except for about music. :heh:
Nah I hate that even more. Plenty of good older music and plenty of good newer music too.

Music is different though, there's literal science about how people will always love the music they listened to from around age 12-20 more than anything they listen to after. It just imprints more deeply then. And it doesn't have to be music that's current then, just when you pick it up. My 19 year old son's favorite band is Green Day...he will never love music he listens to in the future more than that.

There's a little of that with other culture like sports and movies, we all remember being young fondly so of course the stuff we liked then is 'better'

It's because they walked 5 miles in the snow to play in the games after working all day in the coal mine.

It was also uphill both ways with nothing but a cold pancake in my back pocket for lunch...I know, I lived it.

I trained my kids properly, I always had "my music" playing (my son was singing along to BB King when he was 3 lol). My kids liked it and listen to it to this day...they still have their newer music that they like as well. But they tend to listen more to older music.

Back when the men were men and the livestock were scared.

We have that in common, so glad I got to see BB in Vegas when I did. Buddy Guy is a very under appreciated blues guy too. More modern guys I like are Keb Mo and Robert Cray. Stevie kind of crossed over but he had some blues in him too. Was thinking about him the other day and how much great new stuff we have missed out on from him. He was a true genius.

What's so bad about this?
I guess they don’t think they will get fair value back for Porter? I have to think with any of those players mentioned they could get bench help too which is what they need. Their top 4 can compete with anyone.

I don’t think porter is anything special. Basic 3rd option and a mediocre defender. Lavine as a 3rd option is better than porter because he is a more consistent scorer and don’t even get me started on Ingram. He is so much better than porter as long as he’s healthy

Well I was wondering how the Thunder would come out in Orlando after that debacle the other night. Good answer, tomorrow night is the test.
