    Giannis will be gone by then, I'm sure it won't matter.  Imagine trying to offload a 62m expiring contract lol

    OKC is waiting by the phone and will gladly accept your 2040 and 2042 first round picks.

  2. Awesome episode and +1 on they better give us an hour long finale. 
     

    All these Disney+ series limit the viewers to 6 or 8 episodes (I guess due to budget?). If that’s the case, condense the first 3 or 4 episodes of story building into into 1.5 or 2 episodes and give the fans more episodes like the final 2 of every season. We have got painfully little Thrawn and Ezra, and have to tie off Ahsoka-Sabine relationship, Hera political bullshit, maybe Ahsoka coming to peace with Anakin, and whatever Baylan is up to all while actually concluding the season (or series?) and stopping Thrawn or see him return to set things in motion for the First Order. Would’ve loved more episodes on the back end, same as Mando S3 and Andor.

    Didn't they go to the monitor on TV? Maybe they were reviewing something else? 

    Craig Way said the refs told Sark that the spot of the ball is not challengeable. WTF? Isn’t every TD or first down review a challenge of where the ball was spotted?

  4. I think Filoni made her look too young in the first flashback. In the cartoon she was a teenager. The clone wars lasted about 3 years, and at the end of it she defeated Darth Maul. In last nights episode, she looked about 8 years old.

    I don’t think he’s asking an unreasonable question or “white knighting” a rapist. I’ve been a criminal lawyer for 18 years, as both a prosecutor in the child sex crimes division and a defense attorney. Likely, there was no hard evidence or corroborating proof. A jury can convict someone based on the testimony of one witness with no other evidence required. The jury simply has to believe that witness is credible and believe their testimony proves the guilt of the defendant beyond a reasonable doubt. I’ve seen it happen many times.  It can feel powerfully redemptive for a victim/witness and equally frustrating and disheartening for a defendant (and his lawyers) who adamantly maintains his innocence. 

    Agree it wasn’t white knighting IMO. I’m a non-lawyer with similar questions. I always thought one person’s word against another with no additional evidence was difficult to meet the “beyond a reasonable doubt” threshold for a criminal case, but in a situation like this would likely lead to civil suit victory (or more likely a settlement). His first criminal trial resulted in a hung jury, with 10/12 jurors saying not guilty. The case got a lot of publicity, it doesn’t sound like there was much if any new evidence, but this time it flips 12/12 say guilty. Makes you scared in case it was ever you that got falsely accused of something how fast your life and liberty could be over with the wrong lawyer or jury.

  6. I rewatched World Between Worlds and the Rebels finale last night. I forgot that Palpatine had the Jedi temple wall from Lothal moved onto Thrawn’s Star destroyer when he tried to seduce Ezra to open the portal again and join his parents. The wall kind of crumbled, but I wonder if Ahsoka and Anakin can open it up from their side and just pop out on Thrawn’s ship in the other galaxy. They might as well open up a portal at street level of Coruscant year 18BBY to catch a falling Mace Windu, and then maybe grab a couple more old Jedi before beating the shit out of Thrawn.

    Why did they cast a (possibly chubby) Indian guy to play Ezra, and why did they not de-age him for the recording that Sabine watches? Ezra was ~16 at the end of Rebels and this video looks like a 30 year old computer science postdoc that enjoys playing d&d at his friend’s mom’s house.

  8. If Ahsoka is so righteous to sacrifice Ezra to avoid another war, she should have no problem using one of those world between world portals and hopping into Coruscant during Episode III and stopping Anakin’s fall, the republic/Jedi fall, and creation of the Empire. Or she could just go back and kill baby Sheev Palpatine on the toilet. FIN

    Remember Dusty said you wouldn't throw a rookie quarterback out there either

    And nothing can possibly happen to change Dusty’s mind on that. But when I root for a sprained ankle or a hamstring strain I’m the asshole. Even brought that’s literally the only practical solution to make the right decision happen.
