In order for him to take that step, he's going to have to be a full-time player, not a platooner.

No tanking teams should get a national spotlight and any money that affords them.

My first thought was Barbara Streisand, but that can't be right, can it?

Just to be clear, federal spending is NOT "taxpayer money." It's public money, to be sure, but the U.S. government does not rely on tax revenues to spend. Here's a deep-dive intro:

again we do not really do a good job of explaining how wealthy people like Jeff Bezos are

his net worth is $253.2 billion.
so he could take one million dollars, and just light it on fire
and then do it again tomorrow
and again the day after that
and then do it every day for 693 years and 8 months

The Trust Trap What do Jeff Bezos, Bari Weiss, and RFK Jr. have in common?

New from me: What do Jeff Bezos, Bari Weiss, and RFK Jr. have in common?
Each has used the trust trap: they bemoan a loss in institutional legitimacy as a justification for radical actions that further undercut trust in their institutions. 🧵

So what I'm hering is the ends justify the means. It's just me, I'm sure, but I don't like those seasons as a fan.

They had 11 guys on that roster with 2 years experience or less. They couldn't help but lose and shame on you for making me go back and remember that season. Yuck.

I don't like it, and it's not worse than a gambling/point shaving scandle but only losers tank.

This is playing out now in the NBA, where teams are purposely tanking by sitting star players so their teams will lose so they can get better draft picks. And please don't try and tell me that technically, they are not breaking the rules. Cuban says it's okay because the NBA is about entertainment.

Competition played under fair and equal rules, not some scripted performance. I'd go to the theater if I wanted to see that.

Instead of a cabal of pedophiles, I think it's more apt to use Gang Of Pedophiless, aka GOP.
