I’m not going to listen to anything regarding reinstating Rose when they were trying to downplay and erase Jackie Robinson recently.3 points

Ausar was a monster in this game, made me eat my words and the vets came through again. Cade woke up in the second half. Knicks needed like 3 Hail Mary threes, just like in Game 4, just to stay close late in the 4th. This was the Pistons game. Knicks now are bruised and battered, this could go 7.3 points

Yes!!!! This team has cost me so many years with these close games. Did JB finally figure out that Ausar’s minutes need to mirror Brunson? We’ll find out Thursday. Let’s get one at home.3 points

well, what goes around usually come around. After the right interprets the Establishment clause away, it opens the door for a future court to interpret the 2A away. At least I can hope.2 points

Yes, I am speaking more in terms of perception than my own feelings. I understand the distinction between players gambling and fans gambling and the former is what's wrong. I don't think the reinstatement of Rose would have a big impact on a lot of fans. The first thing they are going to stay is "He only gambled on his own team. What's wrong that?" I also think that constant promotion of gambling is going to blur the distinction more and more, but that is a somewhat different iussue.2 points

It won't go unnoticed especially if the president talks about it endlessly, but it won't cause them to lose their target audience. Are you going to stop watching baseball because Pete Rose was re-instated? As far as I am concerned, they have already lost their moral authority on gambling by promoting gambling every chance they get. I understand the distinction between Rose gambling and fans gambling, but the hyprocrisy is too thick. The game is now so hopelessly connected to gambling that players or managers fixing games (or the suspicion of such) is inevitable and it will be all MLB's fault.2 points

Why doesn’t Fanduel Detroit show the Blubaugh family now, after the home run he gave up?2 points

Exactly. And then, in a playoff game with a team with Super Bowl aspirations, who do you trust more: a guy who hasn't experienced any real game time, or a seasoned vet, who was also in your offense the year before? They were only going to activate 1 and the other would be the emergency. It really makes complete sense without necessarily saying anything about how they feel about Hooker. The fact that they didn't bring in any significant competition this offseason says more about how they feel about Hooker IMO.2 points

I think to a degree, McClellan was giving Yzerman cover arguing the team was good enough to have made it. He harped a lot about game management, but the real problem for the Wings is that even if you make the safe dump to the corner and fall back - the puck is still coming right back at them because most of them still don't fore-check worth a damn and they can't pressure the puck effectively once it gets in their end, and when the other team raises its energy level and start to press, you get 5 wings standing around waving their sticks at passing lanes hoping their goalie can make a stop because they know only way they are getting the puck back is a lucky rebound right back to a Wing. The ability to pressure the puck and take back possession when the game gets competitive is just lacking with this team - has been for years now. The rest is all just noise.2 points

Brunson shot 4-16 from the field. Harris and company did a nice job on KAT too. He was 5-14 from the field. Hardaway and Beasley combined to go 3-14 from three. Pistons were 8-29 as a team.2 points

The best part of the plan is that the people who might want those jobs are all being deported or no longer allowed into the country. I guess they take all the trained medical scientists who lost their jobs and put them into these factories. I am sure they'll all be highly motivated.2 points

They are going to draft the player with the best long-term potential whether it be a high school or college player.1 point

They could let him in to make Trump happy or to appease their gambling partners. I don't think it will cause any big damage to the industry. I don't think the world cares about Pete Rose anymore. It's just baseball nuts like us who care.1 point

There’s a precedent for this: in the South, both during slavery and Jim Crow, poor rural white people had it very, very hard, but at least they knew they had the quality of whiteness going for them, and that made them feel that at least they weren’t the ones at the bottom of the pecking order, and that was a very important status for them to maintain.1 point

My wife and I saw Blubaugh pitch for Sugar Land in Durham on April 6th against the Bulls. Blubaugh started and went three innings, giving up three runs, two of them earned. Our old friend Zack Short committed an error behind Blubaugh costing him an unearned run. Blubaugh dominated Durham in the series opener with nine strikeouts and no walks in a 2-0 win.1 point

Does it even matter in the grand scheme of things? The bigger tell is that it demonstrates that they *know* their tariff policies are wildly unpopular. And the reality is that it probably doesn't matter; people are going to put the pieces together as to why they can't find a toaster on the shelf at Walmart in a few months.1 point

The zone has definitely been flooded with youtube videos telling me how wonderful the series is. The depth of the quality of acting and writing is really amazing. Mon Mothma selling her daughter off, knowing her best friend is about to be killed to secure the Rebellion and her reaction to dance like she's Billy Idol in the "Dancing With Myself" video. We still have not had the killer monologue for this season with possible exception of Cassian's pep talk for the woman in the facility he stole the prototype tie fighter from. I can see why MAGA people wouldn't like this series because it contains themes on the causes and experiences of Rebellion that aren't beer haul putschs driven by personality cults.1 point

There’s some creative reporting going on by his agent. That’s a very standard UDFA contract. The league standard for an undrafted rookie is a three-year deal, with Exclusive Rights to follow. Recall the Brock Wright drama last year when he signed an offer sheet with the Niners. As opposed to 1st rounders who have four-year deals with a fifth-year team option, or 2nd-7th rounders with four-year deals. The league minimums are $840,000 for the rookie season, $1,005,000 for the second season, and $1,130,000 for the third season. So the league standard, minimum deal for an undrafted rookie in 2025 is 3 years / $2.97 million. Exactly what he got. What UDFAs really tend to care more about is that guaranteed money. Since most of them don’t make it to the roster, if they’re a coveted name, they’ll want either a lot of guaranteed money or a real good chance to make the team. In that sense, $85k isn’t nothing, but it’s also not indicative that they really love a guy. For context, in 2021 (with a different cap and minimums), Brock Wright was guaranteed $50,000 and Jerry Jacobs was guaranteed $3,500. But, last year preseason fan-favorite Isaiah Williams got $245,000 guaranteed, and the center Kingsley Eguakun got $240,000 guaranteed. So it’s not like this Gavin Holmes dude is super highly thought of. He’s got a shot to make the roster, but probably on special teams, and his contract doesn’t really indicate anything more special than that.1 point
