Been vegan for four years for ethical reasons, but from a taste perspective, fried chicken is what I miss most

You are the police. I will fight you. I’ve never been as angry about a take in my entire 10 years on Realgm. Red beans, spicy chicken, better biscuits. Nuff said.

People that say Zion is 6'6" are either being disingenuous, or don't understand how NBA height listings work.

Zion is 6'5.5" barefoot. He didn't do the combine, but NBA heights are derived from measuring in shoes, and then rounding up. The difference between barefoot and shoe heights is typically around an inch and a half for guys that don't get ridiculous with lifts or padded socks.

Zion wouldn't have even likely needed the typical rounding up players recieve to reach 6'7". If you want to call him 6'6" then you need to subtract about an inch and a half from the listed height of nearly every NBA player.

For comparison, Justise Winslow's barefoot height is 6'4.5", yet through the magic of padded shoes, he's listed at 6'7".

I know it's minor, but I'm sick of seeing this weak smear on his height.

Further evidence RGM needs a -1 button.


I mean I'm right here, but I gave your post a +1 so the overall +/- is where you wanted it. Best I could do.

Drumsticks and thighs where its at tho

probably for the best. I respect the Spurs and their fans but I don't want to have to like them. I'd slander the Alamo or something but I'm too Texas for that. How about Fiesta and those stupid hats suck. :wink: Let's pretend it's ten years ago and we are relevant* franchises again and get our rivalry on.


*I am aware the Spurs never stopped being relevant.

TBH, this reaction from a Spurs fan was likely caused by PTSD related to the Wingstop nickname for Kawhi and Danny.

You triggered it, open carry Texas style.

Popeyes is great. If they still have this promo on opening day and I lived in NO I might even get it just for kicks.

But do yourself a favor and find the nearest Korean fried chicken place near you.

Thread needs a poll.

Which of these foods is truly Peak America?

Hot dog stuffed crust pizza

Double down sandwich

(These all make the Doritos taco seem like some Michelin-rated chef-crafted entree)
