Randy Buehler

RIP Kai Budde. Fuck cancer.

He has been incredibly fun to root for on the field (Vanderbilt alum here), but he's going to be a professional wrestler within 3 years. Probably 2.

I want this to be Buffy Season 3, but it’s probably just Stranger Things.

I think we’ll get Adam Silver taking over for Cathy by Jan 9th, and that will (finally) move things along.

The TV money is quadrupling, starting with next season. (Also billionaires are lining up to pay $250 million for expansion teams.)

They start precisely when they intend to … they have just all chosen to advertise a start time that is fake.

I don’t know what Wizards has done with their archives so I’m not sure. Glad you’re enjoying it!

I did. She's very young and the genre is very different, but channel a much younger you and you'll likely enjoy it.

What is the case for using revenue targets tied to raise sizes rather than just calculating as % of BRI? Is it just so you can do lifetime of the CBA math instead of year-to-year math??

I think he meant what he said. The owners/NBA want to stick with the old model of set numbers and minimal raises. Which is complete bullshit when revenue could easily double again. Seems to me this is the fundamental issue they're arguing over: some % of BRI versus set numbers and fixed raises.

All-time legendary fan moment. Unprecedented.

tomorrow night

This was fun. Both the game design and the execution are done well!

I'd be ok with 7 :-)

the title series was a 3-0 sweep too

Sure they've beaten us 3 in a row (though 2 were incredibly close), but go back one more series and the Storm beat the Aces for the title just 5 years ago! Becky might own Noelle Quinn, but the Aces do not own the Storm ...

I have never wanted to tag a total stranger and share an image more than when I saw this and thought of @brianphillips.bsky.social

Not just you, she’s worked out amazingly well / Notre Dame must not have been utilizing her as well as they could.

Suddenly the Storm's 8-10 home record makes more sense, but that's weird.

Ha! Very fair!

The defense is the bigger difference right now. It seems like she has all the tools to be amazing, but does not resemble Wemby's impact on that end (yet?).

I was talking today about how I'm not used to seeing someone her size with such good hands and such touch around the run, and my Spurs-fan wife just looked at me ... it WAS lazy, but it has circled all the way around to reasonable again (especially if she keeps shooting 3's).

They only want Boston if it's the current NBA owner. Having a different owner of the WNBA team would lead to the W and the MNBA having misaligned interests. To be clear this is all complete bullshit and they're screwing over the tribe, but what it is is evidence the NBA has the real power. :-(

Look I’m just happy she was on the floor for her defense after multiple teams in this losing streak cooked Malonga (especially the Sparks). Baby steps.

It’s Gabby.

@joshlloyd.bsky.social My league (9 cat hth) is doing all round reversal: 1st pick in the first round drafts last in every other round. Would you still want a top 2 pick? And surely 12th is better than everything 3-11, right?

lol, well done!

It's our pick and therefore a good trade.

A time machine for Alysha Clark. (Aka bench production/depth.)

Gabby Williams. My god. As of halftime she has 10 points, 3 steals, 5 boards, and fully 8 assists. AND she’s held Paige Bueckers to … zero. (Paige has 2 points off a transition layup versus Wheeler.) She’s running the offense while Skylar is out and also running the D. Triple double incoming. #WNBA
