  1. This news is revealing rot at the bottom/top of the university that makes me really not even care who the new AD is because regardless of who it seems like a losing battle.
  2. Guys did we just.... lose the offseason national championship? dynasty over :'(
  3. Not sure I agree with that and I'm curious why you think so. The Spurs have to be the most boring championship franchise I can think of across any major sport in terms of entertainment. If anything I'd say their success in the 00s-10s would be despite the NBA having a vested interest in flashier, sexier storylines from bigger markets and/or more storied franchises.
  4. I understand that is a narrative. I don't understand if you actually believe it or not (because despite it being something that people think is true, it isn't).
  5. Just take the L my dude. That's due to you not paying attention; not due to a super radical lib clandestine open border agenda.
  6. Which would mean Lebron was a greater one, no? Regardless, potential as a prospect and hype aren't the exact same thing.
  7. I don't think Wemby's hype and expectations are even 1/10th of what Lebron had.
  8. Hell, do ranked choice voting for a pool of XX number of candidates, and then do a random lottery. Tired of being denied thoughtful and effective servants and leaders because they aren't also total opportunistic kiss-a$$ charismatic celebrities.
  9. Respectfully, archy, bull fucking s#!t. Hide behind your benign technicalities all you want, but the fruit of a tree tells you its quality.
  10. It's not really even that. I'm very very far from being a constitutional scholar but here's section 3 of amendment 14 and also section 3 of article 3 of the constitution: So yeah, the ruling makes it clear that Congress has the power to decide this. But also, there's the whole "unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act" part that doesn't seem to be acknowledged or explained at all.
  11. re: the bolded, that's severely understating it: "Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States."
  12. Not just leagues, but anything. If you think about it, we can't trust scientists either, because it's their job, not their hobby.
  13. Go ahead and feel free not to watch if you can't handle the idea of possibly losing in a.... competition? lol
  14. What is "basketball"?
  15. It's surely something to see the folks so out of breath about 'identity politics' end up being the folks going the most full send into cult of personality because, "he gets us".
  16. And what's the 'why' behind the needless and limiting narrow scope of 'The Left'? Seems very plank in your own eye energy considering the issue is glaringly NOT an exclusive feature to them only.
  17. Yes, the Overton Window has shifted dramatically due to asymmetrical polarization largely thanks to the demented behavior of the Tea Party followed by the MAGA cult. So, I mean, thanks for being an active participant in the thing you're suddenly so bewildered by? Oh, I mean, if the basis of our arguments is just making up imaginary characters from the past to prove a point, and refusing to delineate the specific from the general, then I guess we can all make up whatever narratives we want. This definitely happens. Sorry to spoil the news that it happens across all sides of the political and sociological aisles, or did you forget the effigys of Obama in a noose and the veracious birtherism campaign and claims of being a marxist muslim antichrist?
  18. 100% on the side, generally speaking over the last 25 years or so, that it's not 'missed' calls as much as a deliberate lack of care or emphasis on the calls. But with that being said, the NBA made an offseason point to focus more on traveling, palming and carrying, and the rates those have been called have gone up quite a whole lot this season. Still nowhere even in the same universe as what little you can get away with in high school and college, but better than it has historically been.
  19. Noooo do not hype us up just let us quietly do our thing.
  20. Sounds like you don't like Russia.
  21. Nobody. The poster making the claim notoriously gets off on making things up to feel good arguing against them.
  22. So...what's the 3?
  23. Yeah, It absolutely tracks that you have forgotten the existence of reports saying things like, "“numerous links between the Russian government and the Trump Campaign.”, “a Russian entity carried out a social media campaign that favored presidential candidate Donald J. Trump and disparaged presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.”, “[a] statement that the investigation did not establish particular facts does not mean there was no evidence of those facts.”, and “investigation established that the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome, and that the Campaign expected it would benefit electorally from information stolen and released through Russian efforts.”
