Yes. The author mentioned it in the very first sentence of the article: “Jimmer Fredette made his presence felt early and often against the Fort Wayne Champs...”

The worst part was when Sanchez finally got the ball, he handed it to his wife as opposed to the kid in the front row.

Everything is so unnecessarily sloppy. If the creators of the movie can’t be bothered to care about the characters or the details of the story, I’m not sure how they can expect the audience to care about any of it.

In this entire sordid affair, Philip DeFranco is really not the person we should be mad at.

“17–of–22 from the field, 4–of–5 from three”

I wish them luck but there are so many indies out there right now, it’s really hard for any of them to break out of the pack and stand out in a meaningful way.

“Im not sure what you’re on about in that second paragraph. Thomas isn’t even thirty yet so he hasn’t played his age 30 season.”

The Red Sox are playing great baseball. And I suspect nobody outside of Boston appreciates their season one bit.

I don’t really spend too much time thinking about turinabol or Jeff Novitzky. I just look at the pictures based on “7 months of powerlifting” and develop my own suspicions about steroids. https://www.mensjournal.com/health-fitness/jon-bones-jones-reveals-his-insane-body-transformation-after/

Agreed. This was essentially my reaction when I saw the posters.

Sure. I was very careful to not to be definitive in my post. I said this “suggests that a case could be made” then followed up with a second post which said “it could be argued” — which are both very qualified comments. People are certainly welcome to draw their own conclusions.

I assumed as much. I’m just noting the visual similarities and that it could be argued that the designer and the studio stole from the source material in the article.

Those posters suggest that a case could be made for plagiarism: https://www.indiewire.com/2018/03/disney-accused-plagiarizing-solo-posters-french-artist-hachim-bahous-1201936483/

Here’s a running list of Rondo issues, up to 2015: https://www.mavsmoneyball.com/2015/2/26/8114369/complete-history-rajon-rondo-pissing-off-coaches-benched

I am against any measures that make it even harder for underdog teams to advance. It’s hard enough for some of these plucky, smaller countries to make it out of the first stage, but constant re-seeding (so that they would face a top seed every round) would make it a death march.

“I’m starting to get the feeling some cops aren’t the smartest.”

“It’s extremely heartening that 19-year-olds are still referring to Tobey Maguire Spider-Man movies as the Spider-Man of record, despite the emergence of Tom Holland, who is good but not MY Spider-Man.”

I have no understanding of his exit strategy/endgame. I understand that he scammed people and took their money. But he also stuck around until people realized that he scammed them and took their money, waiting to get arrested? This all seems like a very poorly designed con job.

“these are the risks a small-payroll team feels most comfortable making, since the A’s need to find value anywhere they can.”

Every dumb activity in the history of mankind can be explained by the same simple phrase:
