  1. I just realized they didnt show rodman kicking the photographer. that was a big story at the time.
  2. hawks would have the 12th seed
  3. It was both a "Jordan is the GOAT!!!" piece AND a "did you know what a giant dick Jordan was???" at the same time not really. the stuff in there that made him look dickish was mild and likely undersold how bad it really was. plus it was always followed by him doing something awesome on the court to immediately make it seem justified. they put the bare minimum of negative stuff in there. just enough to be able to say they covered it all
  4. it was a 10 hour suckfest of michael. i don't know how anyone can deny that. but that's okay. they never really marketed it as some cutting documentary about the morality of being a bad person to win. the 90s bulls were an awesome thing that a lot of people remember fondly, and it was fun watching it all play out with triumphant music playing in the background, especially during a time when we have no other sports to watch.
  5. it is incredible to me that the cubs world series happened less than 4 years ago
  6. it's funny how they spent all that time on kerr, but still kind of undersold his game a little bit. he wasn't a complete scrub like rudy or something, he had a truly elite skill. he shot .454 career from three. like yeah he was a role player, but they didn't even mention how lights out he was as a shooter.
  7. i still knew they were going to lose
  8. i completely forgot about ho grant being hoisted up after beating the bulls. 11 year old me was irate
  9. i hope they show wennington's dunk in the double nickel game tonight
  10. Not a single player nor reporter has corroborated this.
  11. as a kid, that was the only of the 6 title seasons where i actually remember thinking they were going to lose
  12. they didn't spend enough time on the knicks series. they literally didn't even mention that they had played a 7 game series against each other the prior year. in general i also wish they would show more actual basketball stuff, especially since we know the non-basketball stuff will be watered down.
  13. swept by the dodgers, fml
  14. it's funny to think that the blackhawks might play postseason games this year
  15. i never said i didn't want to it to happen. i'll take whatever half assed sports leagues i can get right now. i'm saying it from the perspective of the players and the people running the league. i'd rather cancel the season than award some watered down championship that is always remembered as the corona cup or whatever. That’s all fine. But there’s plenty (and I include myself in this) that would be fine with sports back in some capacity for entertainment and distraction if it can be pulled off safely and don’t really care what it means historically with championships or W/L records. i said that too

I think the people running the league care most about making as much money as possible. yeah i forgot about that
  17. because it would be lame as hell celebrating championships in empty arenas It would definitely be different but tons of people would still watch and get enjoyment out of it and a distraction from everything going on. Just seems like it’s impossible to do anything with fans and anything more than essential personnel in arenas/stadiums if we want sports back anytime soon. If they can do it safely I’m all for it, it being different and weird be damned. i never said i didn't want to it to happen. i'll take whatever half assed sports leagues i can get right now. i'm saying it from the perspective of the players and the people running the league. i'd rather cancel the season than award some watered down championship that is always remembered as the corona cup or whatever.
  18. ? i didn't say these things were doable. i said i wouldn't bother finishing if you can't do them. but, like, why would fans be necessary in elimination games for some reason? because it would be lame as hell celebrating championships in empty arenas
  19. if fans aren't there at least in elimination games, i think it's a bad idea. and if you change the playoff format, will it ever really be as revered as a normal championship anyways? Are you aware of what’s going on in the world? ? i didn't say these things were doable. i said i wouldn't bother finishing if you can't do them.
  20. if fans aren't there at least in elimination games, i think it's a bad idea. and if you change the playoff format, will it ever really be as revered as a normal championship anyways? like imagine if the cubs had finally won the world series in some watered down playoff format in empty stadiums. it would never feel real.
  21. that suns series was so great. horace blocking the scumbag kj at the buzzer is an underrated bulls moment
  22. did anybody have that vhs for the first 3peat? i watched that so many time that it eventually broke, and there was no internet to find out how to fix it.
