Amazing stuff. Love that the Super Bowl went down to the last question. Tough last question to score on though.

Re: Sciatica! Sciatica!
do you have a foam roller yes have you been using it? not suggesting it'll be a cure all by any means, but some serious foam rolling can make a world of difference, especially if you can figure out the area where it's triggering What exactly am I supposed to be rolling? This isn't a muscular issue.

Agree with this. Counterpoint. Does the USA (or the world) have the ability to ever produce Shaq again? I refuse to believe there is no place on an NBA Finals team for diesel.

I think forfeiting a game is too severe. And it would complicate rankings, records, etc. A large fine for the home team ought to do it. Arenas already have a ton of ushers and security. They can use them better and/or hire more to handle the security. Some arenas already handle this properly. I know...

I finally got around to watching The Wire. One episode to go in S1. It's as good as advertised. I didn't recognize young Wallace as Michael B Jordan until way late in the season. I guess I hadn't thought about how old the show is. (Another thing for the feeling old thread, I suppose)

To play devil's advocate here, the study of history, particularly in a high school US History class, by necessity has to skip or elide a lot of events.

Re: Getting the spins
I typically think of an artist I want to listen to and then go through their albums in sequence.
If I need a longer, more random playlist, I create a radio station based off an artist. I have a few of those set to download on my phone so I always have music if I'm offline.

One of the all-time great characters in college basketball. Hell, in American sports overall. While he didn't always run the most ethical of programs (e.g. Herman Veal and the Bias fallout), he was a very good coach and he brought an excitement and humor that the ACC has lacked since he left.
