  1. I will say it here and again, I am sure, elsewhere. THE TRANSFER PORTAL IS THE DEMISE OF THE “MADNESS” OF MARCH. We have 4 #1s in the Final Four. The #1s had to beat 3 #2s and a #3 to advance. All of the top teams in Boys AND Girls basketball are littered with transfers. I think that we are witnessing the end of the Madness and don’t care because we are basically a “Have”. But it was the “Have Nots” that made the tournament crazy and fun. That’s pretty much over.
  2. Reading this in the middle of the night, I thought that you were referring to a medical center shown during a “Here at UCLA, we have facilities that…” commercial and one of the locations was a medical center used in “One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest”. Then I reread it and realized that you were talking about CHIEF.
  3. He looks like a Center Back in soccer ⚽️ or maybe the manager for a high school basketball team 🏀. Nice guy, good student, and possibly plays the cello in his high school orchestra. (Of course he is 1st chair cello.)
  4. Novak looked like he was melting out there on the court. He has major issues with cramping early in his career and then became one of the slowest and most deliberate players the sport has ever seen as the years went on. (Novak & Rafa were why the serve clock was invented.) I checked the temperature… …not so bad. Then my brother asked me about the humidity. Novak was always going to lose this match after losing the first set tiebreaker. No way could he go 3 sets and win against someone half his age.
  5. I love the ad at the bottom which is a perfect button on the thread titles. And then just a short, but delicious thread.
  6. If the 9 year-old is a boy and wins, you had better have “The Talk” before you hand over the money, because otherwise that kid is going to immediately spend it all on Ho’s & Blow. 🥸
  7. I will be in Wales in late June and then am perhaps going to roam around Britain for a bit, so I may pass through Wrexham. I won’t have a car, and won’t be close, but it would be fun to seen some of the filming locations and cast of The Wrexham Show.
  8. Talking about Hauch (Florida) hitting 3s late in the game: Announcer #1: “He’s made more money this week than Steve Jobs!” Announcer #2: “Well, we know that.”
  9. When Paige left the game with 3 minutes remaining, second half scoring looked like this: Oklahoma 15 points P Bueckers 29 points
  10. Paige Bueckers is going full on Olympics Steph Curry in the 4th quarter.
  11. For those asking: Did Craig James kill 5 hookers while at SMU? https://deadspin.com/spokeswoman-for-craig-james-denies-he-killed-five-hooke-5908993/

  13. I’m fairly certain that We used to dance to this song at middle school dances. I feel like freshman year I remember some friends mentioning that they had seen The Judys at that concert venue the year before and I remembered “Oh yeah, they sing ‘Guyana Punch’.” Think I knew the basics of the story, but mainly I remembered it as a soft slow song where everyone ducked low and waited for the explosion of energy to jump up and bounce around, mirroring the energy of that segment of the song. It was a great middle school dance song.
  14. Like Dodgers Stadium!
  15. Coat that mole for her. Taylor does seem to underwhelm more often than not.
  16. “AGGIES” + LSU colors = 🤷‍♂️
  17. Napoleon

    La Liga 24-25

  18. Get Tracy Wolfson a damned box to stand on! My goodness, she looked like she was interviewing someone while sitting in a wheelchair. 🦽
  19. Got into Beard’s “Red Bull”?
  20. White guy from Ole Miss (1) Traveled (2) Dribbled once (3) Traveled again… Then shot the ball and made it and the announcers loved it… and the red did not call it. Traveling has become completely arbitrary. It is like OL holding. Whenever the refs want to affect the game, they can either call it or not, but the actual rules don’t matter anymore
  21. Refs doing their part to ensure that South Carolina advances, from no call on SC travel for a layup, a travel by an SC girl who went to the floor being called as a 5th foul on a Maryland post player, to a questionable charge on a Maryland girl as the SC girl may not have even had one foot down and she was sliding to stay in front of the Maryland girl, to a Maryland travel as a stationary player was starting to dribble to make her move. That’s a player fouling out and about a 6 point swing right there.
  22. #sweatyasiangirlsexchange
  23. Is this like Uber Black? I ask, because I will be passing through London a bit this summer, but I am most certainly NOT a “discerning” traveler. (Even though I would like to be.)
