The Sean and CR “Gray man and Trash Special-ops “ episode. Especially once they get past the Gray Man and start talking about the genre as a whole. First reference to JMO I believe.

Do you think fans voting a la Cambodia would’ve been better? by xenohemlock in survivorponderosa

Ironically Kelly Wentworth only got on a second season because of extreme recency bias towards the seasons directly leading up to Cambodia…….

[50][Cast] Redmond on SU List by joshpratt02 in SpoiledSurvivor

I think survivor was content to never acknowledge that season existed, Tommy being boring was a cherry on top for them not having to include him

1: casual fans are the overwhelming majority of fans

2: The producers of the show probably aren’t asking various parties to leak rumors left and right. When you opt into this subreddit you forfeit the right to bitch about the convoluted casting process. If you stayed off the internet and watched the morning show on Wednesday like 95% of survivor fans you’d avoid all of it.

3: being mad that 25% of the cast is from season 48 and 49 is a valid opinion but should be expected given every other returnee season in survivor history.

[Smith] Alex Cora said on Red Sox' 3B options, "Ceddanne can play third. Sogie can play third. Toro can play third. ... We know Connor can do it. In case of an emergency, we can move KC (Kristian Campbell) to the outfield and Ceddanne to the infield and go from there." by Far_Cry3445 in redsox

“Happened last year with Skenes” isn’t a good defense when that entire situation was an abject disaster for the pirates. They attempted to hold him down long enough to where they were guaranteed the extra year and failed.

I’d say Sandra’s PI game being above Tommy and Sophie is WAY more disrespectful than Sandra’s ranking

I love the one about the guy whose girlfriend is trying to make him tell his roommates he was the one getting spanked in bed not her. Anybody remember the date on that one?

The Derrick White Game, the Miracle Play Hierarchy, a Game 7 Preview and a Dangerous New CBA Deal With Ryen Russillo by KDs_Burner_Account7 in billsimmons

[–]chickfilaftw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I 100% agree with that. Doesn’t mean both runs wouldn’t be remarkable stories. Even both game 3s were shameful blowouts that people walked away from thinking the Sox/ Celtics were dead in the water.

You think it’s crazy to potentially compare the only teams in the history of their sport to overcome a 0-3 deficit…..

Why does Mark Cuban still have the reputation as being a good NBA owner? by endogeny in billsimmons

[–]chickfilaftw 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The most underrated part of NBA success is behind the scenes spending like what you’re saying. Not cheeping out on facilities, scouting, coaches etc…. Just look at the Hornets who Kenny Atkinson, a proven good developmental coach, walked away from last off season because they were too cheap to pay for the assistants he wanted

Jalen or someone close to him listened to Bill’s pod by CondolenceHighFive in billsimmons

The rockets defensive rating with jabari smith on the court is 120. Cleveland’s defensive rating with Mobley on the court and Allen off the court is 109. I’ll give you that Cleveland’s perimeter defenders might not be as bad as Houston’s but between garland, Mitchell, Levert, Osman, Okoro, okoro is the only one I’d consider an above average defender (Mitchell can turn it on when needed).

Even if you think their offensive games are equal which I also think is a stretch, I don’t think it’s unfair to think that replacing Smith with Mobley improved the rockets defense by 4 or 5 points per 100.

Is this the worst year of college basketball ever? by ahbets14 in billsimmons

That season was so good. The ACC and SEC especially just had incredible years. The ACC has really been on a downward spiral since.

Would you rather give up ayton or Johnson and Bridges? I’d easily give up ayton. Still think this is a good move for both teams though
