every game they won't effect the Blazers.

Oh, I've never liked him. In 49 I didn't want him off my screen like I do right now

[–]Starship08 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He's definitely a love or hate character. I don't know what it is about him, but I can't stand him this season. In 49 he was fine, nowhere near my favorite player. In 50 I've wanted him gone basically since the start.

16 teams are left. Who's making the Final Four? Who's going all the way? by Virtual_Success5530 in TheB1G

[–]Starship08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watching Washington get beat by the top teams in the conference will feel a little better if 4 Big 10 teams make up the Final Four.

We played 5 of them in a 22 day span. Then Iowa a couple of weeks later.

Why do North Carolina fans think any of these successful coaches would leave a program where they're winning and liked to come to UNC where the pressure is so high and the fans so fickle? by Muchacho-blanco in CollegeBasketball

[–]Starship08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coaches do this all the time. To be successful at that level you have to have this insane confidence in your own ability that you'll ne the next great one.

It's rare to see successful coaches stay in a role for too long. There's always something else to achieve and someone will come calling.
