    BALLS.409 The secret to a much happier life

    This week: the game we’d been waiting the entire NBA playoffs for, mid-00s A-League, sentient cotton buds, putting your body in positions it shouldn’t be, meaningless levers, choosing to not go all-in, props to the Mavs front office, unplayable lies, fearing the worst title team in recent history, stop listening to internet effwits, doing Draymond out of a job, outside the NBA, media rights and wrongs, a weird and sad and stupid piece of rubbish, comfort food for old people, Don Henley doing play-by-play, horns into sloppy, native tributes, there are multiple places like home, choices have ramifications, the moment the Nuggets lost the series, the last dynasty, the Wolves’ one run, ‘all-NBA snub’ snubs, optimistic futurism, EPL workload complaints, our first Leeds update in a long while, Beeso’s coaching idols, hors catégorie content, making it to the end with your bits still functioning and the Brick with Eyes.

    BALLS.408 A message to you, Rudy

    BALLS.408 A message to you, Rudy

    This week, nearing the 3am-ugly-lights stage of the NBA playoffs second round: fast forwarding to the inevitable, being criminally French, views from the podcastariat, Doc complaining about someone else’s takes lacking nuance, Denver’s counterpunch worked until it didn’t, silence your notifications, Dortmund uber alles, good stories don’t make good contests, we can’t count, benching Giddey, Trae Young’s fit, draft dodging, losing on purpose gets an appropriate karma response, strategically advantageous ACLs, reasons the East sucks, Ange is disgusted to discover the depths of the absolute loser mentality at the heart of his club and of England as a nation, tinpot leagues, pay to play and being at absolutely no risk of dying with the music in you.
