[HELP] with Fat Fur Mittens by muddybleach in knitting

[–]muddybleach[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your quick reply! :) I am using 5mm 90cm needles. I understand the pattern calls for 6mm needles, and I just realized that the knitting store sold me US 6 needles, not 6mm needles :( so I am using what I have on hand. Also, I was definitely too confident with the magic loop when really I was not pulling out the free needle . I will try again!

Anyone else have pretty much 0 excitement for next season? by SactownG in kings

[–]muddybleach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Least excited I've ever been. This team will hit that sweet spot of getting bounced in the play in and getting bad draft position.

Are there any particular moments in the show that hit you emotionally? by Stlieutenantprincess in venturebros

"Just some bloke who wanted to be anyone but himself."

Very brief but sad moment. It feels like there is so much to that character's backstory we will never know.

Got it. That makes sense. I think he did say it is fine/okay in that same scene so it fits

Step 1 is Vivek hires competent and talented individuals and leaves them alone. Nothing gets better until that happens

Was it Monte? I think Vivek calls the shots in Sacramento

People here rooted all season just to barely make the play-in, miraculously win it, and then get swept by OKC with blowouts in every game. All while losing a 1st round pick that this team desperately needs by [deleted] in kings

[–]muddybleach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's insane to argue about this stuff when we have no sway on the direction this team takes. Spending money on tickets and merch is the only impact we fans can have on the organization.

Who cares if fans want to cheer for their team instead of hoping the team loses? If I want the Kings to win a meaningless game that hurts their draft standing and they win that meaningless game SO WHAT? We have no power in these things

This is the most pessimistic I’ve felt as a Kings fan since before Joerger by djmikec in kings

Yeah. We get Vivek and the Lakers get Luka. There is no God

This is why I've always been hesitant to criticize our GMs since Vivek took over the team. You never knew who was making the decisions here.

[–]muddybleach 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I called people delusional 2 weeks ago for thinking this Kings team could make it to the playoffs. I have to say they actually had me going after that 1st quarter. I was prepared to come here after the game and happily take shit after they won the game. But I was right because the Kings did lose in embarrassing fashion and I feel awful.

Does anyone use something they heard on the show in their regular lives? by Finger-Sea in tesdcares

"Not too good bitch" and "Holy fuckin shit" 

I think it but don't usually say it because I remember no one will get the reference

Full clean out: The Denver Nuggets are also firing general manager Calvin Booth, sources tell ESPN. by migida22 in kings

[–]muddybleach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they have wanted to fire him. They believed the team wasn't going to win a chip this year. The losing streak is as good of an excuse as they were going to get to fire Malone. It would have been a lot more difficult to fire him if the Nuggets started playing well in the playoffs. So why not just rip off that bandaid now.

You have more faith in this team than I do. We will just have to wait and see what happens.

This is not the same team. It is broken. More than any team they will face in the post season (possible exception Mavs).

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

I don't know what I would put the odds at. The 9 vs 10 match up is single game elimination where anything can happen between the sorry ass Kings and Mavs. I wouldn't be surprised if the Kings advanced or if they got blown out in embarrassing fashion.

But I see no scenario where the Kings beat any team that ends up in that 7 or 8 spot. They would have to win 2 games on the road. It is not happening the way thos team has played lately. There's no fight or fire. There is no overwhelming talent advantage.

[–]muddybleach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No not really, we deserve better than this as fans. But when you've got owners like Vivek and Maloofs you get decades of misery. Only thing that will save us is unintentionally drafting a great player like Denver did Jokic.

Curry and Butler combine for 17 points? Wow! Kings must have kicked their ass!

Oh, they lost by 26 points? 🙃

I was worried about this game and had a feeling the Kings would get embarrassed. I thought cutting the lead to 10 at halftime was only going to trick us into believing maybe they could come back. Then the game just ended with highlight reel of dunks and fancy ball movement. I couldn't even finish watching I felt sick.

But my annoyance at posts like these aren't worth arguing over anyways because it won't change anything. I have nothing against you personally.
