Don't know what you do, but that's an odd job you have that you can't call in sick, even if you genuinely are. Never have heard of an "occurrence." But I guess I can see the 6 occurrences in 12 months getting someone fired.

That's what sick days are for. Pick a Friday, call in sick, go to the game.

Sorry to hear.. Sounds like they took your order without having stock on hand? Were they the Venoms? I don't think those have gone through a second production run. The originals did and there is plenty of Stealth stock out there. I wanted the Venoms so I paid a premium on Ebay. It was worth it...

I don't get why having 6 Sunday road games and 35 road games on other days is worse than having 3 Sunday road games and 38 on other days. And would 3 Sunday home games be any moe advantageous than playing 0 on Sunday? We still face the EXACT same opponents. We still play the exact same amount of...

Yes, intuitively, I would think the worst WC teams would have the most difficult schedules (again, depending on who they play 3x vs. 4x) followed by the worst EC teams because everyone they play has a better record. Conversely the easiest schedules should be the elite WC teams followed by the...

Giannis leads, but does Greece have much of a team? I'd probably say Jokic. Hopefully the US defeats Serbia, but US doesn't have much in the way of bigs. I can see Jokic having some monster games and Serbia going far.

Wouldn't it always be unbalanced due to being in the WC - 4 games vs most WC teams but just 2 against EC teams (since the EC has a poorer W/L percentage than the WC)? The only real differences are which WC teams Utah faces just 3 times. And, as Utah gets better, SOS gets better as Utah displaces...

To be fair, Hubie Brown was an excellent choice. Took a team that won 28 games the previous season to 50 wins.

I'm a fanboy, I guess. I've never bought a player's jersey, rarely buy shorts or t-shirts unless they're on sale. Lat year paid >$100 on a pair of shoes for the first time (Hoka's for medical reasons). But I'm now the proud owner of Donovan's first three colorways. Probably will keep it going...

Well, most good centers in the NBA are all non-US.

Reasonably priced on Ebay. Shipping from S Korea, I think.

I need money after paying a premium on Ebay for Venoms. How much to change my vote? JK. I did pay too much for the shoes, but wouldn't sell out.

Too bad I voted already. I could have made a nice little profit selling a swing vote.

Mitchell with nice drive and kick out, then a steal...only to follow up with a missed 3 and awkward missed layup. Tatum looks great.

Exum doesn't have a $30M+ contract. Love declined to 38.5%/36% last season in just 22 games. At his age, you have to ask if he is in a steep decline in shooting AND health. He does rebound, I'll give you that. Exum is a very good defender who you can throw at guards. Love can't guard a water...

Fox, Donovan and Tatum all playing well. Mitchell is 4-6. US going to be vulnerable inside. Edit: Guess he's 3-5 with 3 assists.

Fox is ffffffffffffffffffffffffffast!

Or screw Rudy by having one of the most difficult schedules to start of the season, with Utah doing a damn good job to just be around .500, but creating no impetus for Rudy - or Donovan - to get all-star consideration.

And then Hayward would be asking for the max for a 10-yr vet. We dodged a huge bullet when he bailed on us!

The drawback is that if you lose or forget your cell phone you're ******. I've never lost a wallet. Cell phone? A couple of times. I hate Apple and I'm not too fond of Android. Nor do I think a bloody phone should cost damn near $1K. I'm likely going back to basics soon. Give me just what I need...
