Read the definition you posted. They’re not. “Equate” is a specific subset of “compare”. They don’t mean the same thing and nobody is “equating” Wilson’s hit with any other penalty-worthy hit in the game.

And I wish people would stop saying people are equating two things that are not being equated. But somehow, the world continues to turn. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It wasn’t just a ruling on the ice. The 2-minute minor was assessed after the officials reviewed the play for a couple of minutes. They determined it was a 2-minute minor. No launching, no contact to the head, Marchessault wasn’t seriously hurt and returned to the game, a game with lots of hits on both sides, and…

If the Sharks go again, they should have Elon Musk assemble a Tesla Model 3 on the ice. Though he might have to start assembling it in September so he can finish it without making the NHL delay (or, as Musk would call it, “time shift”) the start of the game for 9 months.

You’ve really commented yourself into a ridiculous knot.

Vegas skates kind of fast.

Well, unless Houston or Golden State bring their game up a notch or two, it’s hard to say the Cavs can’t win it all. Love will be back for the Finals (for better or worse), and maybe JR Smith will find his shot some of the time, or someone else will step up. By rights, Cleveland shouldn’t have beaten either Toronto or…

Huh? I honestly expected the video to prove you right, but it actually shows Curry holding Harden, something I didn’t even notice last night.

It was odd, I’ll just say that.

I mean, the Rockets were very bad in 3Q, and the refs didn’t make them miss all those shots. But I felt like the Rockets saw two things about 5 minutes into that quarter: 1) the refs were not only not going to call any fouls on GSW, but they were going to call GSW fouls on Houston (how did Harden get called for an…

It didn’t alter the outcome in any meaningful way, but was the second half officiating in that game just trash or what? Maybe it was a case of the Rockets playing lousy so the refs weren’t going to give them any calls until they could get their shit together, but the calls and no-calls were crazy to watch in real…

Oh.

Statistically speaking, aren’t the Cavs better when Love doesn’t play? Maybe he doesn’t have a concussion. Maybe they just want to win Game 7.

Other people in the neighborhood said Sophie told them she had been beaten on other occasions but would blame herself, saying she dropped the bitter or something. Hard to believe the police and neighbors knew something fishy was up but nobody did anything to help her.

I was thinking along those same lines. Cosmetic work hasn’t even crossed my mind. That would’ve been handled very differently. I don’t want to speculate but there are are only a few explanations for why someone in that role would suddenly go MIA for this long with no real updates or sightings, and most of them are…

Did they all involve one of the murderers taking the victim to the police station before killing her and the police telling her to go home because she “wasn’t making any sense”?

I don’t say this lightly, though I have nothing to go on other than some kind of sixth sense, but is anybody else wondering if Melania wasn’t in the hospital for a kidney ailment but for something a lot more serious and maybe even sinister? No? Okay, so it’s just me then. I hope I’m wrong. But I honestly do wonder wtf…
