Agree division is a major problem in this country. At the same time though you did just dump an Alex Jones meme in another thread here so you can't be all that super bothered by it.

ALex wise, dont much care of the guy, tho many of his bizarre bat-poo claims have been ringing true. I mainly used that cause its a great anger react, hes one of the best at those.

over 2 years now Im beyond sick of the constant to divide and both sides eating it up. Just if someone is awful at their job, you can not state that unless many boxes are checked. Even if its true, its a alex jones like world out there now....

Behaviorally speaking what we know as social media is essentially just a larger version of chat rooms from the early 2000's with more personalized themes and newer technology. Beyond that you can't have honest discourse anymore because the majority of Americans are disingenuous and have their own selfish motives. And now on social media that's mostly grifting and suckering people into following while being oblivious to the fact they are enriching village idiots and continuing a cycle that will only create more. But hey good luck navigating all this guy.

You got a good grasp of it. I did see the weird(well what i thought was) deal to build up you followers and then unleash some sort of scam either crypto BS, shittcoins, essential oils, or just be sponsored by a junk product. Or just be a begging millionaire and poor people still send in the 5 buck/whatevers..... 

and you got me right about trying to navigate it as well. Each day I tell myself no one cares while my brain melts away....   Honestly my chemical makeup just doesnt have the right mix to think/understand how or why the world is acting this way. Its madding and soooooo tiresome.... Wish people treated each other better than they want to be treated, but people will walk alll over this line of thinking.. be safe frank!

If we hire a coach that doesn’t have head coaching experience in the NBA playoffs I will be pretty upset.

It is the one hump this group of players hasn’t been able to overcome and we need all the help and experience we can get. If we can’t make a bit of noise in the playoffs soon, you may as well say goodbye to LaMelo.

I am not a fan of promoting college coaches directly into Pro HC roles - unless they have some seriously high-performing results for about a decade - and even then it is rare that it works.  But I do think the first female HC in the NBA could easily be her - she has done an incredible job so far.  In the pros it is so much more about building and sustaining a team that plays well - which she seems to be very strong with.

Most importantly I would ONLY consider promoting directly into HC like this with an already successful franchise also.  This team isn't a consistent winner yet...that is way too much pressure for pretty much anyone.

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
