I brought beards back and people don’t give me credit for it, but I guess it’s on to mustaches now so I’m irrelevant

We are At War now, according to President Bush, and I take him at his word. He also says this War might last for "a very long time."
Generals and military scholars will tell you that eight or 10 years is actually not such a long time in the span of human history - which is no doubt true - but history also tells us that 10 years of martial law and a wartime economy are going to feel like a Lifetime to people who are in their twenties today. The poor bastards of what will forever be known as Generation Z are doomed to be the first generation of Americans who will grow up with a lower standard of living than their parents enjoyed.
That is extremely heavy news, and it will take a while for it to sink in. The 22 babies born in New York City while the World Trade Center burned will never know what they missed. The last half of the 20th century will seem like a wild party for rich kids, compared to what's coming now. The party's over, folks.

"Then why did you laugh?" and all he does is STUTTER AND STUMBLE LIKE A FUCKING IDIOT. I want to know who this journalist is that pushed him more. We need more journalists like her. Also, take a shot everytime this jackass says "fun". He can't even look at her when he responded.

I agree it was more early season stuff with Walsh and Hugo and the big men when he was emphasizing defensive rebounding, but I could feel it coming last night

Not trying to be a jerk but Hugo didn’t come back until Joe emptied the bench. He’s done this with Hugo and Walsh more than a few times. One mistake that Joe considers too big and they are done for the night.

At least Garza would be getting a couple offensive rebounds

The amount of Medicaid fraud that must be happening in Republican states has to be insane. They only accuse people of shit that they are doing ten times worse.

Between this motherfucker and Matt Shaw it’s been a bad year for Terp athletes

I think an underrated part of why this is going to work is that all five still basically look like themselves, just fifteen years older. No major weight change or plastic surgery or scandals.

Lu Dort, Trey Murphy, Herb Jones, Alex Caruso all fit in the exception. OKC probably need to cut salary next year, Celts can give them that without sending any money out

It’s so awesome that the Celtics will be able to use their mid level or TPE on a wing this offseason instead of a big man. If Queta can keep this up in the playoffs just get Vooch with his bird rights as the backup and that is plenty good for a center rotation

Funny to see how tan the white guys are on the Suns compared to the pale whites on the Celts

The main cast for this show was crazy. Elfman, Lauren Graham, Molly Ringwald, Ron Livingston, and baby Bill Burr!

960 is insanely low. I remember mine but you are a real tool if you are quoting it 30 years later.

Not a great Jaylen game. Lotta out of control plays on offense

Can’t have Jaylen shoot technical free throws with Hauser and PP on the floor
