You will pry my Cheetos Chicken Sandwich from my cold dead hands! Probably with a couple bites taken out of it. Because it’s what killed me.

This morning they ruled out a gas leak and they’ve also said they do not suspect foul play.

A manager told police he and others smelled gas as he was closing the restaurant in Eden

Or an employee doing some after-hours meth cooking.

the easy explanation is “gas leak,” the other is somebody in Eden tried to eat from the Tree of Knowledge

until the colonel removes the cheeto chicken sandwich, a restaurant will be destroyed every night. this i swear to you

Fuck and Yes. 

Counter point: I was so distraught when my favorite team did a sign and trade of CP3, and then traded Blake Griffin after signing him to the max. I thought they were doomed to being basement dwellers for a decade. 2 years later they are the favorite to win the championship. Sometimes you need to take a step back in…

You know what really ‘hurts the fanbase’?  Stealing a team and moving it to Oklahoma.

“What could possibly go wrong?”

I feel like you don’t understand what “easier said than done” means.

To be clear, the Thunder don’t have any kind of plan here.

The dominance, draw and success of LA and NY is also being overstated.

I think the point she’s making is about their dominance as preferred destinations over places like Oklahoma or Wisconsin. In the Abdul-Jabbar situation she’s talking about, Kareem literally told the Bucks he was forcing a trade because Milwaukee wasn’t “meeting his cultural needs.”

Also shouldn’t be allowed to think about 2026:  Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer.  

Maybe they should have sought out a trade that would give them actual, tangible talent in exchange for their centerpiece point guard.

But...

Alternate headline: “Business Should Not Take Reasonable Steps to Plan for the Future”

“the dominance of New York and L.A. over the Midwest has existed at least since Kareem Abdul-Jabbar forced his way out of Milwaukee”

There is something fundamentally wrong with player contracts maxing out at 5 years (and the trend for most being essentially 3-year deals) while a team can trade picks that are 7 years out.
