If disappointment happens, it will feel like a major kick in the dick. DETROIT on that sunday was an intended waste for resting Lowry, but we gotta strike closer to 50 wins and when the 1st place iron is heating up

That NOR-POW picture is like he really wants that hug

#0 Crazy White Dude might be a 2nd round pick. Dellavadova potential
