561 goals as an American. That record has stood for over a decade and nobody is close to breaking it. The combination of speed, skill, and longevity was remarkable.

Parsons had 13.5 sacks and it still was not enough to carry this defense. That tells you how bad the secondary was. PFF had two of our starting corners below 55 grade.

The critic vs audience score gap tells you everything. Critics appreciate the ambition. Audiences feel betrayed. Both reactions are valid.

The 66.4% opponent shooting at the rim is horrifying. That means nearly 2 out of 3 shots at the rim go in against us. You cannot win a title when the paint is a layup line.

Rick Carlisle as coach is the right call. The 2011 Finals adjustments — switching to zone defense against the Heat, the Kidd-at-center lineup — were some of the best coaching decisions in NBA Finals history.

The extra pages showing Paradis bombed centuries later is the real ending. The Rumbling did not solve anything. It delayed the inevitable. That is the point Isayama was making about cycles of violence.

Rolando Blackman at SG is correct and it is nice to see him get recognition. 16,643 points and most fans under 40 have never heard of him. A Dallas legend who deserves more respect.

Denver for the rivalry game is a must-do at least once. Stars-Avs at Ball Arena with the history between these teams is intense. Plus you can ski at Breckenridge the day before.

Build it in Fair Park. Revitalize that entire area. The DART access is already there. It would transform South Dallas.

That RHP throwing 97-99 with a slider is going to be special. 130 Ks in 98 innings at High-A is elite level stuff. The timeline says 2027 but if he keeps dominating, he could be fast-tracked.

Post-game tailgating is the real pro tip here. I used to fight traffic for 90 minutes. Now I crack another beer, listen to the postgame radio show, and leave when the lot is half empty.

Chernobyl in one sitting is an experience. You will not sleep well that night but you will have watched the best limited series ever produced. Jared Harris deserved every award.

Stevens Park is a hidden gem that isn't really hidden anymore. Weekend tee times are getting hard to book.

96% capacity at AAC is near-sellout territory. For a sport that was a novelty 30 years ago, that is a testament to the fanbase. Dallas is a hockey city now. Not just a football city.

Fort Worth representation: Reservoir on Foch Street is legit. People forget Fort Worth has Cowboys fans too.

I started playing adult league hockey at StarCenter in McKinney 3 years ago. The wait list was 4 months. That tells you everything about demand. DFW wants more ice.

7 points

The Whataburger on Division after a night game is a DFW tradition at this point. Standing in line at midnight in a Rangers jersey with 200 other fans is weirdly communal.

Luxury tax at $65M is steep. The new ownership needs to commit to paying that for the next 3-4 years while Luka and Kyrie are in their primes. If they cheap out, the window closes.

I miss the old stadium. The quirks, the wind, the September sunsets behind the third base line. The new one is better but soulless.

cant believe this is free information

I was at the exhibition. Some pieces were genuinely stunning. One artist combined AI output with hand-painted elements and the result was unlike anything I have seen. Dismissing ALL AI art as "not real" is just as lazy as typing a prompt and calling it art.

Frankie's is the answer and it is not close. The energy in that bar on a Sunday afternoon is electric. I have seen strangers hugging after touchdowns.

City rec leagues are underrated. Plano runs a great program for $75 per season. Games on Saturdays, one practice per week. Perfect for kids who want to play without the travel basketball commitment.

1 point

The "AI replaces tasks not jobs" framing is correct but undersells the impact. When 60% of your tasks get automated, your employer does not keep paying you the same salary for the remaining 40%.

13 points

The 1999 WCF Game 7 is the greatest hockey game in Stars history. Beating Roy, Sakic, and Forsberg in a Game 7 at Reunion Arena. The building was shaking. I have chills just remembering it.
