The Eastern Conference standings in the NBA showing the Boston Celtics with the second best record in their conference.
The fact that the #Celtics did this without Tatum (or Porzingis or Holiday or Horford) is one of the most surprising Boston sports developments in my lifetime.
I will never doubt Stevens or Mazzulla ever again. Or Jaylen. #NBA
...kind of proves that 1.0, 2.0 etc weren't first used to designate anything other than periods of time and why I'll personally never use them that way.
I use the 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0 designations as purely chronological markers. For me these labels have absolutely nothing to do with anything musical or stylistic in any way.
Grouping #Phish into stylistic periods is an interesting discussion. But no one would group 1989 with 1999 which to me...
Like, it's awful. Not his singing. The production. Over-produced and awful. Wish I had video of when his vocals came in because I made a face like I was in pain 🤣
My Grateful Dead education was 100% on live tapes. I have literally never sat down and listened to a studio album before. And to this day when I listen to them I go straight for live stuff.
Just listened to the studio Terrapin Medley for the first time and I *hate* the production on Jerry's vocals.
Ewwwwww
Happy birthday, fucker! 🤘
That album is so good! It came out during my first week in college in September '93 and I wore it out in the dorm. I had seen Helmet, Living Colour, Faith No More and Pearl Jam by the time this album came out. I couldn't believe getting a release with all of them on it.
This is one of my favorite albums and this is an awesome thread.
OTD 1971 Led Zeppelin debut Stairway, Going to California, Rock and Roll & Black Dog in this room in Belfast, Ireland.
The 11-year-old randomly started shouting Onion headlines off the top of his head tonight and he got me when he yelled:
"JFK JR SUCKS MEASLES VACCINE OUT OF TODDLER"
🤣🤣🤣
Just blasted Carry the Zero during a brief break and now I am happy 🥳
The percentage of people in a Trader Joe's who move slower than I do is 100.
So happy for you! Sounds like a perfect fit. Thank you for showing up to do such important work. 🙏

Hahahaha
Funny but I will be deleting all social media apps from my phone and turning off face unlock before re-entering the country. What a fucking time to be alive.
I fly to Spain in 9 days and I wonder if they will refuse my entry. I wouldn't be mad at them if they did.
This is violence.
Put me down for 100 on the hard over
At the eye doctor (waiting with my fellow olds) and some grandmother just started up a conversation to ask if I heard about a stabbing that happened yesterday. 🤣
Metallica’s Master of Puppets was released 40 years ago today on March 3, 1986. Quite possibly their best album, it’s brimming with concert staples and is a true no skips record. Not just among their best, it ranks up there with the best thrash metal albums ever. Cliff Burton went out on top.
Trae Young was just ejected from a game as a Washington Wizard before he ever played a game for the Washington Wizards and that's pretty hilarious. #NBA
The 11-year-old, who speaks like a 40-year-old, said "Remember when I was watching Reed Sheppard on TV and said he was overrated and was a bust? Well look at him now!"
The whole thing was delivered like a talking head on ESPN and cracked up multiple people in our section.
Kid is a riot.
💀
Dude you have to meet my kid. He will crack you TF up. He is a mini me. It is hilarious. And he loathes the Knicks. He would be in rare form 🤣
He can tickets at MSG or in Brooklyn. Would obviously prefer MSG. Setting an alarm now to ping him when the schedule is released!
Incredible! Actually I have a friend who works in the league office and he owes me a favor. Might need to try to get some complimentary rich people seats to see Steph at MSG next year...
Wizards will at least be interesting once they have Trae + AD + Sarr but yeah they are trying to lose right now. It will be pretty brutal, hence the pair in the front row of the section for under $50!
Schedule hasn't worked out yet. But we will make it happen next year even if we have to go to Charlotte or Boston or LA or SF. Next year it happens even if the DC date doesn't work for us.
There are days when I call my tuba something far worse than tool.
