Stupid Holiday..


Awesomeness!!

Recommended Posts

I see my dad often, and talk to him often. And it doesn't take Father's Day to appreciate him, BUT, its not every day that we get to spend time together like we did today. I didn't buy him a gift, because like I said, its not like that. We went to a movie and I bought him lunch. And I'll see him tomorrow probably like normal. I don't see anything wrong with a special day just for Dad.

I see what the OP means, about the "Hallmark" side of it. I do hate that side of it. But, you don't have to buy into all that crap, if you just want a day to spend with your father. I value all the time I have with my father, especially after he's beat 2 kinds of cancer, it really puts things into perspective. I didn't buy him anything either, but he's not that kind of person anyway.

If you have a half decent father, then it shouldn't take a random day in June for you to appreciate him anyway, if you don't, then the holiday is stupid and pointless, but the real winners today are the Gift Card makers who will make millions of dollars.....

I see your point. Same with Mother's Day and Valentine's Day. But you didn't really have to go there. We all know about these days. It's a commercial holiday, but you can still go out and do something nice for good ol' dad just to show your appreciation.

    • I mean I think its a bit disingenuous to call basically anyone here a casual fan. I don't think the casual fan creates a profile then logs into it, in the offseason, to comments on mundane offseason topics.. I dont think anyone on here would be considered a casual fan. That said, I get your point. My POV is from the player. They sign this contract, move their family because of these contracts. When Clowney came him, we basically had a coming home party for him.  So yeah, I get why we did it and I know that ultimately the owner doesnt 'save' money, but I can feel for the human side of the player, which is why I want them to get all they can while they can. 
    • My guess is the NBA will either send Flagg back “home” to the Northeast in Brooklyn or Washington, or San Antonio so that they can keep building around Wemby. If I was a betting man I would take the odds on the Spurs. This definitely feels like a #1 pick that they will rig.
    • In fairness, she is ensuring she is talked about.  People really aren’t going out there way to bring her up.  It’s some weird poo.  She would end up getting talked about given her actions if she was 40. Bill realizing some of these high end “companions” got a game of their own.  That’s what I don’t think Bill saw coming.
