I was thinking bout this whole (ridiculous) "heat bandwagon" stuff; Is anything ever said about the country that jumps from team to to team rooting against the Heat? Or rooting for foreigners whom they dont watch then become "America's team?"

I've enjoyed my time spent in San Antonio, but I wouldn't call it glamorous. The Pacers and OKC made the Conference Finals again this year. Indiana's State Tax rate is 2nd only to California's (combined rate ranked 21st in nation) and Oklahoma's combined rate is the 5th highest - and neither have the other 3…

Didn't San Antonio, Oklahoma City & Indianapolis just play in the conference finals?

San Antonio is 37th in market size. Miami is 16th, smaller than Minneapolis, Phoenix, Houston, DC, Boston, Oakland-SF, Dallas, Philly, Chicago, LA, and NY. They are competing ok.

"this is not true at all"

So you mean only 5-6 teams have a shot like the entire history of the NBA?

Yeah, but people who care about other people's "legacy" are generally dumb.

You're not asking for competitive balance. If that were the case, you'd be calling for a revamp of the draft lottery, non-guaranteed contracts and a relegation system to punish franchises that operate with unsound principles year in year out.

Huh. I guess I didn't notice.

"we have to fight for the right of all Americans [who have ever signed contracts containing provisions that regulate conduct while owning a NBA franchise]."

"a band of hypocrites and bullies," and "despicable monsters."

Well that's fine with me. I'm not sure how much credibility I can really have as a random burner on an internet comment board. I didn't come out of the gate so aggressively. I was baited into calling that guy a fucking idiot. If someone makes a basic point about one company owning another, which is really…

So what you're saying is that tacos are for pretentious and insecure people who rely on their food choices to give them a sense of identity?

No you're a fucking idiot actually. I don't really 'hate' that smear. I don't really care. I'm just a normal (I think?) guy in my office job and I just do really like Chipotle. Like, I REALLY like it. You should see my bank statements and all the Chipotle charges. I can see where you're drawing your conspiracy…

4) Chipotle used to be owned by McDonalds. I GET that they're not anymore, but they learned everything they know about business from the world's shittiest and most destructive fast-food chain. You can run from it, but you can't hide. Chipotle -3.

My biggest gripe with Chipotle has, and will always be, the EXPLOSIVE effect their burritos have. And I'm not talking about the trip to the bathroom after eating one. I'm talking about the damn burrito inverting itself all over the damn place when I'm trying to eat it. It's almost like the tortillas are spring…

Qdoba is like a bag of Andy's Hot Fries and Chipotle is like Alison Brie's tits.

Agreed. IMO, the only acceptable use is as a dip. Don't put that anywhere near my burrito.

As a native Californian/chicano, I really must apologize for the burrito arrogance this section of the USA seems to breed. If it makes you feel better, I find the San Diegan mindset of what a burrito must be to be as insufferable as the Chicagoan obsession with pizza. A burrito is as good as its ingredients, and man,…
