I care. What the fuck do you think I can do about it?

Yeah, and if you were that plumber, I would take you to fucking court one way or another.

It would be unacceptable to do to a 1990 Geo Prism. It’s a different civil issue when the dollar value gets that high.

Let’s say I’m a plumber, and you’re a homeowner.

What’s up with all the minced words about this? The owner has fucking evidence that the shit was driven after midnight and for non-business purposes. How the fuck could that possibly be okay?

Did she get banned from target for being a SJW?

he was bad at basketball

If I had to guess, Daily Mail is posting it for the controversy.

Okay, thanks. I thought you were spewing conjecture -- I appreciate the time you took to link these. Not the Daily Mail, but the rest of it.

What are the odds that he Jay Williamsed himself on a dirtbike? The rumor’s been swirling for months.

Tech culture is sexist as fuck, but are you really claiming gender bias on automated voice recognition? hahahahahahaha OK

Right, but the subtext is that something happened to the team that resulted in better play. The causality is baked in, and that’s silly.

Because fun masquerades as truth in the sports world, and we have enough moronic bullshit as it is.

I love IT and think he’s washed, but we’re looking at a sample of 140 minutes as some kind of evidence of... what, exactly?

That win over the Bulls was Detroit’s 12th in 15 games

Yeah, definitely no room to look at these people as victims of CTE who create more victims.

Yeah, we definitely agree there. My point about the stats is simply that stat-based decisions are a better bet than going on the eye-test. It’s a “dumb” decision-making process, but it avoids all the pitfalls of hope and upside and potential and, my favorite, “intrigue.” Almost all of that shit is coaching hubris.

My point isn’t that great NCAA players can’t flame out. You’re absolutely right that guys like Kaminsky and Zeller had excellent efficiency stats in college, and played on D-1 powerhouses against great competition. (Zeller hasn’t been all that bad this year, with a +15 net rating and a 2.7 BPM over >1000 minutes. But…

If I had any suspicion he’d be gone at #5, I’d take him at #4, as he projects to be a Siakam-like player at the next level. (Seriously, look at his BPM this season, playing for one of the best teams in the NCAA. He’s incredible.) Getting the age 23-26 seasons on a rookie contract is fantastic value, and it he (by some…

To be fair, NBA teams are absolutely horrid at evaluating talent, and that’s probably because they favor old-world eyetest bullshit over picking actually-productive basketball players in the NCAA. And they all cream their pants over teenagers with athleticism who have glaring flaws in their games.
