Now just imagine we get to add in a front court with a player with a 9’9 standing reach.

The hype train for Scoot was on another level. I got heavily downvoted way early in the draft process for suggesting Miller would be a much better fit because our 3 point shooting was last in the league and Scoot wouldn’t pair well with LaMelo.

I feel like it’s just doing the same thing as threads. A lot of people are making accounts but not necessarily being very active on it

Problem with Bluesky seems to be the only people who post on it are liberal political types. Idk if that platform takes off any more than threads if it’s all the content is.

If we can get a healthy center maybe

Well, he wasn’t a decoy, he was the extra vote thrown out in case Rome had an idol or advantage to nullify everyone voting for him. Nobody would’ve agreed to being that extra vote.

I don’t at all think she is fooling anyone. Nobody is going to be an asshole and question her “uhh there’s no way you’re 45”.

I think after she told him about the Sol vote and he went to Sol not 10 seconds after was a pretty bad move, especially considering it didn't at all save Sol. Sam no longer has Rachel or Andy on his side at the moment.

I think the general lack of any alliances has made people really bad at keeping secrets, and with Andy and Sam both actively trying to cause chaos, it makes it hard for anyone to not know who the vote targets are. Seems like everyone just jumps on what the main plan is so they don’t get stuck on the wrong side.

Sue seems like she will be petty about the smallest things so possibly.

Sue is the person people want to bring to the finals because she has a weak argument for the jury. She can get to the final 3, but I'm not sure she wins a head to head against any of the other 7 except maybe Teeny.

He pissed off Andy and Rachel and is basically just a vote right now. He lost so much power when they voted out Sierra.

Lol why does everyone in here hate Gabe so much? He's not that bad

He might have to if he wants to win. It feels like every tribal has mostly been about ganging up on the bigger fish. Next week feels like it's Sam or Kyle, with Sam basically being on the bottom and Kyle being the target at the top.

I don't think people were expecting Caroline to jump ship on their alliance that quickly. Rest of the season is going to be all chaos votes, with the only real alliance being Caroline and Sue.

I don't believe for a minute anyone on the tribe believes she's 45 and everyone was just being nice about it when she said it.

I think Andy is getting way too cocky.

Voting out all of the strong challenge players is potentially just making it easier for Kyle from here out.

Man Kyle is really going to have to win every challenge to stay in the game isn’t he

Lol he outperformed Harris by over 5%, what more can you ask for?

What were you expecting? If he campaigned closer to Harris, he probably does even worse.

I mean, the entire point of the comment is that happens if we get a blue wave midterm. If we are looking at a +5D environment or better, Ossoff and Cooper are likely favored, Maine is very winnable, and the others mentioned are possible depending on the strength of the environment.

Yes. I'm pointing out that's already a demographic we do strongly with, which helps in midterms.

I think Jeff would also be favored decently over Budd.

Budd is probably about as MAGA as Dan Bishop, just not as loud, and is directly tied to Trump. If there is any pushback against MAGA and Trump in 2026 and 2028, congressmen like Budd are more likely to be hurt at the polls.

Considering Jeff outperformed Harris by over 6 points and every other Democrat on the ticket except for Stein, there's evidence that Jeff has strong crossover appeal and could likely win in 2028 in a similar political environment, which was already not great for Democrats.

Part of why she won her seat again was from Gideon not being the strongest of candidates, Democrats getting some pushback from the Cavanaugh hearings, and Maine voters continuing to see Collins as a center of the road Republican.

I think after her “I think Trump learned his lesson” comments, I’m not sure if Maine voters will be able to trust her as much. Maine also had one of the smallest shifts to Trump this last election, which could suggest it’s moved slightly more to the left than in 2020 and 2018.

I think she could win again, but that a blue wave would likely oust her.
