I get it, but I still despise it. I don’t want to see a team not trying to win games.
Stop rewarding the teams with the worst records with the best draft picks.

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

FOX: Where’s the protest against the regime that's killing people in the street right now?

Trent: They are doing those today. It’s called the ICE protests

FOX: Are they talking about Iran at the ICE protests?

Trent: No, I think they are talking about the regime that is shooting people in the face

It’s crazy how much teams rely on analytics for every aspect of the game, but then are willing to lose 2 yards right before a game winning FG attempt instead of trying to gain a few with one of the greatest rushers in NFL history. Make % for a 40 yd attempt is much better than 45 yd attempt.

This is not accurate without qualifying it to β€œat worst the 2 seed”. They would still be able to get the 1 seed.

Risacher had his arms extended making contact, maybe that wasn’t the only cause of the fall, but it looks like a reasonable foul call, surprising that the NBA thought it was IC

The losing team had 20 more FGA, too bad they hadn’t started keeping rebounding stats. Crazy they has a postseason game to determine who got the 3 seed in division playoffs.
