NBA free agency is officially a dud this year

NBA free agency has started and it's a dud. I'm gonna say it right now. It's a dud.

Free agency results are subjective, but the lack of major stars moving makes this a widely held view.

The NBA should rename the 'Second Apron' to 'Prison' to make it easier to understand

They gotta get rid of the apron word. I'm so sick of it. If they just called it jail and prison, I think it would make a lot more sense because that's really what it is. The second apron is prison. They basically, for people who don't understand what they've done with the salary cap... they restrict you. They put you in prison.

This is a branding suggestion and therefore subjective.

The NBA should have a random one-hour window where the salary cap is turned off completely

It's essentially video game rules. And Adam Silver just says for the next hour salary caps off. You turn off salary caps, you could do any trade ever. And you have to get your players signed in that window... And then he is like, boom, salary cap's back on.

This is a hypothetical policy change.

Nate Diaz is a sobering reminder that most men are 'bitch made'

Nate Diaz is a healthy reminder. It was like there's levels to being a man... He's an absolute savage... It's the most sobering reminder of like, yeah, I might be bitch made. 'Cause Nate Diaz is walking, his face was a faucet of blood.

Subjective appreciation of Nate Diaz's toughness.

Going to a nightclub solo and dancing for two hours is a freeing experience

I went to the bar, had a couple of beers and then went to the dance club. I don't dance very well, but it's fun to bust a move once in a while... It was incredibly uncomfortable, but it was like, it felt good to just, you know, get out there a little bit. I was just dancing... not too bad.

Subjective life experience.

Ronda Rousey might win her return fight in the octagon against Gina Carano

Ronda Rousey... she's returned to the octagon after like 3,400 days, she's got a chance to maybe right the ship and get a win. I thought it could be exciting.

This fight was never officially booked or completed in the professional MMA landscape.
