2024-2025 Houston Rockets thread - Prepare for Liftoff 🚀 [Now Featuring Kevin Durant]
Could OKC do it without Chet? I feel like I’d take FVV (after picking up option) and any two young guys other than Amen plus picks and it would be pretty good. Where is OKC matching salary? Harrenstein, Joe and Cason Wallace? I feel like the player package we’d be willing to do is going to be better even if picks aren’t even close. But again…. Pipe dream.

Green’s trajectory isn’t horribly off of Booker’s. Booker was the quintessential good stats bad team guy until he wasn’t. I think Giannis asks out after the season and Milwaukee isn’t going anywhere anyways. If that happens, godfather offer the Bucks. That’s my pipe dream anyway.

- Shootout is Gaitok/Russians/Thai bodyguards/Rick in some weird Tarantino-esque standoff. Russian that banged Laurie is the body. - Ratliffe's lawyer gets him off and he gets phone call he is in the clear. Piper freaks out about brother and doesn't stay. Everything goes back to normal for that family. - Blond blob leave separately. They all hate each other. - Belinda takes the money.

This is turning into torture porn. Jeez. I’ll ride it out, but it’s getting dumb.

7 is a no brainer. And 6 is an easy second if you get on the plane before me.

Yellowjackets - Showtime
Yeah, I am starting to get weary. So they .... I think they'd be, y' know, forgiven, given what they went through, but whatever. Still wondering who HIlary Swank is. Too old to be the frog scientist's daughter. I am guessing the sister of one of the other girls. I *think* this show is trying to show Shauna break bad in both timelines, and perhaps she is the real villain. That would be a cool swerve, but I do not think it has the guts.

I hate Maryland and have enjoyed their slide to obscurity in the Big Ten, but that was cool. Good for that kid.

Austin FC
Was BV point shaving after he got his 1? Geez. Feel like FG for this game was like 6-4. Still love having a guy like him on this team. Afternoon games in good weather are fun.

UT's next basketball coach - discussion/debate [Sean Miller Hired]
Throw some money at Hurley. Just to see. I know he didn’t take Lakers job but Storrs sucks. Great timing now, too.

So hand Noah Wyle the Emmy now, right? And the woman that plays the nurse, too.

Well she nailed what being an income partner at K&E is like.

Kinda disappointed this show went tiny town. Still, I have enjoyed it.

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
Meh.... I am torn because on the one hand, DE has an activist judge that is basically making it an impossibility for companies to have disinterested board members without having to prove it all the way up to the DE supreme court. And other cases like the Moelis case that had to be fixed by statute are completely off the rails. The recent proposed changes to 144 in Delaware are probably an overcorrection, but at least they provide some clarity. On the other hand, fuck Elon.

All things SNL
While I wholeheartedly agree, it must be a generational thing because she has a fanbase. But she does seem like she won the "audience member gets to be part of the cast" contest every time she shows up.

So Spencer is going to find himself in West Texas, kill the ranger and priest, save Teonna and bring her back to Montana, right? Probably with a short temptation from US Marshall Debra Morgan?

The movie you just watched
I just watched this last night. Really liked it. I was kinda hoping it would end differently, but that's OK. Was really good.

Would RT keep his job if the following happened
Basically NC State from two years ago, right? Agree with TxTower though.

Separately --- when Chloe calls Saxon a douche a couple of episodes back and he pulls his sunglasses down and laughs, he looks exactly like Risky Business era Tom Cruise. Like, if he wasn't >6'0" I'd wonder if Maria was stepping out on Arnold too with the scientologists 30 years ago.
