Did not know that... I guess it shows how much I pay attention to the NBA now... But thank you for the update...

The ones that irks me are the ones that Harden and Curry do on the step-back, step-back, three-point shot... Because they do that and get away with it most of time, the college and high school kids try that crap and then constantly complain if they get called for it...

You are already blocked by me... Sometimes I open up people that I have blocked to see what stupid thing that was said... I make it a game and try to guess what was said... Most of the time I am right, especially on yours... Congrats on being very predictable...

Corona Bud? Never heard of it...

Dude, you need to come up with a new schtick...

Some of them in the video they did call... But the fans want scoring, so if they called each travel, there would be a lot of stoppages and a much lower score... In the NBA and FIBA, when a player has taken more than two steps without the ball being dribbled, a traveling violation is called. The NCAA and NFHS do not allow two steps. In 2018, FIBA revised the rule so that one can take a "gather step" before taking the two steps. (from wiki)

https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/11/business/thailand-burger-king-cheeseburger-intl-hnk/index.html (Picture at link) Bangkok (CNN) — Burger King is causing a stir in Thailand with its new offering: a burger with no meat and a jaw-dropping amount of cheese. This week, the Thai operator of the fast food chain introduced what it calls the “real cheeseburger,” a bun filled with as many as 20 slices of American cheese. The item launched on Thai menus Sunday, at a reduced price of 109 Thai baht ($3.1), compared with the usual price of 380 baht ($10.9). It quickly went viral on social media in Thailand, with many users on TikTok posting videos of them trying the new sandwich. “This is no joke. This is for real,” Burger King said in a Sunday social media post. At one Burger King branch in Bangkok on Tuesday, a shift manager was overheard saying the outlet had to stop taking delivery orders so they could have enough stock left for walk-in diners. One customer who ordered the cheesy treat told CNN she’d tried it for the first time after seeing it on social media. Im Jeepetch, a 25-year-old IT engineer, said she loved cheese but “this was a bit too much.” “I could only finish half of it,” she said, wiping her mouth with a tissue. “This is an insane amount of cheese added into one burger. Food is good when things are at the right combination.” Im added that she would probably not order the gooey fare again next time: “Other burgers are already good. I think I will go back to my double cheese angus as usual.” Another customer echoed that view, calling the cheeseburger “too intense.” “I may not try it again. I like a few slices of cheese in my burger but not this much,” said Alisa Chuengviroj, a 26-year-old entrepreneur who sells skincare products online. Like Im, she said she had visited the store after seeing many people post about the burger online. The menu addition is an example of how fast food franchises around the world are seeking to gain traction by rolling out zany or eye-catching menu options that they hope will spread across social media. In the United States, Burger King has doubled down on the Whopper, a flame-grilled signature beef burger that has also taken off on platforms such as TikTok through a catchy commercial jingle that came out late last year. Restaurants are also continuously tailoring their offerings to suit local tastes in different countries. In Thailand, cheese is especially popular among young customers, and it is common for the dairy product to be sprinkled on all kinds of dishes. Burger King’s menu in the country also includes salmon katsu burgers, an apparent nod to consumers’ preference for a healthy alternative to beef. The chain is owned in Thailand by Minor International, a local hospitality group that is one of Asia’s largest restaurant owners. The company, which also operates outlets for brands including Dairy Queen and Benihana, did not respond to multiple calls from CNN for comment Tuesday.

Man I stink at this... Wordle 754 4/6 🟨🟨🟩 🟩 🟨🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Yes I got it in four, but kind of yanked it out...

