Is it just my computer or do you not actually have the original tweet embedded in the article? Seems like that, or at least a description and quote, should come between these two paragraphs.

Probably?

Yup. And he’s one of the worst players in the league right now (though not from a pure athleticism standpoint)..

A popular, longstanding local place in Louisville serves this exact style (maybe slightly thicker crust than you describe, but spot on in terms of square cut, extent of of cheese and toppings, and big hunks of incredible sausage) and dubs it “Louisville-style,” which is not a thing except at this particular place.

He won’t need much of it.

Should cause no more confusion with the Falcons than with the Eagles, right? All are distinct types of birds of prey. The confusion comes with Hawks and Seahawks, which are Osprey and, in fact, not actually hawks.

Is it, though? Why?

That is a very reasonable take. Hakeem might even be better today. I bet he would have developed three point range had he come up in today’s game.

Very fair to say that The Dream was a superior player to Shaq overall, but I think you’re going too far to say he was better “in every way.” They were roughly equivalent rebounders and passers, Hakeem was a much better defender, and Shaq was a more dominant scorer. Hakeem’s game might fare better today, but in their

That and records of phone calls (just their existence, not content) between Pitino and the indicted Adidas rep on the day the payments to Brian Bowen were allegedly arranged. Still no smoking gun, but strong evidence nonetheless.

That’s not quite true. The reporting on Adidas’s claims in its response to Pitino’s suit was way overblown. There was nothing new in that filing. Adidas cites the same evidence that was included in the FBI indictment, which is records of phone calls between Pitino and the indicted Adidas rep on the days the payments

They have evidence, but nothing conclusive yet. The evidence in the FBI indictment, which is the same evidence cited by Adidas in their response to Pitino’s suit, is the existence of phone calls between Pitino and Adidas rep James Gatto on the days that the payments to Brian Bowen were arranged. Highly suspicious for

That’s cool. The coaches you mentioned still aren’t better than the ones I listed, not even close really. If they were, they wouldn’t have coached at a school with such comparatively limited football and basketball programs. (I realize Martin is no longer at KSU, but it’s not like South Carolina is a top program

Gotcha. I think per game averages may never again reach the heights of Wilt, Elgin Baylor, and others that played in an era with insane pace and, likely more importantly, competition that was largely pretty trash. It’ll be interesting to see how career points leaders shake out as today’s players (with lower per game

Only two of the top 10 are still active? I mean, I agree that Jason Terry, Jamal Crawford, Vince Carter, Kyle Korver, and Joe Johnson aren’t particularly “active” these days in one sense of the word, but they are all currently on NBA rosters, which is how I understand that word to be used in this context. (Curry is

3-point makes in the NBA is the same, which reveals a similar fundamental shift in the way the game is now played.

Best duo in college history? Really? Just off the top of my head, I would say currently Tom Izzo and Mark Dantonio are superior. I might take Duke’s Kryzsewski and Cutliffe. And historically, it’s not even close. Adolph Rupp and Bear Bryant both coached at Kentucky at the same time, for instance. More recently, you

Yup. He’s a bro, but not a douche-bro.

That was definitely my understanding of the question.

For the love of God, cherish it! You have to cherish it.
