Chicago resident here, and I’d say what I feel are the three coolest neighborhoods in the city (no particular order) are Logan Square, Hyde Park, & Pilsen. Each one has cultural landmarks, really cool art, and great food and those three things are what I enjoy being around most in my free time.

I can’t tell which player it is, but far right in the picture above’s suit + shorts outfit (sans leather pants, plus sneakers & sunglasses) is way better.

I’m a big journaler/note taker, so my good friends understand that’s just how I remember things that I think are important & it’s never been an issue when I reach into my bag during a conversation to write down a quote or piece of information they shared.

Isn’t this Fultz’s body breaking down too?

Similar background. 5 years of Big Ten football & I experience a lot of the same anxiety. I’m really appreciative of the opportunities football provided me, but holy shit, the things it took from me too... There’s learned behavior developed from it that’s proven really helpful and advantageous for me in the real world

As a current broke person, the amount of money I would accept to switch seats is embarrassingly low & I’ll keep that number to myself. But if I was in a position where I had first-class, Paris to Dallas money, the minimum I’d accept is probably $2K (that number is probably too low, I know).

“Novice reporter” that has bylines for NY Times, GQ, NY Mag, Vanity Fair, Smithsonian, Sports Illustrated...

This is so, so good.

Haha, my significant other doesn’t know much about hockey so as the team was getting ready to start hoisting the trophy I turned to her & was like, “You’re about to hear a lot of ‘Fuck yeah!’ ‘Holy fuck!’ & ‘Let’s fucking go!’ on live national TV.

Bought tickets to Panorama Music Festival in New York w/ my partner a couple years ago after we’d finished a couple bottles of wine. Had no plans on how to get there or where we were staying, but buying the tickets spontaneously forced us to actually plan out a vacation & it turned out to be an amazing time.

Co sign everything you said. Former D1 football player here & we used to always tuck a sweat towel into the front, side, or back of our shorts to wipe ourselves down in between sets or sprints so it’s just become a habit I still do regardless of what gym attire I’m wearing that day.

I learned formally in an elementary school class. I lived in three different states for elementary school, so I can’t remember which school system, but learning in a formal setting like that was huge. On a scale from 1-5, with 1 being poor and 5 being excellent, I’d rate my adult typing skills as a 5 thanks to that

Thank you for the insight & it sounds like you’re raising your kids in a wonderful, embracing environment!

You know the Nets traded Crabbe on Friday, right?

There’s no real comparison, but the best way to think about what this would look like is imagine that fans were allowed to sit along the touch & goal lines. Then imagine a player chasing down a long pass or loose ball & sliding to keep the ball in play during a UCL final, & in the process making contact with a fan

No.

I don’t think he’s saying he needs to add more hell-bent mid-range chucking, but rather a more reliant jumper. Kawhi’s mid-range game is a prime example. He wasn’t a shooter when he first entered the league, but he’s built his jumper to the point you have to respect it as a threat & it opens up other parts of the

Yup, I’m almost certain he’s a teen. Everything about his build, attire (baseball hat, glove [!], basketball shorts, bright socks), & flexibility scream teenager.

Sit in the bleachers or be wealthy is not the correct take, buddy.

This is pure madness.
