They better reward Canadian basketball royalty, FIBA standout and the guy who's kept them going everytime Scottie Barnes got hurt, RJ Barrett! 😤

Some people are stars for 'ripping clappers' and get paid handsomely to do it. When I do it, I get protested by Green Peace and the Sierra Club for excessive methane release into the atmosphere!

I could care less about Kawhi coming to the Raptors. I want America to get their house in order in terms of corruption, and if it starts with the Clippers, and we miss out on the guy who threw us away and should've had his contract invalidated, so be it. It starts somewhere. Next stop Trump Inc.

Love @tomhaberstroh.bsky.social and @yourmandevine.bsky.social #BigNumber pod, but I'm going to have to drop KOC. I have no idea why he wants to be a Tesla spokesperson, but it's intertwined with Musk and that's not okay. I know KOC is likely about the product, but it's not okay. I'm gone.

Love ya @tomhaberstroh.bsky.social and I'll listen to you on the Big Number, the magnificent Basketball Illuminati, however I won't be listening to you on Kevin's show anymore. Sounds like Kevin's becoming a Tesla brand ambassador, and for so many reasons that's not something I want to listen to.

@nonzerosum.games He blocked me again. He loves ad hominem attacks when someone disagrees, then when you fight back, he blocks you. Then he unblocked me just to insult me again and blocked again when I fought back. Rob Scherer is a bad guy. It's okay to disagree, it's not okay to do that.

Rob Scherer is a know it all guy who talks about things he doesn't understand, then blocks people when they don't accept his abuse. He's a coward and a wimp. He insulted me and I fought back. He unblocked, insulted and then blocked again after I didn't take his abuse. What a loser.

I'm still viciously angry at #Google over #LakeOntario renaming in America and showing both names globally. Here's what I'm doing; 1. Investigating moving from Android to a phone without Google Play Services 2. Use alternate search engines and browsers (love DuckDuckGo browser)

Rob doesn't understand the first amendment of the United States Constitution. Refusing to rename #LakeOntario absolutely falls under the first amendment. #Google chose not to anger the President. They bent the knee. I moved my data to Proton and I'll have Graphene OS on my phone by Friday.

I'll be switching to Graphene OS or buying an iPhone tomorrow. I've already cancelled YouTube Premium, in the process of moving my data over to Proton. #Google can go to hell. I'm uninterested in their corporate policy. They made a choice and by God they can go to fucking hell! #LakeOntario

Come on home DeMar, forget about Drake (love a Canadian success story, but I refuse to ignore those stories about teenage girls- would like the Raptors to distance). You're the second greatest Raptor. Kyle's first, you're second because you always believed in the team.

I like @profgalloway.com idea to reform the US federal tax code to not allow someone like Bezos or Zuckerberg to realise capital gains in a low tax state when they grew their fortunes in a state with higher taxes with better infrastructure to support their businesses.

I always think of this song when I hear Carly Simon's name, and it seems a little poignant right now with this news. I was 4 or 5 when this came out and my mom really liked it, so even if it didn't age well, I'll always like it and find it comforting. music.youtube.com/watch?v=0cSy...

@carleycarden.bsky.social I've been giving it a lot of thought and I've decided. Hawks are going to be a scary good team this year, they're going to be a nightmare for everyone in the East and I'm betting when they and Charlotte play each other it'll easily be the best game of that night.

I know the Beaches are blowing up over their last 2 albums which are more ballad less rock, but to my mind this is still one of the best rock songs of the last 20 years, maybe more. Just freaking fun! Hope they play this at George Street Festival! youtu.be/O8RgiH8rfOY?...

I don't have one Raptors based podcast in my feed talking about LJ to Sixers and it's implications. Outside of @justesbaraheni.bsky.social who had to do one for the athletic, if you don't have content on this by late Saturday, I guess you're not serious about making content for a living.
