I managed to do it with a lineup featuring well-known Clipper Dominique Wilkins.

An 82-0 team featuring Allen Iverson, Michael Jordan, Dominique Wilkins, Kevin Garnett, and Wilt Chamberlain.

From Wikipedia. Apparently you weren't alone!

This article is about the series of comics by Frank Miller. For the film, see Sin City (film). For other uses, see Sin City (disambiguation).
Not to be confused with SimCity.

Maybe the reason traffic is so terrible in Bangkok is that cars aren't actually allowed to move

Nusfjord, by Uwe Rosenberg & Lookout Games. Nusfjord feels somewhat similar to Rosenberg's big worker placement games, but in a shorter time frame. The fish economy is clever! For my tastes, among Rosenberg's games it's 1a or 1b alongside A Feast for Odin. #boardgames

Post-game personal board, part of the game board, and rulebook for Nusfjord.

I played Ticket to Ride on the Japan map. Japan is a good one; among the maps I've played, it's at the top with Pennsylvania. The white Shinkansen trains -- which are shared by all players -- really change up the strategy! #boardgames

I haven't watched Asura yet, but it's on my list! The same writer/director (Kore-eda Hirokazu) also worked on the series The Makanai: Cooking for the Maiko House. I recently watched it, and I liked it quite a bit! It's gentle & heartwarming.

Today I played Pirates of Maracaibo from @capstone-games.bsky.social . The original Maracaibo is my favorite game, so I had high hopes for Pirates. A lot feels familiar, but it's streamlined. I like it! This will work great when I'm in the mood for Maracaibo but don't have a lot of time.

Tonight I received as a gift the new Criterion 4k/Blu-ray of Farewell My Concubine. I'm so happy! It's one of my all-time favorite films: beautiful, poetic, devastating. I feel so many things every time I watch this. 📽️ #filmsky

I played Windmill Valley for the first time today. It has a lot of fun Euro stuff: action gears that can be upgraded, multi-use cards. There's something rewarding to do on every turn. It's high on my list of 2024 favorites. #boardgames

This Bangkok shop's name translates to: "I will drink iced tea everyday." That's also pretty much my motto when I'm in Bangkok.

I have a lot of new followers (like 3) so I figured I'd do a proper introduction. These pictures capture me pretty well: always interested in playing a board game, always dogs hovering nearby.
