Regarding basketball being played 3 on 3, vs 5 on 5: I still like the 5 on 5 game much better. Things can happen in a 5 on 5 game that just aren’t possible in 3 on 3. There are aggravating parts of NBA games that bug me… walking the ball upcourt, etc. But I do prefer the traditional format.

Good stuff regarding the structure of the league. Better pay, players having a financial stake in the league itself, investing in better refereeing of games, keeping ticket prices low, etc. Too many differences between WNBA and Unrivaled to list them all. But generally, very much improved.

OK. So, I just watched my first Unrivaled League game, as was suggested I do. Wow, it’s very fast. It was the Lunar Owls vs the Mist game in February of this year. Now I generally know what these games look/feel like. The Unrivaled game is much more fun to watch than the men’s 3 on 3 games.

I haven't watched Unrivaled. I looked it up and see that the length of the court is considerably shorter, while the width is almost the same.

My main criticism remains, this is just a way for pro basketball to reach into the wallets of fans of BB. Can't the NBA just do an offseason league for free?

Nothing against your reporting on this. But, in regards to 3 on 3 hoops, I just don't get it, for the men or women. As a sport it isn't nearly as fun to watch. Basketball, full court, 5 on 5, is the way the sport was meant to be played. Full stop.

This stuff is just another way to make money.

WTF does that mean. Trump mentions that they will take care of SS, but he didn't say they would take care of medicare? WTF!

My body is shaking with laughter! Thank you for this. :)

Even with the mind-boggling, reprehensible, fascist actions of the Trump regime, this report that the Attorney General of the US is the lobbyist for the GEO private prison group is a hard right turn in the road to the Twilight Zone. Aye-ca-effin-rumba!

A great stocking stuffer for sure!

Perfect response!

So what is it going to take to get this scum of a pond impeached? That would seem to be the only thing left to do.

Mr. Booker would be a great replacement for the weak and ineffective man currently in the position of Minority Leader. Schumer is way too old and is devoid of the energy level required to be standing up against a fascist takeover of the Republican party. Make this happen!!

I want a magic lamp with a genie inside. 3 wishes you say... :)

Wiggs @wiggsdannyboy1.bsky.social · Jul 23

thanks for adding the actual report, I should have done so myself.

It is common for police departments to reject applicants that have higher IQ scores (generally, not above 104 to 110) due to them possibly becoming bored with the job... among other things.

WHAT!!!!!!!!

Wiggs @wiggsdannyboy1.bsky.social · Jul 17

It was beautiful to watch! More of this please! Especially seeing that the D votes never stand in the Rs way to pass fascist legislation.

Wiggs @wiggsdannyboy1.bsky.social · Jul 6

Gave me a chest shaking chuckle there... thank you!

Wiggs @wiggsdannyboy1.bsky.social · Jul 6

Definitely turn the sound on. :)

Woodie approves!

If you have this opinion, then you probably didn't watch the video. He talks about this, saying that his attempt to get information from the staffers didn't open up until after the election. So, he couldn't really put the book together and find a publisher until much later.

Just as I thought... you didn't bother to watch the interview because you have all the information you need. Reporting on problems in a political campaign doesn't just happen on one side. When there is a candidate who is not up to being a leader then that must be reported, for the good of all.

Wiggs @wiggsdannyboy1.bsky.social · May 21

Question for ya, Mark: did you even watch the video? You seem to be reiterating the other criticisms by some Democrats. Basically, anything written about the last days of the Biden administration is not to be studied. If the act of circling the wagons around Biden is ignored, it can happen again

Sam Harris interviewed Jake Tapper about Tapper's new book today. Many Democrats are pissed off at Tapper for publishing what they consider a hit piece. You have to admit one thing... Biden was protected by his staff/family in a way that is wrong.
