Take it from experience: A swim meet is 10X more boring than a track meet.

I really enjoyed How I Met Your Mother and think it’s way too low. I also LOVED Newsradio- such an underrated show. They’ve got an obscure show on that list that lasted one season. If that’s the case, they should put Men Behaving Badly on there too. I personally don’t think Phineas and Ferb and Sponge Bob belong on this list.

The kids killed the show. Especially Lilly and Manny.

I’m watching YTTV on firestick right now

You should check out a restaurant in Lahaina called “Down the Hatch”. Make these great lobster grilled cheese sandwiches and they’re relatively inexpensive.

Not gonna lie- the red eye flight home is going to be a bitch if you’re flying directly back to Texas with kids that young. Chances are they won’t sleep on the flight home and they’ll ask you questions and for snacks so you can’t sleep. All that being said- Hawaii is still worth it.

The same rant could be said to sports figures as well. Especially the part about wanting entertainment (or sports) to escape the drudgery of our daily lives, especially over the last year. We don’t need constant politics/rhetoric/condescension thrust upon us when all we want to do is get lost in a movie or game and not think about how shitty the world is for a few hours.

I’ve got a YTTV question: is there a way to do channel return without scrolling through the guide? I’m trying to flip back and forth between volleyball game and mavs game but it’s cumbersome going through the guide.

This thread has has morphed into a commentary on media in today’s climate in general with a significant focus on social media, not another cop killing an innocent African American. On the one hand, it’s comforting to see that virtually everyone is in agreement that the police officer was right in this case. The biggest problem to come out of this case was irresponsible reporting and reaction to this situation before all the facts came to light. There are a lot of fresh wounds in the wake of the Chauvin-Floyd murder and the Kenosha shooting. The last thing we need are uninformed people or people with ulterior motives taking to Twitter to stoke more racial tension. The Columbus situation did not warrant riots or protests. Ohio State didn’t need to shut down. Lebron James was the most visible critic to speak out of ignorance but there were too many others who did the same. It’s going to be a lot harder to heal as a nation and continue to make strides in eliminating racism when there are a lot of people who have a personal interest in keeping our country divided (on both sides) with a platform on Twitter. This case is more about the evils of social media than racism.

AC sucks. Too soft spoken. I still like KJ and the producer best.

I think Chris Evans is a terrible actor in everything he’s done (including Knives Out). I love the Deadpool movies but Ryan Reynolds plays the same smart ass in everything. He makes entertaining movies- just not a lot of range.

I enjoyed the movie. I’m shocked that no one has any issues with a little bit of scotch (or whatever it was in the flask) short circuiting the security system. So many problems with the movie but my 10 yo loved it so it’s all good.

RJ is going to be successful at whatever he decides to do with his life. The kid seems to have his shit together, unselfish and hard worker.

Don’t think anyone ever used to piss on his coaching inadequacy, they just thought he was a shitty human being

Nothing pisses me off more than going to a crowded gas station and assholes leave their car parked at the pump and go in and shop, get lunch etc for 10-15 mins. Move your fucking car so other people can get gas.

I have a feeling that Riley isn’t getting the responses to that tweet that he thought he was gonna get.

That shit looks bone dry. No thanks.

So many clutch shots being made by both teams.

I said “with all due respect”

I use a topical steroid. I don’t want any of that shit killing my immune system.

I have psoriasis so this thread hits close to home.

First and foremost, I’m happy the Shaka era is over. I’m ecstatic that I don’t have to watch his style of basketball. I’m not too keen on having to start watching Beard style of basketball now (or someone like Tony Bennett for that matter). It’s been fun watching Houston and Arkansas in the tournament and that’s a style of basketball I’d much prefer to watch. Would much rather try for Musselman or Sampson. If not one of those guys, I’d prefer a relatively cheap Royal Ivey rather than overpay for Beard.

His Twitter indicates he loves Texas.

How is Ivey regarded as a coach? I gotta admit that I thought Juwon Howard was going to be a colossal failure at Michigan but obviously that isn’t the case. If you could get Ivey for relatively cheap I’d be all for taking a chance on him.

The problem with the last call is that contact like that on a rebound wasn’t called all game and you definitely don’t make a questionable call with 1 second left, you let the players decide the game. If you want to talk about questionable ticky tack fouls that are technically fouls then you should also agree that moving screens on the perimeter during their final possession are also a foul.
