You can see why the whole league is as annoyed by what doesn't get called on OKC as much as by what does get called for them

Jordan Walsh and Ron Harper Jr. keying a run in OKC, just like we expected when the season started

JB getting booted and no PP against the Spurs and now no Tatum or White against OKC really took the shine off this road trip

The Democrats deserve to be destroyed for attacking our civil rights as part of their facilitation of a genocide. They are ALSO a hindrance to having an actual left party in this country that would be the countervailing force against the GOP and rapacious capitalism.

I wrote an Eagle, CO tweet, deleted it, wrote a helicopter tweet, deleted it

“Sources: Adebayo heading to Eagle, CO to challenge another of Bryant’s records” seems even darker than a joke about an accident where a kid died

I almost made a very similar joke to that Onion headline yesterday and chickened out and now I have to live with the shame

I think I speak for many of the people in that first group when I say that a reason that the Democratic Party establishment must be crushed is so that there is an avenue to actually fighting the Republican Party.

This is the best lede I've seen in a tech story in...years? There should be an award just for ledes.

Is Marcus Banks Jr. the junior to that Marcus Banks?

FIFA is going to move all Iran's games to Canada or Mexico and then if they have a chance to advance out the group stage, Infantino himself will ref their last game to make sure they don't

Tweet from Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz: Justice has been done. I welcome the decision of the Chief Military Prosecutor, Major General Itai Ofir, to close the Sde Teiman cases against IDF soldiers and to cancel the indictment against them. This trial was born in sin by the previous Military Advocate General, using a blood libel against IDF soldiers and criminal investigation methods, and I am glad that justice has been done and the trial has been canceled. The role of the IDF's legal system is to protect and safeguard IDF soldiers who engage heroically in war against cruel monsters, and not the rights of the terrorists of Hamas. I am convinced that the decision will lead to a new path.

The Defense Minister of Israel says it was "blood libel" to go after Israeli soldiers caught on camera raping a Palestinian.

do the people who are constantly asking everyone to put alt text on posts realize that I am driving while posting? do you want someone to get killed ?

Cities in Vermont and Maine are experiencing some of the same tactics that ICE has been using across Minnesota since December, and facing lots of resistance.

Tombstone Wins aren't my dream design it's just the design that I think would improve the league and have a chance of being implemented. My dream of dissolving the league and re-forming as an association that combines the best of European soccer w/ the best of US franchise model seems unlikely.

Part of my proposed model that doesn't matter because no one in the league would ever care what I say includes a small lottery slice for teams that win out of the play-in

I think there is an inherent check on a lot of early season tanking but it won't eliminate it entirely. If the model is "losses before date plus wins after date" then there really does need to be some floor on how many losses you can accrue, even with that natural desire to win at the start.

I am once again begging newspaper and magazine sites to let me pay $0.50 or $1.00 or something to read a single article. I'm not going to subscribe but I will give you money to read something that interests me. You used to be able to buy one issue when it was physical media!

Drone strikes in Haiti.
Drone strikes. In Haiti.
By private contractors.
They’re killing Haitians for private profit & the world barely pays attention.
The story of Haiti is the story America likes to tell about itself. Except there, it’s true. And the west has never stopped punishing Haiti for it

Football and tax dodging, the true American pastimes

The Amico/Amick Rubric has fallen

If Jeff Green continues to play ~30 games/season he'll pass it right around the end of the 2038 season. I'm not ruling it out.

Both Lowe and Bontemps have again mentioned a lottery system that pivots to wins counting for odds. It won't be the exact system I advocate for but it seems like there's actual momentum for at least putting a system like that to a vote.

Well that seems backwards
