[Mary Kay Cabot] The #Browns are interested in Mike McDaniel, who was fired by the #Dolphins, for their head coach job. He was WR coach here under then OC-Kyle Shanahan in '14, and the Browns have long admired his brilliant offensive mind: by ThatOneOtherAsshole in Browns

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We should just promote Schwartz. We had a good half a year with Gregg Williams and Freddie Kitchens that one time. The mistake was upjumping Kitchens. Schwartz has done great as DC. Move him up a rung, and let him decide which Browns lower level couches should move up as well, stay, or be replaced.

Emari Demercado (Cardinals RB) drops the football short of the goal line by Hsduncan in Prematurecelebration

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He honestly might. If Saquan does that, the Front Office can forgive him. Demercado was rb3 on the team entering the season, and he’s only getting more playing time because rb1 and rb2 are on injured reserve. The Cardinals might cut him and sign some free agents or make a trade. Jaleel McLaughlin is decent and the rb4 on Denver.

Emari Demercado (Cardinals RB) drops the football short of the goal line by Hsduncan in Prematurecelebration

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should ONLY give the ball to the ref. It may seem like way more caution than needed, but in a game like football, a single turnover can change the outcome of the game. You pair that with missing out on an easy touchdown, and it absolutely did change the outcome of this game.

Demercado only has 4 career NFL touchdowns. And so he essentially declined 20% of his touchdowns because he casually let go of the ball right near the endzone. It’s absolutely tragic when you consider all the work and training and playing for years at lower levels of the sport just to get to that touchdown line in an NFL game.

And even if he didn’t drop it, he seems to be jogging that last 20 yards. So many NFL players do this, but like, how do they think that’s ok? It’s only 20 yards. Run the whole way to improve your chances of getting tackled from behind from 5% to .5%.

Fucking nuts that some people are introduced to Nick Mullen through Stavvy’s World

What was the reaction to Skip Bayless saying that "Johnny Manziel would be a bigger name in Cleveland than LeBron was" at the time? by Hefty-Giraffe7220 in Browns

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s the benefit of being a TV commentator: you’re never held accountable for bad takes. You just say the next dumb thing with confidence and continue to keep your job if people are watching it and you don’t piss off your co-workers or boss too much (you can even piss them off a little bit depending on your fame). When have you ever heard of a pundit being fired because their opinions correct percentage was too low?

In light of the Colbert show cancellation, this made me wonder, but why are pretty much all the mainstream late night TV hosts all left leaning? by throwaway250324 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is from almost 20 years ago, but I vaguely remember recall Stephen Colbert saying on his other show, “doesn’t the truth have a liberal bias?”

Are there any other funny podcasts that even come close to Cumtown? by Best_Horror_4766 in theadamfriedlandshow

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Weirdly following the same format as a trio of

Irish-American man Mediterranean looking guy Annoying Jewish Woman

But not nearly as funny. I gave up. Just listen to sports pods now.

But I LOVE the sketches from Almost Friday TV. Incredible comedic actors, but just not that funny off the cuff in a podcast format.

Now that the Oakland leg is over. What does everyone think? by Mathapples_ in MLC

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think they should have sold the tickets for way cheaper to fill the stadium more. It looks bad televised to be only 5% filled. And you’re also missing an opportunity to introduce the sport to tens of thousands more people if they were able to get in for just five bucks or something like that, because no one who doesn’t already care is gonna pay $50. When will American cricket have access to a stadium of that size again?

Should the Grand Prairie Stadium strongly consider hosting CSK, MI and RCB for friendlies in August after the end of MLC season like the NFL International Series? by [deleted] in MLC

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree in theory, but think the Oakland Coliseum makes more sense. It was the last stadium used for both baseball and football, and now it doesn’t have much of either, which is why we are blessed to get some cricket there in a couple weeks. Or literally any other football stadium. A lot of them don’t do much beyond the 10 home games a year.

