Shit is dire for the Sixers, man. The Process has netted them Tyrese Maxey (might be a top 2 player on a title team) and not a lot else. Embiid may or may not even be able to play next season. Yet, his new contract extension kicks in TWO seasons from now, when he will be 32. Ouch.

Going on a 16-0 run in less than 4 minutes is pretty crazy on its own, nevermind in the 4th quarter vs the best team in the league.

Pressure Washer did it for me. It's tedious work, but man, that concrete just about sparkles when you're done.

LOL. This is one of the wildest things he's ever done to an opponent in a game and that is saying a lot. 1of1.

Learning about The Lefferts and Nostrands was an eye opener, too. Makes sense since so many of the original Dutch colonizers were slave owners. It's so ubiqutious, so baked into the bread of the origins of everything here, it hides in plain sight -- if you aren't taught better.

And Brooklyn, lmao. urbanomnibus.net/2021/04/the-...

This looks like it comes in a gift set with AXE body spray, 10-in-1 Shampoo/Body Wash, and Dude Wipes.

It's easy to forget: the dialoge, symbolism, and prescience embodied in this scene is so freaking good. Racism is precisely this. It's in the air you breathe, the ground underneath your feet, the food you eat, and the very systems and people around you to keep perpetuating it, knowingly or not.

The jacket is fly, no doubt, but the 'fro steals the show.

About damn time. This is a baseball team, not the military.

It really is something that this critique, while perfectly reasonable, reads eerily similar to the lack of sensible gun control policies in the US.

This is still the hardest jacket ever.

I saw someonne's driver's license yesterday & it had a year 2000 date of birth. My brain short circuited for a good minute. Hell u mean you were born when I was in high school? I just about had an existental crisis then & there. The things I muse on while taking my daily joint health supplement.

nike didn’t have to go this hard with the eagles sb commercials goddamn 🔥

'91 WAS is probably the most underrated great team of the SB era. The '94 49ers are the best team I remember, but they still weren't better than the '92 Cowboys. The '89 49ers are on another planet. The gap between the '90 Bills & '90 Giants in this chart should be a headshot of Bill Belichick.

Also, shoutout to the team at Bluesky for meeting the traffic demand during the biggest pop culture moment of the year. The SL didnt have a single blip or slowdown. Gif library and video quality still needs a bit of work, but the trains ran on time last night during rush hour, so to speak.

For all of his brilliance last night, I can't imagine what Kendrick Lamar has cooking for his June tour stop in Toronto.

This is a SHOT

Kendrick Lamar's Superbowl performance is why funding arts and humanities matters. We have Kendrick because his teacher introduced him to poetry and writing.

Peace and a clear conscience. This is more valuable than anything else.

Nike's marketing and advertising dept is the best in sports.

Do not tangle with someone who would take glee in lighting your corpse on fire and then spit on your ashes. Kendrick made it a moral imperative to destroy the idea of Drake, and in that, he has gone far beyond anyone's wildest expectations. I've never seen someone get eviscerated like this.

Paying a RB top of the market money when you are rebuilding wouldn't have been wise. But their roster mismanagement is the reason they were forced to make that decision to begin with. Ownership, coach, and GM have to wear this colossal screw up forever.

He put up a Super Bowl MVP.

Absolutely ncredible. If you can get consistent pressure with your front four only, the opposing OL is in hell, and the QB has to pass through a forest of defenders. All of that equals a hard day no matter how great the QB is. Line play, baby.
