The case for Giannis staying is that Ryan Rollins will probably be an All-Star caliber two-way guard by the middle of next year if not sooner.

So the Bears can go into the Packers' huddle and the Packers get a penalty? Interesting!
If the refs are paying such close attention, maybe they can keep eye on Micah getting held seemingly every single play?

The MLB leader in average exit velo hit .102 against lefties. ONE OH TWO! That shouldn't be possible, no matter how much he struck out. @baseballprospectus.com

You're going to hope this is about exit velocity, which it kind of is. But also, it's not.

Tamar Shirinian is an excellent scholar whose work stands up to academic scrutiny. That and that alone should be the basis on which UT-Knoxville or anyone else evaluates her.

the stories that come out of the ICE camps are going to look like the stories that come out of every camp system; rampant corruption, epidemic disease, physical and sexual abuse on a vast scale, a death rate far higher than normal, and medical abuses.

the fact that people were told “today you are going to an elementary school to lie to teachers and kidnap kids” and didn’t immediately tell their bosses to go fuck themselves is all you need to know about why ICE should be dismantled
BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”
They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

Every single offseason since the 2019 ECF loss Bucks fans have to deal with this nonsense. Media would be better served dreaming up much more realistic SGA or Embiid trades.
Whatever package you think is rich enough to obtain Giannis Antetokounmpo, it will need to be much larger.
But if he ends up on the trade market, he’ll have no shortage of suitors.
One potential deal to explore? A three-team trade with the Bucks, Spurs and Pelicans 👀
