Not sure why it won’t embed, but it’s Book’s shoe
Been having the same problem with twitter but the shoe looks good. Can’t wait to not be able to buy a pair because it immediately sells out. Scalpers gonna have a nice pay day with this one.
You still have to make sure it has twitter.com instead of x.com in the URL. Don’t know if that’s something Marty can change or not.
I looked into it, and I currently can't make it work for x.com URL embeds without directly editing the code for the embedder plugin. I don't want to do that because I don't want to mess with it and break something. I'm waiting for them to release an updated version of the embedder that supports x.com. I checked it a few days ago and they still hadn't released one yet. This is the plugin I use for media embeds on the site:

Thanks a lot for the effort, if, any, this offseason dogs days are the perfect time to wait out for that update, kind of being on offseason shape for the site as well, so we can wait until training camp hehe.

Plus, I hope those washed out colors look better than that on the actual uniforms. If I remember right, they do.

Hopefully Beal is rated way too low. Bol Bol over Gordon is silly.

I don't play the game but Bol is 77
That sounds high to me, granted I would love if he shows all his potential this season lol but that's an interesting one

To be fair Josh also but maybe I don't understand the ratings scale 🤷‍♂️

There’s a lot of positive stuff out there on Bol…my expectations are pretty low but it seems quite a few people believe in him.

The big thing that stands out is Beal at 86 with Book and KD in the mid 90’s. Beal seems closer to them than that…but maybe not much closer. 88 feels right. I do think EG should be 79 or 80.

Well, first of all, it was a spoiler. The answer was SUNS. Secondly, it is a very obvious answer for everyone that reads this board. :D

Uhh... Brandon Hunter never played for the Suns.

You're probably thinking of Steven Hunter.

RIP Hunter.


Short story about personal history with hot yoga:
When I was playing basketball in high school, my hs coach would have a saying, "No one ever drowned in sweat."

So yrs later, I was doing hot yoga, and there was legitimately a small pond worth of sweat forming below my face. I thought to myself, I might end up being the first to actually drown in sweat, haha.
