@badquant1 There's no such thing as a stink bid
Either it's a free market and you can bid whatever you want
Or
FTX's exchange is rigged and you are subject to them doing whatever they want with your funds
🚨🗣️New: Thierry Henry reacts to the USA vs Paraguay stoppage for TV commercials:
“I’ve spent my entire life in this beautiful game — as a player at the highest level, as a fan, and now as someone who analyses it every week — and what unfolded during that USA versus Paraguay match left me deeply frustrated. The fourth official standing there on the touchline, arm raised high, instructing the referee to hold the restart… not for any injury, not for tactical reasons, and not even primarily for player hydration in that scorching heat. No. It was because the broadcast team hadn’t finished airing all their commercials. That’s not football. That’s a television show pretending to be a World Cup match.
The beautiful game is being strangled by greed. Players are out there in the heat, ready to restart, momentum building like a storm about to break — and we pause everything so the sponsors can cash in. It’s like stopping a symphony mid-crescendo because the advertisers want their jingle heard. Football didn’t conquer the world by turning into American sports with endless timeouts and ad breaks. We had rhythm, flow, emotion that flowed like a river. Now? It’s dammed up for dollars.
This isn’t about hydration or player welfare anymore — it’s a slippery slope where the soul of the game is sold piece by piece. Fans deserve better. Players deserve better. The referee on that pitch looked like a puppet on strings controlled from some broadcast truck. Enough is enough. We need to protect what made this sport the greatest on Earth before it disappears completely.”
The World Cup should be football’s cathedral. Instead, we’re turning it into a shopping mall with a pitch in the middle.
And here’s the question nobody wants to answer: if the fourth official is waiting for commercials, then who is really running the game? FIFA? The referee? Or the broadcasters?
Because the moment football starts asking advertisers for permission before asking the players, you’ve crossed a line.
The World Cup is supposed to be the showcase of football. Not the showcase of who paid the most for airtime.”
Brunson taking less than the max contract to become immortal and worth more off the court is so smart...never understood why more people don't
@KingJames is a billionaire now, how much salary would he give back for a 5th or 6th ring? 50m? 100m? 500m?
@LakeShowYo Rick knows that to keep that chip on Jalen's shoulder, he can't blow smoke up his ass yet
Daddy's not proud of you until you win a few, then maybe I'll say you're the greatest Knick
Rick really a strategic father, making Jalen 'work' for his 'love'
@ohnohedidnt24 Mitch Johnson blew this series with a superior team by refusing to make adjustments when everyone could see what wasnt working
Just repeatedly going down with the ship instead of steering around the fox iceberg and going to harper and champagnie in the 4ths
@PlayoffDude Absolutely 💯
Being 7'5 becomes less of an advantage the farther you recede from the hoop, basic fundamental math
Literally retarded (and lazy on his part) to have him outside the 3pt line half of the time
@barstoolsports Mitch was abominable in this series, def had the better team, refused to go to harper and champagnie over fox in the 4Qs or stick to what worked in 1Qs, no adjustments even with Fox shooting them outta the game down the stretch or subbing in 40% 3pt shooter when down 3, terrible
Hydration break during perfect / normal weather is a retarded affront to the game, its rhythm and flow
Fuck those greedy Fifa fucks, ruining the beautiful game
@TylerGlasscock_ Wemby isn't a lazy person, but he's developed tendencies that allow him to be lazier
The amount of times he stays outside the 3pt line on offense, is late up the court to the action, and not being a better rebounder for 7'5
He's attempting to minimize his running. He's tired
@GuruLakers Gotta blame Mitch for this
A more experienced coach isn't just deferring to his vet when everyone in the world watching can plainly see Harper > Fox
I expect Harper to score when he has the ball and am genuinely surprised when Fox's go in
Wemby's missed FT's were terrible but Fox is a vet and he takes a shot (tough layup attempt) 2 seconds into the shot clock with 10 seconds left in a game they are leading by 1pt
WTF is he doing...you pull that out, they have to foul, good chance at being up 3, at worst force OT
