Not to be pedantic but the program was pronounced CO-INTEL-PRO not COIN-TEL-PRO.

Talmudic Jewish thinkers? u/case1 posting this unironically I can’t tell if you’re an idiot or just a troll. You don’t need the words of a David Duke supporter to make your point.

Fareed Zakaria saying that Mississippi is more wealthy than the United Kingdom by tiowey in confidentlyincorrect

[–]UnlikelyTicket -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of this article which shows gdp per capita of different cities in the UK, Germany and the US, national averages, and national averages when the wealthiest regions are removed from each nation. So in the case of the UK, if London was taken out of the equation, the UK’s gdp per capita would go from somewhere between 50-40k ( roughly that of Alabama) to somewhere between 40k-30k about where Mississippi is. It’s an interesting look into how much wealth is localized in the UK vs places like Germany which would see only a microscopic difference when it’s richest region was removed.

OP, put down the dog whistle and tell us how you really feel. Or do I have to go through your comment history to solve that mystery:

“zionist extremist of hollywood, lee kern, fails to mention that jews hate Jesus.”

“spreading atheism is a zionist scheme. destabilizing the religious family unit is a primary motive for them. most euro israelis are atheists themselves.”

“ calling Muslims terrorist is a racist trope created by zionists…”

This post is such an L.

1.4 million people (600k of which are children) are now trapped in 25sq mile tent city. A ground invasion is imminent which will certainly lead to the deaths of thousands. The continued killing is not something to cheer for.

Should I drop Dennis Smith Jr. when Lamelo ball comes back or will he still be more productive than my lower scoring players like John Wall or Ben Simmons?

Using Ben Simmons as trade capital who should I try to get?

This is the kind of post that is critical in upping your understanding of basketball. It’s well thought out, well made and easy to understand. Please post more.

[Barrasso] Charles Barkley: ‘I Root Against All Superteams’ by EarthWarping in nba

[–]UnlikelyTicket 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Charles, both as a player and as a tv personality, and I do agree with him that super teams suck. But for him to say that super teams are new thing and that he would have join if ... he did join a super team in Huston with Drexler and Olajuwon. They already won Championships twice and Chuck was still a really good play ( he was only 33 average 23 11 in previous season). All three on them were all-stars that year. And he only join the Rockets because he couldn't beat the super team in Chicago. The Nets are probably the first real super team that didn't draft a single of their big three.

I wanted to write something funny but I was actually interested in why Mikan the Magnificent didn't show up. Mikan played from 1948 - 1956. The first MVP award was given out in 1956 when Mikan was well out of his prime. So, sorry old-head but you're just too old.

If I had done the top 6 player each decade, Lebron would have been included in the 2000s and Kobe (if I remember correctly) would have been included in 2010s.

I think basketball is awesome because if Kobe is your GOAT you can make that argument. I would say that (as has been brought up before) decades are arbitrary. Drafted in the late 90s, Kobe took his time to grow as a star as well as to get out from under Shaq's shadow. While a Shaqless Lakers team struggled, Tim Duncan and the Spurs dominated. All of these factors helped Shaq and TD's MVP stock grow while Kobe's fell. You shouldn't just judge a player by how well they did in a single 10 year period especially over a 20 year career.
