    1. I think people would be shocked to realize how many Republican candidates are funded by super PACs led by large corporations (across varying industries).

    2. The Magic-Desantis connection is especially ironic given his previous scuffle with Disney and the Magic's connection with them.

    I would hope people wouldn't be shocked to find out how many billionaires are conservative. They definitely don't want a government that wants to make them or their businesses pay higher taxes than the average person. A ton of them are from old money and old money usually equals conservativism because the people on top are rarely looking for a change in the power dynamic, fiscal or social policies.

    Didn't you say something once about Lillard asking out if they use that pick? I seem to remember you getting blasted for that and i even recall you being told you weren't a real fan.

    Yes I did say that. Just a hunch, I had not heard any inside info. But yes I believe quite a few of the “experts” on here put me on blast for that. Thanks for acknowledging.

    Nice Job Lakers -- When Healthy AD is great but unless they plan on playing him like 5o to 60 games a season to limit the wear and tear on his body he will not even make it to the playoffs. I like the idea of the Lakers missing the playoffs but taking the Laker hate out of it I am not sure this is a good deal for the Lakers in the long run.
