  1. Manning was actually carried both times and Idk if he's considered top three anymore. The better NFL example would be what to do with Rodgers in the all-time rankings. He's probably the closest thing to Wilt in a different sport whereas Brady is a bit more like Russell. Messi and Maradona is tricky because Messi is the better player, but he gets dinged in Argentina because he left the country at a young age. Pele is again the interesting comparison to Russell. Can't really say anything on Richard or Shearer.
  2. Well rings in the NBA do matter and when the gap is that large it stands out. And Russell won more MVPs. There's an argument to be made that Wilt had more team success when he reduced his role.
  3. Why not just send them off to magical lands via bedknobs or wardrobes? Or just send them to Wales, it's all the same.
  4. Ant was the top pick that year. The Wolves chose wisely. Curry's impact on the actual game might be greater than any other player in NBA history. Jordan, LeBron and Kareem are locked in as the top three and Russell should be ahead of Wilt, wherever you rank the two (I always say top 12 because Idk how you rank either of them given just how different the game was back then).
  5. Cap space might be tricky, but I think if he asked for a trade GS would take pennies on the dollar to help him get to a contender. A couple of picks and swaps, a young player with upside and some bad contracts might do it. I just don't know which team can make that deal. I still think he might just want to be a Warrior for life, but getting one more ring cements him as a top 10 all-time player (I think he already is) and that may tempt him to leave.
  6. Hence why I don't have to plan on it once in a blue moon.
  7. He's washed. Having those back to back injuries for sure cut down his longevity. Still a first ballot HoFer though. I think we saw a dynasty die tonight. Green is pretty cooked as well and Steph can't carry the team anymore. He can for a night, but he needs a lot more help to make one more push and I'm not sure who they can add.
  8. You can also just lie. Having a sign in your yard saying you have a security system works almost as well as actually having one.
  9. I really don't buy into the need to make around what your partner does. You don't want a leach that does nothing and takes advantage of you, but I'd rather be with someone who has a job that makes them happy than be with a person who is miserable despite cashing a good check. To each their own.
  10. I'd call that a Dream Team. They got basically all the top American players to join up. That doesn't always happen. I agree that they're not traveling like us, but the one counterpoint that makes sense to me is a lot of air travel is more stressful on taller people. I don't think its that big of a deal these days, but it was in the past.
  11. I'm sure, but the family in general will never see what they're legally owed. But then again, if you really love your parent, no amount of money will ever make things right. 100%. In the doc I've referenced, OJ: Made in America, people straight up said this. It was payback and the funny thing is OJ liked being seen as not being black.

  12. If the Elmo head doesn't fit, you must acquit!
  13. Nope, I don't think they got anything after he was forced to sell some things. The lawyer overseeing his estate is quoted saying he'll do what he can to make sure the Goldmans get nothing. Maybe they will in the end, but who knows. ‘The Goldmans get zero, nothing’: OJ Simpson’s estate to fight payout to victims’ families | OJ Simpson | The Guardian Personally if I was a family member of either the Browns or Goldmans I'd make sure I got all his golf clubs. The fucker was playing on high end courses after he lost both the civil trial and criminal one in NV so he clearly wasn't broke.
  14. The jury still did a bad job. The physical evidence was as conclusive as you could hope for without catching OJ on camera and/or he admitting to it. His blood was at the scene. He was a known abuser who was very jealous about the people his ex was sleeping with. I could list a number of other things, but you already know the details. OJ didn't get off because of Fuhrman, he did so because multiple people on the jury were never going to convicted him and they were able to wait out the others because they all wanted to go home. This is exactly why the system needs to move quickly. There's no reason that trial should have lasted nearly a year.
  15. Would it have made things better if he was watching sportball in a very well made Elmo costume?
  16. A friend forced me and two others to leave a long extra innings game because at the time he couldn't pee in public. The things you do for love.
  17. Nah, it mostly comes across the same as people complaining about books in schools their children (if they even have them) don't attend.
  18. Just consider opioids or something as simple as being prescribed a pill for ADHD (often times when it shouldn't be). Mistakes were obviously made in several instances, but the visceral reaction to medication for potential trans individuals is more hostile and tends to come from those without it actually impacting them in any way.
  19. Does travel really matter anymore? I get the concerns from yesteryear, but so much has advanced since then. Getting rid of back to backs and scheduling regional road trips seems more important.
  20. Yup. If they're smart they'll just laugh at Iran and call it a day. Too bad their leader is a fucking dumbass who does what he thinks will protect him. President Skroob could do a better job. President Camacho would be ten steps ahead of that idiot and Skroob would be that far ahead of Netanyahu. What an asshole. You've been a jerk to me and I've let most of it slide. Just for starters, please capitalize words, especially countries. Iran more likely than not played some role in the initial attack, so it's hard to say they responded, especially when you factor in that they give zero shits about the Palestinian people. If everyone in Gaza and the WB died this second and it made their position 1% better they'd probably take that outcome.
