Re: The US Economy
I don't pay much attention to the WH Press Secretary. What they say doesn't really matter very much. Asking them about the future of the US Economy is basically wasted breath.

Re: 2024 NBA General Offseason News
Sad to see that Cleveland team seemingly fall into chaos and dysfunction so soon after exiting the playoffs. They had a good season! They're young, and there is every reason to believe they could be as good or better next year. They should just keep their team together. But it sounds like their star...

Re: Acts of domestic terrorism
I live in Washington state. It is not "burning to the ground." Washington state is one of the most affluent, educated, prosperous states in the country; look it up. We are by no definition "burning to the ground". Republicans hear scary things about these places like San Francisc...

Re: World Politics
In In2's defense, it is totally newsworthy that someone tried to kill a prime minister of a country.

Re: DONALD TRUMP INDICTED
Let me set the record straight. I do support Trump, but I'm not in a cult. There are things that I don't agree with him on. I don't agree with him on the vax, and I do not support all his endorsements and think that many are bad. When they do in fact turn out bad, it's upsetting, as it was expected...

Re: Israel / Palestine
If the conflict is going to go on "forever," what good does it do to bomb and kill tens of thousands of innocent Palestinian civilians? I thought the goal there was to "finish the job" and "eliminate Hamas." If that can't be done, as you say, why kill so many innocent p...

Re: Environment and climate change
I don't see very many people getting rich off of climate change panic. Some companies are making money by selling new environmental solutions like solar panels, electric cars, etc., but that's just business. People want those products, and companies selling them are making money. I don't see anythin...

Re: DONALD TRUMP INDICTED
I give In2 some shit in this section, but I think we should all try to be as civil as we can in the lead-up to November's election. It's probably going to get pretty heated and nasty. We can manage to talk about all of this stuff without totally wrecking our friendship for each other. I know I would...

Re: 2024 NBA General Offseason News
Roundball Rock is awesome! My only minor criticism is that I remember NBC playing it *a lot* during each broadcast, and it does kind of get old if you hear it 25 times a game.

Re: 2024 Election
Donald Trump is such a weirdo. Why does he thank himself in his own tweet? "Thank you, DJT"? I do think that Biden asking to debate Trump is a smell of weakness. Biden knows it could help him to get him and Trump on TV. He thinks he's less old/decrepit than people realize, and he thinks Tr...

Re: 2024 NBA General Offseason News
Hmm, look at that. Other teams are salivating at a chance to get the Suns' picks from Brooklyn; they're viewed as extremely attractive assets. Why? Because we're so poorly managing the future of our franchise that other teams know these are going to be high lottery picks after we crash and burn in a...

Re: Suns hire Mike Budenholzer as head coach
That's a good point. Often drafts that people call "weak" are just ones where there aren't very clear top-5 guys to pick. But that can mean that there will still be good guys around in the teens and 20s picks.

Re: Environment and climate change
I would be a climate doom and gloomer if at least one of the predictions ever came true, but we are 60+ years in since the predictions came and not a single one has. If the seas were going to rise, the insurance companies wouldn't insure homes built near the coast and the climate change fear monger...

Re: DONALD TRUMP INDICTED
Trump has been working with his "surrogates" on statements attacking the judge and trial as a way of circumventing his gag order.

Re: Environment and climate change
New study indicates that we may be even more fucked on climate change than we thought. I am a real climate doom-and-gloomer; I think generations like my children's are going to have their quality of life be significantly harmed by all the damage we've done to the planet. My hypothetical grandchildre...

Re: 2024 Election
Biden's and Trump's people have been having conversations about having two debates this summer/fall. But they are thinking about doing them outside of the standard debate commission process so that they can set some of their own rules. Weird. https://twitter.com/NateSilver538/status/1790738966980804...

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 2 (Conf Semis) News Thread
Folks were digging a hole to bury the Nugs after going down 0-2, but now they're in total command of their series. Really impressive comeback for them, showing a lot of poise and not giving up. Jokic is so awesome. When he's got it going he is almost unstoppable. I love watching him because he's suc...

Re: 2024 NBA Draft
Tari Eason would be nice. One thought I had watching the Thunder last night is if we could buy low on Giddey. He would help both our size and PG issues. He’s getting played off the floor in the playoffs because of his shooting, but I think we could do a better job of mitigating that. It'd take a mi...

Re: 2024 NBA General Offseason News
I'm sad that TNT is losing the NBA. But I have to admit that I didn't watch Inside the NBA much for years. I basically hate Shaq and feel like in general the guys have lost some of their mojo. They're still leaps and bounds better than any of the other crews, but it was far from its peak.
