@DanSkipper70 Amen.

[Jason Auricchio @JasonAuri]

Insane take. I’ve worked with numerous players who have spent time on psqaud and not once have I seen someone not scratching and clawing to get onto the 53.

You don’t get credited seasons on psquad and the money is significantly different as shown there even for a “minimum” guy

[Jason Auricchio @JasonAuri]

@geoffschwartz Thank you.

This is an absolute bullshit take on all accounts.

NFL practice squad players earn $234K a year to never play a game. Brady says a lot of them prefer it that way.

$13,000 a week. Same facilities, same planes, same meals as the active roster. Super Bowl ring if the team wins. And zero risk of failing on national television. Brady watched this for 20 years and realized many practice squad players had already reached the exact outcome they wanted.

The active roster pays $840,000 minimum, three and a half times more. But it comes with something most people underestimate: public, measurable, weekly accountability. Drop a pass in the fourth quarter and 70,000 people watched it happen. When practice squad players got promoted into that pressure, they crumbled. Same arms, same legs, same speed. Their talent survived the jump. Their appetite for judgment didn't.

The $606,000 gap between practice squad and active roster is the annual price of pressure-avoidance. Enough NFL players pay it voluntarily that a seven-time Super Bowl champion noticed a pattern.

Every evaluation system on earth measures people when nothing is on the line.

[WembyMuse @Wemby_Muse]

Same exact miss by JDub and Westbrook.

Same exact shot by Wemby and Curry.

The resemblance is uncanny 🤯

[Damien Peters @DamienPetersNBA]

Insane stat of the day:

Steph Curry has missed the playoffs 40% of his career.

LeBron James has been in the Finals 43% of his career.

Forget how people view sports…just how lame sports culture/fandom is overall.

People want to debate an “ethical” 83 points…while they cheat on their spouse, taxes and watch Netflix at work all day. 😂😂. “Ethical” lol

[Heat Central @TheHeatCentral]

Nick Wright says the media bashing Bam’s 83 points is a MASSIVE indictment on how people view sports:

“I thought the general reaction to a player with that cool of a story, that likable, un controversial as Bam Adebayo, scoring 83 god dog points in a NBA game, instantly being a debate about its validity, is a massive indictment on how we consume, discuss, and enjoy sports… EVERYBODY SHUT UP! Somebody scored 83 points in a basketball game.”

[Naveen Ganglani @naveenganglani]

Bam GOES OFF on the "unethical" comments about his 83:

"You're blaming me. You should be blaming the head coach. I was not the one who let me go one on one the whole game until I had 70 then you sent the double. At that point, I had 70 with 9 mins to go. You think I'm not going for it?"

"That's the thing that's crazy when they talk about unethical part of the basketball. If I have 70 w 9 mins to go, who would be like, coach just take me out? Yeah, right!"

"You can't be mad at that. If you are mad, I don't care. A lot of people, they're upset. If they did play, they never got the chance to get that close to chasing greatness. If you get that close, that's the point of chasing it -- so you can surpass it."

[Jack Mac @JackMac]

I wanted to hate on Bam but I looked up Kobe’s 81 point box score and his last 7 points came from free throws.

No Laker had a shot for the last 7 minutes in that game lol.

[Jason Auricchio @JasonAuri]

“Can’t score 8 in your men’s league with you girlfriends watching” is next level

[The HEAT Realm @WadexFlash]

Jeff Teague and the 520 podcast DEFEND Bam’s 83 point game against everyone who’s hating:

“If this was LeBron’s record y’all wouldn’t be acting like this. Y’all can’t score 8 in your men’s league with your girlfriends watching — this man scored 83 points in a real game…I f*ck with Erik Spoelstra for not taking him out. Real one…people are so upset with him breaking Kobe’s record — because they’re weird, they’re f*ckin weird — he scored 83 points in game why aren’t y’all happy about that? Y’all ruin everything.”

Mike Tirico: "Cris, all of a sudden, there's a rhythm to the New England offense..."

Cris Collinsworth: "[Drake Maye] is reading the defense now... a couple of the best plays that he's had so far..."

*Interception*

Collinsworth: "Ummmm, I've got nothing for you here."

Buffalo's such a mess Rivers pulled out for the first time in his life.
