  1. Maryland
  2. Should be accurate holler if it isn't.
  3. I'll go Clempson. I'll update the pic when I can.
  4. Gimme a sec busy at work rn
  5. Yeah big fan of that one.
  6. Shit man I'll tear up some Rosa's. It's basically just a better version of Taco Cabana.
  7. Maybe he's a time-travelling, giant centipede type creature that needs to maintain higher oxygen levels in his home to survive.
  8. Michigan
  9. Venmo sent. Whoever wins yw for the $30.
  10. Got it - I'll add it on my next go-round.
  11. Picks made so far. Doing highlighter so everyone can still see who is playing who.
  12. No he meant now it's his turn you're good lol.
  13. Michigan is a good job but Texas has nicer facilities and a much nicer arena. Not sure what their NIL is like but at best it's probably a wash with Texas. I think Texas is pretty clearly the better job moving forward but it's easy to see a coach staying at UM long term.
  14. I'm going to make a pic of the bracket with who has been taken already crossed out and upload. I'll try and keep it updated every roundish while we draft so we can keep track of who is available.
  15. The Suns are somehow not playing like complete fucking dogshit tonight. I wonder if it's replicable.
  16. Kansas
  17. She has a point. Could you imagine if there were WNBA players that were attracted to women? Wait...
  18. I'm looking through the bracket right now. I don't trust any of these teams.
  19. They definitely aren't very good anymore. 2nd that I like getting the ones you cook yourself.
  20. You've never had neighbors with dogs?
  21. Close enough.
  22. And Shaka Smart was directly responsible for both of them.
  23. No 448 on Spectrum yet.
  24. But that's on top of needing Apple+ or whatever, right? But they had a ton more games on TV before the Apple deal. Like it already existed and was on TV and the league is trying to get more and more popular. This season meanwhile there are 34 games in total on national TV/cable which is barely one game per team. Compare the MLS coverage/reach to the WNBA's: It just feels like it was a shortsighted move by the MLS to take the money and as a result seriously restrict where casual fans and local fans can view matches. There are a lot of people (like me) that are soccer fans and sports fans in general that want to watch their local team play 5 or 10 or 15 or whatever matches per season and they turned that into a pain in the ass. I'm not interested in paying to watch Charlotte/Nashville or DC United/Chicago or even spend $20 or $25 on a month subscription where I don't wind up watching one Austin game. It seems like the move for MLS is to grow the sport locally/regionally and have people follow THEIR team/club - because there are much better soccer leagues out there that the soccer fans in America are already watching - on top of international soccer. It isn't like the NBA or NHL or MLB where fans of the sport are going to tune in marquee national matchups because those leagues play the game at the highest level - and because of that I would think it requires a different marketing strategy. The exception, obviously, is if you get superstars like Messi that already have a following - but if you're someone that only wants to watch Messi or (going back) Ibra or Kaka or whoever then you got paywalled just like anyone that only wants to watch their local club.
  25. Some reporter asked Rory today if he thinks anyone that follows him will get to 30+ wins and he goes "If Scottie keeps having 9 win seasons he'll get there pretty quickly" which was a perfect answer to a dumb question.
