-Posters I frequently think are the same person: Bernie = Booker (doesn't make sense) -- Wayne = Wynn (really doesn't make sense) -- Maxx = Unfrozen (makes perfect sense)

-Bands that need to be listened to more:





-If anybody can find the above on vinyl, hit me up. I'll pay way more than it's worth.

-I've never won a game of chess. #stuppid

-I think the headband dork from Dakota is incredibly overrated. Good luck at Creighton, cornball.

-Shaedon may very well go #1. What a colossal screw up.

-Better Call Saul continues to be fantastic. What a great universe Vince created. I can rewatch his stuff as much as The Wire.

-So much good TV being put out these days. I know this is a weird time socially, but at least the entertainment industry keeps pumping out good content. Can you imagine coming up in the 90's sitcom era? I'd masturbate a lot.

-I've got a lot of adoption work in my caseload. Those things are such a pleasure to work on. Otherwise, uck my job.

-I'm not against a zany hire to replace Jai. I'll get absolutely skewered for this, but Tom Crean running our offense and recruiting with D Wade would work wonders. Rondo perks my ears too, but Calipari has all but transitioned out of his "out-of--the-box" thinking. We're in a bit of a mediocrity holding pattern, imo.

-I'm a sucker for horror movies. I'm also a Jordan Peele Stan. So pumped for this:



-See you guys in a few days. Take it easy on me. I tried my best.

Basically take your entire post, then say the opposite. Do you really not follow free agency? NFL holdouts??

Do a quick Google search on Scott Boras or the Poston brothers.
So, you think those agents would suggest their clients play for a **** franchise solely because they have the most cap room and ability to make a larger offer? Any player or agent worth a damn is going to be thinking about their future compensation along with their current, especially if we're talking about a short term deal.

Of course the pay is the most significant part of the process for professionals, but they have to look at other factors as well and most definitely don't want to encourage a client go somewhere that will stunt their career growth or negatively impact their ability for future earnings.

When it comes to college basketball recruits/transfers, they should be expected to worry about NBA prep and/or what players are making at that program via NIL as they compare with with other offers or guarantees. I don't know exactly what UK is allowed to share in terms of players and their NIL compensation, but if we can assume it is significant and impressive, that could do as much to impress a recruit than a particular guarantee. However, if UK's NIL compensation is ******, we're screwed.

The University of Kentucky damn well better be the best there is at paying players. If there has ever been a moment where God puts life on a tee -- well here it is. Send kids cash in Emery Air envelopes, hire Randolph Morris to fax a picture of every cash drop to Mark Emmert until he retires, and go Full Tarkanian, imo.

Cal wanted to boast about making more millionaires than Wall Street. Here's your chance to end generational poverty, big boy.

Not sure what is so hard to grasp?

Of course we're at the top of the NIL game, we spent tens of thousands of dollars on legal fees just to get Oscar eligible to receive the millions he will be getting...Tyty and Sharpe were driving around in 2022 Porches...Banchero was driving around in a used Ford Explorer.

When a dude is outwardly shopping himself for the best NIL deal (against NCAA rules)...Cal has to publicly cover his *** when it's brought up.

We can gripe/complain/debate about things, but Cal losing out on NIL deals is asinine.
