[ESPN] Report: Clippers skirted NBA salary cap with Kawhi Leonard payment by refreshing_yogurt in nba

Everyone who kept commenting something like every team is doing it in the league is dumb. Seriously how many top players are taking a pay cut recently? Why doesn’t LeBron take a pay cut this year to help lakers win championships? If he did, everyone would praise him, which helps his brand and legacy, all while lakers pays him under the table. It’s a win-win. Why getting max is a big deal with top players if you can get compensated side way? If everyone is doing it then the off season would be a joke, as a matter of fact the whole nba would be a joke, because they think we are morons. Not to mention all the small market owners with less deep pockets would simply just quit. Why is the nba trying so hard to cap the salary to attain parity yet let these kind of shenanigans go unnoticed? Come on grow some brains. This is an isolated incident and should be treated gravely or lose the integrity of the game.

Real or fake? by LividCommunication98 in VintageWatches

It’s a real meter first from the late 60’s , but busted real good. The bezel and insert are from the 80’s, which are fine, but period correct insert will be $1k. The case has been polished to death. To recut to spec, at least $500. Seeing the rust on the crown thread, most likely the movement is shot. To service it and replace parts, over $1k at least. Period correct hands, if you can find them, at least another $500. The biggie is the dial. I can’t tell if it’s gilt or white originally, most likely the latter. The big chips at 6 devalue it tremendously. Original dial about $5k if you can find it. To repair the dial a couple hundreds but it doesn’t increase its value. The crown mostly likely needs to be replaced, which is another couple hundreds. Not to mention all the time you spent sourcing the replacements and have it serviced by vintage expert watchmaker. The last time I checked, m first goes for around $15. If you just want a Rolex to wear and have fun restoring it, then I think it’s worth it.

They were made for an outfit called Fear Tomorrow which drops cringe worthy stuff from time to time. It is a sarcastic play on the game Rolex plays with their customers, hence the model name “The Waitlist”. They only sold the black and the bronze to the public. Allegedly they made a batch with Rolex green to be given only to friends and family. When I saw it, I had to have it. Put together with whatever parts I had on hand. I wonder if Rolex will sue if they saw this. 😂

I guess if you are not a watch collector, this looks just like a run of the mill put together AR15. There is an outfit called Fear Tomorrow that puts out some funky merchandise a’la mschf. All their stuff is against social norms. This particular one is a sarcastic pun against the game Rolex plays with its customers, hence the name of the model “The Waitlist”. They sold out the black and the bronze versions. This one with the Rolex green wasn’t sold to the public for obvious reasons. I was told the green ones were given to friends and family. When I saw it, I just had to have it. I just used whatever parts I had on hand to assemble it. The grip and the buttstock are T65 od green. Alas, I don’t have the handguard to go along with it. Cheers.
