Whether it is tampering or not, I don't believe NBA has any ability to regulate that unless the team as a legal business entity is doing it

Under the current plan, Bel Air wonโ€™t be getting a subway station or a ventilation shaft, but Rosen still worries about the effects of digging and operating the line.

Thoughts on abolishing the draft order and turning draft picks into the # of rookie "free agents" a team must sign? The pick round is just certain salary thresholds, still tradable but eliminates some of their value, turn the TV product into some form of college signing day announcements

If you ever doubt yourself or your physical abilities, just remember the high school you went to is a professional athlete factory, so therefore you are one too

I recognize they are under a lot of pressure and scrutiny (rightly so). I just don't want it to be used as a reason to grab power away from things that are working vs things that aren't

Why can't we empower the nonprofits and grassroots volunteers who are doing the work? It's tax money so city council should have some oversight (including critiquing their outreach and decision-making process), but there's a history of gov dictation of these types of efforts failing spectacularly

I sometimes wonder if people's fear and demonization of other cultures is actually a result of the absence of cultural engagement in themselves and the uncomfortable feeling to recognize it

The advertising during the game stood out for a high number of celebrity cameos and advertisements for futuristic technology, particularly for products like electric vehicles, virtual reality and cryptocurrency.[136][137][138][139] There were many cryptocurrency-related ads drawing comparisons to dot-com commercials during Super Bowl XXXIV in 2000,[140][141] leading some to refer to the game as the "Crypto Bowl".[142][143]

It's cool that the ASL interpreters get introduced for the anthems, but why not continue to show them on the broadcast during the performance? Is there a separate tv broadcast entirely for the ASL community?

A good amount of the community dev class I'm taking right now has led to discussions of top-down gov policy and how ineffective (if not incredibly harmful) it ends up being. Yet here we go again ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Makes you wonder if some of the past players had been able keep form and play longer, what their totals might be. Rosewall is the only one in the vicinity of # slam appearances

I remember when Fed passed Sampras for the most major titles. To think in the 16 years since then, 3 players will have over 20 titles and another on pace to match

To me, this is just doing *something* to bolster the rotation in case one of Sidy/Love can't be converted via other trades. Duop unfortunately didn't have a future on this team regardless of the injury. I do hope the Hawks give him a chance next year

Would really be something if, when the Wolves and Warriors are supposed to play tomorrow, they instead refuse to play in solidarity, protesting the federally mandated terrorism that is happening in the streets.

Iโ€™m completely fed up with elected Representatives saying shit like, โ€œRepublicans will tell you behind closed doors that they donโ€™t agree with what ICE is doingโ€.

Playtime is over. Professional courtesy no longer exists.

Name them, record them, and make it public.
