Another of Dot's 3 pt attempts that gets about halfway to the rim...

yeah man. that was good ball movement, good spacing, open look. hit the outside of the rim :-/

Light Work Game Thread • Feb 08, 2020 05:21 PM

I wish we had this version of Doke 2 years ago with Devonte, Svi and Malik.

@DCHawker said in Light Work Game Thread:

5 - 16 but we have the lead - should we feel good about that???

I'd feel better if someone other than Doke and Dotson would score a bucket or two.

Light Work Game Thread • Feb 08, 2020 05:17 PM

Yeah.. I hadnt really thought about it but its been a long time since he's tried to dunk.

Light Work Game Thread • Feb 08, 2020 05:16 PM

my boys are asking if Dotson can dunk.

Klobuchar and Yang • Feb 08, 2020 03:36 AM

Klobuchar was :fire: :fire: :fire: tonight. I will dream of an Amy / Andrew ticket.

The twins have a mutual bank account?

The transformation of their bodies was one of Hudy's finest accomplishments (and of course, remarkable on their part as well)

Wiggins • Feb 07, 2020 12:17 PM

This is a fantastic opportunity for Wiggins. Winning culture. Returning stars. Rest of season to be the man.

D-Lo was a bad fit. What the Warriors needed was Durant. Wiggins is one of the few humans on the planet with a ceiling that can match the size and athleticism of Durant. I really really hope he succeeds. Couldn't ask for a better chance.

Love this conversation. Thank you both for digging in.

@Kcmatt7 If he can reduce his UBI to $750/month instead of $1000/month his proposal can be net zero.

Did you guys watch Yang last night? He was awesome! Really got a chance to shine in the long format.

@jayballer73 this team is heating up. Just wait for it. I think you will feel it soon.

The things that do not wow are clear. Our passing game isn't often great. Our three point shooting, ditto.

But surely Dotsons game against Dayton was filthy. Doke is amazingly limber this year and still just as strong as ever. Marcus makes defensive plays that makes opponents look stupid or slow. Braun is a hell of a freshman, stone cold. And every shot clock violation or stolen pass our d induces makes me smile.

For me, Wow isn't about what I think generally about the team. Wow is a visceral reaction to an in-game sequence. And there are more and more of those I think as we go along. Just imagine that we have a hall of fame coach who is still testing and tinkering and won't put the whole machine together until March.

I plan to be amazed at the end product.

@BeddieKU23 speaking of bad losses how did Clemson beat Duke? Watching Clemson va Uva. It's 35-34 with minutes left in game. Two really bad offenses.

moderates and progressives • Feb 05, 2020 08:56 PM

I'd rather Klobuchar stay in. She's got as good a chance as anyone of attracting Warren voters that don't favor Bernie. I'd rather she keep Biden behind. She's the sensible moderate candidate.

moderates and progressives • Feb 05, 2020 05:46 AM

@FarmerJayhawk I can't see Bloomberg appealing to anyone. I think big money candidates taking shots from the sidelines feels disingenuous and there are closer lillypads to Biden for his base to hop to.

How quickly do you think Warren concedes if she loses NH by a similar margin? Does her base go to Sanders quickly?

moderates and progressives • Feb 05, 2020 04:42 AM

Moderates 55%ish (buttigieg/biden/Klobuchar), progressives 44%ish (Sanders/Warren) . I wonder how that split compares to National appeal.

I don't think Buttigieg can carry the South (gay man appealing to Roman Catholics and the black vote), Klobuchar can. Biden's betting he can. But I think the progressives can as well. I think Biden is going to be surprised how much ground he loses to the progressives in the South.

Super Bowl • Feb 05, 2020 01:57 AM

More raw takes.

I hope I live to see America the Beautiful become the National Anthem and God Bless America be extricated from sporting events. Take Me Out To The Ballgame!

I know I know.. simmah down now!

Super Bowl • Feb 05, 2020 01:45 AM

Disclaimer: totally my opinion here and I respect you for having yours.

I don't understand why the national anthem is held sacrosanct because of the military. It seems counter intuitive to me. Our military fights for us SO THAT WE CAN BE FREE. Not the inverse. We are not free so that we can be militaristic. Fighting is a necessary evil, for our protection and our freedom, but an evil nonetheless.

It's one thing to make fart noises during the national anthem, it's another to have a little fun. It's a sporting event. Also, supposed to be fun.

