@FBGreatMoments Bro could be making $5-7M a year playing football. But chose to attempt to make $50k a year rapping.

When Kadarius Toney went for 9/182/3 TDs and added 56 rushing yards vs LSU in 2020 🤯

@VMwhatuptho @TheNBABase Dude was older and less athletic. Getting drafted at 23 and playing your first NBA game at 24 is a huge difference when you’ve always been the oldest and biggest for the previous 6-7 years of playing ball.

@TheNBABase Prolly helped hansbrough in college being a 20 year old freshman and then playing 4 years

Draymond Green on why Tyler Hansbrough’s game didn't translate to the NBA after being "unstoppable" in college ​“He was really good on those UNC teams. I had the opportunity to play against him, he was unstoppable. They went to him every time; he was extremely strong. Tyler Hansbrough, he was relentless and in college, that relentless type of attitude works. In the NBA, you kind of got to have a little more skill and I just don’t think Tyler Hansbrough had the skill. ​He also didn’t have the athleticism that the bigs had that he was going up against. And so in turn, I just don’t think it translated as well. Don’t get me wrong, Tyler Hansbrough still had a respectable NBA career, It just didn’t turn out to be who he was at North Carolina. ​No one in the NBA was just going to throw Tyler Hansbrough the ball and say, ‘Go get us a bucket.’ It wasn’t fluid enough, it was too rugged. It was, ‘Ah, I’m going to go through you.’ Just ultimately, he didn’t live up to what he was in college and maybe people were expecting from him. But in this NBA, you have to play a role. Unless you’re Steph Curry or LeBron James, you must play a role and that’s kind of what happened.” (Via @DraymondShow )

@Que196_ @wynetwork @DwyaneWade @patbev21 Dwade is 7.5 years older than Harden. Those aren’t relative comparisons and there were injuries. If folks wanna say Harden is a better offensive player. Cool. Harden has always been a below average defender. Wade was always elite.

@callme_ABO @wynetwork @DwyaneWade @patbev21 Wade played as the first option like the first six seasons until LeBron joined. After that he slowed down like 3-4years after Harden still playing a high level this late in his career.

Dwyane Wade responds to Pat Bev saying James Harden is better than him 😳 “I don’t understand how you can have a conversation about me and state facts when you’re not as good as me… Pat, where is your facts to say that someone is better?… don’t you ever fix your mouth to say somebody is better than me when you wasn’t better than me. You can’t do that.”

@Que196_ @wynetwork @DwyaneWade @patbev21 When he said “aspects of the game”. He was saying he plays defense. Wade was on 5 All NBA defensive teams.

@wynetwork @DwyaneWade @patbev21 Bra really said because Pat Bev wasn’t better than him he can’t say Harden is better. lol

@MrGo30 Most underrated bar is “powder puff games at Noon….You’re just Mid-Day”

@txfblife Rockledge aint ever been a top 20 team in the state of Fl.

The last time Florida sent a team to Texas #txhsfb Texas ball > Florida ball

@JeffreyGravener @WesSteinberg Must be too young to remember Leonard Little.

@WesSteinberg My guy killed someone and still has the opportunity to be a professional athlete. Wtf is wrong with this organization

Former #Raiders WR Henry Ruggs III is set to have a tryout with the #Giants on Wednesday. GM Joe Schoen is exploring all options after losing Malik Nabers to a torn ACL.

@JayhawkTakeover I made sure to watch to the end to see if they were gonna pick him up to put him in the car.

BREAKING: #Cowboys RB Deuce Vaughn will be unavailable tonight after an altercation in downtown Dallas last night.

@ShehanJeyarajah This is a funny but some truth in it take. I’ve been in Talent Acquisition 9 years. I’ve maybe read 20 cover letters. I just look at resumes.

Sometimes it’s as simple as, it’s a job application and you declined to write a cover letter. Maybe your resume is amazing enough to carry you, but in the case it’s not, you immediately put yourself behind the 8-ball.

Think there’s a lot of truth to this. Turned down four chances to work out in front of NFL scouts (Senior Bowl, Big 12, Shrine Bowl, Combine). Chose what teams he would meet with. Didn’t test at all. They just totally misread his stock.

@philosospeedy @saggybrian @upholdreality @Fly_Sistah Yea. My math was wrong. 21% on 10 is obviously $12.10

@saggybrian @callme_ABO @upholdreality @Fly_Sistah he mentioned $10 not $1

“China wins a trade war with the U.S.” — Jeffrey Sachs China produces, while the U.S. consumes on credit. Trump doesn’t get it because "he never made it to the second day of econ class." "Our political system is in a state of collapse."

