That's been the running joke for that area for a little while but based strictly off of development in the area the last 2-3 years we all know it's most likely going to be a mixed-use condo. Probably with Bumfucalina Tre on the first floor.
Very cool. Didn't spend an inordinate amount of time going through that but a broad observation:
- pre-1900: very utilitarian objects like various hand tools, carving knives, pots, thimbles, spoons, etc.
- 1975-present: hash pipes, condoms and pokemans
Previous Ringer mock had us taking JJJ, now they have us back with Bamba. You've got all the Woj, Luka trade talk from a couple days ago and then I just saw Russillo tweet he heard the Mavs are interested in MPJ. This all means we probably end up with Mikal Bridges right?
I've been out of the loop the last couple days and I think that Boston chatter has been dispelled, but regardless, no one should be excited about making a trade with Danny Ainge. Especially the Mavs. If hypothetically Ainge genuinely did want Bamba and you're Donnie/Cubes, you turn your phone off, sit your ass down, and mark every single other name off your draft board that's not Mo Motherfucking Bamba.
I've been a little worried about it too. Saw the following in an SBNation story about Porter though:
"A study done by two orthopedic surgeons from NYU’s Hospital for Joint Diseases, and one from Department of Orthopedic Surgery at Northwestern, compared those who had surgery after disc herniation (like Porter did) and those who chose rehab.
Using PER as a baseline, the study found that in a small, 61-person sample size, those who had surgery had a decline in games played and in PER in the year after their surgery, but showed no difference in the years following. Those who did not choose surgery saw no change in PER or games played, but had shorter careers."

Like everyone else I was pretty dissapointed when the pick number was unveiled but holy fuck balls, from the looks of Mavs Twitter and the extended Mavs media machine, you'd think the league just announced they're shutting the team down or something. Yeah, I'd say Ayton/Doncic are a pretty firm cut above at 1-2 but that 3-8 range looks very promising this year. There will be risk, sure, but at this point who can really project much difference in future success between Bagley/Bamba/JJJ/MPJ/Carter?
Until Post Malone it had always been a huge mystery to me that despite being the fourth largest metro area in the country and so close to rap star fertile Houston and New Orleans, DFW had never produced a massively popular hip-hop/rap superstar (I'm not counting Vanilla Ice who from what I could tell repped being from Miami more than Dallas or someone like Dorrough who I don't think has had anywhere near the kind of airplay or chart success).
Actually my first instinct was somebody was fucking with his Twitter but if so figured "I'm leaving my job" would be more of a weird thing to say than funny. Figured a classic "I've always loved cocks in my butt, y'all" or some variant would've been more fitting.
Meru. Bad ass mountain climbing/adventure doc about a trio of climbers' attempts to climb one of the hardest routes on one of the most dangerous peaks in the Himalayas. Amazing story and awesome scenery.
