Yeah, this is exactly what I’m seeing come down the pipe too. Even doctors will eventually have to compete with “Google Health”.

It was pretty obvious from watching the game that the foul discrepancy (and you hit on this a bit) was because the Bucks were much more aggressive driving to the basket, especially because they have Giannis (who, oddly, from my amateur eye, has yet to get the superstar treatment regularly).

FINALLY! GenZ is starting to be blamed for shit going wrong in industries, we’re almost out of the woods fellow millennials!

Sounds like a regular old-fashioned Dunk-a-Thon to me

Driving new cars be like:

I don’t need a pickup every day. I don’t even need one every week, perhaps once every month or two, aside from the 8 trips a year I need to haul plywood, or a fridge or crap to the dump, I want a four seater that does not kill me everytime I stop for gas. Previously my answer would have been a small or midsize SUV…

If they tossed in a 2.0t and it could tow 4000lbs or so that would make it soft compared to things like a gladiator/taco/ranger/ even a ridgeline etc but honestly i’d be more interested in this. It’d be better on gas, have a nicer interior and be better the 95% of the time you weren’t doing truck-stuff. It’s plenty of…

No one still thinks the Sixers are the favorites in the East - maybe in October, or in the immediate afterglow of one of the big trades, sure, but not right now. Once 82 games were played, everyone understands that Milwaukee (and Toronto, assuming Saturday was a blip rather than a regression to their typical playoff…

As a long-time Bucks fan, I fully understand the purgatory that is being an 8-seed, first-round loser.  You’re not getting a good draft pick, and you’re not doing shit in the postseason.

If you ever see this face, know that everyone else on the court is in grave danger.

Capitalism? You mean the system that allows consumers to tell companies what they want through commerce? People want the cheapest flights possible, and the option for regular and also first class seats won’t go away. Capitalism simply means you have the freedom to buy or sell something from/to anyone you choose, and…

United flies direct from Tampa to San Francisco, you don’t have to take Delta. Also, hub and spoke is not new and was huge in the good old days. There are more flights to more places. 

And one of the nice features of capitalism is, if you don’t like it, you don’t have to pay for it.

The alternative is not having replay reviews at all. Like it used to be. 

I’ve always appreciated that you’ll usually see NBA refs, when looking at a replay where a guy loses the ball out of bounds because he was hacked (so the offensive player touched it last because the defensive guy didn’t even touch the ball) will just leave the ball with the offense. College refs explicitly are not…

A long time ago I heard a soccer announcer say “players win games, coaches lose them, and referees ruin them.” I think that’s particularly applicable here.

i think the best way to do replay is to institute a 30-second cap. if you can’t figure it out in the window then the call stands. you can fix the total fuck ups without it turning into what we saw last night

Really? He always struck me as “more breadsticks.”

Given the MTA’s debt obligations...this does look like a mighty appealing way to get the money to pay them down without changing anything, doesn’t it.