@philosospeedy @upholdreality @Fly_Sistah So if the cost of a good exported is $10 with a 21% tariff. The price for the importer to China is $10.21. How does Trump math equal a “reciprocal” tariff of 100%?

Explain that to China: One year ago, in April 2024, China's tariffs on U.S. goods were approximately 21%, covering about 58.3% of U.S. exports to China, valued at roughly $90 billion based on 2017 import levels. These tariffs had been in place since February 2020, following the U.S.-China trade war that began in 2018. Specific tariffs varied by product; for example, agricultural goods like soybeans faced targeted retaliatory tariffs, some as high as 25%, imposed earlier in 2018. China's Finance Ministry also adjusted tariffs on certain U.S. agricultural and energy products, with rates ranging from 10% to 15% on items like chicken, pork, soybeans, and coal by early 2024.

@CinnamonTeddyG @Ze_Germans_31B @FLVoiceNews @GregAbbott_TX History doesn’t work in a state with 20+ Million people. Wealthy not tryna pay the same tax rate as common people. So people supposed to provide services off of thoughts and prayers.

@callme_ABO @Ze_Germans_31B @FLVoiceNews @GregAbbott_TX Historically, before the establishment of modern tax systems, communities often relied on charitable contributions and local fundraising to support schools and city services. In many cases, individuals and local businesses would donate money, goods, or services to fund these.

JUST IN: Gov. Ron DeSantis on ending property taxes statewide "You buy a home, you buy land... and then, you've been taxed many times [on that]... is it your property, or not? Just for being on your property, you've got to write a check to the government every year?" "A lot of people can't afford that. That's a big issue. We're going to be looking at ways to bring people relief from that."

@Ze_Germans_31B @FLVoiceNews @GregAbbott_TX So with no state tax and no property tax…do you suppose sales tax can be enough to pay for all public services?

@FLVoiceNews @GregAbbott_TX, how is Florida leading the country in Liberty? Shouldn’t that be Texas?

@barry_s_naylor 😂

My dawg Baloo used to fly one of these back in the day on Talespin.

@hopperlife @Globalstats11 @novogratz @elonmusk @bizuntitled lol. Sounds crazy but you are spot on. 2030 we will be +/- 3 trillion from $55 Trillion.

@Globalstats11 @novogratz @elonmusk @bizuntitled Wow. Roughly doubling every decade for the last century.

$36T in debt and a 7% budget deficit. This is America’s biggest crisis and no one wanted to address it. Not Biden, not Harris, not Trump. But @elonmusk called it out. We need to cut government waste. He’s right. It’s time to act!! @bizuntitled

@CharDietz2 @teameffujoe @AaronParnas The first 2 years of every presidents term is bc of what happened during the previous presidents 4 years.

@teameffujoe @AaronParnas There were tariffs when he was president last time, and there was no significant price hike at Walmart. Many of those tarries stayed in place in the Biden presidency.

BREAKING: Walmart's CFO signals that price hikes may be coming because of Donald Trump's tariffs. This is what they voted for. cnbc.com/2024/11/19/wal…

@QuarterbackPlug @LegendBey7 @Coach_Stanfield Folks really in the comments saying a 10.7 for a high school football player isn’t crazy fast. Anthony Schwartz ran a 10.26 as a SENIOR. NCAA qualifiers are running a 10.12!!!

Legend Bey is a Lamar Jackson clone 🤯 @LegendBey7 Which College should OFFER him? 🤔

@Darryl_Watson @MrChuckD Did you read Chuck’s tweet at all? Rap started as one thing. Diss records Became a non cancerous tumor. Then became cancerous in the 90s. The Bridge is Over came out in 1987.

@callme_ABO @MrChuckD Diss culture like when Krs One made the bridge is over?

Rap and Hiphop didn’t form from dis battle culture.It formed from Party Dance culture… The battle culture was a mutation alongside moving the crowd. A MC never wanted you to be a wallflower, they wanted movement or the DJ would shut you off. Harlem Bronx Brooklyn wanted a better time because NYC was delivering bullsht. The battle dis thing was a side evolution tumor. Started benign then ignorance made it malignant in the 90s. Revisionist history on culture too often is measured by scattered exceptions as opposed to the massive documented ‘rule’

@Darryl_Watson @MrChuckD He said dis culture. Always competition.

@MrChuckD So u not w competition 🤔

@DownWestbound @jemelehill Even Jimmer Ferrdette (sp)

@jemelehill I watched the game yesterday. She was giving me Adam Morrison vibes about what's going to happen at the next level.

Y’all a trip 😂