Suspect in Larry Nassar stabbing said ex-doctor made lewd remark watching Wimbledon, AP source says https://www.yahoo.com/sports/suspect-larry-nassar-stabbing-said-182824794.html WASHINGTON (AP) — A prisoner suspected of stabbing Larry Nassar at a federal penitentiary in Florida said the disgraced former sports doctor provoked the attack by making a lewd comment while they were watching a Wimbledon tennis match on TV, a person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press. The inmate, identified as Shane McMillan, was previously convicted of assaulting a correctional officer at a federal penitentiary in Louisiana in 2006 and attempting to stab another inmate to death at the federal Supermax prison in Florence, Colorado in 2011, court records show. McMillan attacked Nassar in his cell Sunday with a makeshift weapon, stabbing him multiple times in the neck, chest and back before four other inmates rushed in and pulled him off of Nassar, according to the person familiar with the matter. Correctional officers assigned to the unit at the United States Penitentiary Coleman responded to Nassar's cell and performed what officials said were life-saving measures. He was taken to a hospital, where he remained in stable condition Wednesday with injuries including a collapsed lung. Cell doors on most federal prison units are typically open during the day, letting prisoners move around freely within the facility. Because Nassar was attacked in his cell, the incident was not captured on surveillance cameras which only point at common areas and corridors. McMillan, 49, told prison workers that he attacked Nassar after the sexually abusive ex-U.S. gymnastics team doctor made a comment about wanting to see girls playing in the Wimbledon women’s match, the person said. The person was not authorized to publicly discuss details of the attack or the ongoing investigation and did so on condition anonymity. Messages seeking comment were left with lawyers who’ve represented McMillan in his past cases. Sunday’s attack was the second time Nassar has been assaulted in federal custody. He is serving decades in prison for sexually abusing athletes, including college and Olympic gymnastics stars, and possessing explicit images of children. The attack underscored persistent problems at the federal Bureau of Prisons, including violence, short staffing and an inability to keep even its highest profile prisoners safe. The Bureau of Prisons insists that there was adequate staffing at the prison where Nassar was stabbed, about 46 miles (74 kilometers) northwest of Orlando, though documents obtained by the AP show one-third of correctional officer positions remain unfilled at the prison. In a statement Wednesday, the agency said it was “imperative that we increase our staffing levels” and said it was recruiting officers and using financial incentives to try to retain workers. Officials said they are also still working to “tackle the problem violence in our facilities” and have enhanced their security procedures, but would not provide details. “The BOP takes seriously our duty to protect the individuals entrusted in our custody, as well as maintain the safety of correctional staff and the community,” agency spokesperson Scott Taylor said. “We make every effort to ensure the physical safety of individuals confined to our facilities through a controlled environment that is secure and humane,” Taylor said. “As we continue to pivot out of a years-long pandemic, there are still challenges to confront and opportunities to improve our agency, protect the lives of those who work for us, and ensure the wellbeing of those entrusted to our custody.” McMillan is scheduled to be released from prison in May 2046, according to a Bureau of Prisons inmate database and court records, though that could change if he is charged and convicted of attacking Nassar. McMillan was originally sentenced to more than 20 years in federal prison after pleading guilty in Wyoming to conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine in 2002. He had been expected to be released next year before his convictions for the Louisiana and Colorado prison attacks more than doubled his sentence. In October 2006, McMillan punched a correctional officer who approached him in the recreation yard at the United States Penitentiary in Pollock, Louisiana, while investigating him for a prior inmate assault, according to court records. The blow knocked the officer to the ground and caused cuts and bruising to his face and nose. McMillan was sentenced to an additional five years. In November 2011, McMillan and another inmate attempted to kill a prisoner at the federal Bureau of Prisons’ Administrative Maximum Facility in Florence, Colorado, according to court records. McMillan and the other inmate stabbed the prisoner 66 times in a recreation area of the prison, known as the “Alcatraz of the Rockies.” They were each sentenced to an additional 20 years for the attack. McMillan arrived at the Coleman, Florida, penitentiary last December, according to records obtained by the AP. He'd spent the previous four years at a federal penitentiary in Tucson, Arizona, following stints at federal prisons in Allenwood, Pennsylvania, and adjacent to the Supermax lockup in Colorado, the records show. Nassar was transferred to Coleman from the Tucson penitentiary in August 2018. His lawyers said he'd been assaulted within hours of being placed in general population at the Arizona prison.

My thought as well...

I think I would have gone Bryce, because you know that there will be an extended slump sometime from one of those outfielders... But that is just me... You are the one in first, so you are doing something right...

https://tvline.com/news/mike-halac-mantaur-cause-of-death-wwe-wrestler-dies-obituary-1235011793/ Former WWE wrestler Mike ‘Mantaur’ Halac died Tuesday at the age of 55. The news was confirmed by his family on Facebook. “He went peacefully in his sleep,” his daughter Demi wrote. “He’s no longer in pain. This really hit home to lose my father. He will forever be in my heart and many others. I love you dad. Make the skies beautiful for me.” A cause of death was not disclosed. Halac competed in the WWF in the ’90s, but got his start in the German Catch Wrestling Association under the name Bruiser Mastino. He competed there from 1991-1994. Upon returning to the United States, he joined the WWF as Bruiser, only to later switch personas shortly after his arrival. The Mantaur character was a minotaur who charged and mooed at his opponents. His first Pay-Per-View Appearance was in the 1995 Royal Rumble. He lasted nine minutes before being defeated by Lex Luger. After leaving for a short stint in the Extreme Championship Wrestling, Halac returned to the WWF in 1996, playing the role of Golddust’s unnamed bodyguard and appearing in the In Your House 7 special. Golddust and Halac fought the Ultimate Warrior but eventually lost the match. Halac continued his career in wrestling until 2019. His last match as Mantaur was in April of that year, when he took part in Joey Janela’s Spring Break 3 Part 2 Battle Royal in Jersey City, N.J.
