All fair points.

You know what's weird too is how many MLS teams there are (20 with a possible 22 in a few years), vs the WNBA's 12. At 12 players per team that number of people that can play it is obviously far less. Rookie minimum is $35,000. 3 Years experience is $51,000. Average salary was $71,000 (but I imagine the few…

I mean on some levels it's not always money/prestige so much as an ability to play in a culture of people that looks very highly on the training and loves the sport.

I think for MLS to be more viable internationally and obviously in America, they need to help create players that are worth watching. That's not to say that the players are bad or anything like that, just that even at 60,000, I feel like any mid tier player might still be somewhat better served playing abroad. At…

I mean they have to let him go because of their own inability to manage a salary cap by extending bonuses for years during restructurings. They probably could have resigned him last year if they didn't keep pushing money into imaginary future's where there is no effect.

**Hot Take**

97-98, 99-2000. I think Carlisle was the coach before Thomas.

I mean other then with the Pacers, which I don't know, maybe it can be chalked up to great assistants (I haven't done like full splits or anything), a bad east, who knows, he was pretty attrocious as a coach. So I can see your point about him as GM being slightly better. He was almost 40 games under .500 after 3…

As I said in another response there's no real context for this other than this one video, in the 3rd quarter. It's entirely possibly that they were jawing the whole game prior.

I mean, putting any stock in any of non-point guard skills is sort of sobering.

The Phil Jackson coaching tree is becoming extremely similar to the Bill Belichick coaching tree.

You know the thing is, Zeke the coach wasn't great, but he was mostly done in by Zeke the GM. Oh and the backseat of Escalades.

The dude head butted Dwight Howard.

First off, I had a feeling everyone would read this and go into a spiral of immediately assuming I was calling for fighting. Read the last sentence. Read all of it in context. Sarcasm? Does it exist? Maybe.

Guy in blue is styling right now.

This wasn't some Kermit Washington shit, but it was interesting to see someone in the NBA have some actual balls and not just immediately do the whole "Someone Hold Me Back" thing.

This dude spends more time defending his girlfriend then contributing to his team winning games.

I have one daughter (3) and another child on the way in July and I generally agree. I live in an apartment so cloth diapers were just too difficult right off the bat. I couldn't wash them as regularly as needed so we went Pampers (in our daughter's case she had super sensitive skin and after trying off-brand it just…

The best part has always been that it's barely even moving. Like a child can crawl at that speed.
