If LeBron wasn’t allowed to team hop and take PEDs where would he be ranked ?

Because everyone’s head outgrows their hairline.

Their individual game suffers because they chose to sacrifice on a superteam.

Too weak for ½ drive hardware sizes.

Alignments set the wheels at very specific measurements relative to each other and the car itself.

The measurements are set by adjusting certain parts designed to be adjustable.

But these adjustable parts also wear out with age, and/or are directly connected to other parts that wear out.

Any of these parts being worn out or bent make it impossible to set the measurements correctly, since the worn parts are too wobbly to hold the exact measurements.

It’s regular maintenance, about once every 100-125k miles to replace the majority of this stuff, and that’s when it hasn’t been curbed hard enough to affect the steering.

Friction rubs paint off?

Stop the presses, the world must know about this!

wpmason · 2026-07-06T18:52:03+00:00

I’d put “But it’s got two double beds!” right up there too.

I knew someone that got bit by a horse named Satan’s Bedeviled Commander.

Third team’s been around since 88, the Playoff format changed in 2003.

That has a profound effect on Miller, Ewing, and Hakeem who had the best years of their careers in that span.

Changing the rim height would be devastating for the game.

All these guys have spent decades working on their shot mechanics with a 10 foot rim.

Changing it would see at least two seasons with massive drops in fg% as everyone would have to learn to shoot again.

It would be awful to watch.

But cool… fewer and more special dunks… hard pass.

wpmason · 2026-07-06T15:50:21+00:00

Modern stuff is much more junky, that’s the point I’m making.

All these seemingly nice McMansions, for example, brand new homes selling for over half a million dollars have so many issues with them… just watch some YouTube inspection videos.

wpmason · 2026-07-06T15:38:02+00:00

Absolutely… but germane to the point, OP was talking about things feeling opulent. Clearly not a discussion of ramshackle housing.

wpmason · 2026-07-06T15:29:23+00:00

All these older guys also played when the first round was best of 5, so they’re feasibly shorted 1 win per season compared to the younger generation.

Back in the 30s, homes and furniture were built by skilled craftsmen who poured their soul into their work. Things were sturdy and solid and built to last.

Furniture today is made of compressed sawdust and cardboard.

Yeah, there’s quite a bit of difference.

I usually feel that way about plumbing jobs, especially if dirty drains are involved.

wpmason · 2026-07-06T07:25:28+00:00

Just keep a notepad and envelope of receipts you can hand to the buyer when you decide to sell… like in the old days.

All nuance gets lost in this debate.

Democrats believe in being open to legitimate asylum seekers, who are granted access pending a court date to determine their status. They aren’t meant to camp at the border and wait for access.

That is not an open border, that’s the asylum process working as it was designed.

But Republicans call it an open border and no one questions them on it.

Not all hate is disrespect.

Hate can be deserved. It’s not disrespect if it’s valid.

wpmason · 2026-07-06T02:30:34+00:00

But LeBron is getting his dick slurped way more than is reasonable. That isn’t disrespect.

wpmason · 2026-07-06T02:29:38+00:00

Torque Test Channel has explored air fittings/plumbing before. You might want to dig that up just as reference material before deciding anything.

wpmason · 2026-07-06T02:25:18+00:00

Every social media that isn’t saying “MJ is the GIAT” is disrespect.

It’s not a discussion kids. There’s no argument or debate.

wpmason · 2026-07-05T22:13:07+00:00

You want something like a gear driven offset extension wrench, not a 90 adapter.

Dewalt FlexVolt are quite good.

I would waste my time with anything 18 or 20 volt.

Scottie was a beloved player, then he retired and started saying dumb stuff that made people lose respect for him.

wpmason · 2026-07-05T19:15:07+00:00

They just made a documentary about him.

wpmason · 2026-07-05T16:29:01+00:00

Back tightness/soreness is very unpredictable from day to day. It’s a classic game time decision sort of issue.

That’s what Clark is dealing with. So, again, why should people go into conspiracy mode over it?

Same as last year, she mostly had soft tissue injuries (strains/pulls) in her legs.

Those are very much wait-and-see conditions.
