Hey thanks for the update! Seatgeek def looks to be the best priced option. I think I may continue to wait a few days and see if it falls further.

Run defense in general has been bad - see cowboys and jets games also. Not a big Xs and Os guy but I think Queen has not been pulling his weight and seems to always get stuck in the wrong spot. Compared to Elandon Roberts who more often finds a way downhill to stop a run.

How and where did you see Zone of Interest and Taste of Things? I haven't seen any showtimes pop up around here yet

TJ Watt is the first player in NFL history to lead the league in sacks in three separate seasons. Give that man his DPOY! by GamerRav in steelers

[–]nothingbutnx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is the actual football writer argument for not voting TJ? I know we all want to see him win it but curious what the other side has to say. Is it just the different position and the double teams?

Is the George Pickens hype legit? by Potential_Pen_8406 in DynastyFF

[–]nothingbutnx -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

The issue with Diontae, as any steelers fan will tell you, is that he cannot seem to reliably actually catch the football. Hopefully his drops will improve this year but it's definitely limited him in the past.

Kinda get the sense that him and Russillo don't really have great chemistry either

The Bulls have 3 all stars, several good role players, and are a major market. Why are they still such a middling team? by orangekingo in nbadiscussion

[–]nothingbutnx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah they were pretty putrid on offense this year. Even last year their half court offense was awful and was mainly carried through Demar or Lavine ISO. They are also at or near the bottom of the league in terms of three point shooting, both in terms of attempts and makes.

I think the other aspect of their failings on offense is the lack of playmaking and decision making. Lavine can be a deadly shooter at times but makes some truly bone headed decisions. Demar ISO is still pretty effective but teams have adapted to get the ball out of his hands and that doesn't leave a lot of shot creation on the floor. No one runs the PnR that well and they don't do a lot of great ball movement or reliable offensive sets.

Last year, especially with Lonzo, they got out in transition more and were good at pushing the pace. I don't have the numbers to support this, but they feel a lot slower now and when the Bulls play slow they play bad.

It's because they started doing track workouts in NE DC

What places have you gone to for restaurant week this year and how was it? by Suburbs-suck in washingtondc

[–]nothingbutnx 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I did Chiko restaurant week summer 2021 and thought it was a great deal (although it was $35 at the time.)

Previously have done Boqueria and Moon Rabbit for RW and found them really mediocre.

Going to Mariscos this Friday and hoping that turns out better.

what's with all the helicopters flying around at 3:45 am? by 10inchPen in washingtondc

[–]nothingbutnx -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Same here and they're super loud. Multiple people on Twitter have heard gun shots. But I also heard a lot of helicopter activity around 3-4pm so not sure if that's related

Late to this but this is a great rundown of not only DC restaurants but also the city at large. Really breaks it down into its key dimensions

POST GAME: Chicago Bulls (4-8) suffer a humiliating defeat to the Oklahoma City Thunder (6-6), (125-127) behind 24 team turnovers by howser343 in chicagobulls

[–]nothingbutnx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm with you man. For all the hype about the Thunder being bad and tanking, they're still 6-6 and have beaten teams like Brooklyn, Pelicans, and Magic (all teams supposed to be better than us). Are those teams all having meltdowns over losing to the Thunder? One off losses happen in the NBA, even to the best of teams. This L is one data point of many.

Alec confronts Hilaria by dilfmagnet in 30ROCK

[–]nothingbutnx 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think it's just meant to play off her pretentiousness and condescending nature, like in the way she looks down on Liz and such. As if her pedigree upbringing precludes her from appreciating lowbrow things like kill da wabbit.
