    It goes way beyond the graphics and replays.  Those don't bother me.  It's the same stupid commercials over and over again.  The idiot announcers and sideline reporters.  The human interest stories that don't mean a fuck to me.  Interviewing coaches during the fucking game.  I don't care about all the superfluous bullshit they try to cram into a broadcast these days because most people have the attention span of a gnat.

    So I smoke a bowl and listen to Craig.

    I say this as someone who grew up syncing Schoenig and Craig, then Craig and Keith to the tv broadcast so I could get the best of both.... So understand I am someone with a deep fondness for Craig.... But if you think a broadcast that features Roger Wallace and Will Matthews is vastly superior to watching on TV, then I guess we just agree to disagree! "pause 15 seconds for station identification" is at least as annoying as Dr Pepper fansville 😂

  2. Even GS has been draft and develop when you take out the KD move.  The only super teams that have ever won had only involved Lebron.
    Celtics big 3 (4? Does rondo count?) sort of a mix of both. But that was an entirely different era at this point.
  3. It will never happen, but if the NBA wants parity they are going to have to implement something where each team can only have 1 Max player. Other wise it is going to remain super teams and the squads like pistons and rockets will have a ton of young players and could be fun, but will never actually be a threat.
    They arent going to be able to keep their young squads together for 7-8 years to get them to their prime, and they arent going to be able to add an all NBA player to their young core to make them competitive. 

    It really is lottery purgatory. 
    Celtics and Nuggets are basically home grown.

    Lakers and Heat less so... but those two teams, specifically, rarely are.

    I don't think "super teams" are as big of a problem for the NBA as load management. Which, as a Spurs fan, is not easy to admit, considering Pop basically started the trend.

  4. The HEB closest to my house (hancock) has been out of  the Carolina Reaper cheese puffs for a couple of weeks now, so I opted for the cheese crunchy option (think cheetos) for a fix. Not terrible, but nowhere near the perfection that the puffs are. I give the puffs a 10 out of 10, these get like a 7.

    Just tried the Carolina reaper puffs. Not sure if they're always available and I've just missed them or they're special edition. Holy fuck balls they are perfect

  5. It also means Alan Ruck was about my age now when he filmed Ferris Bueller.  
     
    I got sucked into an article last On the brilliance of the wardrobe designer in succession.  I laughed at first but became entranced.
