@barstoolsports He seems like Tom Hanks at the end of Saving Private Ryan when his ears are ringing.

Hubert Davis gave an unbelievable presser after UNC’s choke job

@TheTruth8240 He’s on a heater and he’s in the position he likes. It’s like the most recent Olympics. He flourishes when he’s on the best team and doesn’t have to drive competitiveness. That’s all he’s ever wanted. Will the Lakers stay hot and what happens if he has to drive again?

Nobody is wrong when saying the Lakers are better without Lebron, they literally have a 9-2 record without him. That record proves in fact that the Lakers are better without him Lebron is a 🤡

up by 19 at the moment.

@NBA Lebron wanting the foul shots there after Luka already made the layup for 50.

LUKA'S GOT 50 PTS! THE LAKERS ARE HUNGRY FOR THEIR 8th WIN IN A ROW 🔥

@BleacherReport UNC showing up for the second half in the tournament.

@NBA Him collecting him. Least surprising thing ever.

LeBron's building out his PERFECT collection 👏

@gothburz @jittoshi This was therapy. Thank you. I should pay you. But come on, I don’t have any money.

My net worth peaked at $1.2 million. None of it was real. I don't mean that philosophically. I mean it was located on servers that have since been turned off. I own eleven properties in the metaverse. Three in Decentraland. Four in The Sandbox. Two in Voxels. One in Otherside. And a beachfront villa in Horizon Worlds that I bought for $214,000 because Mark Zuckerberg called it "the next frontier." The frontier closed last week. It's a mobile app now. Last year I mass DM'd 340 people the phrase "you don't understand how early we are." I have since stopped doing that. Not because I was wrong. Because most of them blocked me. I got into metaverse real estate in November 2021. Everyone was buying. Someone paid $450,000 to be Snoop Dogg's neighbor. In a video game. With no legs. The avatars didn't have legs. I thought that was bullish. "The legs are coming," I told my Discord. "Legs are a roadmap item." Three hundred people reacted with rocket emojis. I called myself a "digital land baron." I put it in my Twitter bio. I put it in my LinkedIn headline. I said it on a podcast that had eleven listeners. Three of them were bots. The rest were my alts. My virtual property has more square footage than my actual apartment. My actual apartment has furniture. Location, location, location. My most valuable asset was a plot next to a virtual Gucci store. Gucci left in 2023. The store is still there. Nobody's in it. It's like a mall in Ohio but with worse graphics and no food court. I held. Diamond hands. That's what we said. "Diamond hands." It means refusing to sell while your investment loses 94% of its value. We turned financial paralysis into a personality trait. A guy in my Discord paid $2.4 million for a 618-parcel estate in Decentraland. Prime district. High foot traffic. I asked him what "foot traffic" meant when the platform had 38 daily active users. He said I didn't understand the technology. I didn't. I still bought more. We had a DAO. A decentralized autonomous organization. That means we voted on decisions. There were nine of us. Three never showed up. Two voted on everything without reading it. The other four were me and my alts. We voted to "acquire strategic parcels." The vote passed unanimously. I voted four times. My portfolio peaked at $1.2 million. I told everyone. I made a spreadsheet. I projected 40x returns by 2025. I made a pitch deck. The pitch deck had a slide that said "WE ARE BUILDING THE DIGITAL ECONOMY." The slide had a rocket emoji. That was my entire financial model. In 2023 I bought a Bored Ape for $189,000. It's worth $14,000 now. I don't talk about the Ape. I still use it as my profile picture. People ask me about it. I say "I'm long-term bullish." Long-term bullish means I can't sell it without crying in a Panera. My mom asked me what a Bored Ape was. I said "digital art on the blockchain." She asked why it cost more than her car. I said "you don't understand Web3." She said "I understand you live in a studio apartment." She's not in my Discord. Justin Bieber bought one for $1.3 million. It's worth about $90,000 now. I felt better about mine after I heard that. That's community. WAGMI. We're All Gonna Make It. We said that every day. In the group chat. While the floor dropped. While the volume dried up. While 95% of all NFT collections went to zero. We're all gonna make it. None of us made it. But we said it with conviction and a laser-eye profile picture. That counts for something. It doesn't. But we said it did. That's decentralized consensus. Meta spent $84 billion on the metaverse. I need to say that again. $84 billion. More than the GDP of Luxembourg. More than the GDP of Iceland, Luxembourg, and Malta combined. They spent it on a platform where the avatars had no legs, the graphics looked like a 2006 Wii game, and the peak user count was lower than the lunch rush at a Chipotle in Des Moines. They just pulled Horizon Worlds from VR headsets. It lives on as a mobile app. My beachfront villa is now a mobile app. Location, location, location. Zuckerberg renamed the entire company for this. Facebook became Meta. A $900 billion company changed its legal name because the CEO watched Ready Player One and said "I want that." Reality Labs lost $10 billion in 2021. $14 billion in 2022. $16 billion in 2023. $18 billion in 2024. $19 billion in 2025. That's not a strategy. That's a speedrun. They laid off 1,500 Reality Labs employees this year. Shut down three VR studios. Killed Supernatural. Put the entire VR social vision in a casket and said "we're pivoting to AI and wearables." The pivot took four years and $84 billion. I pivoted too. I'm an AI real estate investor now. I bought a virtual plot in an AI-generated world that doesn't exist yet. The founder said it was "the intersection of spatial computing and large language models." I don't know what that means. I gave him $40,000. He has a whitepaper. It's 47 pages. I read the title and the tokenomics section. The tokenomics section is a pie chart. I love pie charts. They make everything look like a plan. The project has a roadmap. Q1: "Build community." Q2: "Launch beta." Q3: "Scale ecosystem." Q4 is blank. Q4 is always blank. That's where the exit scam goes. My accountant asked me to value my metaverse portfolio for tax purposes. I said $1.2 million. He said "current market value." I said $6,400. He stared at me for eleven seconds. I know because I counted. He asked if I had any other investments. I showed him my NFTs. He stared for longer. I told him they were "cultural artifacts with long-term provenance." He asked if I'd considered a 401k. I told him a 401k was "legacy finance." He told me to leave his office. The metaverse is dead. I don't accept that. I am a digital land baron. I own eleven properties across four platforms. I have a beachfront villa in a mobile app, a plot next to an empty Gucci store, and a cartoon monkey that cost me more than my actual car. Location, location, location. The location is nowhere. But I'm early. I'm always early. That's the same as being wrong except you get to say it with confidence.

