Bro,that’s why I had to stop responding for a bit.

Shit, I felt dirty…lol

I like fucking with him. He deserves it for the crapola he spews like a manure spreader.

Marvel seems to be on a downward trajectory in terms of quality though (at least in the movies), whereas the last two DC movies were arguably their best in quite a while.

Marvel has just saturated the market to the point of burnout.

It was cool during the pandemic.

But, too many movies and tv shows back, to back, to back, to back….

They don’t really give you a chance to get excited anymore.

Why go to the movies when the shit will hit Disney Plus in 30-45 days?

Especially when it’s a G League version Avenger like Antman.

I liked both the last movies.

But, that shit is mom and pop corner store in comparison to the Mall of America excitement of Ironman/Captain America/Avengers movies.

Thoughts?

NBA trade rumors: this Celtics rival is interested in Kevin Love as he finalizes his buyout (nbssports)

Shams Charania is saying the Heat are the favorites to get him.

My DC fanatic son did too, I think I'm outgrowing this stuff.

Probably for the reasons mentioned by others.

Marvel has gone slapstick, fart jokes, preachy stupidity.

It’s annoying.

DC has gone the polar opposite.

Well, until Shazam is released.

But, it’s supposed to be stupid.

And the best ones will hit a sweet spot


The dc animated series stuff does a great job being a serious super hero show without being all grim and darkness all the time

My favorite interpretation of superman is not that it’s a burden, but something he looks forward to doing.

I haven’t liked Clark Kent is the real person As a theory because, he moved to metropolis and the daily planet because of superman, not Clark Kent. So he should enjoy getting out there to strut his stuff, because otherwise it’s like Lebron James never playing in the nba and being an accountant

 

[Pastafazul]

Are we going the religious persecution route or are you implying he’s selfish?

Y’all get on me for this but it is what it is!

My day they gave you time for observance.

Nothing interferes with the team ! NOTHING

for us, Easter Sunday, church 8 am and on field by 11 am.

Understand now? Or ya gonna hurl personal shit at me ?

Come to the light, Lakers haters...

 

[Pastafazul]

“This dumbbell is making defend the Lakers. Dammit.”

Wait what?

No, not personal.

I was really just trying to decipher what you meant.

He isn’t the first Muslim player in sports.

Hell, The Dream was a devout Muslim and observed Ramadan.

Nobody ever complained.

Which is why I asked if it is the religion that bothers you or the fact that he’s selfish.

I’m not passive aggressive, I’m aggressive aggressive.

If I was trying to give you shit, believe me, it would be obvious.


Hakeem Olajuwon: The NBA basketball star helped the Houston Rockets to back-to-back championships in 1994 and 1995, despite the fact he strictly observed Ramadan and fasted for a whole month. In 2008 the Rockets proposed a monument of him outside their stadium, but were forced to make a sculpture of his jersey instead as Olajuwon's Muslim faith forbade any statue bearing a likeness to be put up.

The devout athletes whose faith has affected their performances

Religious athletes face a tough task when trying to balance their faith with their chosen sport and sometimes the two strong elements of their life are simply not compatible and something has to give.

AD's not all star material anyway.

And now that I think about it the Lakers aren't NBA material.

Pre-injury he certainly was.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Alright, off to the Quantum Realm.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Pre-injury he certainly was.

He’s played as many games as Paul George.

Most definitely should have gotten in over JJJ.

 

[trojanfan12]

I could definitely see the Lakers swapping AD for Kyrie in the offseason.

lol

And to think...people make fun of DJ for his takes.

 

[trojanfan12]

Lol, yea I’m here , wtf Would y’all do without me?

NERDS

Let's find out.

Go away and we'll try it out.

If we find ourselves struggling, someone will contact you.

 

[trojanfan12]

You don’t think Bron is trying?

Guys 38.

Hard to carry 13 other Dudes for 82 games.

Yep, last night showed what may be the best thing about the trades.

Lebron played 29 minutes. The fewest he's played in a game this season.

AD only played 30 minutes.

If they can keep winning with those 2 playing fewer minutes...it could be big if they make the playoffs.

 

[DJ Fieri]

You can’t even find someone to make you dinner

Wrong.

I have a wife, not living in mom's basement waiting for her to make me a grilled cheese with tomato soup.

 

[DJ Fieri]

He can absolutely put his team in a better position than it is even at 38.


AD and RW and schroder? No excuse for this team to be sub500

How many games has AD missed due to injury and how many did RW play for the Lakers?

 

[DJ Fieri]

From Wall to RW?

Both can't shoot.

If Habachi doesn't start playing better.......let him walk as a FA or flip him in a sign and trade.
