  1. On the other hand, I love KJ Adams' game but his body proportions are so weird I can't ever think about anything else. Dude it taking way too much HGH and his legs are too short.
  2. I fucking hate Hunter Dickinson
  3. And yeah the floor fucking sucks
  4. UCF has a chance to do the funniest thing...
  5. They should be a lot better than a sub-.500 Big East team just looking at their roster. Ed Cooley gonna have to start producing.
  6. Speaking of Zion, who's on our all time fat boy NCAA team? Julius Peppers Larry Johnson Zion Williamson Shelvin Mack Sherron Collins? That's just off the top of my head, I'm probably missing quite a few. I remember people calling him _urant at the beginning of the year because of that
  7. I like this list, rotate with Steph Curry, Kemba Walker/Dwyane Wade (pick one), Carmelo Anthony, Patrick Ewing, Tyler Hansbrough There are a few others I'd like to throw in just to shake it up like Jalen Brunson or David Robinson (people forget he was also bad ass at Navy)
  8. WVU fans have been crying on Twitter about Javon Small not being Big 12 POY too
  9. I think we should let Colorado win the Big 12 tourney because that would be the funniest possible outcome
  10. Literally every protest ever of any substantial size is a mixed bag. There are always going to be people that either press things too far or use the premise of the protest as cover to push an agenda that's actually nefarious in nature. The infamous Charlottesville Unite the Right rally is perhaps the greatest example of this where there were many, many peaceful protestors/demonstrators on both sides, but there were also quite a few groups that used the premise of the rally as an excuse to intimidate others, inflict violence on others, or otherwise engage in activities that most of the people in attendance would find abhorrent (such as the tiki torch mob that was marching and chanting "Jews will not replace us!" etc). What Brisket is trying to say to you is that we cannot be lulled into a state where we begin to accept the US government imprisoning, black bagging, and/or deporting people who are not engaging in illegal activities simply because they are engaging in speech that our elected representatives do not like. Once we begin to accept that, we are lost as a society, period. Civil disobedience has been one of the (if not THE) greatest tools available to affect positive change on our society from a civil rights perspective, and people like you are [seemingly] unwittingly cheering on the government's attempts to destroy that tool with finality. It's very dismaying to see. Again, no one disagrees with you that antisemitism is a problem, and no one disagrees that antisemitism increased (worldwide, not just on college campuses) after the events of October 7th, it was inevitable, and it fucking sucks. People suck. Our highest levels of government are now infested with actual antisemitic pieces of shit. A White House deputy chief of staff and homeland security advisor is an out and about actual unapologetic neo-Nazi. These people do not give the slightest shit about Jewish people beyond using them and the state of Israel as a tool to ultimately silence and/or punish all speech critical of their actions.
  11. Honestly this post deserves a neg because it's another very thinly veiled attempt at equating speech critical of the nation state of Israel with antisemitism. That's not to even begin listing off all the reasons that the ADL is a dogshit org that no serious person would ever cite as a source for anything.
  12. Do we really need another lesson in why the ADL is not at all a credible organization? e: This is not to say antisemitism is not a very bad, very real thing that threatens Jewish people on a daily basis. It is. That doesn't mean that your open support for Gestapo operations against people exercising protected speech is any less insane.
  13. It's fake Not that this kind of shit is beneath those two dipshits
  14. "I hate Trump but I love his blatant Gestapo ops against people that make me feel feelings" is certainly a position to take. Once again, I weep for our education system.
  15. I don't think UT would consider Sampson right now but if he was, say, 10 years younger I think you'd be insane not to. Right now, he's clearly one of the best coaches in the business regardless. He's been to 4 straight sweet 16s, two elite eights, and a final four in the last 5 years.
  16. Lol. Get real. No one serious gives the slightest shit about that anymore. Sampson is a great coach that produces results. His only issue is being old.
  17. Sure, I think everyone here understands that, at least at a basic level. The issue at hand here is that equating anti-Zionist, pro-Palestinian liberation, etc. speech with supporting Hamas is a completely ludicrous conflation. However, that extremely flawed premise is exactly what is being used here by this administration (and the previous one, to a lesser degree) in a pretty naked attempt to muddy the distinction and suppress what should be protected speech. No matter what your position on Israel/Palestine, saying "Fuck Israel" or "Free Palestine" (or whatever you want to say in the opposite direction) should not get you arrested, deported, and/or black bagged by the state, period. This should not be a controversial thing to say. I don't think anyone here would argue that Hamas is a good actor or that support for Hamas is an acceptable position for anyone to take. Certainly, offering material support to Hamas in any way should be considered completely unacceptable, I wouldn't think a single person that posts on this site would disagree with that position.
  18. This is the guy @HellesBier was trying to convince us he was.
  19. These people do not differentiate. As far as the administration is concerned, protesting in any way in favor of Palestinian emancipation is support for Hamas, full stop. That's the end of it. The fact that the notion is patently absurd on its face and that the actions of ICE/DHS are illegal as fuck be damned. Don't forget that piece of shit Shai Davidai.
  20. Friend whose daughter is a member of JSA at NYU just texted me this
  21. I think we're probably a 3 seed due to non-con schedule. Unless we win the Big 12 tourney.
  22. It would save his job in my opinion, at least for a year, but seems quite unlikely and not a real thing to worry about
