This will disappoint Scott Hanson so much.

These critics should drop using letter grades, in favor of Victoria Jackson’s movie rating system:

  • ★★★★: Pretty good
  • ★★★: The best
  • ★★: The worst
  • ★: Pretty good

…and then award, like 15 stars to one team, and 3.5 to another.

Haven’t been paying attention. What stupid deal has Denver done this time?

[–] wordman@lemmy.ml 2 points 5 months ago (2 children)

No team is near me, so I said to myself “I’ll give it a chance and root for the team with the best logo.” But then the teams were revealed and every single one of the logos is terrible.

Is this superficial and dumb? Absolutely. But I haven’t paid attention since.

Yao Ming (an NBA basketball player) has, nearly single-handedly, saved the lives of tens of millions of sharks by simply asking citizens of China to stop eating shark fin soup. Since he started doing this, the price of shark fins has tanked, and 90+ percent of people surveyed in China support a ban on selling shark fins.

Millions of New Yorkers turned MAGA without them already. Take a look at who “represents” Long Island in the House of Representatives, for example.

But the Browns guaranteed all the money, and Denver didn’t.

I’d put down the Browns trade for Watson the same year as slightly worse.

I sold a bunch of 70’s and 80’s tabletop roleplaying stuff when I went to college. A few years ago, I reacquired many of those titles at collector’s prices. Not my most brilliant financial move.

Apparently there are mics on the tips of the goal posts.
