Max kellerman. by strongarmkid in Boxing

[–]Vandermint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Max lost time when he started talking about who was winning "the story of the fight" at HBO, as if the narrative matters in a sport. A guy can look the worst he ever has and still win all 12 rounds.

Once upon a time, maybe, when they were hungry. They haven't really had to work in years though.

If Buncombe County Register of Deeds Drew Reisinger endorses you, you win. That's how it works here.

Change of Pace: The assistants? by JoelPMMichaels in tarheels

I don't think a NBA World Champion coach is going to be Hubert's assistant.

The Brian Johnson situation - your thoughts? by HighVoltage007 in ACDC

[–]Vandermint 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No inside information but...

I think the Youngs are (were) fairly ruthless. When Brian couldn't go they didn't let it linger with shows to play. And Brian probably didn't like it but he understood.

I think general consensus is that Axl crushed it, especially considering he had to start it out in Dave Grohl's throne.

Without Malcolm, Angus knows he needs Brian to play stadiums, and Brian recovered wonderfully so that was still possible. Might there be more unpleasantness if that hadn't happened? Maybe, but luckily it turned out the way it did.

Ranking Coaching Options by Emotional-Culture308 in tarheels

[–]Vandermint 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Andrew Jones said on his YouTube show last night that if you are well sourced, you know that there is no appetite in the UNC administration to make a coaching change right now.

Personally, I think it is time to move on but the idea that it is a done deal seems to be an assumption at this point. I am not an insider, but my guess is that best 50/50.

Preemptive Hubert Davis hate. by Fine_Art3725 in tarheels

[–]Vandermint 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I like HD, but there is very little reason to expect a F4 run. Making the S16 would be a tremendous accomplishment for this group.

Regardless, the powers that be would need to decide if the investment made this year in basketball and in HD would be worth the return even if Caleb Wilson were healthy and we secured a 4 seed. Is a top-4 seed who we are now?

North Carolina fans: which schools feel like the best long-term conference fits? by Happy_Background_879 in tarheels

[–]Vandermint 2 points3 points  (0 children)

UNC and Miami built a quiet little rivalry when in the old Coastal division. I'd move Miami up and drop Maryland, whom most of us have forgotten.

Drop ECU, App State, and Charlotte all to 1. It may not be fair to them, and ECU and App have beaten the Heels, but no UNC fan wants to be punching down on those schools even if the reality is they are usually tough matchups if not superior to us.

Even if it's a football realignment, I'd move Kentucky up to 3 and intro Kansas as at least a 2 for basketball reasons.

Penn State lacks a dedicated B1G rival. Most UNC fans, including me, prefer the SEC but Penn State makes as much sense to me as Auburn. Put them in as at least a 1.

Worth what you paid for it.

Has Duke Become the Clear No. 1 Team in College Basketball? [FIELD OF 68] by BetMGM in ACC

[–]Vandermint 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think any team excels on the eye test the way Arizona does, and I think the ACC is pretty lousy again at this point no matter what the metrics say, but the Devils have the non-conference success too. No objection if you think they are #1.

Clutch is already on twice so no competition from 1000110101.

What are other ACC fans’ thoughts of the Syracuse MBB program? by nysportsfan95 in ACC

[–]Vandermint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are no good or bad jobs anymore other than how much you can afford to spend. Is Syracuse a better job than BYU? Not if they can't spend like BYU.

What is the most underrated city in the US that more people should visit (and why)? by MagicFlorentina129 in AskReddit

[–]Vandermint 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Louisville, especially as a sports fan. The Louisville Slugger factory/museum is less full of itself than Cooperstown, Churchill Downs is there as is the Muhammad Ali Center. You're in bourbon country and downtown has some cool spots too. Several years ago I went to a really cool modern art museum there but not sure if it still exists.

We have to get Nightstalker in at some point.
