    Dray out for the rest of the season seems the best punishment for him. The Warriors can't and won't control him; the NBA needs to.


    At this rate, I’m expecting a big public freak out that ends with a TMZ headline and several thousand dollars in property damage. Think Barret Robbins or Alonzo Spellman-level bad.

  3. You can't really replace the best three-point shooter ever (Steph), but you can replace the diminishing returns of the supporting cast around him.

     

    Klay's decline is definitely troubling, especially after the contract talks stalled out earlier this year. While I don't think he'd leave the Warriors, leaving him behind to rebuild a younger core sure sounds appealing.

    I love Draymond. Dude was the glue for four championship squads. Even I think this :censored: is getting tiresome. The league should suspend him for half of the season at this point  

     

    It's just depressing to see how trashy he's become the past two seasons. Like, how hard is it not to be slapping and punching players? I get that he might be "in the right" or "protecting the other players," but this trash is excessive. No suspension is going to fix those deep-seeded issues.

     

    It's probably time for the Warriors to rebuild, given the state of the team right now. Ah well, getting four titles out of a championship window means I can't complain about the team for at least 15-20 years.

    But that's not the "Giants Way".

     

    Since when has SF needed big name bats to win? They won 3 titles just picking dudes like Juan Uribe and Pat Burrell off the streets,

     

    Well, last time the Giants went for big names (albeit in pitching), we had the whole Bobby Evans era where every signing and trade turned putrid almost immediately. Remember trying to give money to Cueto, Samardzija, and Melancon?

    Speaking of that, @Sport instituted a ten year moratorium on complaining about your team after winning a title (good rule). Giants are in year nine, and boy do I have some bitching to do. Can’t wait. 

     

     

    If it's a rapid succession of titles like the Giants had, that moratorium is a little more in flux. But yeah, a decade moratorium works.

    He gonna selfishly hold onto Trout until it's too late and they can get nothing in return for him, like they did with Ohtani?

     

    Mike Trout is already on the back end of his career and very injury-prone. You would never get that much for him now and his legacy is now that the Angels utterly wasted his talent and he was never competitive or brash enough to escape that situation. Complacency means he's an all-time great who only has MVP trophies to show for it.

    Still think a salary floor is more important than a salary cap: Something that'll force all teams to at least field a competitive roster.

     

    With this crop of owners? A salary floor will probably never happen, even though it's far more important an issue than growing player salaries.

  7. I’m just imagining Tomlin being pressured into resigning, if only so they can keep the “we don’t fire head coaches” charade going.

     

    Funny enough, Tomlin is only one part of a much larger set of problems that have plagued the Steelers for years. Like their QB rotation being and a negative organization culture. Watch them go 8-9 though, blame the results on injuries and Matt Canada, and continue as if the core isn’t in decay.

    Honestly I'm not ranting. This is just something to pass the time while on zoom calls.

     

    I care about justice and can't believe any sports fan supports what is clearly a business decision going out of the way to spit on competitive fairness.

     


    I also care about the injustice of an undefeated team getting shafted, but I also don’t commit the energy to effort posts anymore. Maybe I was being a little too jestful.

     

    Adding in Bama just made me wish for the fall of college football, the elimination of national champions in the sport, and for people to disengage with a truly rancid sports product.

     

    As I said, revenue-earning college sports are the worst ones we have.

    Explain. 

     

     


    Long-winded ranting and a growing madness regarding the bizarrely-blessed nature of a person/thing. Sometimes it’s better to back away and realize that it’s an entirely optional part of your life.

     

    College football is the most awful sport we have for a variety of reasons that are well-documented (and I can’t quite say here because forum rules). The sooner it dies, the better.

     

    Also, the one dude complaining about the NIL and transfer portal? Those are good additions to the game. Anything to give the players any kind of above-table compensation/agency is a good thing.

    Is there nothing in between? 


    Gen X, according to five seconds of Google, was ‘65-‘80. Boomers were ‘46-‘64 and Millennials were ‘81-‘96.

     

    There need to be sub-generations, because there’s a lot of separation between people born in the first and second halves of each of those generations. Like, I’m firmly a Millennial (born 1993), but I didn’t experience things like Nirvana being an active band or the Eagles using kelly green. I believe what I am is a “Zillennial,” not unlike the “Generation Jones” that marked the ‘60s born boomers and Gen X.

  12. Here’s an idea:  no more national champions. You get conference titles and bowls as reward for winning a conference. That’s it.

     

    Every method for finding a national champion is bafflingly stupid and we are better off without them.

    In Belichick's defense, he coached the '94  Browns to an 11-5 record and a playoff win over...you guessed it...New England with Vinnie Testaverde at QB. That has to count for something.


    I go for the idea that Brady/Belichick was an equal partnership at first, but Brady overtook his coach in significance somewhere around 2007-10.

    Or maybe we’re all just still insecure about their confidence? 😛


    That too! It takes a lot of confidence to build a hype factory. 
     

    I’m just rooting for Jim Harbaugh to go back to the NFL and stink at this point.
