  1. I was driving home one weekend in college from Austin to San Antonio. I was super hungover and as I was cruising down 35 I started to feel the rumblings. Shit was about to go down, literally, and time was not on my side. I knew the rest area was up on the right in a couple of miles so I start driving like a maniac weaving in and out of traffic at probably 100+ MPH in an attempt to get there before completely shitting all over myself and ruining the interior of my car. I barely make it in time, park, and go sprinting into the restroom. I wasn't even sure I turned off my engine. Thankfully, there isn't one soul in there. I have the entire disgusting place to myself. Now, the bathroom there has zero privacy. There are no real stalls, presumably to prevent random gay hookups. So all they have is a few metal toilets attached to the wall separated by small approximately 2' x 3' plank, but there are no doors and if there is anybody else in there, you are in full view. I imagine there is more privacy in a prison shitter. But desperate times call for desperate measures, so I scramble to the shitter in the furthest corner and completely let loose of my bowels. I'm sweating profusely, bent over in agony, and excruciatingly and noisily shooting liquid straight out of my asshole. At this time precise time, a tour bus unloads about 40 people to make a pit stop. They start queuing up about 4 deep to use the bathrooms as I'm dying on a stainless steel throne completely exposed, now with a live studio audience for the worst shit of my life. At first I was like... okay, you can do this. Just don't make eye contact with anyone. If you're lucky, you will actually die right here and now. But then, I realized, fuck it. If I'm going to be this vulnerable and uncomfortable, I might as well take a few of these sumbitches with me. So I start making eye contact with anyone who has the guts to look back at me, and staring their asses down. Shockingly, nobody really wanted any part of me, either. After what seemed like about a month (but was probably less than a minute), I finish up, wipe my ass with government supplied zero ply toilet paper, and try to stare down every last bastard on my way out of there. Worst shit ever. I think if I had to do it over again, I would have shit myself, drove the rest of the way home sitting in my own liquid feces and just sold the car.
  2. There's some contact with the body, but it's really after the block. To me, that's a no call every time on an otherwise outstanding defensive play that gets fans out of their seats. There used to be a lot of no calls, especially on block/charges. And it was okay. Incidental contact was allowed. A defender was allowed to try to make a defensive play by moving his feet and getting in front of the offensive player, and the offensive player was allowed to try to make an offensive play and get to the basket. He either made a shot or he didn't, and there was no whistle. The fans would boo for a second, but nobody got too bent out of shape and the game went on. Now it seems like they have to blow their whistle every fucking time there's any contact. There was a certain understanding that the refs were going to let some of the shit go. I don't get why they can't go back to that. It's killing the game.
  3. Collins was -27 last night. Wemby was +10. He’s regressed so badly this season. I was so wrong about him.
  4. This game is entertaining as hell. Would be nice to see them make some plays down the stretch and pull this one out. Gsg
  5. I think people will get voter fatigue at some point. Like, really? We're going to give Vic DPOY for the 7th straight time? Ben Wallace and Mutombo each got 4. Gobert and Dwight Howard got 3. Ridiculous that Tim Duncan never won it.
  6. RIP Apollo.

  8. The league has a problem with the 65 game rule. It has a problem with contracts being tied to post-season awards. It obviously has a problem with load management. I don't know how any of this gets fixed. Tyrese Halliburton is going to lose out on $40 million if he misses three more games this season and is ineligible to be all-NBA. What's worse, somebody else is probably going to be eligible for max money who did play 65 games and didn't deserve it. Some of the NBA writers who vote for the post season awards are even giving pushback because they feel weird about the impact of their votes. All of this is a mess.
  9. Dumars was fantastic. Knock down shooter, all league defender, and clutch. Really smart player. He was just about the only likeable guy on the Bad Boy Pistons. If I had to pick any shooting guard other than Jordan for one game during that era, I'd probably take him. Other guys had better careers, but Dumars was just so solid. Drexler was a physical marvel but just didn't have it mentally. Jordan completely mindfucked him at the Olympics. Maybe I would have liked Clyde more if he ever learned how to dribble without looking at the ball. It's kind of amazing that during Jordan's prime, there really weren't very many great two guards around the league. Richmond was also really good. Sprewell had a short run where he was a beast. Reggie Miler was annoying but also really good. He would be amazing in today's game.
  10. You hyping up some generic burrito chain from California in a San Antonio thread is so perfectly on brand for you. There is a zero percent chance this place is even as good as the Donut Shop that is what, one mile away? For fucks sake drive another 3 miles down Fred and go to Garcias.
  11. Good question. I looked it up and found: The 2024 season will be the first year the SEC will play a schedule without divisional competition since 1991. The top two teams in the league standings based on winning percentage will play in the 33rd SEC Football Championship Game in Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta on Saturday, December 7. I didn't find anything about tie breakers, but I will go out on a limb and assume that it will not involve pretending games between two conference members never happened. It's likely going to be a problem, but the playoffs being the ultimate goal mitigates some of it. There are always going to be discrepancies and complaints, even when they had two divisions in the Big 12 that were not even close to being competitively even. In the big picture I think it's less critical for the SEC. You can almost be assured that both teams in the CCG will be in the playoff, and that game will probably be for a de facto bye for the first round. But the Big 12 isn't going to be afforded that luxury. And when they have games between two teams in the same conference that don't count toward the conference championship.... man, you are just asking for it. I'm here for it, both for the potential chaos and also the egg on the face.
  12. Totally agree. If they called the playoffs like regular season, we wouldn't be having this discussion. Most of the games are played around the 105-110 point mark, which to me is the right balance between good offense and good defense. This is remarkable, to me:

  14. Have they announced how the tiebreakers work? I know the Big 12 typically doesn't like to manipulate reveal it's math on such matters until championship week, but it's going to be hilarious if one team gets into the CCG over another despite having a head to head loss that doesn't count in the tie breaker. There is going to be an epic amount of pussy rubbing if a playoff bid is determined because of it.
  15. I don't see the Nets parting with Bridges under just about any circumstances. They already turned down (allegedly) 4 FRP for him last year. They don't own their own FRP for a few years so tanking does them no good. They have quite a few FRP coming to them down the road from Phoenix, Philly and Dallas, so how many more mid to late FRP move the needle for them? I don't see their motivation to move the main guy they are trying to build around. They can ride out Ben Simmons albatross of a contract for one more season, then they have basically a cleared out cap to go free agent hunting in the summer of 2025.
  16. That poor dude from Arkansas obviously wasn't prepared for the line of scrimmage physicality of the Big 12.

  19. Nothing against Navarro, but we went from this in season 1: To this in season 4:
  20. Trade deadline in 9 days. I think this interesting, for a lot of reasons. If the season ended today and the lottery shook out by the numbers, OKC would have 3 FRP. TOR would have 3 FRP plus the first pick in the second round. POR would have 2 FRP in the top 10. NOLA and NY would each have two FRP. And this is considered to be a weak draft. So many teams of the teams that would be looking to make a playoff push are encumbered by the Stepien Rule. I gotta think OKC is going to be active toward the deadline. They are at the top of the standings, have a screaming need for another big, and they don't have the throughput to take on 3 more rookies next year. They have 11 guys (not including their 3 two-way players) with three or fewer years of experience on their roster right now.
  21. I don't know if a 10-37 team can actually have a bad loss, but that was a bad loss. It doesn't make a shit in the grand scheme of things but hopefully they learned something from it.

  23. Love that place. I contend it isn't as good since they expanded and the one on Redland Road and 1604 isn't as good as the original, but they have damn good food. Some of the best refried beans I've ever had, too. I can't imagine how much unhealthy shit is packed into them.
