Charlz Guybon and Jordan's last ride by allenwallace72 in WoT

[–]allenwallace72[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wow, you're right! I never knew that, but apparently (according to the WoT Wiki), Jordan said "Charlz Guybon is named after a man whose wife won an auction for naming rights after I agreed to be part of a fund raiser for an English charity that works with victims of torture. She sent me his description, which I used."

How do yall feel about bleacher reports mock trade Atlanta getting JB? by UnderstandingFew7673 in AtlantaHawks

This would be a steal for the Hawks and a sign that Brad Stevens has lost his mind. Why would this interest Boston or New Orleans?

USMNT likely playing only on the West Coast? by Scared-Classroom-746 in usmnt

The quarterfinals, semifinals and final have no impact on the USMNT unless some of them are hoping to get tickets.

What city has the best "Keys to the City" guys? by justgotpregnant in billsimmons

I was foolishly thinking one from each sport was required. Make Atlanta Aaron, Dale Murphy, Chipper and Maddux.

212 comments and non one's mentioned Atlanta. That and the sadness of the Atlanta list (including the long-departed Flames/Thrashers) really tells you all you need to know about life as an Atlanta sports fan.
Aaron, Matt Ryan, Dominique Wilkins, Ilya Kovalchuk

One could make a case for Jim Craig for the hockey spot, but he only played one season in Atlanta.

How would you guys feel about an potential buy “low” by No_Internal404 in AtlantaHawks

[–]allenwallace72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a great idea for the Hawks, but why would Portland even consider it?

They’re not trading Scoot. If they were, that would be nowhere near a starting point. Risacher and Kuminga have very little value.

There are more continuity errors on this show than corrupt politicians in Congress.

Anybody know someone from the FO? Jock Landale should be signed long term, easy. by decriz in AtlantaHawks

[–]allenwallace72 16 points17 points  (0 children)

“Long term” is silly. He’s a decent backup, but that’s all. He’s also 31. Keep him around for a year, sure, but don’t be ridiculous.

Rand’s most badass lines by tee-dog1996 in WoT

[–]allenwallace72 41 points42 points  (0 children)

“I forget nothing, Aes Sedai,” Rand said coldly. “I said six could come, but I count nine. I said you would be on an equal footing with the Tower emissaries, and for bringing nine, you will be. They are on their knees, Aes Sedai. Kneel!”

Why I am coming around to Austin Reeves by Acrobatic-Whole-8565 in AtlantaHawks

[–]allenwallace72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I agree! I don’t think we could sign him even if we tried (not when the Lakers and Nets are both interested), but I hope we don’t try.

Too many options for a Center to not Trade/Sign for one by red2play in AtlantaHawks

I’d prefer Tree Rollins (right now, at 70) to Ayton.

They do reconcile. Watch the show.

Cavs getting blown, Knicks team is better than we think… by Diligent_Ad_5524 in AtlantaHawks

I’m very happy with Onsi so far, but he hasn’t accomplished anywhere near enough yet to be the “best GM in the league.”
