Lucas Fucking Raymond.

Ties it with a little over a minute to go in regulation after the Wings rally from 4-1, tacks on the gamer with under 25 seconds left in OT.

It feels like every game in which they are not shut out involves one team making a comeback of three goals, minimum.

STILL.

Great question. And I agree that increasing the size of the court - and possibly the lane - would help. It's kind of wild to think about the size of players today compared to when the court size was decided. Obviously, there are logistical issues with increasing the size of courts at some older gym...

So, the funny thing is the person who brought Norm McDonald to that basketball game I played in years ago in LA... Kato Kaelin. I am 100% serious. One of our regulars brought a guy a couple times, who turned around and brought Kato at some point. He became a regular and eventually started bringing N...

Nice, Giff.

Our oldest was stoked when she found out her teachers recommended her for the honors level classes for all the core courses her freshman year, including the English and Social Studies classes that cross over, including more debate and group projects.

I enjoy watching Edey play - total throwback. Hope he lands somewhere in the NBA where he can settle in at 20 minutes a game off the bench and have a long long career. Why didn’t Painter go to the portal to sign a big to play 15 minutes a game? They ran Edey like a freakin mule this year. I get tha...

It seems like Calipari's fit at Kentucky has always been at least a little bit off. Once he said that the goal was to prepare his players for their NBA futures, it seemed like there was no coming back and smoothing over any bumps.

Our house is now allegedly outside of the area of totality (original projections had us getting around one minute, 15 seconds). 67% sky cover projected at that time, anyway.

I think you would have to go with AirBnB/VRBO, as most hotels cannot guarantee connecting or adjoining rooms, which it sounds like you would want for this group. If you can, reach out to the "managers" of the houses you find prior to officially booking and mention the special circumstances...

I just caught the last quarter in the sportsbook attached to the arena. It looked like the same thing as last year - a machine with 5 well-oiled parts vs. 1 superstar. Of course, I’ve been drinking without eating much, so grain of salt and all that. Nope, this is accurate. Iowa got off to a quick s...

Thursday in a Tigers-Mets game, Hernandez called a strike on Torkelson, who was apparently being hit on the hand (replays made it look like the ball missed him and Torkelson was trying to get on base - this clip shows no change in flight of the ball). Hernandez called a strike without gesturing that...

And Bueckers' responsibility on the play includes waiting for the pick to be set to help avoid getting a whistle.

Not trying to pick on her, just making the point that the cutter/ballhandler has a responsibility avoiding illegal screens, too.

I wouldn't. Their recent series of ads was about the new iPhone, so unless there was a new phone from a different manufacturer coming out, there isn't much for a cell phone provider to advertise.

Didn't realize everyone was watching movies with their daughters yesterday when we had a matinee showing of "Say Anything", which doesn't have a dedicated Swamp movie thread (I popped out a couple times to check email, but nothing was going on). Talked with her for about 10 minutes this mo...

They closed schools for the day here because there is supposed to be just over one minute of full eclipse here that will coincide with our local elementary school releasing kids for buses and pick-up. Free glasses for our youngest, though (not sure about the middle school).

"Diggstown" is enjoyable.

The fundamental problem is that for-profit corporations exist to make profits for their shareholders. Their managers have a fiduciary duty to do so. Historically, hasn’t the (supposedly) ideologically neutral media been the exception rather than the rule? Yes, for privately owned media. The end of ...

I was worried no one would offer a scholarship, so I was almost more relieved than anything else. They brought him in with three different guys on the roster who kicked last year, so I expect he'll win the job. I hope Akron improves. I would like for him to play in more winning games over his four a...
