Slantalyst Opinion: It’s time to shrink the bench

Griffen and Storr need the minutes. We don’t go far in March without at least one of them finding their way. It might be better to have them take turns getting bigger minutes than trying to make each game even.

People bring up Passmore deserving minutes. That isn’t going to help us in March. He shouldn’t play unless we are up big or in foul trouble.

As much as I like Coit, we don’t need a third pg, and he should be our last option at the 2/3.

There are things Mayo does well, and things he doesn’t do so well, but he’s our most consistent offensive guard so he should be playing 30-34 minutes.

Harris and Moore are interchangeable to me. One or the other should be on the court. Together can be ok, but should be limited to no more than 10 mins a game and never when KJ is in the game (this won’t happen).

Never would have guessed this preseason, but Flory and Hunter together is my favorite lineup. However, there is the issue of fatigue and foul trouble. That should be less of an issue when KJ comes back.

Speaking of KJ, let talk 4/5 mins.

Hunter and Flory - 15 mins
Hunter and KJ - 15 mins
KJ and Flory - 5 mins
Flory and Storr or Griffen - 5 mins
Totals: Hunter 30, Flory 25, KJ 20 (this won’t happen either)

A minimum of 30 mins of every close game should have any and all of these possible combinations.

1. Harris or Moore
2. Mayo
3. Griffen or Storr
4. Flory or KJ or Harris/Moore or Griffen/Storr
5. Hunter

Not really that unreasonable iyam

The violent and intolerant Left.

Never in American history have protestors lined up outside justices' homes because they didn't like a particular decision. This is INTIMIDATION 101 by the violent Left
pushed by ignorant leaders like Obama, Warren, Shumer, Maxine, Pelosi and many others. The violent Left will get what they want if they have to loot, murder, take over city blocks,
threaten to pack the court, anarchy in the streets or burn our cities for over two years. This is today's sick Democrat Party.
Instead of putting a stop to these dangerous protests outside justies' homes like a real leader would do Moron Joe was perfectly fine with it. Why? Because he's a complete moron elected by morons.

What do you think the news coverage would be on this protests if we had a media that wasn't corrupt and 100% pro-Democrat? What coverage would there be if Republicans were protesting outside justices' homes? We all know the answer. It would be 24/7 anti-protestors!

And then we all knew this would happen. It only takes one sick nutcase Democrat to act out and murder as Democrat leaders encouraged.
Today's Democrat party is sick, sick, sick!

Trump's Economy

Bond yields on Gov't bonds are increasing in response to the Trump victory. This is pushing mortgage rates higher despite the Fed announcing a 25 bps rate cut today. Mortgage rates typically follow interest rates the Fed sets but it really tracks the bond yields. Those are increasing because Trump is expected to blindly slap tariffs everywhere which is inflationary. The cost gets passed to the consumer.

Wall Street is essentially pricing inflation increase due to a result of Trump's expected direct policy and actions. As a result, mortgage rates are increasing which in itself isn't good for people wanting to refinance to save money, or for homebuyers, builders and construction either.

If these tariffs are blindly applied everywhere, I would expect to see massive price hikes in food imported from Mexico, like avocados, tomatoes cauliflower & broccoli, onions, beans, pineapple, carrots, asparagus, garlic and much more.

Then there's the manufactured consumer grade crap form China, all of that will skyrocket in price. Even the "Made in the USA" stuff will go way up, because they use get the parts from China or process raw materials there.

The tariffs are speculatory because nothing has changed. But the mortgage rates are absolutely rising to highs right now.

It's a Cult


The only logical explanation is MAGA is a full blown cult of personality.

Excerpt:

"Even attaching Trump’s name to an otherwise effective message had a tendency to invert the results, this source said. If a moderator said that the covid lockdowns destroyed small businesses and facilitated the largest upward wealth transfer in modern American history, seventy per cent of the Republicans surveyed would agree. But, if the moderator said that Trump’s covid lockdowns destroyed small businesses and facilitated the largest upward wealth transfer in modern American history, the source said, seventy per cent would disagree."

Border Disaster: More blood on hands of Biden and the morons who voted for him

It's impossible to pick the greatest disaster caused by Moron Joe and his stupid supporters as there are SO many--- Afghanistan, Bidenflation, Covid failure, mandates failure, Ukraine, Russia/Iran/China/North Korea on the move, American military weakened, poor economy, savings disappearing, etc., but Moron Joe's border disaster has to be right up there at the top.

Every day Fentanyl kingpin Biden murders more innocent young Americans while Stupid Biden Voters ignore the carnage.

Off Topic Gary Woodland

NM 😂

Ok, I really will add something. I played golf recently with a KU guy who has been a PGA pro running a club for his entire career and he said he’d gotten to know Gary and he really is a great guy. In case we didn’t know that.

Will this jinx him? No. There’s no such thing. This is a PSA to educate those who may think it has an affect. I mean, he’s only 2 under, well off the lead. But I’ll be watching and hoping he has a good tourney and starts the year of playing well.

The KC Cheats

As I'm certain all of you are aware, the internet is ripe with haters accusing the refs of bailing the Chiefs out.

Normally I would not give a flying duck, but it is EVERYWHERE. It makes me wonder if this is the commonly accepted narrative of NFL fans not claiming KC heritage.

Do you believe most fans think we cheat, or are we seeing too saturated a sample size?

Oh, and feel free to list off reasons why we don't actually use the refs to win us games.
