  1. Tragic death in a housefire. A terrific songwriter, quirky, kind of in a Cyndi Lauper meets Shawn Colvin mold. Her hit "I Kissed A Girl" predated Katy Perry's crappy song by over a decade.
  2. This is good experience for him.
  3. We look like we're hung over from the plane ride. Tangentially, dumb jock announcers have no idea what "the law of averages" means.
  4. F'n meteorologists.
  5. and yet he's doing a lot better than Ruger.
  6. My office is right behind KEYE. I enjoy the random encounter with Chikage.
  7. Run rule to save a few bullpen pitches?
  8. Jesus Christ, are we drunk?
  9. Hey Ruger, how about you NOT try the pickoff when you are struggling with control?
  10. Did that 'nader do any damage?
  11. Alright, next? Maybe let him get out of the inning I guess.
  12. Shut up hog fans, your guy has gotten that pitch multiple times.
  13. Our guys keep biting on that changeup.
  14. Interesting strike zone.
  15. So, are these transfers typically driven only by NIL? I mean, St. John's had a great year (save a 2nd round NCAA upset), and Rick Pitino is a legend. So, they couldn't top our offer?
  16. I'm thinking a nice chicken cordon bleu, although I prefer prosciuotto to ham. Regardless, I get the chicken and the pig.
  17. Pretty common, at least later on:
  18. Yeah, the rules are out of date. It's like the bye rule in the CFP round of 12.
  19. I'm not very dialed in, but I know these kids. My daughter used to be their drummer, and now their new drummer is her roommate (among others). Kinda psych-ey grunge-y rock, there's some songwriting talent there. I really like the saturated 'verbed out sound.
  20. Looking at that bracket, of the top 8 national seeds the 2 seeds are pretty similar in terms of RPI. Vandy (#8 national seed) probably has the easiest 2 seed in Georgia Tech (35 RPI), but it's not like GT is far off the mark of the others. I don't know if RPI is so predictive as to allow that level of parsing, anyway.
  21. Quinn always came across as aloof, both on the field and with the media. The only time I recall being surprised at him was the Gruden piece. Whatever you think of Gruden or those interviews, Quinn was a completely different guy -- relaxed, comfortable in his skin, funny. I don't know why we didn't see that guy more, but maybe it's just the difference between one on one and dealing with groups. (I'm no psychologist, I won't diagnose.)
  22. That seems a bit of a reach. There are plenty of hyped up QBs who succeed in the NFL. Even so, Arch doesn't seem like the Baker Mayfield type, but even Baker found his landing spot.
