I bomb atomically.

@RyanRosenblatt We’re glad to have you.

[Kevin Borland @borlando_magic]

Hate this team, hate this sport. World keeps turning.

@ayroned How far is it from ODESSA to your SKOO?

[Kevin Borland @borlando_magic]

@RyanRosenblatt I think that’s where I land. Feels a little like throwing darts. Maybe it’s great, or maybe we end up in the same place when De Zerbi crashes out in 2 seasons (if he even lasts that long) and we look for another sporting director.

[Kevin Borland @borlando_magic]

@RyanRosenblatt Absolutely! F1 and Frankenstein are style over substance films and I just like F1’s style more. Del Toro has never been my guy. Buckley is such a powerhouse. Her face is doing all the work of the entire film.

[Kevin Borland @borlando_magic]

@RyanRosenblatt I was so moved by it. I didn’t get to watch it until last week and I’ve been thinking about it nonstop since. I’ll get to it was just an accident sometime soon, I’ve heard a lot of great things.

[Kevin Borland @borlando_magic]

@RyanRosenblatt But I didn’t get a chance to watch it was just an accident, so I can’t argue with you too much on that one. I think Sinners and OBAA are better films but sentimental value absolutely blew me away.

[Kevin Borland @borlando_magic]

@RyanRosenblatt No, outside of Jesse Buckley and the boy playing Hamnet, that movie was just ok. I’d switch secret agent and train dreams and put Frankenstein last. I’d give best actress to Buckley and international to sentimental value.

[Kevin Borland @borlando_magic]

@RyanRosenblatt Fair. I would put OBAA first but I think Sinners plays better at home than OBAA does. And I rewatched both in the last two weeks and I had to factor that in a bit. Both are gonna be movies I go back to quite a bit, I think.

@RyanRosenblatt A few years ago, we did a stuffing fried rice that was pretty great

@Skipjack0079 We’ve needed a premier league Primetime, and we’ve finally got one.

[Kevin Borland @borlando_magic]

@RyanRosenblatt I hope you are right. I’ve never been the doom and gloom fan but the last few years really suck the life out of these windows when there’s really opportunities for change.

[Kevin Borland @borlando_magic]

@RyanRosenblatt And while a lot of the Levy stuff is overblown, you have to wonder if there’s real apprehension on potential sporting directors to want to work under him (and Vinai). People don’t want to have roadblocks in their jobs, and that’s the perception

[Kevin Borland @borlando_magic]

@RyanRosenblatt There in lies the problem. Obviously nothing happens now. January if the season starts poorly? Maybe. But if things go well (I.e. 5th-6th) in Jan. then it’s likely he stays on for who knows how long. And we continue the cycle.

[Kevin Borland @borlando_magic]

@RyanRosenblatt Totally fair. Considering how many times they have completely reworked the recruitment structure, you would’ve thought we’d have stumbled on to something that worked. But we’re much more focused on finding cheap buys everywhere instead of seeking out talented front office people
