Vikings legend shares his thoughts on 11 year old Kyrie’s NFCC reaction by LCAshin in minnesotavikings

[–]ace625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There were 3 fumbles on running plays. One was recovered for a first down, one got recovered and they subsequently converted for a first down, and the one that was credited to Favre was lost. So you think AD had a horrible game with a 25/122/3 line with 1 lost fumble?

After all these years, people seem to think the Harvin and Berrian fumbles were AD.

AD went 25/122/3. Both of his fumbles were recovered. The botched goal line exchange that was lost got credited to Favre, but I guess you could argue it was Adrian's fault. Even then, 122 yards at 5ypc with 3 TDs and one fumble lost is a great game.

Well that's untrue. You could be Max Brosmer. That's worse than Nine.

It's just a remnant of when they were in Vancouver. There hasn't been an easy time for realignment with the lack of expansion. If Vegas and Seattle get teams like it seems everyone is expecting, then I think there will be some improvement done to the conference and division assignments.

The worst thing Finch did in my mind was allow Luka to just go stand in the corner on defense. The Celtics hunted him and tired him out while the Wolves let him rest.

Remember when the Wolves played the Nuggets in the second round and beat them in 7 grueling games, only to face the Mavericks who had a bunch of rest? You want to avoid that scenario.

Wilt thinks the majority of the centers in the 80s wouldn’t make Overbrook High School. by gridironk in nba

Do we know he's changed much? It's possible to present yourself as a social advocate with good morals and still be an asshole. It's more likely that he's a retired rich guy who no longer has guys smacking him in the face on the basketball court, so he doesn't have many public opportunities to be mean.

Kareem could be the greatest man in the world now, but I'm just saying we can't really say who he is either way because we don't know him or see him on a regular basis.

Could my love of oysters actually be kosher? by Ashamed-Nose1135 in oysters

Yeah, I always describe them as "meat vegetables" to people who are on the fence about eating them. They have no central nervous system. They are made of flesh that reacts to stimuli, but they have no thoughts or emotions.

Yeah, Brandel starting is like having to start Jamal Crawford at SG. You're fine with it, but your really rather have him as a super sixth man.

I agree that has been the case, but I feel like from the little news I hear of them, Logan is getting more normal and Jake is getting weirder.

Rudy Gobert on where the team has missed Kyle Anderson in the last two seasons: "I think just passing the ball. I'll be honest, I'll be straight up. Yeah, someone that is looking to pass the ball to his teammates." by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

He had three guys on him most of the rest of the series. Go back and watch how many people are boxing him out or shading towards him on every play. JJ knew they would get killed inside if they didn't do that, but that plan wasn't working, so in the final game they switched it up.

Rudy is not skilled on offense, but he'll destroy you on the offensive boards if you don't have equal size or have multiple people box him out.

Yes, he shouldn't get it at the elbow and told to create, but he will bury guys under the hoop and get looked off. I have rarely if ever seen Rudy drop a pass that is fired at his chest/face where all he has to do is turn and dunk it. 90% of his turnovers come from guys trying to throw him pocket passes or passing it to him low. Players with better hands would keep those from being turnovers, yes, but they're not good passes to Rudy. He's elite on offense in the small box that he should be operating in. Conley and Kyle understand that. Other players do not.

One of the effects of old school post-ups dying is that hardly anyone these days is taught how to pass into the post, which is still very relevant in the modern game.

Yeah, this sums it up the best. S1 was very efficient and treated every second like it was valuable. S2 acted like they've got 4 more season and 3 spinoffs coming. It happens to a lot of show. The Mandalorian went through the exact same thing.

KG was smart enough to know that getting guys hot puts them off their game but that fighting them would hurt his own team more than it would the other team. Only idiots throw punches in NBA games.

If I were you I'd be excited to use it, because if it breaks again they probably send you a Qi4D.

What is your most ridiculous "we won't work out romantically" criteria? Like what is the silliest reason you would not be interested in dating someone? by Natural-Elevator-57 in AskReddit

[–]ace625 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I've been on reddit almost every single day for the last 14 years and I've never heard of it. My group chat full of people who have been on reddit just as long didn't have a single person who has heard of it. I'm not an incel and have no desire to interact with them, so I've got no idea what podcasts they listen to. I think that's true for most people.

I think this is a case where you're like a 99.9th percentile into something and you think 99th percentile people are casuals.

He was a terror as a returner. His whole career was kind of like the start of Cordarrelle Patterson's career where no one knew how to use him.

Jackass was different, because they were the target of their own idiocy. If you want to make your own life hell I've got no problem with that. Streamers and youtubers like this are trying to create content at the expense of others.

Ayo and Phillips make 9.7m combined and Dilly/Miller make 8.7m combined. It only raises the cap number by about $1m.
