So today kicks off the World Box Lacrosse Championships up in Utica. If you have ESPN+ worth giving it a look. Tonight's game is basically #2 Haudenosaunee v. #3 USA at 8pm. and on the 22nd you get a #1 v. #2 matchup. USA has a full roster of pros (but one of the best players broker a collarbone in ...

Ended up with a 7 day trial of Starz because my son wanted to watch something. So watched John Wick 4. I mean I get that it is not My Dinner with Andre, but even for what it is it was not that good. Too often my untrained eye could see the bad guys thinking about the movement they were supposed to m...

How far off is this from some of the folks who have gotten college coaching jobs with no experience.

Biff Poggi (Former Hedge Funder or similar, Gilman, St. Francis, Michicgan, to head coach of Charlotte)
Penny Hardaway
Wojo going from journalist to coach.
Mourinho was a gym teacher

I think you could get away with a lot in soccer, if you stick to the framework in the hypothetical. In other words, if I got Freaky Friday'd into the actual body of a professional manager, I know enough about formation and tactics that it would take a bit of time to get found out. And agreed with b...

Other question...is there a sport where you think the average schmo could survive for a longer period of time without being figured out?

The weirdness of the hypothetical is allowing for it to be the head coach. If that person is not doubling up as the OC/DC, then, yeah... I just let the game happen and if I need to make a decision about going for it on 4th or punting or kicking a FG, I have Grad Asst next to me who is really good a...

I’d say one tops, and that’s the FCS game that opens the season. Any other games we’d crap our pants at the first sign of trouble. These other coaches, and I’m including the FCS coaches, are steeped in this their whole lives. The only game we would win is the one with the massive talent disparity, ...

Got this as an email from former swamper louthegiantrat OK, imagine this... It's the day before the first game of the college football season. In some sort of Freaky Friday-esque supernatural thing, you find that you have swapped bodies with an SEC head football coach. So now, your brain is in contr...

Snack Shack, Amazon prime original. A classic coming of ages, summer misfit movie. Perfect nonsense straight to prime movie with decent no-name actors (except a guy from Billions). Falls into the Amazon may have used AI to write script but don't feel bad for watching it.

Last week I managed to take a couple of hikes in this park: https://twitter.com/AP/status/1831084780336632064 No mountain lions. But I did come back to my car to find my window smashed in and my backpack (with laptop) stolen. Probably that 5-year-old. Good thing they euthanized the 5-year-old
