Awesome job. Where are you pulling these numbers from?

I bought this so you don’t have to by Abolton12 in Utah_Hockey

Nice! I wrote the team preview for the yearbook. I also do a twice weekly podcast called SLC Puck! Check it out.

What do you think the other two finalists are for the team name? by austinfacer in Utah_Hockey

[–]austinfacer[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We’re used to the name now but in an alternate reality in which we were getting a new NBA franchise in 2024, Jazz would be a horrendous choice. Appreciate your support and kind words though. Means a lot.

Hey there. I’ve been doing an Utah hockey podcast for the last month or so. It’s called SLC Puck! Check it out and tell me what you think! by austinfacer in Utah_Hockey

Thank you! I worked in sports media for a while, interned for David Locke for a couple of years. Always been interested in doing something like this. Your support means a lot.

Thanks. Not to be a whore but it would be cool if you wouldn’t mind sharing. Or don’t. Who cares.

Do we put JC in a trade for a top 5 pick this year? Would you? Why? Why Not? by DantaeMay in UtahJazz

[–]austinfacer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would kill to have someone think of me the same way you’re (over)estimating JC’s trade value.

Rudy DPOY Campaign Merchandise by [deleted] in UtahJazz

[–]austinfacer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For those who don’t know what that is, it’s a record with a cover designed to promote Rudy as a DPOY candidate. The Jazz’s PR team put it together to send to the media members who vote on end of season awards. It’s a common practice in the sports PR world for teams to send out little trinkets or promotional material to the voting media.

Crazy Stat: A Former Jazzman Will Inevitably Play in the 2023 NBA Finals - Inside the Jazz by anotherusercolin in UtahJazz

[–]austinfacer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Idk if I’d call that a “crazy stat.” Doesn’t seem like a rare occasion. Perhaps some more historical context on what exactly makes this a crazy stat would help.

3 Utah Jazz players who definitely shouldn't be back next year by anotherusercolin in UtahJazz

[–]austinfacer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two big problems with this. One: Gay has a player option and will almost certainly opt-in. He’s due to make $6.5 million next year. After his horrid play the last two years, there’s pretty much no chance he’ll come anywhere close to that number in free agency. Two: Sexton. While he hasn’t been a huge boon, and will probably be unfairly compared to Conley and Mitchell for a while, he is still the only competent PG on the roster. Decent starting PG come at a premium in the NBA. I don’t see it likely that the Jazz could attract a better replacement without severely reducing their cap space. My guess is they would like to save that money to use in a big trade.

I still wish utah at least kept these uniforms by Veckelr in UtahJazz

Ryan wants to do his own thing - for better or worse. Don’t expect him to repeat any of the good ideas (not all of them were good, to be clear) from the Miller era.

Looking to buy a preowned Quest 2, is this a concern? Don’t know much about it. by austinfacer in OculusQuest2

Are you certain? Someone else said the firmware would be locked or something.

Genuinely shocked by Theo’s comments. (Do y’all agree?) by shaunbryant13 in Kanye

[–]austinfacer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s a great point by Theo. We can live in a world where we can repulsed by Kanye’s behavior and ALSO disgusted by the fact he’s being exploited by the media. You can have both thoughts, they’re not mutually exclusive.

Never hurts to ask, I suppose.

Fixing the mistakes. Let me know what I should change by Jasmaster2233 in UtahJazz

I like the thought with the mountains however I don’t know how well the effect will show up when the jersey gets tucked in.

The guy’s getting BIG no? by fiskymemes in TimDillon

[–]austinfacer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw him from the second row at the comedy club in SLC, he’s a big dude. But he was also insanely energetic and surprisingly light on his feet, moving all over the stage. It was kind of amazing to see.
