  1. I’m an innocent bystander. I only pointed out the actual numbers. I did not ascribe a conspiracy. UF’s size is starting to impact the game.
  2. That was an impressive play by UF
  3. And now UH with 9, UF with 8. Guys have to adjust now.
  4. It took 10 minutes or so for UF to get a foul called in the first. They are already at 3 just over two minutes in.
  5. It’s a good game. Not a pretty game but, I don’t think anyone expected that. I’m enjoying it and I think I want Houston to win more than I wouldn’t mind Florida winning. I’m just enjoying some ball since i had to watch Pitt all season. This is kind of the palate cleanser.
  6. Thought maybe it was a counterfeit from Australia.
  7. So glad this isn’t the Let’s Fellate Cooper Flagg broadcast.
  8. What’s with that 👆 dude’s hat?
  9. Not that they have played very often but, I thought this was funny. The Pirates had a walk-off single yesterday to beat the Yankees and it was the first walk-off for the Pirates against the Yankees since Maz in the 1960 World Series. It's such a piss-poor run franchise. We have one of the top ballparks but a AAA team has been trotted out since 1992. I'd rather go see The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars & Motor Kings.
  10. I think we know what Houston will do, especially defensively. For me, the key is what Florida did to AU with their rotation of big guys. Cardwell is not a scorer even though he doubled his average. They were able to wear down Broome, obviously not at 100%, and I think how they defended him was the difference. Can Florida's big guys make it too difficult for Houston?
  11. I get ya but, nobody outside of Durham cares about how close they have gotten. And yes, I'm well aware my two teams haven't won shit. Fuck both Duke & Cal at Kentucky.
  12. I get it. But, that stuff gets old. I don't think anyone on this site has talked smack about how good Houston is as a team. I've said all season I thought they were very good and could win the whole thing. Yes, the media sucks ass. I wanted UCONN to beat South Carolina yesterday but, I had to side with the Gamecocks coach when she responded, a day before, to a reporter asking her about Paige and her legacy. Why the fuck would Staley care about Paige's legacy when Staley herself is building a damned good legacy herself? Even though I wrote for 30 years I always hated sharing questions and always preferred to ask questions on my own, not in a gaggle.
  13. It’s such a hard thing, in any sport. I’ve said before that my top-five has Fangio, Schumacher, Senna, Clark and Hamilton. And that could be my order. It’s just too hard to compare the different eras.
  14. I’m was covering the Silver Cup that night. And I will not forget the sound when Sammy hit the truck. One of the hardest stories I ever wrote was my annual Father’s Day story I wrote with a driver whose father had died in a crash at Challenger Raceway. It was a good story, and I think it actually helped the driver to talk about it in a public forum. It helped that I was well-known as not that guy who writes sensational crap for a cheap thrill. As for Alonso, I just think age is taking over, like it is for Hamilton. Father Time is undefeated. As for Yuki and Lawson, I’m not saying Lawson will be better than Yuki, just that watching in qualifying and races will be fun and if Lawson gets close to Yuki there will be comments.
  15. I generally like him but, this is again one of those “nobody respected us” type comments. Houston is a #1 seed. They have been a top team all season. Everyone, here at least, has said they sure as hell could win the national title. Nobody is sleeping on Houston. Nobody.
  16. https://x.com/thecatspause247/status/1908859930502926393?s=42 John Calipari gets a lot of grief for leaving some meat one the bone, but over the last 10 years, Duke has not won a national championship despite having: – 36 5-stars – 28 McDonald's All-Americans – 18 first round picks – 9 top-5 prospects – 8 lottery picks – 7 top-10 prospects – 3 No. 1 prospects – 2 No. 1 overall NBA Draft picks
  17. There were some excellent photos from below. 👆
  18. 18 offensive and 24 defensive. Domination.
