Re: NCAA Basketball 23-24

College POY x2 is always going to get more attention than a kid playing most of his time in Australia. And there is never any shine put on the G-League games. Those that follow along with the top prospects know. Those that don't, don't care. They would rather hear about the tall Canadian kid that on...

Re: NCAA Basketball 23-24

I don't think anyone ever had Edey ahead of Sarr. Sarr should go first overall. 7'0", very fluid in his movements, has a decent/reliable outside shot, and great defense. Unless the Spurs get the first pick, anyone else should be picking this kid first.

I didn't watch the game, but I watched plenty of Purdue during the season. They really need a couple of more athletes like Ivey and Edwards were in the past.

Re: Umbras and Penumbras - The Sun is Going Away

Cloudless day here in northern Indiana. Outside looked like I was wearing sunglasses that weren't super dark, but enough to block out the glare. Temperature seemed to drop about 5 degrees and the wind picked up a bit. Other than that, typical April Monday afternoon.
