  1. I read somewhere on Spurs twitter that the sentiment was that we did them a solid. Which is apparently somewhat valuable in a league that is never necessarily lining up to help out the Spurs. So whatever. Build some good will.
  2. Damn, guess I'm the only one feeling a little bad for Woodley. He just don't got it with this new era of killers in that division. After the last 2 performances of his I told myself I'd never ever root for him, and I wasn't this fight, but at least he tried. He went for broke, he just ain't got it. I can respect rolling the dice at least.
  3. Agreed. Just like his show, I'd say maybe 40% of the jokes hit, but when they do, the ridiculousness gets big belly laughs from me.
  4. Also added a bit to my IBRX position this week. That sub-$30 range was close enough to my average I couldn't pass it up.
  5. I've kinda been checking in and out of games this year, watching in the background, and haven't gotten a good feel for what's wrong with this team. The defense seems to be off, and our offense seems to have a lot of slashers that otherwise struggle to create for themselves. Unfortunately Derrick White isn't making the impact as a creator I'd hoped he would make since coming back.
  6. He must be thinking of Shaq Griffin.
  7. I spread $500 around 5 positions just to dip my toes in to robinhood amid the meme stock craze (first timer). I've turned it into $620 in about 7 weeks; I know it's not a lot, but it's honest work (and long-plays). The only two stocks leading the charge are UUUU and IBRX. Everything else is stagnant. The lesson I've learned so far is take less advice from Twitter, more from strangers on Surly (H.S.).
  8. Thought I was late to the game on AMYZF, going back a few pages it looks like my avg of 1.36 isn't too bad, esp considering the first buy was at 1.45. But, I'm in. Now wtf do I do with my hands?
  9. Nobody else bothered by the announcement of a 2-fight contract? Something about it feels off to me. I understand the division is shit right now and there's really nothing else to do since I guess Joshua/Wilder is never happening? But announcing both fights seems to me like it will ensure a safe fight for both of these fighters (neither of whom are brawlers in the first place). Expecting a huge show and buildup, but not nearly as much for the fight. Fury UD12 and everyone goes home with their bellies full and ready to do it again in 6 months.
  10. Their ads are literally the only reason I've caught up on this thread. I've never been inside a Fry's, never will, and was not really a geek growing up (definitely not into building computers) but for some reason middle/high school me would read those ads and just daydream. "The CD-RW drives are how much there??" "I can get an 16GB flash drive for that?!??" Place just seemed awesome.
  11. Well shit, I was kinda satisfied with my position at 5.26, but might fuck around with a bit more if it dips again.
  12. That 3 might've been the first good look he's had and he bricked. The rest has been good defense so far.
  13. HELL YEAH WHAT A GREAT START. FUCK A JUMP SHOT EVERYBODY JUST CONTINUOUSLY DRIVE INTO THE PACKED PAINT.
  14. Just because I haven't seen his name mentioned in the past 2 pages (I'm sure it was mentioned during the game)...... but Jase Febres. Alright then young man. Good to see you back.
  15. This actually seems normal to me. We can never seem to get all our talented players to have a good game on the same night. Every game is one or two of the guards showing out, then a game like Ramey's last night. There was a few performances like that from Drew this year as well (1-8 type shooting nights). If they actually learned to play off each other and if it was possible within the makeup of our team for everyone to eat, we could have been that 1 seed we briefly dreamed about in December.
  16. Embarrassing. Greg Brown too. Another 5-star one and done who is going to leave 0 legacy at Texas. Just more promo for our program's lottery picks. Getting out-hustled and it's supposed to be Shaka's MO.
  17. Patty was getting abused, and I swear this is the 3rd game in a row that I've seen Patty dribble the ball off his fucking foot. What the fuck mate, have some shame, you're a fucking point guard (supposedly). Poetl with a big step back last night. I have noticed the progress, he's becoming great on defense, but that shit on the boards was horrendous.
  18. Almost full health tonight. Only missing Devin's spot minutes. Let's see what we got. I expect a lot of Keldon/D White/DJ on Doncic.
  19. Now 6 episodes deep into "Warrior". Cinemax show now on HBO Max. Pretty solid B+ stuff. Every episode has both sex and martial arts violence, and I can't pretend to be above that. Just enough storyline to keep me engaged in the next episode. SIAP.
  20. The squeeze ain't squoze yet. I'm finally green on AMC. Not in on GME but I've been keeping an eye on it. No idea what's going to happen but diamond hands and all that, not selling. I'm finally green on AMC too. Bought before last week's dip and had to wait it out. Definitely not waiting too long like last time. NK looking good. Apparently some merger news combined with some promising Stage 3 trials going on brought it comfortably back over $30.
  21. Crazy that losing the striking battle for the round and getting one takedown to get yourself a breather and just press weight on top of your opponent is a "huge round" for you. Jan is dog tired.
  22. Borrrriiiinnnggg. I respect tf out of Khabib, but don't want to watch another single fight of this dude climbing the ranks to be the next him.
  23. My first thought when I read the banner was "AY DIOS MIO, YA VOY!" I thought it said Calling all Surly Mexicans

    Vinyl

    "Boston" shooting up my personal favorite vinyl list, with a rocket. Another classic 70s album that I was never put on to; found it in the RGV for a few bucks. Knew "More Than a Feeling" but didn't really appreciate the Foreplay/Long Time until sitting down with the vinyl. And Smokin while listenin' to Smokin.
  25. Nvm the age is right there, stupid.
