11 hours ago@LukeCar92231304 @therealsupes Right?! Bane had BARS!! “Peace has cost you your strength, victory has defeated you” “Theatricality and deception are powerful agents to the uninitiated” “Then you have my permission to die” “You think darkness is your ally, but you merely adopted the dark”

a day ago@bomberjacket5 @a_gilmore88 @Andrew_Forrest1 LOL. You make it sound like he only stood & pointed. Yes, he was an orchestrator THAT’S WHAT A PG DOES 😂. He moved plenty. Unfortunately, you can’t teach his court vision which is what we lost after his injury. I’ll just leave this here as a refresher 😉 youtu.be/NdvEPKzH3j8

a day ago@SquatUniversity Love my Vivos!! Only shoe I have lifted in now for the past 8 years. Stealths, Primus, even my ultra blooms and Magna trails are fantastic on the strength floor @VIVOBAREFOOT

a day ago@UNC_TarHeelFan Yea & if you add 4 yrs to the beginning of that 1st stretch, the numbers are literally the same. (‘76 & ‘79). UK, KU & dook w/ HC changes ‘80-‘85… history repeats itself as UNC & dook have already made HC transitions. Could UK be next? Also uncertainty around Self’s health rn

Stan Ward @StanSteam88
a day ago@CBSSports Cherry picking stats here. Add just 4 years to the beginning of that first stretch (‘76) and the numbers are the same. And yes, I get that the first is longer… but big coaching changes happened at 3 of the 4 schools from ‘80-‘85 which spearheaded the modern era of their success

Stan Ward @StanSteam88
a day ago@bomberjacket5 @a_gilmore88 @Andrew_Forrest1 You say this like Marshall was an anomaly type of player for the Heels. Yes, he was a fantastic pass-first point guard (duh). This is 1 of THE 2 most prioritized skills at that position in the game along w/ ball handling. Phil Ford and Ed Cota walked so Marshall could run.

2 days ago@PSG_English @KimKardashian Saw that they lost, and was initially confused… then I see this and it explains everything 🫠

2 days ago@Challenger_ST See this crap all the time. Mostly ppl who aren’t serious rather competitive in social groups. Ultimately, I remind myself the recreational crowd is prob out there downing beers and crushing the clubhouse buffet so they have bigger probs than drive distance

3 days ago@rodeguirez @RealMona_ @DailyLoud Well not the whole 25 years. He did say he quit looking after a while. He also bought his family a home from what he made off of Indy so he was chillin

3 days ago@TildonW @TimmyMieldezis @JudgeBobOrr Thank you, Tildon. I’ve been trying to say this exact same thing to some of our delusional peers for the past week. Transfers are a guarantee when you’re an elite program. HD has a vision. Gotta give him a chance to implement his system AND recruits

Stan Ward @StanSteam88
3 days ago@Briccyardlilyo My goodness. This is getting ridiculous. People, this IS Coll. Bball now!! Blame the NBA, not the coach. HD is embracing change. Kerwin left, 3.8ppg this season. Ant Harris still hasn’t touched the floor since he left. There’s no “purge”. We literally just took a recruit from UK

Stan Ward @StanSteam88
3 days ago@hunterrogue99 @THBBrandon Because we had better guards around him this season. Dunn developed into a much better defender and overall player while Trimble was a better option on D as well. I love Trez, but we will be fine and he will be as well.

Stan Ward @StanSteam88
3 days ago@Australis_B @tarheelanalyst @JudgeBobOrr You’re missing my point. I’m agreeing with you. This is uncharted territory bc for the 1st time in a while (post investigation) we’re back in the convo for 4-5⭐️ recruits. Means guys will ultimately get lost on the bench due to incoming talent (I.e. Bama Fball) now add the portal

Stan Ward @StanSteam88
3 days ago@tarheelanalyst @FlameHairMac We made it work just last season. One might say this year’s chemistry “issues” were from non-transfers (even though I think that was blown way out of proportion).

Stan Ward @StanSteam88
3 days ago@tarheelanalyst @JudgeBobOrr I don’t agree. This isn’t rent-a-player, we’re adapting to the norm. If you want to point fingers, blame the NBA. The portal has the same effect on Fball for elite schools. We will reload. HD hasn’t even had 2 full off-seasons as HC yet

Stan Ward @StanSteam88
3 days ago@THBBrandon Ok?? You don’t have to “buy it”. This is the landscape now. Post NCAA investigation, we compete for 4-5⭐️ recruits again. Kids get buried in the talent. Doesn’t always work out. Bama Fball lost 17 to portal this yr. All will start @ their new schools. Prestige is a dbl edge sword

Stan Ward @StanSteam88
3 days ago@mrdrsize @Cameron_J_T @THBBrandon Thank you! Finally some sensible fans in these replies. I LOVED Styles, but when you commit to a blue blood in Bball, it’s similar to a Bama/OSU in Fball. Talented kids get buried bc of the talent around them. Unfortunate but part of the cost of being a prestigious program.

Stan Ward @StanSteam88
3 days ago@KeepingItHeel @JordanFalls The Mid Major slander is crazy. Mark Sears (Bama) Johni Broome (Aub) Tristen Newton (UConn) Norchad Omier (Mia) Nelly Cummings (Pitt) Darrion Trammell (SDSU). All came from Mid Majors. I could go on. Point is the days of scoffing @ them bc of 1st school are over. Talent is talent

Stan Ward @StanSteam88
4 days ago@HeelIllustrated Wild responses to this. It’s just stats. Not hard to comprehend guards on the roster from last yr 2 this yr got much deeper. I love Styles, but maybe he didn’t fit the scheme. You don’t see Bama/OSU fans blaming Saban or Day when Hurts/Burrow transfer. We’re not @ the practices.

4 days ago@Sinokei_ @EquallyFern @ara_ambrose @Berfs1 @ValueAnalyst1 @GuyDealership This 06 would be roughly $140/mo payment. 38mpg hwy would be ~$1700-$1800 annual in fuel. Those costs combined still less than a Tesla lease payment alone. I get the sentiment, but if looking for affordability, there’s better options

Stan Ward @StanSteam88
5 days ago@ara_ambrose @Berfs1 @ValueAnalyst1 @GuyDealership Yea, not sure you helped your argument by comparing leasing a Tesla and a Toyota. If it’s about being cost aware, you’d be better off buying a used Toyota w/ low mileage. Just get your oil changes and tire rotations at Walmart or an Indy shop and that thing will stay on the road

Stan Ward @StanSteam88
5 days ago@CrownedPrinceHC Right?! Thought about this too. Nice break from the stress. Comes with the territory though

a week ago@YoungRaww95 @BrysonGordon UNC has been to 3 of the last 6 title games w/ 2 diff coaches not named Smith. Hanging a banner in that span. You keep projecting that we’re “mad”. Are we upset we don’t get to play for another title, absolutely bcuz that’s our expectation. I’d say the brand is doing just fine.

a week ago@theUSofAmanda @kelsaywhat @hgargan Nope. We called it that as well as the Hairy Peter.
