Open up this tweet and look at how many people think this is solely about the referees. Exactly what I was talking about during last night’s show. Even got a text from someone at the league office about it this morning.

Several big missed calls, superstar player making a money sign at the refs on national tv, A-list governor using Twitter Blue to complain abt a clown car of a possession bc 280 characters wasnt enough. Cant think of a single reason why so many ppl are apathetic about the NBA now.

every time a tweet about High Horns, Spain PnR, and/or flex cuts finds its way onto my timeline, i click on their profile and something like “im still looking for employment in the NBA media industry” is pinned to their timeline.

What does the world look like today if Robert E. Lee listens to Longstreet and doesnt send Pickett’s three divisions across Cemetery Ridge?

when enough time has passed that the victim feels their feelings are not being reciprocated, you often times get nonconformist responses. i dont think this is rectifiable considering the speed of communication technology today. also: crazy is manageable, but you cant fix stupid.

i define “news-guilting” as the time in which people take radical action to share their grief with people who are not acknowledging it. it’s a symbiotic relationship combining an attempt at commensalism, with the result being parasitism. a desperate plea for an echo chamber.

every time a star player gets hurt in any sport, i get between 10-50 of these DMs on the main depending who it is. i study audience behavior and demographics for a living, so i can tell you news-guilting is easily one of the most contagious and fomenting events to capitalize on.

0htani already the best baseball player of all-time, one of the best athletes of all-time, and whenever he gets a ring: both will probably will be consensus. He’ll need to do it for 20 years to pass LeBr0n on the latter, but it’s possible.

Would you ever consider making a video, course or something like that regarding your philosophy for content?
I think you have such a refreshing perspective and clearly a rare depth of experience.

Every aggregator i can think of tweeting that Dill0n Br00ks/Kyr1e jersey swap video cut off at the most convenient moment to make it look like he got stiffed. Not only a microcosm of 2023 but what happens when u hire ppl whose performance is based on nothing but the bottom line.

Now would be the time to rewatch Margin Call if you havent already. Especially with all the Cred1t Su1sse employees’ bonds being zeroed out to pay for the firesale. How big banks burn the micro to win the macro. Available for free on YouTube.

You are not a Twitter veteran unless you were here for the Am@nda Bynes/Charlie Sheen days. When this app was at its absolute zenith.

The only “performance review” at work that matters is if the check is still clearing. Everything else is just them protecting theirs and using you as their shield.

Buzzfeed, Elite Daily, Vox, Vice… how many of these have we seen the past couple years where the founder cashes out as the network is sold off for parts?

i thought about doing this a couple times but ive seen the slack channels of the social media teams at multiple networks and they have someone source the timestamp of my highlights when i purposely cut out the scorebug to slow them down. so would just be a waste of trolling.

Only thing to do is to post highlights of old games as bait

the power the main has over what highlights people see is wild. anything it sends out is going to get echoed and deliver nine-figure impressions of the moment once the aggregators are done posting it across all platforms.

People who earn big money from nothing seem to care a lot less about validation than those who have it because they were born with it. Perspective and apathy are the super powers of life.
