No thanks, Bailey has boom or bust all over him and we need guys that are ready to contribute now. Stay at 7 and take Kon or if you think Utah wants him try to move up for him. Kon is the easy choice here and it’s so clear that Dumars will no doubt frick it up.

Everyone but the Pelicans I guess. Please for the love of all things good and decent ask to talk to Willie. We as a fanbase collectively beg you to take him far, far away from Airline Dr. The sad part is they wouldn't ask to interview him to be janitor but even if they lost their minds and actually did want to interview him, Mickey would never allow it.

Its very fun everyone should try it at least once.

If it lowers the asking price for him I’d absolutely look into a trade. Maybe Garland for Dejounte and the Pacers 1st next year plus another first a couple years down the road. The pick swap with the Bucks would be off the table though.

The trauma those guys went through is hard to even imagine. Like you said, very few like to talk about for that exact reason. At his funeral my great aunt was presented with his flag but later that day she brought me into their bedroom and gave me his flag and a asked me to get a box for her on the top of the closet. It contained a lot of his things from the military. She said that he would have wanted me to have it. One Christmas my fiancée at the time for one of my gifts had a few of his smaller things framed like his wings, his captain’s bars, patches and few others that I hung in my study at home.

My great uncle was a B-17 pilot in the 8th and my grandfather flew F6F Hellcats off the USS Hancock. My grandfather died when I was still young so my great uncle for all intents and purposes is my de-facto grandfather. He never enjoyed talking much about the war but I managed to pester him a few times. One of those times he told me about a mission to Bremen where they got hammered by flak and fighters. He managed to fly their ship home with 2 engines out, no flaps and so many holes in his tail that he had no idea how it stayed on. One of his engines had caught fire so badly that he was just about to hit the bailout alarm when it finally went out. He credits God and the B-17 for saving his life. After he passed I found out why he didn't like talking about the war from my great aunt, his wife. His best friend on his crew was his navigator and one of those missions he was killed by a near direct flak burst in the nose of the B-17 while his bombardier was badly wounded. He told her several times over his life that he felt responsible for his friend’s death. He carried that with him all his life but he would never let anyone see it. Always smiling, playing jokes, teaching bible school for the kids and my lord was he one strong old man. We had arm wrestling competitions all the time when I was growing up and he would make me look foolish. I think it wasn't until I was about 17 or 18 that I finally beat him, by then he was in his early 80’s. Miss him every day. They truly were the best generation.

All you can do is show Russia attacking civilians while Ukraine actually hits legit military targets. Putin gets his panties in a wad because 1/3 of his long range bomber fleet went bye bye in about 20 minutes so what does he do? Attacks civilians of course. That shows you the type of man that you are a fanboy of, rooting him on like a naive little girlfriend. He’s a fricking terrorist war criminal who deserves a noose at the Hague. If he told you to drop down and suck his 2 inch dick I bet you’d be slobbering on that thing before he stopped speaking.

How’s things going this week for your little hero Putin’s air force? You like seeing his bomber fleet barbecued? How about Russia’s supposedly great new Su-35 that got a AIM-120 up its arse and blown out of the sky by a hand me down F-16? Sure would have been helpful for that Russian pilot to have A-50 AWACS coverage. Oh wait……

Its all about if you pick the right girl or not. Puck wrong and youre in for a lufe of misery and divorce. Pick right and it will be the best thing that ever happened to you. I was one ones the ones that got lucky and she stuck by me through commission in the military with several deployments gone months at a time. Other friends worried nonstop what their wife or girlfriend was doing while they were deployed but I was lucky in that I truly had trust in the girl that chose me, not the other way around because I’m not afraid to admit I outkicked my coverage with her.

So 2/3 of your Tu-95S strategic bombers that aren’t in production anymore is just a distraction? Whatever you say…..
