@grant_ksu@Stanimal032 Not trying to be hostile. I don’t know your relationship with Mike so maybe I’m missing something. I just feel like, based on your replies, you believe everything on one side and nothing on the other. Maybe it’s a bit? (I hope it’s a bit.)
@grant_ksu@Stanimal032 Having freedom to do what you want without undue burden from government. I leave alone and me you. There was a pretty big test of that a few years back. One side wanted to let people live their lives, the other wanted to control people. That is the core of each party imo.
@grant_ksu@Stanimal032 Angry ranting will change his mind for sure! I think Mike’s greater point of living more in the middle and not on the fringe needs to be taken a little more seriously. I do believe being libertarian is a cop out for some people. Most are probably 90% redpublican. The core is
@Jeff_manss @Novig This argument is such a straw man. Last I checked Allen has been a starter in the league for as long as Pat has. Pat has 2 SBs with far below average wide receivers. Allen has been HOF caliber but let’s not act like he stands next to Pat. Postseason success matters. One has it.
@VPasquantino No problem 😂. Most that vocalize the loudest should be heard the least when it comes to social media.. I totally understand there are a lot of moving parts, more so just meaning the past negotiations having a cap as a non starter being crazy if it came with a floor.
@VPasquantino@VPasquantino After reading the whole article, I feel like the increased salary floor would be the ticket for a player such as yourself. Forces more of a market for a really good player. Obviously the Bobbys of the world will get a bag regardless.
@VPasquantino I understand the logic there I suppose. The NBA is a different game though imo. 2-3 superstars on an NBA team can win a title. 2-3 superstars on a baseball team doesn't play the same way. Maybe that's flawed logic, but I would just assume teams would be constructed differently
@VPasquantino I just remember conversations in past yeara negotiations, asking for a cap was a nonstarter. I just don't get that logic unless it is assumed the superstars will eat up 70% of the cap leaving the rest with scraps(realitivy speaking). I don't feel teams would be built that way.
@VPasquantino for players like Bobby, Judge, Ohtani, etc. who could reset the market, infinite cap is ideal. Wouldn’t it be better for 90%+ of players to raise the floor?
@Supersega3@Adiofreak Nicotine, caffeine. Change some of those things and suddenly one can afford it. Doesn’t mean it won’t suck to pay off, but saying it’s impossible just isn’t true. Or just scream into the internet about how life isn’t fair. I’m sure it will work one day.
@Supersega3@Adiofreak I’m not sure if you are intentionally being obtuse, or are naturally, but make a few different $30 a day choices and all of a sudden it isn’t so unobtainable. Streaming service, gas station breakfast/snacks/drinks, eating out other than DoorDash, too expensive of a car payment.
@MrTommyOdell I’m fully aware of it, just find this to be a dumb take when I feel like you are one of the more respectable KU shit talkers. Carry on and get in your shots on our basketball program hitting rock bottom (I hope).
@MrTommyOdell Some of those clips are gold though, I will say. As far as the 3Maw podcast. It’s geared to be pro Kstate. It’s a Kstate opinion podcast. When do they say they aren’t giving slanted coverage? I mean HOW DARE they like the school they cover.
@MrTommyOdell The way too online crowd caring about something that has nothing to do with their school. Don’t like them, don’t listen. I’m a big Kstate guy, but you certainly won’t catch me hate watching KU media outside of random clips of meltdowns from spaces in the past.
