  1. What do you think is happening in NYC?
  2. Just now catching up on this thread (which started off shit, and then took an interesting turn, and now is back to meh). I continue to be confused by the suggestion that music of the early aughts itself is reflective of a shift to passivity in society. 650 is a great poster and I'm sure knows more about music than I do (and is older, so lived through the supposed shift), so I'm not dismissing it out of hand. It just seems an odd connection to make when the 80s and 90s are littered with very, very popular and important bands who were sad, woe is me saps either lyrically, in tone or in overall vibes. Obviously the Smiths, the Cure, Joy Division, etc. Sonic Youth to some degree. Pearl Jam and Nirvana have some of the biggest sad sap, feel sorry for yourself lyrics around, albeit presented with a veneer of aggression? My avatar released Creep in 92. Elliott Smith. The list goes on and on and on. REM wrote a don't fucking kill yourself song in 1992 as one of the biggest rock bands in the world. I guess my point is that even if you were to concede that (a) there was some societal shift towards passivity, and (b) the music and/or bands of the early aughts were themselves "passive" (whatever that actually means), it seems to be more coincidental that correlated.
  3. I really liked the first one. I enjoyed parts of this this, but ultimately a let down.
  4. Yeah, they showed him on the screen. fun game. Cool arena. Hali too good
  5. Are places like Harwood Arms or Jugged Hair worth going to outside of the Sunday Roast? I’m going to London for my first family (not work) trip, but arriving late on Sunday so will miss the roast this time.
  6. never a doubt! Will be in indy for game 4 in blue
  7. As a Knicks fan I am desperately hoping to see Scott Foster in Indiana for games 2 and 3. Come on Adam Silver, pull your best David Stern impression!
  8. Probably not a coincidence that it “feels” like a lot of their looks have a foot or more of space. Not sure if it’s bad defensive or great offense, but they are getting great looks and knocking them down. Both these teams getting stroked by OKC.
  9. Seeming like a sweep
  10. Have the Pacers missed a shot since the 4th quarter Game 1. Just fucking insane
  11. Find anything good in bed stuy?
  12. I’m taking a bunch of clients over to Indy for game 4. I really need the Knicks not to be down 0-3 in that game.
  13. Towns and OG both missed FTs
