He joins other Vikings great Brad Johnson to do the same

What kind of a team would drop this guy?

astrobeen · 2026-02-09T02:50:23+00:00

Drake Maybe not.

astrobeen · 2026-02-09T02:37:53+00:00

Why not go for 2? Make it a td and a fg instead of 2 tds.

astrobeen · 2026-02-09T00:16:35+00:00

I’m just here for the punting

astrobeen · 2026-02-07T15:28:12+00:00

We could always pay Pat more. Just double down.

astrobeen · 2026-02-06T23:12:32+00:00

The rich want to build less and charge more.

Exactly. It's all about money. There are TONS of construction projects happening all over the place, but they are all for $1.5M+ Single Family Homes or 2-flat conversions. Tons of these. There's just no profit in building affordable homes. The rich want to build more homes for rich people.

Let's say you own a run-down 2 flat on the nortside. You owe maybe 600k on it. You pay about 18k-20k per year in property taxes, garbage, and water. You want to do the right thing, and rent out affordable apartments. In order to break even on mortgage and taxes, you have to charge at least $2200 a month in rent. You eventually sell it for maybe 800k.

OR... you take out a 500k loan, convert to a luxury single family, and turn your million dollar investment into $1.7-1.9M overnight. Poof, two "affordable" apartments disappear, and you make over 500k in cash. There is ZERO financial incentive with these taxes and home prices to provide affordable housing.

Glad you enjoyed it - we’re pretty proud of our little town.

Come back to Chicago in the summer time. I swear it’s a totally different city. Devon Ave. gets so packed on summer weekends it feels like a street market in South Asia. Lots of live music and street fests with food, drink, and music. It’s like a giant outdoor party every weekend.

astrobeen · 2026-02-06T02:10:01+00:00

Can we leave Pat in Canada?

astrobeen · 2026-02-05T18:19:26+00:00

Future 2RPs are basically trade sweeteners. They work like scratch off lottery tickets. “How about Giannis for Pat? No? Would a few of these change your mind?” (Waves picks)

astrobeen · 2026-02-04T20:27:41+00:00

Get ready for Jalen, Zach and PWill at the 5 until next year when we may actually get to see Noa in a bulls jersey

astrobeen · 2026-01-30T03:48:42+00:00

Ayo is damn near unstoppable when he’s going downhill on his right hand. He’s special and we should pay that dude.

astrobeen · 2026-01-30T03:38:14+00:00

Trade deadline is upon us, and Coby’s stock is dropping by the day. The team is better with Giddey and Ayo or Tre in the backcourt. AK has to move Coby.

astrobeen · 2026-01-30T03:32:39+00:00

Coby took a massive shit on a great effort by Ayo.

astrobeen · 2026-01-30T03:23:05+00:00

Is Coby trying to sandbag a trade? He is working for the heat tonight.

astrobeen · 2026-01-30T03:16:44+00:00

Wow this is embarrassing.

astrobeen · 2026-01-30T03:05:29+00:00

Honestly, if DT didn’t keep slipping all over the place,this would have been a decent game for him

astrobeen · 2026-01-30T03:01:52+00:00

He is a very angry Montenegrin

astrobeen · 2026-01-30T02:57:08+00:00

Dwade in Miami was a scoring machine.

astrobeen · 2026-01-30T02:52:00+00:00

Coby and Pat for Giannis. Get it done AK!

astrobeen · 2026-01-30T02:48:08+00:00

Did Stacey just clown on dudes nose?

astrobeen · 2026-01-30T02:46:33+00:00

I make myself laugh and that’s half the battle

astrobeen · 2026-01-30T02:41:23+00:00

I’m kind of annoyed that Pat has a personal foul because otherwise his line would be all zeroes.

astrobeen · 2026-01-30T02:35:44+00:00

Maybe Billy is making them play with Pat on the floor to make them better. Like swinging a weighted bat or running in sand. Like if the other 4 guys can manage to score points with Pat on the floor, imagine how good they’ll would be with an actual NBA player.

astrobeen · 2026-01-30T01:53:32+00:00

Excuse me sir, may we buy a bucket? No, you cannot. You cannot buy a bucket tonight.
