xp to tatum's video, lmao that's amazing. i mean it's a silly nickname and self-applied nicknames are almost always by definition silly. but that is also a prime example of the high comedy genre of a pro athlete, after expending more energy in a few hours than i probably expend in a few days, being asked to opine about the most random shit that they have no opinion about. <long pause> "grant played great tonight"

how do we feel about the 'too small' taunt in general?― jammin on the dud (Spottie), Thursday, March 24, 2022 1:31 PM (yesterday) bookmarkflaglink
from Lowes ten things article this morning:
10. Is "too little" jumping the shark?
I enjoy the classic "too little" taunt, executed by straightening one arm as low as it goes and flattening your hand, palm down -- as if you are shoving something to the floor, or patting a child on the head. (Remember when Pau Gasol petted Chris Paul's head? It did not go over well.)
Kevin Durant pinching his thumb and index finger together to metaphorically shrink Evan Fournier was a nice and very mean twist.
I like the scathing directness of the "rock the baby" taunt popularized by Russell Westbrook. There are stakes to it. Post that guy again and bonk one off the glass, and it's kind of embarrassing for you.
But everyone is doing this now, and I worry it's losing some bite. Guys are miming "too little" when there is almost no size advantage, or when the mismatch is so overwhelming it isn't close to a fair fight. LeBron hit Ish Smith with the "too little" last weekend. LeBron has nine inches and god knows how much weight on Smith; we already knew Smith was too little, and I'm not sure overpowering him is worth the boast.
