  1. MPJ is an atrocious defender - I have no idea where you're getting it from that he isn't or that Cam Johnson is worse. They are pretty comparable scorers and MPJ can shoot the shit out of the ball but Cam should get a Jokic bump. Cam is just a straight up better player in general. It's a huge get for Denver.
  2. Dude - the league financials over the past 20 years or whatever don't matter. Like they literally don't fucking matter at all. Do you understand how CBAs work?
  3. Depends on the golfer but either the Masters or the US Open. I get everyone gets all romantic about The Open and the Euros talk it up but those two are the two premier tournaments imo followed by the British and then the PGA and The Players round it out.
  4. Correct. And Trevino had the triple double which is exceedingly rare.
  5. Congrats Scottiford. Gets a chance to pick up the slam starting next year. Bryson with 65/68/64 to close. Shouldn't have shot that 78 Thursday 😐
  6. I start my comment with "the t-shirt thing is fucking embarassing" and that's the question you ask me?
  7. Shitty news. I now have us winning the World Series in 6 games instead of 5 over the Dodgers.
  8. I'm not going to directly engage in any of the other various arguments Derka is getting into here - and I have mixed opinions on all of it - but this is not true. Shane blew up then he got absorbed into the Rogan borg and I am very confident that I have that timeline correct. That said - he hasn't really needed Rogan for anything - and among Rogan and Tony Hinchcliffe's crew Shane is the most marketable and enjoying the greatest PUBLIC commercial success of any of them including Joe and Tony (because Rogan obviously makes stupid money behind the scenes...). If anything Shane elevates their whole operation. Kind of like Adam Ray. He is an elite stand-up, his podcast produces a ton of funny clips, and he has this All-American, aw-shucks vibe to him that is non-threatening enough to get him gigs like hosting the ESPYs. All of his success - however - all of it - mainly stems from how killer he is on stage. You can like him or his comedy or not - but that is a fact.
  9. I mean yeah he's leading by 4 strokes. And it's 6 strokes over the one guy who could miraculously challenge him - granted Rory has chased him down before - but that was a different Scottie. I don't see any way he doesn’t bag it tomorrow.
  10. Smart is completely washed. He's played 54 games the past two seasons TOTAL. I have no idea what LA expects to get out of him. Granted they also signed Ayton. They're just throwing shit at the wall.
  11. The t-shirt thing is fucking embarassing - I would have at least worded it differently or more tastefully - but I don't think they are totally unfounded in advocating for themselves during the infancy of a league that appears to be poised to make real money in the near future. Of course there are going to be a bunch of dumb takes made because they are female jocks at the end of the day - but you don't want to agree to a CBA under the logic of "well the league isn't even operating in the black yet" when it should be obvious that it will eventually - and likely sometime soon. I mean - I'm pretty fucking sure that the Indiana Fever aren't losing money this season. There's a lot of moving parts and grievances and uncertainty because we've never had a women's sports league become mainstream the way that the WNBA is trending. Women's tennis has been pretty big for awhile but it's a niche country-club audience and most people don't give a fuck. That's really the only female athletic competition (outside of the Olympics) that has seen a similar limelight. UFC too, maybe (but neither are team sports).
  12. Hahaha what a bunch of cunts.
  13. This Dodgers/Brewers game has been super fun in the background while I play guitar. Two solo-shots by LA B8 to make it 8-7 Brewers. I thought Ohtani had that last one for a second to tie it up - it was a deeeeep flyout.
  14. @jimmyjazz what this thread could use is some really shitty Texas basketball takes. Maybe you can drop us some of your knowledge.
  15. I don't care about the shitty thread that you started. You defending @Gil Bang is fucking hysterical.
  16. Or you could read your own fucking thread that you started and quit being such a retard. Get a life, dude. Don't you have a wife and kids? Fucking loser.
  17. What am I gatekeeping? Quit being such a spaz.
  18. Who gives a shit it's $14 million. The PR and merch takes care of that overnight.
  19. I heard Keith Moon got unruly a couple of times while staying at reputable hotel chains.
  20. I assume they're assholes they play music for a living.
  21. "Lulz"? That's fucking awesome. And they have a nice little team and a good coach. He could maybe help build something going forward for them.
  22. I would never pay money to go see Coldplay but if you can't get behind Speed of Sound then you're kidding yourself.
  23. Rory sputtering a bit but a fucking brilliant chip on 13 to stay 1 under. Maybe he can get one back down the stretch here.
  24. Peacock has some absolute douchenozzles calling this.
