University of California STEM professors want standardized tests back due to severe math deficiencies among students:
“We now observe preparation gaps so severe that instructors must reteach middle school mathematics”
“The current admissions metric, based primarily on GPA & essays, can no longer reliably distinguish readiness for university-level STEM majors in an era of severe grade inflation & AI assisted application essays”
Jared McCain on Daryl Morey trading him:
“It’s never to prove anybody wrong…I like proving my support system right. Daryl’s still the guy that drafted me so I’ll always have love for him.”
McCain had 24pt in WCF GM3.
All-time Philly sports mistake.🤦♂️
Jared McCain (who isn't going to even play in the playoffs), with 24 pts, 4 rbs and 1 ast in 27 minutes in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals.
Don't be bothered by this, as he wouldn't have even played for the Sixers due to their glut of guards.
This is why Knicks fans flood the Sixers arena for Knicks games. Many can’t afford to see their team otherwise at MSG, so they make the short drive or Amtrak ride.
For anyone who knows me, you know I’m a die hard sports fan. I’m the biggest Knicks and Giants fan you’ll probably ever meet. This is the current pricing for finals tickets at MSG if the Knicks make it. This pricing is disgusting. Honestly super sad that the only people that will have tickets are corporate losers that aren’t true fans. That’s what the world has come to. I’ve waiting for this moment my whole life but can never justify spending this much for a sporting event. Infuriating. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk
@stoolpresidente Ridiculous. Boston is almost 4 hours away, and Philly is maybe 90 minutes. No comparison.
Tickets at MSG were 3-5x our home games.
This isn’t about being a “sports town.” It’s about being a smaller, poorer neighbor.
It only happens with Knicks for all these reasons.
@SpikeEskin No problem with people buying tickets. Would’ve happened even if Sixers were playing well.
They filled Xfinity arena cuz NYC is bigger, richer, and close, and many can’t afford tickets at MSG.
Big problems with Knicks fans behavior tho. The worst.
@SportsRadioWIP What the hell are you talking about? The new guy WILL be tethered to Embiid because we owe $188M to a player for 30 games and one playoff series per season. Who takes that contract?!?
@sixers@dmorey Damage is done. We owe $188M/3 years to an aging superstar who can’t put together two consecutive playoff series. Signed the ghost of Paul George two more years. Traded one of the game’s best young shooters and doubled down “I sold high.”
He’s gone but the mess remains.
