The death penalty will never be doled out again after SMU. As an SMU grad, it’s rage-inducing to see Penn State, Baylor, Louisville, UNC and now Maryland all commit far worse infractions and crimes than SMU and barely get punished.

When the rule was imposed, there were 20,000 bikes in Dallas. They were everywhere - clogging sidewalks, rusting in ponds, in the middle of neighborhood roads, etc. Both Lime and Byrd are still here and Lime is applying for a permit this week. The government asked the companies to better monitor their programs

I honestly can’t believe you’re this angry and conceited over an 82 year old football player.

How dare he move jobs to a place with significantly better co-workers and a winning track record! He left a place where his best teammate was an insane-to-the-point-of-recklessness maniac for a culture built on sharing the workload. the benefits are way better and his new city is 100x better.

Also it should never be overlooked that he let fucking Oklahoma to move to a city where he’s 30 minutes from the beach and 3 hours from world-class skiing.

Rankings are built by playing tournaments and are on a rolling schedule. She didn’t play for over a year and thus lost all of her results while other played. If you looked at the rankings before the 2017 US Open, her ranking would still be relatively high because it would contain the points from making the semis of

The ranking system is based on rolling results year-after-year. If you don’t play for a year, you lose all the points you earned from the prior year. Serena didn’t play for a year and thus lost all of those points. She is the GOAT and will earn those points back as she plays more. She shouldn’t be #1 though - having

Disclaimer: I think Chris Paul is overrated and that many other players could’ve at least taken one of those Clippers teams to a West Final but don’t @ me.

This is weak. If the Rockets make just 14% of those 27 3s, they probably win. That’s 4 out of 27. By a team that, for my count, has at least 5 roster spots filled by guys whose only offensive skill is shooting 3s.

But so much of the modern NBA is based on creating contact with your defender - i was more bummed out by seeing 5 straight 4th quarter possessions end in a foul created by the offensive player. I know Harden murdered Wes Johnson on a crossover earlier this year, but for all of his fancy dribbling most of his points

I know this might shock you, but most people don’t enjoy seeing players score 1/4 to 1/3 of their points from the free throw line. If you don’t see how people are annoyed by the Dribble-for-20-seconds-then-drive-and-throw-your-body-into-a-defender-to-make-sure-you-get-a-free-throw-regardless-of-shot-quality routine

Holy Capitalization

Love finished with 2 fouls - one in the middle of the 1st and one at the end of the 1st. Conventional coaching would have him pulled maybe for the first 3-4 minutes of the 2nd and would not at all impact the entire second half.

The Cowboys have 33 cheerleaders, which is high for the league. If they paid them $50,000 and assume benefits and other shit cost $7,000 per employee, the total cost would be around $1.8 M. The cowboys will spend about $180 M on their roster this season.

I plan on having kids within the next 5 years. I will teach them to drive because driving yourself will be the main form of transportation 21 years from now.

Bullying is bad and we should support measures that try to stop it, but millions of kids around the world are bullied relentlessly and don’t come to school to kill 10 people.

Simple solution here is to pass laws on gun storage. If your gun is stolen and you don’t report this before a crime is committed, you get charged with the same crime as the perpetrator. If your gun is stolen 3 times in 5 years, even if reported, you get banned from legal ownership for 10.

Hot take - Chris Paul is the master of a good box score and is otherwise slightly above average. He will never make an NBA Finals and, at this point, is on the downward slope of his career.
