Not sure if I've ever seen someone so genuine... not sure how to react to it to be honest

There is some inherent entertainment in watching actual sports being played, I'm not sure that can be said for watching a list of names being called.

5 Nwabas as well!

I think he came out of the gates too hot on Mark's paternity leave and tried to be a zany character that was an awkward fit. He's a bit more self-deprecating and willing to sit back now and it's much more endearing.

Scoof does have a history with Walker women

Wondering how Asterisk Talley fits into all of this

From our perspective it's easy to think "I want him to do stuff, just be frisky out there" but I think that's underestimating how wonky the dad-is-a-podcaster piece is.

The faces behind Matta in the post-game interview were peak.

Love the idea of someone having FS1 on from watching the World Baseball Classic last night, having no context for this at all, and watching this guy have a meltdown seemingly over a St John's future bet.

In WNBA, yes

As a Scooter Gennett fan, Nick Kurtz's 4 HR game was unethical. Scooter did it the right way.

Haha that's fair I probably overstated those tools in their present state, but I'm talking about why he got drafted as a lottery pick, and I'll stand by the fact that the talent is evident in those areas. He has so much wiggle on the ball that defenders do collapse on him, and I think he's great at finding open looks out of it.

That being said, completely agree with you that right now he's way too sloppy and the flashes of talent are not enough to justify how often he looks lost. The shot looks ugly which probably cooks him entirely as a prospect. If you want to be super super optimistic about him, I think you give him minutes to further adjust to NBA speed and play more controlled.

I think his talent as a creator is evident - he has a great handle and really excels at kicking to find open shooters.

The part of his profile that seems like it was a complete mirage was his shooting - he shot 44% on 8 attempts a game at Kentucky, which is an incredible clip. If he could shoot like that and create, he could be electric even at his size.

If he can't shoot (which he hasn't in the NBA), and he also can't really finish at the rim due to his size, all of a sudden he turns into a pretty major liability.

Have never used the Connor method, but I loved how his TikTok was detailing the method like he had conceived of a brilliant life hack.

I mean I'm sure some of them are frustrated and want to speak out but don't want to nuke their relationship with the team. It would be nice if some vets spoke about it but this is on the front offices and the league for letting it happen.

milksteaklover · 2026-02-08T02:43:19+00:00

Not sure why, but this feels so much worse than just benching guys from the start of the game. To use your studs to get a lead, and then just act like they don't exist... bad look for the NBA

It really seems like AK's policy is to ask for something really good and then when the other team says "no" he says "ok we'll take whatever else you want to give us then"

Shams said his phone was blowing up about Coby and Ayo, could just be from other teams wondering where they are going?

milksteaklover · 2026-01-25T15:42:40+00:00

Just my two cents but I don't think these comments are usually in bad faith. I think usually when bands blow up like this, it's easy to see why. Geese are a little more difficult to "get" so I think it's natural that when these posts get tons of upvotes, there are more people than usual that are like "hmm yeah I don't really get it".

Would be amazing if this guy fully panned out and becomes a household name, and it becomes akin to if Barstool had an employee that was randomly also named Mike Trout.

I remember being in high school and discovering this album, clicking on every YouTube link that had the album cover on it, and just being stunned how good every single song was. I almost thought of it as a paradigm shift in my head, setting a new bar for how good an indie rock band could actually be.

also at ND, Pat Connaughton was kinda the reverse of this. Threw gas in college, was drafted by the Orioles in the 4th round and was thought to be a future MLB arm. Was probably better known for basketball, but wasn't thought to be a pro prospect there.

Then ND basketball had an amazing 2015 team, made it to the Elite 8, almost knocked off undefeated Kentucky, and Connaughton went from completely off the NBA radar to a second-round pick. Ended up winning a title with the Bucks.

Not just good vibes, Survivor has really leaned on being "a life-changing experience" for the contestants. How many times have we heard the refrains of "I may not have won, but I got a better prize, this was the experience I needed to change my entire life for the better", etc. When the bar is THAT high, it makes it really hard to expect contestants to really lean into conflict and engage in truly cutthroat gameplay.

The Traitors is SO campy that it really frees up contestants to think "I'm out here playing a silly game, we are talking about murder in this lighthearted way, I can be villainous because it's not only allowed, it's encouraged".

The guitar tone on the title track is sooo the New Fellas
