I always love music chat in this thread because people suddenly believe their opinions on something subjective are facts. At least with basketball discussions we have numbers to help guide us.

I don't speak Finnish or know anything about it other than like 5 words so I'm probably loving this up but in my head the album title translates to FINLAND FINLAND gently caress so I put it on my mount rushmore of album titles.

Does JVG choose not to work in the NBA? Or has he been blackballed? He seems to have a lot of cache around the league regardless.

He tried really hard to get the big three heat job from Spo the first year, that was pretty funny.

He's probably not cheap vs his announcing job, he fights with front offices, and doesn't have an amazing track record as coach, and sounds like he is stuck in the past somewhat. There are probably better choices or better risks.

It's me, I'm the guy who voted for the AFI album of Sing the Sorrow. Wasn't sure if it was my top favorite then and am still not sure now. There's like at least five different albums I could listen to for months without getting old and that just happened to be one of them.

I got a wild hair up my rear end last night and started listening to random wind ensemble songs. It brought up some good memories of things I played from middle school through college.

Jvg needs to stay on tv and away from coaching. If a rival team could take Jackson off the airwaves for me, though, that would be great.

I suspect his stuck in the past nature is more his TV commentating persona than the way he would coach as a pro but he'd probably be demanding on any front office as a coach. I also suspect he's gotten and rejected offers anyway.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

Please refrain from posting anything that suggests Lauri Markkanen might not actually be a superstar after posting big numbers against the Polish national team

My big worry is that the Bulls guards are going to make it hard to get a ton out of Markkaenen a lot of nights. He can only do so much without competent ball handlers (see: every Arizona loss last year featuring the wheels fall off the guards hard).

This is part of why I wanted him to go to the Timberwolves. Plus that would be a really fun team to play with in MyGM mode in 2k.
