  1. ESPN radio was in full spin mode this morning. - “Dallas deserved the first pick because they were trying. The Jazz and Wizards were trying to be a joke and they got what they got.” - “San Antonio shouldn’t trade Castle for Giannis, but the Rockets should trade Amen for him.” Just breathtakingly stupid takes.
  2. I would either trade up for Tre or Fears or package the pick in a bigger deal. Stick and pick would be unwise. Pretty goddamned obvious that Silver and the Mavs traded some horses. I don’t like the Adelsons, but butt fucking new owners with distasteful businesses pisses me off. Crane was investigated for war profiteering, so that son of bitch Selig makes us move to the AL to approve the deal.
  3. Content is king. Unfortunately, I think it’s Philly or SA.
  4. STFB is pretty great. It should have made the new BTAC lineup, not EHT.
  5. Simmons infamously hates Star Wars, but I heard he was converted after this episode. He was born in 1969. Absolutely insane that he didn’t see this movie in theaters and fall in love as a 8 year old.
  6. I think they need to eliminate the couple/family goes to dinner and the cast does goody shit sketches. They’re in almost every episode and they almost never work. It’s a disservice to Goggins to have him play a straight man dad while Brown Yang flounders. Goggins has nothing to do in that format/sketch.
  7. If you want to watch yet another autopsy on the Vietnam War, Turning Point from 2025 is pretty good.
  8. Silver has some hard decisions coming this week. Does he send another love letter to Pop, bail out Philly, or make Utah or DC relevant?
  9. In the past, I would watch Pulp Fiction and Boogie Nights as my late night movies. I’m not sure Jackie Brown is better than those movies, but it’s a lot more mellow when you’re trying to unwind.
  10. Shout out to Cecily Strong. Her Jeanine Pirro impression is probably the best on SNL in the last 20 years. She nails Pirro’s voice, cadence, and functional alcoholism. I laughed my ass during the cold open. I hope they consider bringing Cecily back if she’s interested. It wouldn’t be without precedent and she’s younger than Kenan.
  11. Rian Johnson is a tough hang. I love him for Poker Face and Knives Out, while also deeply despising him for Last Jedi. I think murder-mysteries are his lane. As long as I know what’s he’s good at, I suppose we can be friends.
  12. If I’m in Please Don’t Destroy, I’m probably looking for another job. They cut their film after rehearsal last week, and another short made it in the show tonight. A couple animated films have made the show recently as well. Off the top of my head, they’re in 1 out of 5 episodes. The boys are way too talented and funny to live with that.
  13. Don’t love the format. You have basically comedy Daniel Day Lewis and you use him in basically 2 sketches before Update. Padilla has the housewive/mom role down cold. She might have staying power.
  14. Goggins is killing. Matt was hilarious. Of course they wasted Rockwell on a stupid Wickline song.
  15. It’s a medical miracle LMJ pitched again in the majors. I believe he’s the first person in history to come back from those 3 procedures. That said, this is about what I expected from him.
  16. Amen+Flagg would be a small guard’s worst fucking nightmare. We deserve it after this Curry bullshit.
  17. Haywire is pretty nice. Food is good too. Reminds me of Berg’s The Ranch at the HLSR, but it’s open all year. Maybe a must for yankee visitors.
  18. Season 2 is pretty great. Cop Kid Nights would have been a great show.
  19. A timeless classic, that is unfortunately very tough to find these days.
  20. Good for a few laughs. “BV is an unbelievable coach.” “Nagy extends the life of the coaching staff.”
  21. GSW needs 1 at home to get to Game 6. Surely Jimmy has a 40 point in him. His 3’s unfortunately started falling in Game 7 against the Rockets and he was already shooting 10+ free throw a game. Ant is still developing his taste for blood, I think Game 6 happens.
  22. While gripped by the Thursday scaries, I’m enjoying some JD Single Malt. Y’all keep walking by it on the shelf.
  23. Yeah LA, New York, and Miami is superstar boilerplate bullshit. I miss Woj.
  24. Big Drive-Away Dolls fan?
