The Ringer Thread: Complain about everything, yet still consume content

Come on over to the dark side with me brother. Every good sci fi flick ends up with the computer turning heel at the end anyways.

 

You seem to remember me hating on Kobe more than I do. I don't remember being especially anti-Kobe compared to others back in the day, but perhaps my memory is terrible.

 

I think it’s time to delete Simmons podcast after this latest one with cousin sal. Listening to him wine about a 9-1 patriots team was the last straw. He’s unbearable.

 

disappointed that Gallant Knight didn't top the $91K bid to guest host Guess the Lines, could've put the horse racing winnings to good use

 

So is OSP like done for good? I thought Titus was going to try and keep the show going on w/o Tate....I guess it didn't work out?

 

He decided to leave

 

This James Harden pod sucks. No one listen to it 0/10

 

just be glad he finally gave us his take on the Harden trade, I've been wondering

 

Lmao, he's been beating that dead horse until he's just pounding wet cement

 

I hope Titus doesn’t have to wait until after this season to launch a new pod. I miss OSP.

 

Gronk is currently dancing with the Laker girls at halftime, get ready to see a gif of that in Bill's Twitter mentions for the rest of time

 

according to Bill the Lakers are the only team in the league with injury concerns

 

He has now caused both Hayward's broken hand and Kemba's concussion through online hubris

 

He deserved every ounce of grief he got for it. It was fucking horrible

 

but he "doesn't read his mentions"

 

maybe tic tac and melatonin had an acrimonious breakup

 

KOC gushing over Kemba moving a suitcase out of someone’s walkway is the new “Dak threw away his own cup”. One of the lamest complements I’ve heard for an athlete.

I’ve tried, but i just can’t take KOC seriously. The drop off from Lowe to KOC for Simmons’ NBA coverage is Michael Jordan to Pete Myers level drop off.

 

not sure why they had to leave the company to start this pod

 

Now they own the means of production

 

is nephew kyle getting a t&t tattoo now?

 

what was the first intro?

 

An insanely terrible rap verse by his son

 

Pass it to Luke-ya, he’s gonna juke ya

 

creepy AF

 

theringerBS33 sounds like it was actually Bill.

also a weird flex.

 

His explanation being that he follows Bills son on IG took it to another level

 

I'm normally opposed to bragging about whipping 13 year olds at things. This is not one of those times.

 

yeah, I'm still out on creepy reddit madden guy.

 

I think he's properly rated

 

following a 12 year old that you aren't related to is bad enough, but sliding into the dms...

creepy reddit guy should be put on a watch list

 

Morey pod worth listening to? He's usually a snooze.

Wonder if we get a Haralabob appearance on any of these

 

Curious what the Rewatcheables is this week. I know the last one of the year is Godfather 2 but they should have 3 more before that one coming out.

 

have had zero interest in the last 4-5 episodes and the last decent one (RtT) Bill kept butchering Bertier's name...they are overdue for a good episode

 

I agree this fall have been pretty underwhelming. I liked Skyfall last week and Shawshank Redemption.. Didnt listen to The Holiday. I only made it through half of Den of Thieves and Remember The Titans. I didnt really care for either of those movies when I saw them. Do The Right Thing was ok.

Not really my idea od truly Rewatcheables this fall. There are so many good ones they havent done.

 

I didn't listen, but I get the Holiday. It is a very rewatchable rom-com.

The other movies, pretty meh.

 

Wolf of Wallstreet Rewatchables

Very good.

Shockingly Ryen with an E knows everything there is to know about Jordan Belfort.

 

It was disorienting listening to him complain about markets and financialization.

 

just doesn't feel right having the Dirk episode drop while Luka is on hiatus.

Also when did Manu become European? Pretty sure he's from fucking Argentina

 

This is magical

 

I’m halfway through it and I like it. At least Ryen said he could only get through the first chapter of his book because he hated the guy. He repeatedly calls him a piece of shit which he is.

 

This isnt shocking at all haha

 

Today’s BS pod reminding everyone how bad things get when Bill’s ideas extend beyond “Let talented filmmakers do docs on sports subjects that interest them”

 

I made it through the tournament portion and then turned it off. I'd had enough

 

But you missed what ear cancer must feel like at the 35:10 mark
