@britt *HUGS BRITT* WE FRICKIN' WON!!!!

@majorlinux I feel the same way. If I'm queuing up at the grocery, I have my loyality card in my front pocket so I'm not shuffling in my wallet for them + Apple Pay makes paying fast.

At the buffet line, I'm pretty good at not spending more than 2mins plating the food I'm gonna eat. I'm sure folks wouldn't mind if you're plating food for someone who cannot stand in line (ie, an elder relative or friend).

I would like to see more WNBA & NBA participation. It sucks that the Steph/Sabrina 3pt shootout was a one-off.

Since nothing is off the table, why not have a WNBAxNBA All-Star Game on Saturday night and the NBA All-Star game proper on Sunday night? Have Saturday be a WNBAxNBA night where the best players from both leagues are showcased in skills competition & a friendly match?

On that note, #GoCanadaGo! #4NationsTournament #NHL

I'm 98.9% certain the NBA is watching the NHL's 4 Nations tournament and picking the parts that best work for them (NBA). The NBA will continue to confine the All-Star festivities to a weekend (Fri-Sun). I don't think the NBA wants their ASGs to extend beyond Sunday--that cuts into teams gearing up to qualify for Play-In & chase for premium bracket positions for the Playoffs.

The #NBAAllStar weekend came and went. The #NBA is on the right path to a happy medium fans & players can be excited for. The first-to-fourty, single elimination tournament is the right way to showcase the league's best talent. Games do not drag on to 100+ points where players & fans get bored.

The player selection process needs some work. IMHO, the player draft by the appointed GMs from Inside The NBA felt scripted. When the hosts declared that they're picking international, young, and "OGs", at that point, why not just announce the rosters as "Team Chuck, etc..."? I wasn't a fan of the dramatization of the all-star player draft. Shaq couldn't draft Giannis b/c he was going to be appointed by Chuck--there was no competition amongst the hosts/honourary GMs.

If the 4th-gen #iPhoneSE is a more affordable A18 device, I just might bite.

@britt No place I’d rather be. A little expensive but still good. Yep, still good.

Oh, let’s not forget the first trailer for #MarvelStudios #FantasicFour dropped this morning.

Jey winning the Royal Rumble, Luka gets traded to the Lakers, Beyonce wins Best Country Album @ the Grammys, and a ✨NEW✨ Lights album drops on Friday?!

@britt

Post-Luka/Davis/Utah trade, I misread this as Wemby also getting traded.

This doesn't surprise me much as yesterday's blockbuster trade b/c Chicago is fire saling their roster--anyone is up for grabs for the right offer.

I need a Luka Dončić #Lakers jersey.

@britt Between watching the Royal Rumble, the Luka/Davis/Utah trade that *JUST* happened, and now this--I'm going through a roller coaster of feels right now.

Why isn't this guy gone?

OMFG! https://bsky.app/profile/shamsbot.bsky.social/post/3lh6blrxfsc2f

Who scheduled The Weeknd to perform on a ✨weekday✨? 😕🤨 https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/the-weeknd-tour-vancouver-tickets

Please, for the love of gawd, DO NOT BUY A USED PHONE WITH TIK-TOK PRE-INSTALLED!

I really do not care at this point so as long as it isn't royalty, mammal, or cliche. The NHL already has Kings, Knights, Panthers, Ducks, Sharks.

Stop chasing for "Yeti" (or Yetis). We have ads on jerseys now, we don't need to mis-associate your new team with the drinkware company.

Between the JT Miller/Petterson drama & Jimmy Butler, NHL & NBA trade speculation hasn’t been this wild in a while. 🍿🏒🏀
