The Swamp

It's officially been over a year since Howard has posted.

"A Night At The Garden" Only 7 minutes long but it will make your blood chill and then boil. (Nominated for an Academy Award for documentary short) https://anightatthegarden.com/ Incredible. I didn't really know what I was watching. It was only after, reading the website, that I realized that it wa...

Yeah, it's supposed to be two steps - i.e. each foot hitting the floor one more time - after your last dribble. The NBA has gone soft on what they call "the gather step," allowing essentially 3 steps because the first one doesn't really count while the player is "gathering" the ball. To me, that's m...

Louisville's worst collapse since ...

That Louisville collapse was stunning.

Just got bounced. I hadn't had a playable hand in a few weeks and was leaking money. FInally, I got AKs the other day and went all in pre-flop. The one caller was the one guy at the table with fewer chips ... and he had AA and beat me. The very next hand, I got KQs so went all in again. This time I ...

Just stunning how Chelsea has crumbled in the past few weeks. I'm not at all a fan of constantly firing managers and bringing in new systems - I think that's a big part of why this team has become so dysfunctional. But, man. A team with that level of talent simply can't play like that. Sarri needs t...

It turns out that when the most talented team in the country shoots 62% from three, you lose. It could have been worse.

You guys convinced me! Edit: no you didn’t. They suck. They tried to go all hipster and give you old Floyd. Anyway, Pink Floyd isn't really an individual songs band. They have some great songs, but really their stuff works much better in context of the albums. If you haven't listened to Animals, Da...

Okay not fl or Ohio..but outstanding https://thesiouxfallsheadliner.com/2019/01/30/local-man-arrested-after-cosplaying-mr-freeze-and-yelling-cold-weather-puns-at-people/?fbclid=IwAR2lwRmnF-Axg0YqcsFHrctLQdwrwEmhnTZiWtU1N6S-YCmRzOjQgWpyXwM Did he follow each pun with a literal explanation of the pun...

Good lacrosse schools (historically). Congrats!

That's a rare Pink Floyd cover that's actually good. I know this is an incredibly subjective opinion but I think Gilmour is the greatest rock guitarist ever and most attempts to duplicate his guitar playing fall so far short of the original. I'm a huge Gilmour fan as well. Nobody ever conveyed more...

Fucking hell. I've never heard of this band, but YouTube recommended this video. Make sure you stay for the guitar solo. It keeps getting better and better.

47-24 . Ranked teams at that. Wow! I watched part of the first half of that game. It was still 5-2 halfway through the first half when I realized Duke-St. Johns was on another channel. When I saw the halftime score of 20-14, I was stunned. I never would have guessed that State would actually do WOR...

Funny to just now see that skit, I must have missed it when it first got posted. I saw the other day that Weezer put out a new album, so I fired it up on Spotify. After the second song, I realized it was all covers, so I went back to check their full discography. I was shocked at how many albums the...

Yeah, it all depends on the goal of the chart. If each product needs to be tracked separately, then a grouped bar chart is probably best. If it's total revenue that's most important, but you still want to see the contribution of each product, then a stacked bar chart is better.

You look at Vandy’s gym and you can just tell that’s a place with piss troughs in the men’s room. Maybe the ladies’ room too. Pretty funny, considering what a wealthy school it is. Carrier Dome is piss troughs with stainless steel communal sinks in the middle of the room that can easily be confused...

That was hilarious.

That's funny. I won't show my son though.

I don't think any of the three sides were innocent there. And in hindsight, nobody did anything that bad either.
I think you need to ask yourself why each of those three sides were there before you just decide to split the blame in three and call it a lesson.

This makes no sense.

Black Israelites: Bad MAGA teens: Bad Native Americans: Not bad There are derees of badness and I’m sure some of the native Americans are actually bad but I really don’t think assessing the actors in this incident is all that hard. Defining the actors doesn't always explain the actions. And of the ...

Rashomon in nearly real time. I've watched a number of the different videos (not that that 100 minute one) and ... really, you can see what you want to see. I think the participants had very different views of what was going on at the time, and so do all of us, the observers, watching the videos lat...

There's plenty of room to admit that the original story - that these kids swarmed the existing Native American protest and chanted "build the wall" - wasn't correct while STILL thinking what the kids did actually do was wrong and they are a bunch of assholes. From what I've seen of the longer video ...

In their mind, the ad is promoting nancy boys who are afraid to stand up for themselves and be tough and BE A MAN!

God, UVA was on fire in the first half against VT tonight. First ever top-ten matchup between the two and UVA celebrated by going 10-14 on threes in the first half to lead by 22. UVA has had a 20+ point lead in all four ACC games so far this year. (Did I just jinx them to blow this game in the 2nd h...

What the hell is it about hockey that brings that out? I've never seen anything like the behavior listed in that story in any other sport. The closest example I can think of is my one exposure to junior hockey about 25 years ago. My roommate and I took his 12-year-old (or maybe a bit younger) nephew...

Wow, didn't realize I'd started a thing. Shoulda guessed, given the topic. I should clarify that with In-N-Out's crazy reputation, I think "criminally overrated" left plenty of room for it to still be good. And I think it is. It's just not any better than most of the other good burger chains you guy...

I got AA tonight. I reraised preflop. Another dude raised me, so I went all in. He called.

And he had AA too! I don't think I've ever seen that before. It was like flipping a coin and having it land on the edge.

Well, obviously the NCAA likes the rule keeping their players at school, but they'd have no recourse if the NFL changed their mind. I'm not really sure what leverage the NCAA has to make the NFL conform to their wants. The rule was put in place by the NFL to protect itself from itself (just like the...

Deadspin is wrong and its just a coincidence that the only two major professional sports with an age limit are the two that generate insane amateur revenue.

Those rules are put in place by the pro leagues, not the NCAA.

I doubled up this morning. Got lucky. Had pocket tens, but missed the flop. Another guy went all in, but hadn't really bet like he had much before that. We were both relatively short stacked, so I thought there was a good chance he was bluffing to steal the smallish pot. I also figured I had to take...

I'm rooting for them to qualify for Champions League, since yesterday. How is it going? They played like crap in a tie against Southampton yesterday. Still in fourth, 3 points up on Arsenal and 6 on Man U. 3 and 4 back of 2nd and third. It's a tight race this year, Liverpool excluded. Chelsea has a...

Am I the only Chelsea fan on this board? Obviously, I'm over the moon about the signing, but like others, I'm nervous about it as well. Sarri's system allows for a lot of fun offensive play and movement that fits Pulisic very well, but Chelsea does currently have 3 established players at winger (Haz...

I survived. The other guy folded. I got KK twice in four hands and won a total of about 5k. I suck.

Jam, suckers

OK, so the Tweets were deleted. What happened?

I just deleted a bunch of accounts and changed our registration questions.

Got my first good hand of the tournament a few hands ago, KK. And then nobody would play with me, so I won very little. Two hands later, I overplayed a QJ and lost half of my stack to QA.

My son heard back from his first choice, Swarthmore, Friday night. He got in. He's really excited not only about getting in, but now he doesn't have to do any more applications!

(no scholarships, though)
