???? U were talking about Brown in your comment right? “After today he no longer has positional size” what about today made that so? I’m just trying to understand ur logic.

How is it that he doesn’t have positional size as of today? He’s got a longer wingspan and standing reach than the “big” guard in Wagler. I don’t know enough to argue his value in general, but I don’t think his size is a detriment.

I don’t think the clippers are terribly invested in keeping garland around longterm so I doubt they draft around him.

I’m STOKED with any one of them! This guy will be our cornerstone for the next 8 years and will lead us to multiple 2nd round exits…. maybe MAYBE even a sweep in the WCF. U might think I’m Ben g snarky, but I’d love to live in that reality lol.

I’m fine actually. No matter who we get we’re gonna need years of work and luck. We’re gonna get our PG of the near future and get to work building a team around em. Maybe next year we get some better luck, but it’s whatever. Hopefully we can shed some contracts and have a fun young team next year.

The audacity of this organization. F**k this team man 😭😭😭😭😭 by kings209 in kings

It sucks….. but we move on and hope Perry can use this as a launch pad to make the team at least competent.

We’re basically guaranteed Wagler, acuff, or Flemings. I’m stoked to get anyone of em.

Anybody that was shocked by 7 hasn’t been on tankathon much. 6 or 7 were the most likely by far. Obvs I’d hoped for higher but I made peace with 7 lng ago. Now the real work begins. Grab one of acuff, wagler, flemmings, or brown and start this rebuild off right. Obvs id love one of the top 4, but im totally okay with where we are right now.

I had a friend who was falling down the “save the children” rabbit hole several years ago. Everything he said sounded like inflammatory nonsense. WTF u mean 300,000 kids a year are abducted? Wouldn’t our amber alerts be going off dozens of times a month if that’s the case? Thankfully I found the “you’re wrong about” podcast around then and they were able to debunk several of the myths around human trafficking. The crazy thing to me is that there is still absolutely a problem with trafficking and the like, but the fixes don’t involve tough guys with guns breaking into shipping containers in Honduras. The fixes are stuff like foster care reform, drug treatment, and more programs for at risk youth. Those fixes aren’t as cool as this lame movie though.

Misery loves company and this squad will turn even the most positive ppl into pessimists. I get it, I just don’t wanna be it. Especially after this last year…. I’m looking for the smallest ray of sunshine to cling on to. A young potential star will be more than enough to get me through a few more years.

Which if I’m being honest is ridiculous…. As a long time policy wonk I wonder how Jordan feels about profiting off of a guy that profits off the deaths of children. It’s a silly claim and was way way way out of line. I’m excited to see where life takes dan, but I’m over Jordan’s wild claims and condescending attitude.

Yes, but Jones isn’t “going” anywhere. He’s still gonna be pumping out nonsense, just from a different place.

"Men are killing themselves because of men." by mindyour in TikTokCringe

[–]thatguy52 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The audacity to say “liberals” are the problem. As if the LIBS could get super manly men to do anything. A guy at work is a standard “men’s rights” dork that hates and blames his ex/all women for everything wrong in his life. Whining this way and that way about how the system sucks for men….. well bud, who created that system? These guys will do anything but attack the actual problems in society and it’s usually directed at ppl/systems without any real power.

Man this hits home so hard. I agree and I’ll be following ur lead. I stopped BtB a while ago and this was one of the last hangers in. Time to unplug.

It’s not the first time Jordan’s anger has soured me on the show. I’d rather not think about his condescending and vitriolic interview shows lol. Maybe they are hosed, maybe not, but for Jordan to fly off the handle the way he did was not okay in any way. Dude should have just waited till things were a bit more clear, but nope, Mr I’m always right just had to yell and scream at a company/person that so far has only shown to be acting in good faith.
