    2024 NFL Draft 1st round gamethread: Maye the odds be ever in your favor WITH SPOILERS

    Maybe I’m overly sensitive to this as a Jewish guy, but while I’m not speaking to anyone’s motivations, referring to a young African-American male as a “thug” based on his appearance sounds exactly like the same coded bigotry to me that people use with Jews and money/influence/the media/etc.

    Yeah, I just hit my breaking point. I love BB and his insight, but the juice/squeeze ratio was waaaaay off.

    It was the whole basis of the best case I could make for drafting MHJ over Maye: surely both Penix and Nix would be available at 34. Now, can you imagine if they had taken MHJ or traded down? We’d have a Eugene Chung-like situation.

    2024 NFL Draft 1st round gamethread: Maye the odds be ever in your favor WITH SPOILERS

    I like CFB, but I know a ton of people in a similar boat and I’ll never understand the preference for a level of football (however entertaining) that has measurably inferior talent. Grew up in Mississippi and that was as good as you could get? Sure, I get that. Live in Atlanta, went to Emory...

    I’m guessing you didn’t mean it this way, but it reads exactly like calling Bob Kraft a neurotic money grubbing globalist.

    Celtics vs Da Culture - Round 1 (FIGHT!)

    And a perfect example of why I tell people that much like Max Kellerman and boxing, Simmons can typically be ignored...unless he's talking about basketball or gambling. The Celtics do need to fix this--the Heat never looked uncomfortable beyond the arc last night. It's good to see level-headed...

    Shitty game and it’s fair to question whether the coaching talent differential matters. But it’s still just one loss. Get it together, win game three, and never speak of tonight again.

    ECQF Game 3: 4/24/24 @ Tarranna

    This is such a nicer place than the Celtics game thread tonight.

    So this may not have been my most prescient comment.

    This thread is gonna be great to read after we go lights out in the 4th and Miami’s three point shooting reverts to the mean.

    I’d love for him to sit the rest of the quarter. Something isn’t right with him tonight.

    I honestly don’t understand leaving Tyler Herro unguarded from three.

    April 24. 2024 Beat the Heat

    I would’ve agreed with this in the 2nd quarter, but it’s now at least as likely that it just isn’t KP’s night. We really ought to be seeing more of Al, and honestly, we should be able to overcome an off-night for KP against a Butler-less Heat…just not playing like it right now.

    They probably can’t keep this pace on threes, but it’s going to require the Cs to actually defend from behind the arc. Given how it went, we deserve to be down by way more than 1. Right the ship and this is still ours to lose.

    Round 1, Game 2 -- Toronto @ Boston

    They can’t overturn this

    April 21, 2024: Beat the Heat

    Or, like, a couple minutes ago. I get that it isn’t a 30-pt lead, but starters shouldn’t be in right now

    April 21, 2024: Beat the Heat

    I’m happier with their new policy of doubling the previous quarter’s victory