@TomGulittiNHL One of the most memorable games I’ve ever watched.

Ryan Leonard’s first NHL goal was also an empty netter.

Cole Hutson was carrying the puck up ice with the Senators net empty and had Connor McMichael on his left. If Hutson was thinking of passing, McMichael pointed emphatically at the net for him to shoot, so he did and got his first NHL goal.

@NHL @NHL_On_TNT @StreamOnMax Legend. Best Golden Goal of all time.

JACK HUGHES 🤩 He now has six goals in his last six games! 📺: @NHL_On_TNT & @StreamOnMax ➡️ max.com/sports/nhl

@capsboybebop Is he available for zone entries on the power play?

bro

Sid and Svech exchange some shots 👀

@spittinchiclets Caps honored the young defenseman by playing defense for 20 straight minutes in the first period.

COLE HUTSON ROOKIE LAP TIME ⏰

@NHL_Muse When does anyone “forget” to praise Sidney Crosby?

There’s no doubt Macklin Celebrini has been sensational, but let’s not forget just how dominant and special Sidney Crosby was at the same stage of his career. Through the first 136 games of their career: Sidney Crosby: 65 G — 128 A — 193 PTS Macklin Celebrini: 60 G — 98 A — 158 PTS Where will Celebrini rank among NHL players in 5 years?

@spittinchiclets Yes. It's the coolest thing of all time.

Should Jack Hughes get to have his Golden Goal puck?

@GinoHard_ @JoshYohe_PGH Hockey robot answers.

Sidney Crosby was asked about wanting his Golden Goal puck back like Jack Hughes… and gave the most Crosby answer possible 👏🐐 (h/t @JoshYohe_PGH)

Great moments are born from great opportunity

@espn @wyshynski I’m sure Canadian fans are loving that exhibit.

Jack Hughes says he wants his gold-medal-winning overtime goal for Team USA in the Winter Games back from the Hockey Hall of Fame, which is displaying it in Toronto. Full story from @wyshynski ➡️ spr.ly/6011B6rWtW
