No Bucks retrospective is complete until Brad Lohaus makes an appearance.
The teams that rarely change are the ones that have the most valuable brands. The Redskins are the third most valuable franchise in the NFL. (crazy, I know!). They have no reason to change.
The Redskins, believe it or not, are one of the most valuable brands in professional sports. It would take several generations and an insane amount of money to create a new name that could generate the same amount of brand recognition, value, and loyalty.
Shout out to the dude at 1:30 who was playing hooky from work and wanted to avoid getting caught.
Do yourself a favor and spend the two minutes it takes to look up the Pirates name origin on Wikipedia. The name derives from the franchise trolling the American Association, who accused them of stealing players. It’s a good name.
Can we take a moment to point out the real problem in all of this? That baseball panel is drawn terribly. None of the characters come close to resembling baseball movements, the perspectives are way off (the pitcher is standing 5 feet from the batter), Colossus’ elbow sticks out funny...we should really demand more…
Can you better explain your comment of “devoid of star talent?”
You explained this better than I just attempted to. Thanks.
My belief (and I think may be Marvel’s same feeling) is that being married to a perfect woman with no flaws hurt the ethos of Peter Parker, turning an everyman to someone with a bit of a fantasy personal life (I realize that sounds a little ridiculous when the man is a superhero).
I feel like you’re not giving Oklahoma enough credit here. The only people who travel there either work in oil & gas or they’re related to Russell Westbrook.
It’s predicated on movement of the ball and players and actually requires superstars to play within the confines of a system to create spacing for everyone. Jackson’s brilliance came in getting exceptional players like Jordan, Pippen, Bryant and O’Neal to buy in to it to make it work.
This is because so many people treat their Facebook page like they are a public relations firm and need to provide a press release to the masses.
I’ve used it on people so much that my entire feed is now made up of the Pittsburgh Steelers team page and a local restaurant I really like.
Some spicy armchair psychology from the greys:
This is why there are still a lot of LeBron haters out there. He’s probably now in the top 3 players of all time, but he sits out nationally-televised games. By comparison Jordan committed to playing every game he could, and made quotes like these:
Other industries don’t need the appearance of competitive balance of competing companies in order to thrive.
Drew, you need to watch Shark Tank more often. A few weeks ago you pined for the Drop Stop. Now you are wishing someone invented the Drip Drop.

Re: quarterbacks: I know this is an obvious question, but how can a team spend a top pick on someone like Goff while Dak gets picked in the 4th round and by PRESEASON, it’s already obvious who’s better?