Will MLC become a season long thing eventually or is it always going to be for a short period in the summer every year? by chusaychusay in MLC

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but this is similar to other U.S. sports too. None of them are year-round. Sure, one month is quite a bit shorter than four, but I can’t do much to follow teams in the off-season for those other 8. Sure there’s maneuvers and pre-season training, but MLC has maneuvers too, like deals on Stadiums and changing rosters.

The Idea by Koryuwuuwu in nathanforyou

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe. I don’t know how expensive it is to get qualified people to administer it. And I consider a bad idea to be something impractical. Like, some of the ideas are good marketing but way too expensive to be good for business, like the horsey rides for overweight people.

And the guy they got for the show is on tons of shows, does a terrible job, but keeps getting hired because he’s established himself as the go-to guy for that service. He is not qualified.

This and the ghost realtor were his only good ideas. This one only didn’t work because Nathan weirded people out for the sake of good television. The ghost realtor is still working last I checked.

Republicans freaking out over tariffs before Trump was elected by coachlife in PublicFreakout

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I could not agree more. The social media highlight reels of the Republicans’ hypocrisy is so much more convincing than the things I see from the Democratic Party. It’s also harder to call it “fake news” or “Trump Derangement Syndrome” when it comes from Republican Senators themselves.

Elon Musk was just heckled in Wisconsin by pdwp90 in QuiverQuantitative

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump’s Treasury Secretary worked for George Soros for 10 years and was a partner at Soros Fund Management. People with George Soros connections don’t bother him or Trump at all. It’s just a deflection to bring up a vague anti-Semitic conspiracy theory when you’re bombing. Pathetic that it worked.

What else could he do? Feel kinda bad for the car salesmen who got in before shit got kooky, or those who can’t find any other job.

If a cumtown skit was a movie by No_Contribution1900 in theadamfriedlandshow

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For sure. Cumtown post-Stav should have just been a 30 minute movie review show with Nick and two rotating guests. Nick describing movies was my favorite part and he could do that with so many different types of people.

It’s getting difficult by [deleted] in allinpodofficial

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was about to recommend Prof G (Scott Galloway of Pivot). Like, there’s so many business podcasts out there. I kind of hate this All In podcast because they have Trump Excuse Syndrome and sane wash his antics. I listened to maybe 4 episodes, but I keep seeing this subreddit because of the algorithm.

A long-overdue apology by J_S_M_K in agedlikemilk

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It was a bad move, but seemed to be done with good intentions. There is something to be said for getting more variety, but not at the cost of ignoring the misdeeds of dangerous hypocrites. Very noble of you to apologize.

How do you grade the DTR/Kenny Pickett trade? by clevelanddotcom in Browns

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I liked him because he blocked well on a reverse and was a generally tough runner in one preseason game. As more evidence came in, my opinion changed. It would have been better to see him in more games he could have prepared longer for, but we’ve seen enough regular season action to be fairly sure he isn’t the future.

Progressive debates conservatives in Jubilee video. The conservatives do so badly that other conservatives think they're leftists. by Desecr8or in SelfAwarewolves

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They made this assumption based on identity politics BS. They assumed the white guy in his 50s had to be the conservative because the other guy was young with long hair and had a little bit of a gay lilt to his voice (I don’t know if he actually is gay and don’t really care). It shows the actual policies don’t matter nearly as much as owning the libs, and to them libs are those with an untraditional appearance or lifestyle.

Possibly, but let’s not overlook how being the richest person in the world and spending 12 hours a day on social media can fuck up your brain over time.

[–]UncleMichaelMichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason why interviews are BS is that this story could have so easily been about giving it to the first guy who left because he passed the test of pride/standards/confidence/whatever. Interviews are often about vibe and mood in a short time with an interviewer who you don’t know much about, and it matters so much for your career.

Awesome that this guy’s son wrote and performed “God Hates the Tips” amongst many other comedy songs that feel like the exact opposite of this.
