    This is the thing right? Maybe the genius ambition of the actual Tesla but then the labor ethics of Henry Ford.
    Transformative person opportunity partly wasted, but let's see how he treats Texans.

    Yes and no. Some skits like "Basketball With Prince", "When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong" , "The Black White Supremist", the Charlie Murphy True Holllywood Stories and the Wayne Brady skits could still be done today. One of his best skits was the one where he examined what it would be like if white collar criminals got the same type of justice system that drug dealers got and vice versa. His best work was always when he was taking a satirical look at society and that's an approach that still works even today. However somewhere along the line he started channeling Louis CK and stopped being funny in an attempt to somehow become edgy. Now what would be problematic is his constant use of the N-word, his Tyrone character and his homophobic jokes.

    Normally I disagree with you but after seeing Twitter go after SNL Gen Z hospital for being racist against blacks ('Saturday Night Live' faces mounting criticism for AAVE 'appropriation' in 'Gen Z Hospital' skit), I recognize I agree with you on this.

    This TikToker hits it on the head:

    The first I saw chappelle was in Houston , he made incredibly socially incorrect jokes that would make the tiktok kids put glue on their hair

    so awesome

    i also noticed that former Rockets coach Don Chaney was there .
    Coach of the year! Newbs don’t know who he is
    But we do

    No opinion either way, but the conceit did remind me of Jamie Kennedy's movie characters from 15 - 20 years ago, I think they even had him talk that way in Boiler Room, but stuck Nicky Katt with the hard-R.

    I put him in the same file as John Lucas's rehab clinic commercials. I believe Olajuwon was out the whole season after Bill Cartwright's attempted murder, then the bottom fell out and Tomjanovich swooped in in time to draft Robert Horry. I don't even remember him replacing Daley in Detroit, but he bottomed out during that post-Riley run in New York that almost destroyed Nelson, Brown and Wilken's legacies.

    I watched a few minutes of SNL, it was painful to watch Elon try to be funny

    Don Chaney did win coach of the year for that .
    Leading the Rockets to the playoffs with Dream hurt most of the year .
    Nobody could stop Kenny Smith and OT on the pick and roll

    that was the real Kenny smith that real fans remember
