It’s a take that deep down I know is wrong.
A take that I’m sure can be proven incorrect by science.
But I’ve been smoking weed since I was 16 years old.
They’re all the fucking same to me.
I have half a mind to think that the marketing of indica vs sativa is just completely made up.
Never once have I smoked sativa and thought, “Wow I feel energized and motivated”.
That’s an insane concept to me.
When I smoke weed, no matter what weed it is, I enjoy myself for about 30 minutes.
Then I think about how I’m going to die someday.
No matter what strain of weed I smoke, that’s the exact experience I have.
I think weed strains are fake news.
I might just start using Dumping Them Out to share old tweets from complete strangers.
Just tweets I find hilarious.
This gem from 2018 came across my desk today.
I’m not proud about doing that, but it happened.
That has to be the best tweet in the history of Easter.
Did anybody else see this TikTok posted yesterday about over inflated basketball in the NCAA Tournament?
I have no clue how legit that guy is.
Apparently he’s a shooting coach.
He sure talks like he knows what he’s doing.
Every air ball I attribute to overinflated balls.
That sounds great and all, but that has to be highly illegal right?
That’s literally what Deflategate was all about.
We can’t just have PG’s deflating balls to their liking across the league, right?
That seems like it’d be a problem.
Again, that whole video is very possibly bullshit.
But this shooting coach is in my head now.
Now, every time I see a turnover I’m blaming it on an inflated ball.
I’m watching this Purdue-Tennessee game right now.
But as a casual fan, every weekend, I somehow end up watching a Purdue game.
And every Purdue game, Zach Edey goes to the free throw line 100 times.
On Twitter, people are always mad about it.
I get mad about it too.
It seems like every time Edey moves he gets a foul call.
But again, what the fuck do it know.
I’m just an Indiana fan who gets mad about Purdue.
I know I’m biased.
HOWEVER, I did umpire Little League baseball for over a decade.
I’m dying to hear what they have to say about their Zach Edey calls.
Edey has been getting these calls for years.
I just want to hear what that reason is.
I would love to be a fly on the wall for that candid conversation between referees.
Why the fuck are we protecting them so much?
They’re paid good money.
They should be able to speak for themselves.
I honestly think it would help the refs image if they did thatt.
Refs are human too.
They should want the opportunity to explain themselves.
I feel like that would go a long way.
Maybe I’m giving fans too much credit.
That would totally disarm him.
Crazy sports Dad’s aren’t used to that.
But when you do that, you’re able to actually have a real conversation about the game.
In the end, they’ll either agree or disagree.
If I come to the conclusion that I was wrong, then I’ll admit it.
But at least the fans will respect you for being willing to talk about it.
And they can see that you’re trying to get better.
That’s only going to help the ref’s image.
There has to be some communication between the media and the refs.
We’ve gone way too long without it.
