Geno Smith has taken a lot of sh*t in his career. I have respect for him as a man.
But his days as jets QB1 should end today
Can I just see what Klubnik looks like for 5 minutes? What are we learning about the jets with Geno at this point?
Once you realize—whether well intentioned or not—that socialists are just economically illiterate people, the world makes a bit more sense.
Ideas that sound good but have repeatedly backfired:
- Rent control (reduces supply and raises rents)
- Price controls (leads to rationing)
- Home loan subsidies (increases defaults and causes market crashes)
- Extremely progressive tax brackets (high earners have much higher income variance, sometimes going negative, so a bad year leads to massive budget shortfalls and debt)
- High capital gains taxes (too many investments fall below the zero-risk return rate, stalling the economy)
- Increasing the money supply (compounding inflation decreases purchasing power)
Indisputable economic and historical evidence shows these policies do not work. Yet politicians who know this keep promising them, and voters keep falling for it. I can’t blame educators or the media, as even they tell voters these policies do not work.
What’s the solution? I don’t believe in making people pass an Econ test to vote, but how many times do we let them drive into a wall?
If you are a collectivist then you necessarily hate empiricism… which means you hate science too.
Just fyi
Hot take:
Without the new CBA, the Knicks never would have been able to trade for KAT and would not have won the chip last season.
There are a few knicks that fall into OAKNLAK (once a Knick no longer a Knick):
1. Julius Randle
2. Elfrid Payton
3. Emmanuel Mudiay
Any other contenders?
@KendraRandle_ will be good to see the Randle family back at Madison Square Garden tonight 🧡💙.
Once a Knick, Always a Knick.
Difference btwn Boston and NYC can be seen though of their respective marathon cultures—
Boston Marathon: *entire city takes off a random Monday in spring to get wrecked starting at 8am*
NYC Marathon: “oh sh*t the marathon is today?!”
Yes, but if you get him the best 3&D wing in the league, the best shooting big of all-time (w Jokic level play making ability), Josh hart and Mikal bridges, what’s to stop him from becoming an NBA finals mvp?
Darius Acuff is the poster child for empty calories scoring.
He's taking everything I've disliked about guys like Anfernee Simons, Cam Thomas and Keyonte George, but stretching it to its absolute extreme.
Maybe one day he'll be good. Maybe one day he'll find the difference between a good and bad shot.
Maybe one day, far into the future he'll actually guard someone...anyone.
The Sacramento Kings are 0-11 between preseason and regular season. Keagan Murray and Malik Monk are playing the worst basketball of their lives. Domas looks frustrated.
If they replaced Acuff with even a league average PG like Quickley they'd be 2-4 or 3-3. That's how actively bad he's been at controlling tempo, defending and doing virtually anything that contributes to winning other than aura farming for his own stats.
Yes, the league should call. And they should literally rescue his teammates from him.
Build out a team of only offensive rebounders, screeners and defenders. Guys who will catch his grenades, rebound his misses and sing at his alter of self-focussed basketball.
Darius Acuff Jr represents an archetype of everything I despise about AAU basketball, and everything I despise about Vivek Ranadive.
Years from now, they'll make a documentary about what this year was like for his teammates. And then you'll see how many careers had to be ruined for this undersized Iverson wannabe to chase Rookie of the Year.
It's disgusting basketball. And if you're cheering for it, you're insane.
Hot take: when all is said and done, Jalen Brunson will be remembered above all else for having inspired a generation of undersized ball hogs who can’t defend outside of the occasional drawn charge