It speaks to the underlying militarism imposed on our sporting events. Conditioning of the masses. The two don't have to be associated and contributes to why young people are turning away from organized sports.

Is mindblowing. Admittedly I havent had time to dig into the who did what...

But they hired an app company that had been in business for a year named Shadow inc? And the apps they produced miscounted votes? And the backup system did not account for the volume of calls!?

How can you not think that this is some sort of conspiracy against Klobuchar? Because the alternative is that these people are completely incompetent, with no vetting of a critical contractor and no awareness of the optics.

This speaks to how badly we need people like Andrew Yang who understand technology in high positions in government.

@Kubie said in Another test please from guys experiencing technical FUBARculties?:

Page loads fine on AT&T now Thanks!!

SWEEEEET!

I dig it. Reminds me of the Orioles fan yelling O! in "O! say does that star-spangled banner yet wave?"

@approxinfinity Worked for me! Created new topic from within kubb and deleted it.

Awesome!

Ok, I'm locking this thread. If anyone experiences further issues please use the FUBAR thread to report them.

Test • Feb 04, 2020 01:15 PM

(with the exception of the last 5 minutes, because I was testing to verify that this was the actual problem, so there may have been some flakiness if you're on)

Test • Feb 04, 2020 11:53 AM

I changed the config of the composer too and now on phone creating from a category I see the category listed in a selector in the middle of the top of screen. I swear I didn't see it yesterday when testing so maybe something fishy there still. But give it a shot from category. It may work now as well.

Yeah I think this should be 100% resolved.

Edited the issue I sent to nodebb to reflect this discovery:
https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/8145 ↗

EDIT: Issue should now work on our board as I've changed setting to not go to fullscreen composer. The problem exists in the full-screen composer.

Tap the middle of the composer's top bar to select category.

Wonder how Bill feels about starters all the way.

@approxinfinity bilas also said Mahomes is ugly and stupid.

I missed that part. Calling him unathletic is stupid. The guy throws a laser from any arm slot.

Superbowl Hangover Game Thread • Feb 04, 2020 04:03 AM

If you're gonna call it tight call it tight.

Superbowl Hangover Game Thread • Feb 04, 2020 04:02 AM

Self pass

Superbowl Hangover Game Thread • Feb 04, 2020 04:02 AM

Did you hear Bilas say Mahomes may not be the most athletic guy @Crimsonorblue22

Superbowl Hangover Game Thread • Feb 04, 2020 04:01 AM

Let's not get injured by the Havoc in the last minutes.

Superbowl Hangover Game Thread • Feb 04, 2020 04:00 AM

10 count? Serious?

Texas de Fácil!

Superbowl Hangover Game Thread • Feb 04, 2020 03:55 AM

We can steal all day on these guys.

Superbowl Hangover Game Thread • Feb 04, 2020 03:53 AM

@DanR I shot a free throw in the backyard that somehow jammed one of my sons fingers and hit the other in the nuts. Both went down. That was pretty special.

Superbowl Hangover Game Thread • Feb 04, 2020 03:51 AM

We are being much more aggressive going for the steals both cutting passing lanes and stripping the ball. Good stuff

Superbowl Hangover Game Thread • Feb 04, 2020 03:50 AM

Enawhona?

Superbowl Hangover Game Thread • Feb 04, 2020 03:49 AM

I'm so happy that Doke has played himself into the first round. We need to go deep this March to seal the deal.

I feel better with Doke at the line than Ochai at this point.

Weird times.

Markelle Fultz had 14 assists today. Kid has figured it out

Superbowl Hangover Game Thread • Feb 04, 2020 03:41 AM

Wow ok! Hello crafty old man Moss! Do more of that!

Superbowl Hangover Game Thread • Feb 04, 2020 03:40 AM

Yeah let's just make Moss the designated high screener

Wow... Those nerdy kids on the Texas bench look way different than the Firm that played for Barnes.... bodiker buckman and klotz!

Superbowl Hangover Game Thread • Feb 04, 2020 03:33 AM

Agbaji is working.

Superbowl Hangover Game Thread • Feb 04, 2020 03:32 AM

Wellp good idea. Horrible pass.

@BShark I hit the problem when I post from a category. There's no drop-down for the category and it doesn't appear to carry the Id over. Should be easy fix. For now try creating thread from the recent posts view which will have the category drop-down. This should definitely work on a desktop. Responsive design may not let you on phone.
