2019-2020 Official Regular Season Thread

I saw the video. It's bad.

I shared earlier that my Dad was a police officer for most of my life. I almost always side with the police in these situations.

There is no justification for what those officers did. 4 have been fired, 1 has been arrested and there may be more arrests coming (hopefully there will be).

There is also no justification for the people who are rioting and looting. Especially since the MPD took action so quickly.

I think the rioting could have been avoided had that DA the other day during the press conference said that cop was charged with murder. Obviously that didn't happen. And I think what really set everything off was the fat fella (with the glasses) that stepped to the podium after the DA & had the nerve to say there wasn't enough evidence to charge that racist asshole killer cop with murder.

Yeah.

The video is plenty of evidence to charge. Might not be enough to convict without further investigation, but with a blatant case of police brutality leading to death, charges must be filed immediately. There just isn’t any other way to handle a case like this.

Did you know Kevin Love is the bestest PF in the NBA since he got to the league?

duh.

 

[dtgold88]

And nothing. Don't bother with the misdirection, passive aggressiveness, or fake misunderstanding. You know you post like an asshole and you know why you are seen that way.

If you don't know those things then you truly are the aspie I once thought you were.

I don’t think I am always right. But I am not lying about having inside info on these QBs that is highly predictive. I just can’t say too much about my source without betraying him, so I can understand why someone in your position might be skeptical. But if you had all the details, I am thinking you would come to a similar conclusion that I did.

Also part of the reason I am glad you accepted that bet. Because I can absolutely prove that.

figured that's why you made a bet you probably figured you'd lose. Thing is, I never doubted you could shoot. Hell, I know 60-year-olds I play with that are excellent shooters. Better than many of the 20-30 somethings in the group. I'd take my chances in a shooting contest with many there who are more athletic than I am.

If you want to make a video of you shooting and send it to me, have at it, and feel free to donate to a charity of your choice.

So it sounds like a 22 team format with some sort of regular season, play-in format. Makes sense. All of the teams are going to need some games to get back into the groove but there is just no point in the bottom feeders playing if they have no real chance of a playoff spot.

correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems in what I read the lesser teams would play some games to be included while better teams sit out in one format. Not sure how fair it would be for lesser teams getting warm up games while other teams go in cold.

Of course, doubtful any of these plans effect my team.

The Pistons just needed a little more help to get to the top four. Garbage

Figured acquiring Knight and Henson was for their final push for a title after an upcoming global pandemic that would put a halt to the league for a few months.

We were so close

He's actually kind of passive compared to some of those folks

wow......cannot imagine what I'm missing.

 

[dtgold88]

I've never trolled the PF before but doing it now, this one is so easy. There is no other side to the argument, and yet the Trump brigade is there trying to find one. Too easy.

Idea the same people who defend this probably lost their shit over Kaep's actions is almost a have to see it to believe it circumstance.

and I've seen it.

 

[dtgold88]

That's why this one has gone viral. No video, people would care a lot less and there would be real debate over what happened. But this time, it's all right there on video. That cop is going to jail for manslaughter

General population might not be somewhere he wants to find himself....ever.

It's pretty bad at times

I definitely could lose. But I don’t expect to. I don’t make bets I expect to lose. Although a $100 charitable donation is a price I would happily pay if I do. That was a great idea by you. My video is already in your PM.

correct me if I'm wrong

I honestly can't remember the last time I used mine. The thing's kinda worthless. But not as worthless as wiggy.

That's my job here on SportsHoopla. Keeping people informed.

Remember the bar scene from Star Wars?

Liker that, only minus the humor and charm.

That's the PF.
