  1. Use your good eye
  2. Very nice send-up of Wild Wild Country. The reason the cult wore yellow/black and their new names was hilarious
  3. Even the Night King needs to make some cash in between GoT seasons
  4. LeBron's not lying...of course, the West doesn't have to go through him either at the moment
  5. There was plenty written about Calipari pre-UKY, when he was repeatedly busted. There was at least one major national column calling out Self after the asst coach wiretaps were published. The writers can't really "bring them down" though. Even this FBI thing hasn't collected any scalps yet. As long as those dudes have their jobs - and keep winning - most of the day-to-day coverage will be flattering. Again, most of them are good quotes who treat the media pretty well so that helps.

    Bought tickets to her show, but was mainly hooked by this opening act:
  7. Well, the Fish needed a catcher and Alfaro's pretty much middle of the pack so he'll be fine. That trade was about Sixto Sanchez, who gets a lot of Pedro comparisons but may be a lazy headcase too
  8. Those coaches are good with the media and they win. Watch the Sean Miller treatment for comparison, he's a dick to media and has underachieved in March so he'll be easier for the columnists and talking heads to tear into
  9. The Athletic article ($ub req) on Stoops hiring process (w/JR quotes) and mentions the XFL is holding a "research" league in Austin soon...
  10. KD specifically named him in that little rant posted earlier. I haven't followed this drama much, but that particular session he handled very well imo. It's poor journalism for any reporters to think he's going to give a revealing answer about his 2019-20 location while they're competing for another ring this spring.
  11. XFL to announce Bob Stoops as coach/GM of Dallas franchise Never count out Vince McMahon. Season starts in Feb. 2020, so if Bob plans to walk across the street after Jason Garrett goes bust next season, he would have to do so without coaching a game.
  12. I doubt any of them would deny Embiid is the #1 guy. You hopefully don't need a strict order after that, other than Simmons knowing that if he has a lane to the basket he is free to take it strong. He and Joel should continue to do a great job finding whoever else is open based on game flow. But I agree Butler could pollute the atmosphere, maybe even before the new guys take the court. Or maybe not until the offseason. Will be fascinating to watch.
  13. Just take those old records off the shelf! Saw a tweet a while back - go to karaoke and try to sing the first lyric over and over as the entire song, changing the cadence to fit the actual lyrics. It works really well with "Just take those old records off the shelf", you can get through the whole song on that line and if done right it's hilarious
  14. Great move if the Sixers can re-sign Tobias - otherwise that's a lot to give up for a half-season. Also PHI really needs what's left of the bench to play well starting immediately. Shamet, Chandler and Muscala all played roles in locking down wins while the stars got some rest. Getting the 2-3 seed in the East isn't going to matter much if everyone has dead legs by the second round because starters have to stay on the floor so much in Feb-March.
  15. Last year, Boras client Jake Arrieta didn't sign until March 12 and he got a pretty friendly deal from the Phillies, though it was much less than Boras was looking for earlier in the winter. Same with Moustakas who had to settle for a one-year deal last minute. My uninformed guess is that Machado will wait out Harper, because if Bryce doesn't take the Phillies offer they may have to really throw money at Manny to salvage the off-season. If Bryce does come to Philly, the White Sox may win Manny by default.
  16. Bartles replied to RPM's topic in Football
    That's what was so frustrating about watching this game. The Rams didn't make any significant adjustments. Hardly ever rolled Goff away from pressure, no misdirection, no hurry up offense. Not that it would have worked but at least break up the routine.
  17. Bartles replied to RPM's topic in Football
    Rams just aren't that great, neither were the Saints. Pats will have to punt occasionally but they'll pull away with TDs while McVay settles for a few epic FGs
  18. Just stroll around the Canal Shoppes at Venetian, you'll swear you're in Italy!

    I can't grasp how this didn't get shut down in advance on the music side. Blink 182's generic bailout couldn't have been the only warning sign, right? The talent booker admitted he was 21-22 and had no idea what he was doing. I would think most of the major bands would have forced the issue based on some combination of not getting paid upfront, not having verified flight/lodging information, not having equipment logistics confirmed, sound specs, etc. Just to name one, Major Lazer has 3.6 million Insta followers today - surely there was some back-and-forth with fans in the days before Fyre?
  21. It is begging for a sequel and I'm not sure what the holdup is
  22. Just took the Pacers apart in their own building. Now we face all the good teams in the west for a couple weeks. Gonna be a bumpy ride, especially with Embiid having back soreness. I just want to hold 3rd place until buyout season hopefully brings some depth like last year.
  23. Wetteland was the big signee for '97 but that team fell on its face and they bounced back to win division in '98. Great pitcher, but he never seemed to fit the fun culture of those playoff teams. In your face religion and kind of odd with media as I recall.
  24. Intensity ramped up toward the end of the first episode. I like that the flash forwards add interesting bits of information rather than fuck with viewers' minds a la Westworld. Lots of potential this season.
