Lamine Yamal probably thought he’d be the star of this World Cup, but on football’s biggest stage he’s looked painfully average while Olise is thriving and showing exactly why he’s one of the best players in the world currently.
Teams are willing to tolerate drug users, domestic violence abusers, drunk driving, all kinds of loutish behavior, but don’t be smart. Don’t be too smart for your own good. 🙄
The 76ers owner on their trade for Jaylen Brown
“We couldn’t believe it either… we can’t believe we were able to get Jaylen Brown for what we gave up.”

It’s weird how others get celebrated for their academic prowess, but when it’s a 6’8” Finals MVP, who avg 29 7&5 last year, from Atlanta, it’s a problem. I can’t put my finger on as to why, but I’m going to keep researching.
I completely understand where you’re coming from, but for a lot of gamers physical discs are the only way they could afford to play games because they could get them secondhand. You can also give games to your younger siblings Which is a great way to introduce them to the games you were playing.
Most importantly though, as we saw from PlayStation this past week, if the media we buy is only digital, it can be taken away from us at a moment’s notice with no recourse. Imagine that, one day your entire library of games could be deleted overnight because technically you don’t own it.
I DO NOT think people understand that global warming doesn’t mean “no cold weather ever.” It means a warming planet destabilizes weather patterns, causing more extreme weather. This has been explained for decades and people still don’t get it.
Kendrick Perkins on the Jaylen Brown trade to the Sixers:
“This is a sad day for the Boston Celtics. Paul George hasn’t been consistently good since I was skinny"
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
It’s pretty fucking disgusting that we live in a country where climbing the Empire State Building is a crime but rich people touching little kids isn’t.
Jaylen Brown had fallen heavily out of favor with Brad Stevens and the Celtics' front office, per @Tjonesonthenba
“He’s also polarizing, thoughtful, well-spoken, outspoken, expensive and had apparently fallen so out of favor with Brad Stevens and the rest of Boston’s front office that he was traded for relative pennies on the dollar.”
