Right. With money like that, during each postseason, you could distract yourself with a lavish international vacation and not even think about playoffs. Playoffs? Y-y-y-you’re talkin’ about playoffs? No me interesa/Ça ne m'intéresse pas./Non mi interessa/Não me interessa.
Don't take this as a personal attack, because it's really a general comment. But, some people have no appreciation for hugely successful things. Like Taylor Swift, like Wegmans, like Jim Boeheim.
I don't understand what that means? Wegman's is a pretty universally appreciated grocery chain. Jim Boeheim is and was extremely appreciated nationwide.
You must have missed this thread about Wegman's. All you have to do is read the first page. You would think they would be universally appreciated, but not in Syracuse.
But Wegman’s is overrated and overpriced and I do not know anything about car accidents, but without Melo …You must have missed this thread about Wegman's. All you have to do is read the first page. You would think they would be universally appreciated, but not in Syracuse.
And don't get me started about Boeheim. Before Melo, JAB had many detractors feeling he was very overrated and couldn't win big games. After Melo, a lot of people felt he was too old, should retire, that he was a whiner and complained a lot. The NCAA issues never helped, and his haters bring up about what happened with the car accident, even though it wasn't his fault. They don't care he won 1100 games.
I don’t understand. Are we supposed to all/universally like everything that is “hugely successful?” Everyone has different criteria for what “success” is, for one thing. And then there’s still the matter of personal tastes. Thirdly, those three things are the ‘same.’ But, take Taylor Swift, for example. What does an “appreciation” mean? I will acknowledge that she’s hugely successful. Yet, I don’t like any of the music I’ve ever heard from her, which is not a lot, and I couldn’t identify more than one of her songs if I heard them blindly. Am I supposed to respect her because hundreds millions of other people like her? Doesn’t work that way.
Respectfully, saying one doesn’t like her music is different then saying she’s talentless.
I don't know any of her songs, but I know how many she has sold. And she is only 35 years old. She is a money making machine.
people in CNY have spoiled by wegmans. when you live elsewhere and deal with awful grocery stores and long lines, you have a better appreciation for it. I think the new wegmans in Norwalk CT is too small (by typical Wegmans standards) but folks around here still love it. It's all about perspective. It's a beautiful store, just a little smaller than their average store so you don't get quite the same selection of goods.You must have missed this thread about Wegman's.

I fully agree. I didn’t say any such thing.
To me Jim was a great coach who didn't realize when it was time to leave. Unfortunately that happens a lot with the great coaches, they never realize when it's time to leave. Unless they happen to have someone close enough to them to make them understand it's time to go.
It's not jealousy.
Yeah, it’s interesting some people only have a problem with billionaires when they’re old white guys. For everyone else, being a billionaire is completely fine.
