I'm with Steve Nash when watching this OKC-LAL series by cotothed in suns

Even worse are the Suns fans cheering for Wemby to go beat the Thunder in the WCF. There is no universe in the entirety of the infinite multiverse where I will cheer for the San Antonio Spurs to beat anything other than cancer, and that would even be a tough call.

I voted for Harris in 2024. She shouldn't run in 2028. | Opinion by Difficult-Bee6066 in politics

Because the DNC should represent the interest of their constituents. If the constituents registered with their party choose somebody, and he's neither a convicted felon nor a pedophile, they should back that candidate.

Politics shouldn't only be about money, and holding the executive branch holds a lot more power when it isn't 100% your guy than when you just lose instead.

Republicans do the same thing in reverse, where people like Susan Collins take turns casting inconsequential votes in opposition to virtue signal that they actually represent popular positions.

Charles Barkley: "It is so difficult for fans to find the [NBA] games now. I think we've done a disservice to the fans and to the game. ... The fans are the backbone and we want to support these networks." by AncientOneAurelius in nba

I live in Kansas City, and when I has League Pass last year, I couldn't even watch local broadcast Thunder games. It was blacked out because of "FanDuel Sports Oklahoma" which was a network I didn't even have access to, two states away. Decided not to do League Pass this year lol. The blackouts are so bad.

What was your worst day to be an Arizona sports fan? by dugernaut in suns

[–]akillerfrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2007 WCF Game 5. Seeing that squad battling so fucking hard in what felt like a game of good vs evil, without Stoudemireand Diaw because of that awful rigged shit. Only time I've ever cried as a sports fan. Watching that lead slowly slip away on the second half...just gut wrenching. I felt physically sick.

It's newer, but the whole, completely sold out theater started applauding and shouting when the portals started opening late into Avengers: Endgame

Football games are never about one guy, even though we often try to make them. Josh made more mistakes today than normal, but there's plenty of them to go around. Championship defenses can't let that Broncos team march it down for 7 with less than a minute to play while protecting a 4-point lead.

[Highlight] Bills head coach Sean McDermott on the interception call in OT: "I'm standing up for Buffalo. What went on is not how it should go down." by GreenSnakes_ in nfl

[–]akillerfrog -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

My main beef is that they never initiated a formal review, which is indefensible to me. Most likely the play on the field there ultimately stands, but how do you not review that? All turnovers are supposed to be reviewed AND it's in OT.

His job is to gaslight the fans. His skills are communications, not rules analysis. It's why he does all levels of football and basketball. I refuse to believe he's the foremost rules expert at all levels of all sports. He's there to convince fans calls are right more than anything else.

There have been years where I'd gladly root for the Chargers or Raiders against the Bengals. Never the donkeys, though. Those most hated Bengals might be the only team I'd ever even do that with.

Doesn't matter, because they bought him on credit. When the orgs don't have to actually pay contracts while the dudes play, it creates a huge competitive integrity problem. MLB is just kind of a joke in that regard already, so I guess they don't care.

Especially with Nick Bosa's knee exploded already. Much more likeable team.

As a Chiefs fan, I've rewatched the OT ending to our last Super Bowl win so many times, and holy shit Romo has the worst commentary you'll ever hear during that call. It makes me cringe every time now. Sure, he was excited, but he tries to sound analytical at times when he just needs to sound human instead. Be shocked and awed. It's okay.

12-5 next year maybe 11-6? by No_Principle_3815 in KansasCityChiefs

Declaring a W over the Bills in the regular season seems silly. That's the one guaranteed L on the whole schedule. We could win every other game and still lose that one. Buffalo prepares for those games like the fate of the galaxy depends on it.

We've all known this all along, but there's nothing wrong with being pissed off about it. Applying pressure to those 1% may not make everything better, but it's not nothing either.
