    Welcome to Election Day 2024,

    So the "Democratic Center-Right, Republican-lite" portion of the Democratic party was responsible for the messaging that focused on vilifying their political opponent, instead of focusing on how she was going to make the country a better place to live? Not sure I buy that, but maybe you're right.

    Welcome to Election Day 2024,

    I'm hoping the takeaway is that vilifying your political opponent can't be the core of your message. That message doesn't resonate with as many people as the far-left think that it does. It may actually have the opposite effect. Also, who advised Kamala not to go on the Joe Rogan podcast? To...

    Taylor Hendricks injury thread

    Such a freak accident. I don't understand how you break a bone and dislocate an ankle in a non-contact situation like that. Didn't even seem like a violent movement at all.

    Remember when this franchise has an identity for 20+ years? That's out the window.

    I know that analytically in today's NBA you have to shoot 3s in volume, but it sure is ugly basketball when you are clanking 75% of them.

    I want to see lots of minutes for the young guys.

    Shams: Utah and Lauri expected to agree to long term deal

    So what's the plan for this season? Win?

    Does Lauri Get Traded?

    Not trading Lauri now, or in the very near future, is going to set this franchise on the path to perpetual mediocrity for the next decade. I'm a baseball fan and enjoy understanding the GM side of major league baseball. In MLB, most franchises know who they are. The Yankees and the Rays are...

    What should we ask from Spurs for Lauri?

    He's going to be moved at some point. We had no idea he would be this good when he was a part of the Donovan trade. We basically won the lottery when it turned out he's awesome, except it made our draft position the last couple years a lot worse. Just a shame he doesn't fit the timeline. The...

    FO intentions for the offseason

    I'm finding harder and harder to remain optimistic about this team. I hope Danny proves me wrong.

    Culture of winning or tank?

    I wish I knew what our plan was to get out of mediocrity.

    The Biden Administration and All Things Politics

    Some valid criticisms. My fear is that the swamp is so big, there is no politician alive that could drain it, and very few that could slow down its growth.

    When does the Hockey Team become the favorite team in the state of Utah?

    I live in Phoenix and have been to several Coyotes games. Growing up in Alaska I played a little hockey. It's an incredibly fun sport to watch in person. Unlike a lot of other sports, NHL games tend to bring in a lot of hard core fans, and less casual fans. So everyone is engaged, yelling, etc...

    Jazz sign Kenneth Lofton to 3 year NG deal

    Maybe he can be Glenn "Big Baby" Davis?

    Comparable rookie years to Keyonte's. (I thought I had linked just the PER 36 min section of each player) Just look at the rookie year Per 36 min

    Good to see. Rookies rarely contribute to winning, but if the numbers are in line with these guys he has a promising future.

    Jazz trade Olynyk and Ochai to Toronto for Kira Lewis, Otto Porter, and a 2024 1st round pick

    What exactly is our plan with Clarkson? Seems odd to me that he's still on this team, as much as I love the guy.

    Get Otto Porter

    Wow, I had no idea how much this guys career has fallen off a cliff. Had to look up his current season numbers. Ugh. Seems like a candidate to be waived.

    Jazz trade Olynyk and Ochai to Toronto for Kira Lewis, Otto Porter, and a 2024 1st round pick

    I think they came to the realization that it's easier to coach an offensively competent player to defend than it is to coach a quality defender to play offense (shoot and dribble).
