Love solo travelling. I went to Miami Beach last year, did a food walking tour and a boat tour and talked to some nice people during those, but mostly kept to myself with my book, my music and my beach towel. It was heaven.

I’d rather watch the NBA these days where there are limited calls. College referees decide 1/2 the time that they need a “coaching moment” to teach “fundamentals.” With the TV timeouts, short halves, 5 timeouts per half (may be 4 now?), and all the fouls NCAA is tough to watch. It could also be that Pitt sucks and…

I have found that this makes the “people try to join me” worse.

I guess it just seems odd that this wouldn’t be called, but *pick your shooter gets the benefit when chucking a long three and leaning into the defender drawing the foul after the defender bites on the pump fake. I mean, I enjoy watching basketball, I just don’t fucking understand the calls. Forgive my naïveté.

I feel your pain brother. I lost most of my retirement in the great Jamba Juice crash of 2005.

Normally I hate Embiided video but this one is pretty good.

Technology company valuations are a great source of humor to me.

Congrats to Danny Ainge on breaking both Isaiah Thomas and Markelle Fultz’s careers.

How in the world is Tim Hardaway even in the same league as Jrue Holidays contract?

He signed a 4/72 deal - which is around 10 million less per season, and outside of a really poor shooting start to the season, has been every bit the part of a second, borderline first option for the Knicks when hes on the court. He is…

This is a great idea, The All-Salary Cap Killer Team: players with high salaries and low production.

Here is my take:

PG Holliday: like youve aaid, a perfectly fine point guard who is vastly overpaid for what he brings to the table.

SG Evan Turner: does everything on a basketball court yet does nothing particularly…

God Ergodan is such an asshole. He’s creating a brain drain in Turkey so that all the people with smarts leave and all that is left are rubes that will blindly support him without any criticism.

Evan Turner @ 18/yr would like a word.

I may be biased since I’m a Knicks fan (I am definitely biased), but I love Kanter and I hope he never stops ripping on LeBron James/Jared Dudley/the Turkish President.

It’s because we are starting a point guard so old, his last trip to the beach was during Sherman’s March to the Sea.

This sucks so fucking bad.

Particularly when they are children or teenagers, as many (most?) of Nasser’s victims were.

This has been fascinating to me for quite some time. A huge chunk of Americans—it might well be the majority—do not see prison as rehabilitative. They have no interest in redemption, or change, or personal improvement. They view the people coming out of prison as no better than they were when they went in, no matter…

I better not see that dickhead Bela Karolyi get another job using the name Bob Smith.

They need to GTFO. Yesterday. Also the entires gymnastics coaching staff and the entire training staff, anyone who had anything to do with that scum Nassar, and anyone who was told anything about him by any athlete. Period.
