Re: Venting Thread
Now lost 2 friends to treatable conditions because they didn’t want to go to the Covid Hospitals to get tests and treatments, putting things off past the tipping point, both losing their lives to “complications” of their conditions, not the conditions themselves. Both were 40/under. Both since Augus...

Re: The Best Dog I Ever Knew
Most of my dog bites have been the simple rule of not aggressively or quickly reaching for unfamiliar/older dogs. I definitely learned my lesson from snuggling with a dogs face near mine when a Chow left me with a facial scar 1 inch from my left eye at age 4. All the others have been because I taste...

Re: The Best Dog I Ever Knew
My uncle once adopted a very skittish shelter dog. It had been abused and had a case of mange that still had the skin healing and tender. Her first 6 months she cowered if you reached for her, she subtly growled if you touched her, and flipped out if you touched her neck or her back. After 6 months ...

They might have kicked the tires on a guy like Brad Stevens but I’m sure it was unofficial back channel shit. Duke would never allow it to come out publicly that a coach told them to go kick rocks.

Lakers struggled 2 seasons ago and half of this season. They are a .600 team going back to 2018-2019. Yet in that time with two huge chunks of struggle including a huge free fall this season, they have a ref that has reffed them to 10 straight wins, and that ref happens to call this game 1, and that...

28 FTs Lakers, 12 FTs Suns
And it was 17-0 at halftime.

Not that anyone did, but this is pinpoint example why you never want opponents to suffer injuries. Suns get royally fucked for being healthy and the Lakers not. With health, Utah, Phoenix, and the LA squads are all 1-4 and not meeting until round 2.
