The best thing about this project for me is how the Tapes name feels like a self fulfilling prophecy. An artist with work stored in the vault, not sure if they should showcase their unprocessed ideas. What a way to drop a mixtape, continuing with the theme of surprise drops. Cole weaves mastery through his... Continue Reading →
A pioneer of chaotic football: Tiago Motta..
I remember when Tiago Motta started testing a strange 3-4-3-1 formation with the keeper as part of the in-field players.He has silently been ironing out his football kinks and now is helping Bologna in the Seria A to a Champions League spot.

Note that nothing is perfect and so it will need to be created to be adaptable. But here... Continue Reading →
When a plan comes together
The past few games the GSW have been playing some good ball. Mostly it's because instead of having plays that heavily rely on Steph other shooters are coming through to pick up the work load. Strength in numbers they dubbed it😉But ever since Klay kinda fell off shooting wise. The reliance on Curry to score... Continue Reading →
Lunar Exodus
The year is 2050. Earth, once a vibrant cradle of life, now hangs heavy in the sky, a silent testament to our folly. Pollution, once a distant threat, now a choked planet, forcing humanity to seek refuge on the moon. But even here, in the sterile emptiness of lunar settlements, the shadow of greed continues...
