Not to exaggerate but I do think that a Spurs-Warriors playoff series could be the ultimate battle of good and evil

I’m now just past halfway in Final Fantasy Tactics and I fear that I have played too many better tactics games. Really enjoy the story (as I do for most dark fantasy but not “grimdark” nonsense RPG worlds) but the actual map to map gameplay feels small, disjointed, and steps behind other stuff.

The schedule has set this team up for a very funny “resurgence” from games 20-50, just because the brutal start means a very soft middle of the schedule and they can’t deal anyone before then anyway. I hope they don’t try to get better at the deadline because of it!

i can’t talk about sports gambling anymore without sounding like a crank but i do believe legalized sports gambling is like 15-20% responsible for our current dystopia

Doug Christie I hope you come back to TV after this

Russ may genuinely be the only guy on this roster that cares about the results of the games. Which is fair, honestly.

LaVine and Sabonis disappear in the half court game in 4th quarters and DeMar has patented a way to score 18 in a game without ever being either seen or heard. Every fourth quarter is an exercise of guys waiting around for someone else to do something good.

The NBA will eventually give up on these ridiculously stupid courts but they’ll randomly appear to ruin highlight montages for years to come.

bro if you're counting months you're already guilty

Tuned into a tied Kings game in the 4th. Wolves immediately went on a 9-0 run, including a made open 3 off a missed free throw.

This is not a thought that makes much in the way of coherent sense, but the Wolves court is bad in a very “Nicki Minaj is in Call of Duty now” way.

The point guard on the other team has to wear Under Armour because of Steph and he gets to wear just normal good shoes. Brutal.

Very very obvious observation but the quarters Sabonis actually plays well the Kings actually look like a good basketball team

Haven’t tuned into the Kings game yet but it looks like Domantas Sabonis’ first half tonight would be his best full game this year?

Really funny that the last viable defense left at this point with the text available is “he tried to stop Epstein himself,” then he does this

We did it, we got Dennis Schröder benched

Greatest Emirates NBA Cup comeback in history starts tonight

F1 teams should not a new separate wiki page every time they rebrand. there is no reason the red bull junior team needs individual pages for toro rosso, alpha tauri, and now racing bulls. that’s asinine

NEW: DOJ issued warrant to Starlink over systems allegedly used in wire fraud and money laundering operations aimed at Americans; @lhn.bsky.social and @mattburgess1.bsky.social have the scoop

Some of you never had a message deleted by a GameFAQs moderator and it shows

Basically saying "if you do crime for me, I won't only pardon you--I'll give you millions of dollars of public money." Truly unprecedented level of corruption www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Flynn pled guilty!!!

Everyone on this site is very impressed with an interviewer who can consistently get people to hoist themselves on a petard of their own, but nobody on this site understands the same premise when it's not written as a transcript.

It seems pretty bad that all of the most annoying people in Alabama college sports are flooding the state's Republican primaries but I think McCarron might be a new low watermark. Bruce Pearl believes in things I would describe as alarming, but he believes in things.

mafia president corrupting the DOJ “…the only offer on the table was that I needed to resign by 5pm that day or the DOJ would basically rain hell on UVA…If I did not resign that day, I was told that the DOJ would extract/block 100s of millions of dollars from UVA before they would even negotiate.”

You wonder if there's ever any self-reflection, ever a moment of thinking, man, that was rough, that I had to say that as part of my job, that just sucked

I’m curious how this will impact Fox, who signed to Under Armour and Curry last year. I hope he’s going with Steph, it’s an awkward fit but I would like to buy some not Under Armour Fox shoes to play in.

It looks like the 963 lost its dive planes and the Mustang GT3 added two sets. Did Multimatic just move the dive planes from one car to the other and call it two evos done?

Plaid is fun. The factory livery is a lot better.

Disappointingly this interview was not conducted by the correct person on the staff of this publication

NEW: In text exchanges with a Bill Gates adviser from early in the first Trump presidency, Jeffrey Epstein presented himself as intimately familiar with Trump's then-current views, and even capable of passing messages from the White House to Gates through an intermediary. w/ @leahfeiger.bsky.social

Fred Smith rips Brett Favre as a guy with a Wikipedia page that has two levels of subheadings in the "controversies" section

everything should be like this

Going on television to point to numbers on a screen that say "people don't like when the president is directly connected to the world's most famous pedophile," a surefire sign that the country is in a good place

Welcome home Will Power

Interesting to me that none of Cadillac, Porsche, or Acura seem to have used their aero evos as an excuse to change the styling on their cars. Three years is enough time that road car styling has slightly changed, but only BMW is adjusting its GTP for that in a year where all four are using jokers.

Well that's a tremendous bummer but I would also watch a Rian Johnosn-led Peter Dinklage Columbo Wait what do you mean he's taking over as the character

Valentino Rossi is either the ninth or tenth best driver that runs a BMW in the FIA World Endurance Championship, so it's no wonder that he was being looked at for one of the two one-off Indy 500 seats capable of winning the race

Hunter-Reay is a perfectly fine hire for Indy, I just don't get why it has to be locked up on November 13th.

There are six bad teams in the West this year and two of them owe their picks (protected 1-8 in the case of Utah, so pretty likely to stay put) to OKC. Further complicating this is that only one of them planned to be bad this year

I am not going to get excited about any WEC 963 chickens before they hatch, but if it does happen, the Proton/Penske tie-up is more or less the framework I most heard as speculation at Petit Le Mans. Not saying anyone was suggesting it was coming, but it was a very common theory for a way forward.

CarPlay, huh? Tesla is really trying everything but "develop normal new cars"

would be an ideal time for bluesky to add group dms and the ability to send media in dms now since on twitter they made dms all weird and wonky now alas

Who knew???????

Check out the first images from the IMSA-sanctioned test at Daytona International Speedway, featuring updated GTP machinery from Porsche, Acura, Cadillac and BMW. (Photos: John Dagys)

"Ope" - Tyronn Lue

The West: you’re gonna have a bad time!

This was the second or third easiest of Sacramento’s first 17 games btw

The Kings are only half a game ahead of the New Orleans Pelicans, who are on pace to be the bleakest dumpster fire since the Nets that won Boston a title

It’s so good to see Doug McDermott out there. Just as Dellavedova was a human victory cigar on the 22-23 team, McDermott is some sort of herald of tragedy that appears to hit four threes in six minutes at the end of the worst games since 2024.
