OT: Around the League '24-25

[serp]

Given the bro culture that surrounds all sports, I start off assuming every athlete is a dumb POS until proven otherwise; it saves me the trouble of having of having to lower my expectations in the future.

Like its one thing to sell some overpriced sports drink or shit like that thats whatever but this woowoo new age spiritual bullshit is actively harmful. The fact the god damn piece of garbage Russel Brand is involved says as much. You can look up some of the shit he said about how he enjoyed hanging around parties at P.Diddies and connect the dots. You pall around with that guy selling scam trinkets my opinion of you is instantly complete craters.

I know a few golf pros who endorsed a copper bracelet that promised all sorts of benefits. I thought I knew one of them well enough to ask a question about whether it really worked. I got a glare and the answer, "Well, I'm wearing it, aren't I?"

My interpretation was that it was worthless as a medical assist, but very worthwhile as an endorsement deal.

Maybe you don't know this, but crystals are used in lots of high tech devices and instruments. But maybe you think your quartz watch is just "woowoo new age spiritual bullshit". And your phone. And TV. And even your grill to cook up some amazing Tejas beef. The list goes on, bro. It's not hippy dippy, patchouli BO nonsense. It's even in Revelations 21:11 & 18-21. The 12 Stones of Jerusalem. They're talking about crystals.

btw, I love Dallas and have been there many times. I always go on a burger exploration and, so far, my faves are Motor & Maple and Wingfields. Any other suggestions?

Any product if sold by Russel Brand is completely worthless. No matter what it is.
