@keithmarder@granack Because management doesn't want the risk of a player pulling something on an obvious out. Players are now worth more than thoroughbred horses.
We are trying to become smarter by handing parts of our thinking to something smarter than us. But the first question should not be how much intelligence we can create. It should be how much authority we are willing to give it, and whether we will still be capable of taking that authority back.
Very disturbing times.
Connor Bedard on the possibility of Patrick Kane returning:
"I can't imagine his first game back at the UC, the reaction he would get and how much juice that would bring to not only our team but our fans, as well. That would be incredible to get to play with him and learn from him. Hopefully he decides to come back."
Thought for the night. @nhl, I have a suggestion. How about if you're overplaying and acting to draw a penalty such as high sticking the other team should have a challenge. If it is deemed purposely overselling, he gets two minutes in the box. @NHLMedia
Larry Brown recounts a pickup game at UCLA where a 43 yr old Wilt & 4 of his freshmen play Magic, Worthy, Scott, AC Green and Bernard King. Matt Winer added that someone who played in those 80’s games told him that the best player he ever played with or against was 50 yr old Wilt
Incredible take from Charles Barkley on Tom Izzo:
"The media, who don't know anything about sports, say 'Why is he yelling his players?' That's called coaching... if parents & friends get mad because you're getting yelled at, get better parents & better friends."
Josh Minott had a passionate response when asked about tonight’s tight loss in his first Nets-Knicks matchup:
“I wanted that shit so fucking bad. Ever since we’ve been here, it’s like every game’s an away game. Tonight was just the night to really just stick it to everybody. Just as an organization and as a team to show people that we got shit here. Sea of blue, sea of orange, every game we play, a sea of the other team. That’s all I heard when I was on the Celtics, but being here, I got nothing but respect for the real Brooklyn fans. Shoutout to them, because I know it’s tough being outnumbered every single game. But I really feel like what we have here isn’t bullshit. We have pieces here. I’ve seen it. So I’d say that’s what this rivalry matchup meant to me.”
@MarcJSpears@andscape This is a great example of jersey retirements being ridiculous. Was Dell a very good player for a long time for the @hornets? 100%, no question. But, good enough to have a jersey retired? No. Longevity + having a good career doesn't = jersey retirement.
