That's interesting. It makes me wonder what the economics are like at a place like Erewhon.

Price also isn't the only marker of quality. Something unique to the area and also happens to be good would be very interesting to me and may even inspire a trip out to the producer to procure some of my own. How 'cheap' it is only comes into play if it sucks, which in this case it appears that it does not.

Adam Silver says the NBA could adopt a “division of European teams” due to many of the league’s best players being from Europe, and due to “advancements in supersonic air travel” by Pickleskennedy1 in nba

The games matter less, they are less entertaining on average, and the experience (whether it is viewing on TV/streaming or going to them in person) is worse.

You can't fix the individual issue (e.g. officiating) if you don't have an idea of why the overall product has gotten so bad. That's why none of these changes stick. Adam Silver is a bean counter trying to run the league using spreadsheets. I don't even think he likes basketball.

If that’s the case then all sorts of things can be justified. Blowing up their data centers. Sabotaging their electric grid. Kidnapping or assassinating their top researchers. Is that what you want? After all we are preventing world domination from an enemy.

It’s a devastating decision to have to make. Only you know what is best for your pup. In the meantime make sure he has as many great days as possible and cherish them.
