NBA should start the season with the Cup. 5 groups of 6, either 10 or 20 (2H/2A or 4H/4A) group stage games, groups made by location.

Top 3 each group to single elimination tournament. Best group record gets bye to QFs. All games at home teams arenas, except maybe final at neutral site.

Is the president a pedophile, protecting a ring of similarly rich and powerful pedophiles and protected by them in turn? Yes! Do Pete Hegseth's Nazi tattoos and Elon Musk's Nazi salute indicate they're Nazis? Yes! Would Kristi Noem shoot a human like she shot her dog? Yes! They are ALWAYS that bad!

I was once addicted to TV, literally watched over 200 seasons of TV in 2021 and 2022. Or was it 2022 and 2023? Either way I'm much better at stopping shows that aren't working for me. These are the shows I started then stopped this year. Which 3 would you recommend I start up again?

comically easy solution (companies who sponsor bowl games directly pay players for participation + team payouts for appearing in bowls go directly to players)

problem solved, what's next

"but crime is a real issue, people are worried about crime and you have to take that seriously"

No you don't! If people are getting more scared about crime while crime is happening less frequently, it's a made up issue and you should make a point of yelling that all the time

One of these photos is how HBO's The Watchmen depicted a fascist police force back in 2018

The others are real photos of the ICE agents who are rounding people up and disappearing them in Boston, Denver, L.A., and elsewhere

not sure there's a more embarrassing profession than ICE agent. Oh, you dress like a soldier to abduct sous chefs and throw flashbangs at protesters? Get a real job you loser

When you see any Democrat talk about welcoming Elon into their tent, remember the salute. You saw exactly what you saw, and they saw it too.

The biggest scandal in NBA history was, and STILL is, completely ignored by both local and national media: The Brooklyn Nets blatantly tanking on BEHALF OF THE CELTICS for 1.5 seasons, directly resulting in Tatum and Brown and this ongoing Celtics eastern conference mini-dynasty.
What take would you choose to argue on jubilee with total confidence that you’d crush 20 opponents?

So true, he holds them in such contempt.

I know, norms and all that, but the default Dem position should be:

We think this is illegal but if the courts say you can do this then we are going to rip the guts out of the entire conservative movement. No more Heritage, FedSoc, etc. All of them lose their tax exempt status.

#NBASky Here's my personal NBA uniform rules:
1. 3 uniforms each team, white and the teams 2 primary colors. BOS 3rd black, Nets 3rd gray.
2. Road teams can't wear white.
3. Home teams must wear white at least 20 games during the season. (LAL Sunday only grandfathered in)

The NBA having these semis and finals in Las Vegas on neutral court is just awful. Don't get the leagues obsession with Vegas. Gotta find a way to make it single elimination.The final should be the only game at neutral site, and I'd put it in one of the historic college arenas.

Have you noticed that when the fascists escape to platforms like Gab, nobody follows them there? But when we all come here the nazis try to crash the party?

I love that these small November college basketball tournaments exist bc you do get some great matchups but my god the atmosphere at these mostly empty gyms/ballrooms is just terrible.
