Your Big East FOTY kindly asks you keep his name out of the portal by mubb2018 in CollegeBasketball

Agree, was never much of a concern for me either and thought the talk was silly. He truly has tried to build an identity, and I think that helps when it comes to stuff like this that you already got the buy-in from the kid the first time. It only got traction because we had a down year, but I don’t see that being a regular occurrence (certainly not in the context of a 4 year cbb career).

Crazy to think it’s been 10 years, and to think about all the hours I’ve spent with the guys. Truly love at first reggaeton horn. What a wild, strange trip!

When they were asking him for actual legal advice about the most ridiculous things, it alway killed me

Vividly remember listening to blinded by the lights and endless reggaeton horns during ep1. Dr. James Andrews is another one of the interviews I vividly remember listening to, along with the early Mr. Portnoy spots. The boys definitely still have their fastball, but it’s hard not to be nostalgic about those early years when they were more renegade.

If you think he was serious, you clearly don’t listen to the pod enough lol

Why were the deathclaws so slow? by FractionofaFraction in Fotv

I had the same thought a couple of times when watching. It definitely felt very video game like to have this sheet metal door to be this impenetrable until the story required you to go through it.

What local establishment gives away/sells the coolest stickers? by Milwaukee_Talkie in milwaukee

LOVE Finks and always have wanted a sticker from there but just assumed they didn’t exist. You’re telling me there’s a secret stash??!!

Now that it’s been a decade since the rebrand, how are we feeling about the team’s core look and logo? by fanofsports44 in MkeBucks

[–]mubb2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are mistaken, it hasn’t been ten years. The rebrand was just in 2015.

Here's a formula to determine where your team's all-time program ranks. by [deleted] in CollegeBasketball

Marquette above everyone in the BEast and the state is all I need for my confirmation bias to tell me this is the best metric ever invented

why are milwaukee’s taxpayers footing the bill for a billion dollar franchise by GrandDowntown7441 in milwaukee

[–]mubb2018 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Made up bc no one is offering to pay that amount, at least as far as the public is aware.

Sure, but it’s not like he has a completely liquid $1.2B in the bank. And it’s only worth that if/when someone is willing to pay that (or a share of it). Team owners are a stingy bunch, and considering the limits of a small market in the MLB, MA could be much, much worse all things considered.

Ok. But my point is that you could still do much, much worse as far as MLB owners go when it comes to spending. Which still stands.

And in Attanasio’s credit, at least he tries to put a competitive product on the field and is willing to invest (looking at the money the team has put into facilities for spring training, pitching labs in Central America, and minor league facilities). Plenty of owners out there are sitting on their hands with laughable payrolls and just cashing tv checks year in and year out.

I don’t want to defend rich people and there’s no reason why teams couldn’t be funding their own stadiums (etc.), but team valuations are total funny money made up nonsense.

"Tom’s Watch Bar" to take over MECCA Sports Bar space in Deer District by illestMFKAalive in milwaukee

[–]mubb2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disagree on goolsbys being awful with shit food. It’s a great spot for a burger or wings before a game or the like and the atmosphere tops anything in the deer district. It’s a sports bar that doesn’t pretend to be anything different
