He should provide quality depth for the USL team. 👏

Cerundolo could have won this match already if he had a higher IQ. He’s not a fast learner.

I do not like short QBs for an offense that designs plays for TEs and others running routes over the middle.

Novak acting like Neymar (Jr.). He won the first set handily and now he’s already had a trainer come out in the second set. Novak slaps the ball so much due to being on the baseline or a step inside of it so much and yet opponents rarely can figure out how to attack that. It is annoying for the hater in me.

Thank you for clarifying what Lacey has much more accuracy with. 👍 💪

I think that we have had Lacey committed for a year and that is why Sark is sticking to him. Russell wasn’t polished enough a year ago (in my imagination) to receive an offer, but if the offers were going out now then I think that Russell would get the nod due to his being a Duncanville QB, which is good for the pipeline and is good for the recruitment of Dakorien Moore.

When I worked at the Texas State Capitol, I only made $3.35/hr and I hadn’t been convicted of anything.

Just your typical play-by-play of an Alabama kid scoring in Italy.🇮🇹 This is nothing if not routine. Busio was likely fluent when he touched down in in Venice, but I’d like to think that Tanner is picking up some Italian by now. If he didn’t have an American girlfriend that he has now married, then I would say that he is fluent now from dating Italian girls, but sadly… he’s an idiot.

Sure she looks pregnant in some of her photos, but I respect her fashion decisions. 😁

Easy catch if they are playing her deep, but barely a dinger because they weren’t.

Florida’s last batter… Interesting. 🤔

Sorry that you missed Venezia’s 1:30pm game today due to Premature Evacuation. il sigh

Tanner Tasman & Gianluca Busio are headed back up to Serie A! Busio had a Yunas Musah-esque dribble up field, but unlike Musah, Busio made a nice pass at the end of his run to put his teammate in position to take a good shot and that was the game’s only goal. I think that one, or both of them was selected for the Olympic roster. I know that Diego Luna was left off of it and that sucks.

The fat lady from The Tennis Podcast loves to whine about women’s matches not being chosen for the stand alone night match at Roland Garros that started about a year or two ago. How can you expect to sell expensive tickets for a single night match when the match could go 40 minutes as easily as it could go 2 hours? And these are the same whiners who think that a “Best 2 out of 3 Bracket” should receive the same prize money as a “Best 3 out of 5 Bracket”, which is insane, but actually exists at all 4 grand slams. The longest women’s match today took 95 minutes.

Gio got engaged.. …from the looks of her, he’s marrying his sister, or maybe first cousin.

Novak paced himself from the first game. He takes as much time as possible with the serve clock and even more on 2nd serves. He is the most deliberate player on tour and it drives me nuts, but it is very smart.

Love it when an announcer says: ”That’s his first strike out of the night.” …when there has only been one batter in the entire game, and that guy strikes out. Is there an IQ limit for the secondary announcer spot?

No Rio Grand/Border jokes. 🏊 🏊‍♀️ This is a legitimate question.

1) Don’t get a larger vehicle than you need. From staying in your lane while driving from the wrong side of the car to finding parking can be a bitch. 2) Get an automatic if you can. 3) Make sure that you have cell service in Europe. Driving without it (these days) is not fun. 4) WATCH YOUR FUCKING SPEED!! My brother lived in Nottingham a few decades ago while going to grad school, so he rented a car to see England. He said that there are cameras on all of the highways that photograph you speeding and then send you a ticket. No talking to a cop, no saying “I didnt see the speed posted.”, just a ticket that the rental company will apply to your credit card, I believe. 5) SIXT usually has BMWs and are moderately priced (used them pre-COVID in Spain, May 2019.), but that may have changed. 6) Check your CC to make sure that they insure your rental before renting. I know that a Citibank CC of mine stopped covering rentals about 5 years ago because “They were responding to what their customers wanted.” 🙄 7) Check to see if your USA auto insurance covers foreign rentals. You may need to use one for the deductible and the other for coverage in case of an accident. That’s all I have for now. Minor Brag: I was counting the countries that I have driven in recently and it was: USA 🇺🇸, Spain 🇪🇸, France 🇫🇷, Ireland 🇮🇪, Northern Ireland 🇬🇧, Argentina 🇦🇷, Uruguay 🇺🇾, Brazil 🇧🇷, El Salvador 🇸🇻, Costa Rica 🇨🇷, and probably Mexico* 🇲🇽. *I can’t recall if I drove a bit on a surf trip 20+ years ago, but I’m fairly sure that I did. Both sides of the road, 3 continents, and both sides of the equator. 🌎🚗

Let them bond this weekend and then dump a bank load of [suggestions for] NIL [possibilities] all over the boaff of ‘em before they leave their official visits in Austin. I think that LSU & Bo can only do so much. At least that’s what I’ve been led to believe and I’m believing it because I want it to be true.

Her father’s return has corresponded with her rise from Bolivia back into the Top 50.

I love the looks that the Purple Demon 😈 in the Longhorn Jersey is getting. Aggies hate colored demons and people Would never get a hotel room IN College Station. I would not recommend it to anyone else, either.

Kenin has been making her way back from her appendicitis and then her team had her ditch her father as a coach and she dropped to 150-250 in the world. She’s now solidly in the Top 50 and has been playing well. But Tauson on her day can hit with Rybakina & Sabalenka and absolutely blow Iga off the court. Tauson is a 6 foot Dane who got 74% of her 1st serves in. Like Ostapenko, if you catch her on a heater, you’re fucked. She just rarely is on a heater and/or can sustain it for a full match. Kenin got 76% of her first serves in and she’s a sneaky good server. Tauson must have been crushing it today. *NOTE: Kenin did have 8 double faults, but that was likely because Tauson was absolutely tee-ing off on her 2nd serves.

Also, other than one hiccup of a tie-breaker, Tsitsipas has quietly been destroying his competition.
