The Art of the Take

How are you guys about to go on a hiatus when you have tweets from one of the hosts saying: “Just sitting here on this Tuesday night feeling blessed that we’re going to experience a full season of Alec Bohm this year.”

Gentlemen, I’ve solved it. I have the order of events for defending a bad “star” player. 1. Sports media member give negative opinion on player 2. Reject negative opinion regardless of reasoning 3. “Star” player shows signs of media member being right 4. Defend star player due to failings by coach, supporting cast, front office, ownership, or better yet all 4 5. Star player fully fails 6. “Wow the negativity of the sports media ruined” player

People acting like the food at Wawa is good is Philly thirst. If you told someone you were getting diner from a 7-11 they would act like you were a lunatic. So why do people defend Wawa like there life depends on it? Just enjoy your overrated Gas station food and let the rest of us eat real food like civilized people.

If Gen Xers don’t consider NBA players from the 50s and 60s in the same conversation as players from the 80s and 90s because “the game and its players have evolved”, why do they think it’s a cardinal sin to think the same about those players and the players today? Stop kidding yourself, a 220lb Dennis Rodman isn’t staying in front of Anthony Davis or Giannis, and if you put a real center on them, they’d take the ball out and spin them like a top. Any above-average player in today’s NBA would dominate in a league headlined by Jordan, Bird, and Magic. Open your eyes.
