What Would A Gregg Popovich Presidency Look Like?

[Spur|n|Austin]

LOTS OF SHARING, A STRONG NATIONAL DEFENSE, ROBUST FOREIGN POLICY, AND DAILY WHITE HOUSE PRESS BRIEFINGS FROM TIM DUNCAN.


The year is 2020. Donald Trump is still president of the United States. With the election looming, the Democrats are still struggling to scrounge up a clear front-running candidate—liberal icon Elizabeth Warren decided not to run, while Bernie Sanders aged out of the competition. Hillary Clinton is still hiking in the woods somewhere.

Every man woman and child would own a vineyard

[SpurPadre]

Congress would get over themselves.

[james evans]

lots of holidays for rest

[TheDoctor]

NASA's budget would increase exponentially for sure TBH

[SpurPadre]

Matt Bonner would be the Secretary of Sandwiches

[TheGreatYacht]

NASA's budget would increase exponentially for sure TBH
:lol

[Dre_7]

Congress would get over themselves.

That would be amazing! Term limits would be great too.

[spurs10]

Congress would get over themselves. Beat me to it!

On immigration for Manu's visa- "He's Manu Ginobili!"

[Cry Havoc]

If he caught a member of Congress acting like a fool, they would be suspended without pay for a few weeks until they proved they could hit an open 3 to get out of the doghouse.

NBA officials would have regular report cards based on performance and it would be tied to their pay/bonuses.

Napa Valley would be considered the 17th wonder of the world.

All children would be required to hit a stone with a hammer 999 times, to teach them what hard work is like. Another child would be allowed to strike it and break the rock, to show them how it feels when someone else takes credit for their work.

Common core would be dropped nationwide in favor of a decade of post-up, a decade of motion, and then a continuing education of iso, respectively.

[SpurPadre]

That would be amazing! Term limits would be great too.

Maybe he could eliminate gerrymandering too.

[SpurPadre]

Beat me to it!

On immigration for Manu's visa- "He's Manu Ginobili!"

LOL. Also, he'd have Bonner in charge of handling nukes. Bonner would be fine in that role as long as he doesn't have to launch in April-June, when he'll most likely miss his WIDE OPEN targets.

[south side spur]

The mediots would get shat on the way those worthless scumbags deserve.

[Fireball]

very short press conferences and interviews ... probably only one after three of four years presidency

and of course no back to back reelection :lol

[lefty20]

This thread :rollin

[TimDunkem]

and of course no back to back reelection :lol
OH. :lmao

[Spur|n|Austin]

:lol :lol

[Russ]

I can just see Pop's campaign rally:

A shot of Derek Fisher on the Big Screen as Pop rails against 0.4 like a modern-day Hitler, the crowd chants . . .

"Lock him up, lock him up . . ."

[Russ]

very short press conferences and interviews ... probably only one after three of four years presidency

and of course no back to back reelection :lol

And since presidential elections are always on even years . . .

[Snaq O'Meal]

Pop's presidency?

Go watch The Hunger Games. Apart from the remarkable physical resemblance to Pop, President Snow is one guy who never got over himself.

[spurs10]

LOL. Also, he'd have Bonner in charge of handling nukes. Bonner would be fine in that role as long as he doesn't have to launch in April-June, when he'll most likely miss his WIDE OPEN targets. Bonner Commander of the Navy too....y'know subs!

[spurs10]

Reporter- "Why did we lose that battle?
:pop: "They killed more people than we did...next question."

[Splits]

He's clearly practicing: (http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/football/giants/spurs-coach-gregg-popovich-alternative-fact-joke-article-1.2953843)


“Kawhi (Leonard) is out with an injury that’s not really an injury, but hopefully it will heal quickly,” Popovich said, before jokingly adding, “That’s a figurative statement. It sounds like some of the things that are going on politically in the world. I apologize. I just gave an alternative fact (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/white-house-press-secretary-upends-tradition-briefing-article-1.2953595). I shouldn’t have done that. But it wasn’t a lie, so don’t try to pin that on me. I’m tired of you guys pinning that on me.”

[BillMc]

Reporter- "Why did we lose that battle?
:pop: "They killed more people than we did...next question."
:lol

[spurs10]

Every man woman and child would own a vineyard :bobo I'd vote for that law!

[-21-]

Great thread. :lmao

[OrEmuN]

Reporter- "Why did we lose that battle?
:pop: "They killed more people than we did...next question."

Or he could shrug and say

We missed some shots. They made theirs.

[spurs10]

Or he could shrug and say

[houston spurs fan]

We'd be France. Pop = Hollande....

[lefty]

"You got outcoached by Avery Joh..."
"Wrong"

"You left Tim Duncan on the bench in game 6 vs Mi.."
"Wrong"

[xellos88330]

Congress would get over themselves.

All of the USA would have to or be sent somewhere else until we do.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Get ready for universal free college and healthcare and hyperinflation as a consequence. The only jobs created would be for guys to build signs for gas stations that hold four digits instead of three.

And get ready for hyper-affirmative action, where women are required to be paid twice as much as men plus a year of paid maternity leave per child. Non-whites are also paid twice the salary of whites, while non-citizen immigrants will be required to be paid at least three times that.

[bigfan]

It would look a boatload better than the thin skinned, dangerous buffoon we have there today.

[wildbill2u]

Richard Jefferson would be the Secretary of Health and LBGT Services.

[Play Boban]

Political dissidents would be jailed and minorities would be oppressed and imprisoned like Stephen Jackson and Dedmon.

[jeebus]

Bonner in charge of everything, Popsuckers doing damage control on day one, country eventually imploding.

[Old School 44]

When asked about his staff members missing from cabinet meetings, Pop replied, "I told them to rest, they're old."

Reporter: Are you happy with your first week in office?
President Pop: Happy? Really...did you just ask me if I'm happy???

[GSH]

He would be the first person to name himself President.

China would hire Phil Jackson as their President, and we'd all be fucked.

Any cabinet members who performed especially well would get benched for a couple of weeks.

No one would know what the First Lady looks like.

Daily press briefings would be limited to three questions, and the answer to all of them would be, "Turnovers". Doris Burke would not be admitted.

The most important battles would be fought by the National Guard, because the Army, Navy, and Air Force would have the night off.

Craig Sager's face would be carved into Mt. Rushmore.

Would call the country "soft" and demand more "nasty".
