Re: Umbras and Penumbras - The Sun is Going Away

The eclipse in April is gifting our children with a day off school, as we should have one minute and 18 seconds of full eclipse during the middle of what is normally busing kids home.

I expect 100% cloud coverage during the eclipse.

Re: NBA Regular Season 2023-24 f./ NBA In-Season Tournament 2023-24

Players like Wembanyama and Jokic are kind of an end result (not an actual end, obviously) of how the European style of skill development without regard for size helps them become dominant forces. The focus on "little man" skills transforms bigger players into unicorns.

Yeah, they got scammed, which sucks, but yeah, there's some complicity involved. I don't want to get into too many details but it involved a fake cashiers check.

Two quarterbacks before McNabb at Syracuse, Marvin Graves was the starter. The biggest game of his career, he was vomiting on the field while trying to lead a comeback against a top-ranked 10-0 Miami team (SU was 9-1 and #5) in his last home game.

Three yards short.
