    Pretty weak. None of us as we are are good enough, and all of us can work on what we are to become better versions of ourselves. That's not an insult, it's an acknowledgement of the imperfection innate to humanity.

    Wait--you are human, right?

    I agree that could be really epic. Can you imagine the Moda crowd when he gets announced?

    I don't think it's a matter of "if he's healthy, he'll play". I think it's more like:

    "There's a 5% chance that any given player will get injured in a 7-game series. The chances for Nurkic to get injured are raised to 18%."

    (that's the basic idea, but I understand it's more complicated.) Nurkic playing is not unilaterally a good thing.

    For what it's worth, I think all religions are silly - not just Christianity. Sly just gave me a set-up for Christianity.
    But I just have to say that the part of your post I bolded is, again, a false equivalence. The lack of scientific explanation for a specific phenomenon does not mean that it's possible Jesus was born of a virgin, died, and was resurrected. By that token, then it's just as likely Athena sprung from Zeus' head fully formed - the amount of evidence in support of both stories is the same.

    A healthy, in shape Nurk would feast on this Whoriers team.
