This is what my dad and stepmom do. They probably go on 3 a year and at least 1 is free (a 3-5 day one). They bank their shit from the long transatlantic ones to get the free short Caribbean ones

NCAA committee had us 27th. NET had us 30th. 7 wasn't extreme.

I want to look ahead a little to Alabama and FSU Alabama - 8 seed - 23-9 overall (10-6 SEC) They do have a win over Louisville back in November 78-73 (neutral site) Lost by 10 to Gonzaga 78-68 (neutral site) Lost by 6 to Syracuse 79-73 on the road SEC losses: By 10 to Ole Miss at home By 18 to Arkansas at home (woof, that's bad) By 20 to LSU at home By 13 to Auburn on the road By 19 to LSU on the road By 28 to SC on the road By 22 to Tenn in the SEC tournament (one and done) Lost a double digit scorer 5'8 G Jessica Timmons (11.2 ppg, 4.5 rpg, 2.3 apg, 1.0 spg) to a knee injury sustained in the SECT Average 73.5 ppg, give up 61.8 ppg 35% 3PFG% as a team 70.9 FT% as a team Only win the rebound margin by 3.0 - that is going to be difficult for them based on how we rebound Usually play Essence Cody the most in the post - 6'4 freshman, and she gets spelled by 6'4 JeAnna Cunningham (SR) and 6'3 Meg Newman (SO) Two good 3 point shooters - Nye (42.6%) and Barker (36%) Florida State - 9 seed - 23-10 (12-6 ACC) 1 point win over Tenn in November 82-81 at home 12 point loss to Stanford 100-88 in Nevada 13 point loss to Arkansas at home (woof) 17 point loss to UCLA in Connecticut ACC losses: 8 point OT loss to NC State on the road 6 point loss to Syracuse on the road 4 point loss to UVA at home (woof, that is bad) 42 loss to Duke on the road 4 point 2OT loss to ND at home 15 point loss to Louisville on the road 26 point loss to NC State in the ACCT semifinals 78.7 ppg scored, but allow 71.2 ppg 31.3 3PFG% as a team 77.1 FT% as a team They actually lose the rebound margin by -3.0 They are small - Makayla Timson at 6'2 is their main post player They really rely hard on 5'8 G Ta'Niya Latson, who averages 21.3 ppg Mariah O'Gordon is their 3 point shooter - 38.5%. She's also 5'4 I'm probably slightly more worried about Alabama, because FSU's lack of size would be a big problem against Texas. They don't rebound well and don't have big bodies to throw at Jones/Faye/Gaston. But also Alabama is coached by former Tech coach Kristy Curry, so eh

I wish I had time to do this one again this past trip; did it in August and it was so good. Perhaps when I go back in the summer And yes. Jesus Christ, I swear every Uber took 8-15 minutes to pick is up and every trip was 30-45 minutes. We took an Uber from Chapulatpec Castle to Zocalo (4 miles) and I got a solid 20 minute nap in traffic. And we still had 20 more minutes before we got there.

I don't worry about Vic in the first round at all. We are really good at home (2 losses to Baylor and OU) and I feel like every year, we get the "oh man this mid-major team is playing great ball and Texas should watch out" 2021 - beat Bradley by 19 2022 - beat Fairfield by 22 2023 - beat ECU by 39 This 2024 team is better than those other team's, by a lot. Even without Rori. Even that flawed 2023 team destroyed ECU.

Malarkey Jr can go

He tells them the truth they want to hear

Only if he suits up in the final 30 seconds of the game

Well that first battle was a surprise outcome

Interesting article: https://www.newyorker.com/news/our-columnists/what-do-the-polls-really-mean-for-joe-biden March polls are notoriously wrong (average 8 points off the final result) Response rates are extremely low and not representative of the electorate

I posted that. They are cutting back his rallies to basically just campaign out of Florida because he broke broke. He's begging the 7 figure donors to up their checks to 8 figures now. @atomheartbevo keeps mentioning too that the venues he books are smaller than his 2016/2020 venues and less attended. Biden had a $53m fundraising month and has $155 million COH. Oh and he raised 20% of his February total just after the State of the Union ($10m in the 24 hours after that), so March will likely be an even bigger amount.

They don't have control of the swing states, they don't have control of the DOJ, they don't have control of the military or national guard. They had a 6-3 majority on the Supreme Court in 2020 and still couldn't get the election overturned. -
From ESPN: Women's March Madness bracket winners, losers, next steps Texas Longhorns The Big 12 tournament champion earned its first No. 1 seed since 2004. The Longhorns, like fellow No. 1 seed Iowa, didn't win their conference regular-season title but did win the league tournament. After losing star guard Rori Harmon for the season in late December to a knee injury, Texas had to navigate Big 12 play without her. They lost to Baylor, Kansas State and regular-season champ Oklahoma twice. In the Big 12 tournament, the Longhorns beat Kansas, K-State and Iowa State, with freshman Madison Booker winning MVP honors. Texas has made the Elite Eight twice since Vic Schaefer took over as coach in 2020-21. He said after the Big 12 final that he thought the Longhorns had proven they deserved a No. 1 seed. The committee agreed. "When you win a championship in a league, you play the schedule these kids have played, I don't know what else we could do," Schaefer said. "I feel really confident in this team. They've done nothing but show me that they can do it. ESPN mentions that Texas and USC both had long streaks of not being a 1 seed (2004 for Texas, 1986 for USC) snapped this season, so it feels right that Stanford, who has been a #1 seed for 3 straight seasons, got knocked down to a #2 in favor of 2 conference tournament champs.
