And honestly, this Dinart guy is just a total jerk 🙂

Jessica Gonzalez said:The social trends that drive—or result from—modern philosophies are pretty complicated, and I guess you can't really solve them with just one single system or move. Take the situation in small-town America, for example. People move away from these rural areas, and everyone seems to mourn that loss. They point to the lack of jobs, the dying industries, and the lack of opportunity. But honestly, this mass migration from the countryside to the big cities has been happening all over the world, including right here in the States, for decades now. Most young people, especially those who have gone through college, just don't see themselves living in a rural town. Capital, convenience, and decent career paths are almost always concentrated in metropolitan hubs. I suppose the resentment felt in these struggling rural areas stems from that shift. Smaller communities in the American heartland aren't really concerned with things like transgender rights, California politics, or overseas conflicts. It’s just not on their radar. When a candidate shows up promising to bring manufacturing and jobs back to their doorstep, that’s when they get the vote. That candidate might be exaggerating, but they're telling people exactly what they want to hear. Major news outlets have spent months covering these elections, focusing on those specific regions where, maybe a generation or two ago, there were plenty of solid jobs available for people without a degree. It's unlikely that any one leader will actually reverse those economic tides, but they certainly know which buttons to push to win an election.

Obviously, going to a university opens up way more doors for you, but I highly doubt employers are out there scrambling to hire some philosophy major, an occupational safety engineer, or a crisis management specialist. 🤣It feels like America is just cranking out college grads right now just so politicians can brag on the world stage about how we have 20 percent higher ed coverage instead of ten. But honestly? I guess they’re all just gonna end up using shovels instead of degrees, and most of these folks aren't exactly thrilled about that. They aren't exactly built for manual labor or getting their hands dirty in some trade, you know? It's such a shame they picked the wrong majors... they'll either be working hard in the dirt or just starving. I mean, you see guys with philosophy degrees working as servers in Chicago, and don't even get me started on the economists—I know a few personally who are in the same boat. 😁
Wait, when did I even bring up religious groups? Honestly, I don't give a damn about them—I wouldn't give them a cent. Just for the sake of argument though, looking back, we've basically always been run by people with fancy college degrees, you know? Highly educated types. And look where that's gotten us... nowhere. I mean, I haven't really noticed any major difference in election results just because we have more people with degrees running things now. As long as the main Democratic party keeps sweeping the majority instead of actually struggling to even hit the threshold, there’s really nothing left to debate. And the American education system? Yeah, it's pretty much trashed. I mean, sure, there are some exceptions here and there, but it's gonna stay messed up for a long time. The government just doesn't have the cash, and even when they do find some money or go into debt to get it, it just ends up lining someone's pockets anyway. I guess that's just how it's been since this country was founded.

Yeah, I guess Kopljar used to be able to avoid fouls whenever possible, and even when he did pick one up, he wouldn't really hit them (except maybe against France back in 2012, when we beat them by 6 or 7 points, I think).
This version of Kopljar is night and day compared to how he used to be. The guy scores, he’s aggressive on offense (way more than before), and honestly, talking about his defense doesn't make much sense—anybody standing at 6'10" would be a decent defender, and if they actually understand the game, then even better.
The point is—our small forward isn't any less of a player in the offensive department, no matter how hard most people try to ignore it.
