  1. Quote from my Republican mom: "I'm more afraid of the vaccine than I am of Covid." This despite seeing my uncle almost die from it. Dude still cannot walk to the bathroom without being winded.
  2. Also nice that the starters did not play a lot since we have a back-to-back coming up.
  3. Great 3rd quarter. Denver also lost tonight and the Spurs are losing. Need to keep chipping away
  4. https://www.texastribune.org/2021/03/23/covid-vaccine-hesitancy-white-republicans/ Politics aside, this has the potential to be a pretty massive issue down the road. My simpleton math says that could potentially be about 1/3 of the state. You have to hope the reluctant folks will continue to come around, but Republicans have been pretty steady in saying they will outright refuse it:
  5. Posted in the other thread but doing it here as well:
  6. Can't they just sign Oladipo this summer? Not sure it's worth it to give up all the other assets if that's the case. If they are going to make a trade, I would absolutely do the deal for Collins even if Maxi is involved. He's younger than all the other guys on the list and would be a legit scorer.
  7. Really nice to see them bounce back against good teams like this. I think a split in Portland is a pretty dang good result. Next 4 are against teams not currently in the playoffs. 3-1 has to be the minimum there.
  8. So I'm sure there were transition plans in place, but who has taken his spot? I want to hope that ratings for right wing radio will go down, but I feel like that's naive. EDIT: Nevermind, just saw the other thread.
  9. @CBT was in rare form tonight. I love that CBT. Great bounce back, boys. Next two are at Portland. Probably just hope for a split. Dame is a bad dude.
  10. Keep us posted if you don't mind.
  11. I don't think we're going to have enough assets to get anybody of note because we do not own our pick this year.
  12. Do people seriously watch a video like that and get that freaked out about his mental state? That was a big nothing burger for me.
  13. Are you having to provide proof of vax or no?
  14. I think Luka should have played against OKC. I think we could have played just as well tonight if Luka would have played two nights ago. I still think it was a a bad loss, but I’m glad the team responded. Go Mavs.
  15. Just adding to the Europe discussion, the WSJ also posted an article: https://www.wsj.com/articles/europe-confronts-a-covid-19-rebound-as-vaccine-hopes-recede-11615558520?mod=hp_lead_pos5 Talk about vaccine messaging all you want, but we appear to be doing a lot better than most.
  16. Who do you think made this decision?
  17. I can agree the messaging has been poor from the administration and Fauci over the past few months vis-a-vis encouraging vaccinations, however, has the messaging really hurt the vaccination effort at this point? Last I saw the 7-day moving average was close to 2.5 million doses per day and I would bet we're topping out over 3 million per day in the near future. Are people thinking that would be higher at this point? Anecdotally, a lot of my network who was once hesitant about getting the vaccine are now actively searching to find it. I'm optimistic we're going to get there and we're going to actually be in a way better position than many EU countries by the beginning of Q2.
  18. Those appointments went really quick. Had a buddy finally get through to register but when he did, none of the DFW cities had any appointments available.
  19. This game is on Carlisle. He made the decision to sit two stars when it seemed completely unnecessary. Now you don’t have a win and you head to Denver for your third game in 4 nights. Even if the two stars are rested, the rest of the roster is now spent. Maybe the team will bail him out, but this was still a bad call.
  20. Annnnnd this is what I was afraid of. Cannot afford losses like this.
  21. I get resting the guys but I sure would like to see them at least available tonight after the extended break. You cannot afford to lose games like this after the terrible skid earlier in the season.
  22. These vaccines are friggin' amazing.
