Mother in law lives in Catonsville. I can’t in good conscience suggest to my wife to drive west through the city cuz the effort to run I-70 downtown died off a long time ago.

Just insane video. Could have been timed so much worse.

The camera’s angle may tilt the perspective a bit, but it appears that the ship (piloted by a dedicated harbor pilot, btw) was turning when it struck the pillar.

Mutherfucking free throws. Extra annoying to lose that way. Go Coogs or Aggies. Whatever. Back when most of you were in diapers I saw NC State win a national championship over Univ of Houston, because Houston couldn’t make free throws. I was 12. Thurl Bailey! And Phi-Slamma-Jamma was fun to watch.

Oregon only played two bench players tonight.
What the ... must it feel like to be the other guys on the Oregon bench as they watch the Oregon players look like zombies in that 2nd OT?
ETA - a third bench guy got into the game tonight for two minutes in the second OT.

In the Oakland game, I thought the ball did hit the NC State guys pinkie, but I thought it happened before the ball left the Oakland guy's hand. Not one announcer mentioned that though. Yup.

Re: NCAA Basketball 23-24
You’d think the crowd would be behind an 11 seed in a second-round game. Omaha is like a home game for Illinois (as it also was for Iowa State). Sorry, I was talking NC State - Oakland. But yeah, I hope Illinois gets the crowd. I really want to see them get through. Oakland is more cinderella-y.

Similarly, I always thought that the Nuggets should just run-and-gun and make that their identity.

Re: NCAA Basketball 23-24
Interesting how a felled Gonzaga player clearly in pain doesn’t warrant a stoppage of play like when FAU’s Goldin flopped like he was on a broadway stage yesterday. Hell, that whistle stopped a Northwestern fast break.
Good to see the rules are applied consistently, whatever they are.

LOL at the refs not calling a foul there. And now the announcers are saying they can't call a foul.

But the intentional foul by FAU can't b...

So the lesson kids is to flop like a bitch to get the refs attention if they miss an errant arm that slaps your face.
I honestly didn't know they could review a blown call and apply a penalty in the past. I know about upgrading penalties, but not that.

Re: MLB Spring Training 2024
Sorry - I saw his right knee did go down, but it was after or around the tag (not the typical 75% of the bag taken up when the MI drops the knee while lowering his body to make the tag). The fact is Lindor was blocking the basepath as he positioned himself to field the ball. No longer allowed.
Re: MLB Spring Training 2024
Huh? What kind of rule is that? You can't block the bag if the ball is in the glove? So are they only supposed to do swipe tags now? And no more blocking the plate when the catcher has the ball? You can’t block the bag. Lindor’s knee went down, forcing the runner to the OF side. That’s out. SS/2B h...
