  1. I figured he made more than that at Tennessee. Sounds like he made a mistake.
  2. Props to Ja for coming back after rolling his ankle. That looked nasty.
  3. Cheryl Millers little brother is a terrible broadcaster.
  4. Didn't they broadcast some fights on closed circuit tv in movie theaters?
  5. Bankruptcy was his business model. It wasn't a failure, at least in his eyes. Grotesque and disgusting, but it was absolutely his plan all along. How Trump bankrupted his Atlantic City casinos but still earned millions
  6. Agree with this except maybe the failures. But I have a couple of epic failures, so I might be a bit biased.
  7. Series price is moving a bit. Knicks -400 Pistons +310
  8. He was not kind to the Pistons.
  9. Then I'm sure Kenny Atkinson will appreciate you voting for him.
  10. Pretty odd. Why meet with reporters and not let them record it? Why hold this the day before their one and done playoff game?
  11. If I didn't read it I never would have imagined that was his daughter. 3 of his 4 kids made an apperance on WW. That is what you get for doing crack, Charlie.
  12. A lot of media types are picking Amen for DPOY. Curious to see if he ends up winning it or not.
  13. Sure there are. https://www.ams.usda.gov/rules-regulations/organic/labeling
  14. All of those tax cuts are SOP for a republican politician gearing up for election. I also don't know what a "successful" billionaire is. Are you saying he is not a billionaire?
  15. Then how is JB third for you? Blink twice if you just said that to shut up Pistons fans.
  16. Yeah, that is pretty cool. But I think we acknowledge that when discussing their win total. Kind of double-dipping. I think a stronger argument for Daigneault is their injury problems. Only 3 guys played more than 74 games. Their 2 bigs missed 75 games combined. Chet missed 50 alone.
  17. I don't really care about CotY. But I would never use last season to judge it, since JB is not coaching last year's roster. I would use the Vegas O/U predictions and how teams finished compared to those. Now you see why so many think Atkinson should win it. When picked to win 48 you are not improving on that by beating bad teams. You have to go beat the good teams to get 50+ wins. That is probably more impressive than Detroit beating up on bad teams. OKC set records, so Daigneault gets consideration. Lue might have the best argument for CotY. Winning 50 in a tougher conference is impressive. Can't use the Ivey excuse, since Leonard only played 7 more games than Ivey this year. I think Houston gets some attention for securing the 2nd seed in the west. I would probably go Atkinson Lue Daigneault JB Udoka
  18. Musk and other people on his wealth level don't give a **** about tax cuts. Do you think he gives a damn if he pays a top rate of 39% vs 37%? Especially when you consider his compensation is not salary based. They use the idea of tax cuts to fire up the tribes and keep them squabbling about useless stuff. They want control. Control of the regulatory agencies. Control of the agencies that award government contracts. Control of a justice system that will turn a blind eye to their crimes against humanity. Right now, the FAA is testing the possibility of replacing the current air traffic control system with Starlink. That alone would make him more money than any tax cut. How many NASA contracts is he pushing towards SpaceX? Government is going to get into the AI game eventually. Do you think Musk is pushing xAI to get any of that work? How many EV incentives can he push to sell more of his cars? Using government money to lower the price of his cars is free money for him. Think about Musk having sway over agencies that regulate his businesses. What if he could influence those agencies to write favorable regulations towards Tesla. If those regulations equal a 10% cut to the cost of producing a car, how much is that worth to Tesla stock price? How much is that worth to the guy who owns 400 million shares of the stock? What if he gets his fingers in the DOJ pie? How many corners can he start to cut if he knows he faces no real penalties for cutting them? Unfair business practices, mergers that should never be allowed to happen, unsafe work place environments, unsafe products reaching the consumer. Tax cuts are just a distraction these guys are using to occupy us while they pillage the country.
