“Owners” in pro sports are in it to make money and build wealth.

I don’t believe that to be true. I think it is still a status symbol. There is probably much easier ways to build more wealth with when you are in that billionaire class than pro sports.

I think it is all a status/social circle item at that point in the world of billionaires.

They just started the new season so I assume that is why there is all the hate.

I ain’t going to lie. It got a little long at one point towards the end; however, it was a fine family experience. Definitely blows away a family experience with younger children at a normal baseball game. Kids would be bored by the second inning of a normal baseball game.

But let’s be real… most of those wins came against teams actively trying to lose. When they face legit competition, they’re still struggling unless multiple key guys are out.

I just want to post this interesting stat.

Since December

If Herb Jones plays the Pels are 20-15. That is not looking at anyone else on the team. That is not discussing growth of the rookies, Bey, or Murray’s return.

Willie Green was fired November 15, 2025.

35 games is a large sample size over a long period of time dating back into last year soon after Willie Green’s exit.

That 20-15 rate would put them 5th in the East and 7th in the West. I would say there is considerable upside potential for improvement going into next season considering the growth of Fears, Queen, Missi, and Matkovic as developing depth. Then you have Murray’s return to the team.

The Pels should lock him up long-term for sure.

The have won 11 games in their last 20 games. They won 10 games in their first 46 games.

I think firing Willie Green very early or before the season and then having Herb and Deonte healthy would have made this a totally different season.

The reality is there are still jobs out there to make money, but it requires people to work for it. There will be time and life sacrifices to earn real money. This delusion of easy money comes from them watching the select few entertainers making money for nothing on social media.

Younger generations have not necessarily grasped the idea that they will be working to provide for others when they start a family.

Now if they want to be single and have no kids then they can work hard at times so that they can have fun when they are off. That is the life decision.

Technology is just changing it where people cannot make money pushing paper around. It is enhancing others in ways where they can get just as much done with less people.

quote:The Pels are 13-8 since the start of December when Herb plays. Neat, so at their absolute maximum they are a play-in team if everything falls their way.

---

That’s a 62% win percentage. That is home playoff series in the 1st round range in either conference.

The organization blew it by letting Willie coach too long. Herb is important for defensive purposes. The longer lineups have been successful recently. The emergence of Bey has been great.

They have to figure how to keep people healthy on the roster to create consistency. They have upside with two young rookies and continued Missi development.

It is frustrating to see them struggle when they clearly have a large handful of talented players. The roster is not as poor as the board makes it out to be.

7th round pick with career earnings over $8.5 million.

He really does a good job. He should clearly play Bond also.

He was great as Superman.

2019, 2020, 2021, 2023, and 2024 were fine/good

2022 and 2025 were not good

I will be honest. I have never even heard anything from bad bunny. Never searched it out. I have been well aware of all the other recent artist.
