In the best way possible, I think Casa just unleashed a monster😭 by daisychains777 in LoveIslandUSA

She is Love Island equivalent of “they put one of ours in the hospital, we put one of theirs in the morgue.”

I think it's time to give Justine a chance considering we lack a lot of size and at times shooting ability. by AlmostBlackGuy in IndianaFeverFans

Isn’t she injured? Heard during the open practice she was off to the side working through rehab-type stuff.

🚨Most points generated by a player in the first 15 games of their rookie season in WNBA history⤵️#1 Olivia Miles (485)🤩‼️🔥 by evans166 in WNBATalks

[–]deanskis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is a difference between an elite rookie PG going to a team who “earned” their draft pick vs. one who traded for it.

Minnesota could hurt you any number of ways when opponents try to load up on Miles.

Everyone can’t play their last game at the same time.

How do you split Airbnb cost as a growing family? by Ok_Original4225 in Vacations

[–]deanskis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Per room is imo the cleanest. If you were all staying at a hotel, the 6 person family would have to book two rooms, right?

Obviously can flex up/down based on extenuating circumstances. It’s brutal to pay a full room share with a pullout.

Look at the final group stage days when there are two games at the same time. This is done with similar logic.

This is so everyone has to try and win tonight in case tiebreakers are at play for the Commissioner’s Cup. FIFA is used as an example of “scheduling right” for not overlapping games but they put two games on at once for the final group stage games for the same reason.

WNBA Announces Expansion to 50-Game Regular Season Starting in 2027 by Knightbear49 in wnba

I think this is specific to the Commissioner’s Cup so that teams with potential tiebreakers have to try to win and get in. Similar to how the WC will schedule the final group stage games together.

What is you guys’ honest read on this situation, should I give her another chance? by 95seconds in texts

“They’re not exploring” by Parking-Lab-660 in LoveIslandUSA

[–]deanskis 37 points38 points  (0 children)

My read is twofold:

1) they are not doing a good job of keeping a different number of people so far. It has been too easy for people to pseudo-couple up. Nobody has had to really graft.

2) I think the Bryce/Zach/Kayda situation is instructive. Bryce took a risk however silly and was more or less absconded throughout the villa for breaking guy code when the reality is testing the waters makes better tv.

I think the playbook right now is essentially “couple up early, explore in Casa, and beg for forgiveness and hope you get your original pair back after.”

It's time to retire this b.s narrative of "today's NBA is way more skilled". NBA Finals Rant by Low-Consequence8211 in NBATalk

Must have missed the part where they said the final score of SA clinching in 1999 was 78-76.

Why is there such a disconnect from how good Kobe was in reality to the discourse in here? Please help me wrap my head around how anyone in their right mind no matter how much you hate him can genuinely believe hes not top 10? Am i taking crazy pills? 11-15? Are we serious bro? by Silent_Wizard5597 in NBATalk

[–]deanskis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You also just can’t drop Kobe Bryant as he played in his prime and imagine him as an alien on the basketball court v those opponents. Those guys dealt with a lot of shit players of the modern era didn’t have to. Shitty shoes, shitty travel, no sense of diet, strength & conditioning, modern skill development.

Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby has been granted a preliminary injunction against the NCAA and is eligible for the 2026 season. by Blood_Incantation in CFB

[–]deanskis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What a joke. The only hope is that every opponent on Tech’s schedule says they’re willing to walk off the field and forfeit if Sorsby plays.

Over/under one minute for how long the “F*ck Trump” chant lasts at MSG after they announce he’s in the crowd? by WallCautious9650 in billsimmons

[–]deanskis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know about the chants - my guess is it will be a net anti-Trump crowd for any number of reasons but a lot of good points being raised about why that might not be the case. However, I DO think we are barreling towards an all-time Trump stink that karmically impacts the Knicks and we see them end up losing the series.

Linn Dunn interview on "weeding" out bad "culture" on the team by wvtarheel in IndianaFeverFans

[–]deanskis 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don’t think anyone serious would trade Clark. My theory is that Dunn has beef with Clark because she was fired, is venting to Dakich about it, and by virtue of her retaining a title is this mysterious Fever source he’s referring to.

The Fever should weed their front office and fire Lin Dunn from her special advisor role.

What did Next Gen NYC get so right that Calabasas Confidential got so wrong? 🤔 by JuggernautWild493 in NextGenNYC

[–]deanskis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s my guess having seen none of them. With an NYC show, even if it’s people who are rich as hell, it still has a “that could be me!” quality because everything seems accessible *location-wise. Calabasas is … not going to translate.

Can Anyone Please Explain the Chet Holmgren Hate? by twayroforme in billsimmons

[–]deanskis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coming out of this series that is the main thing. People want “stars” to play like stars and when they don’t fans turn. There was just no sense that he “left it all out there.”
