  1. Greg Olson for a Super Bowl speaks to a really weak bench of broadcasters.
  2. It’s interesting that Lake landed the moniker Loser cunt while Trump maintains his Pathetic Little Man despite the uh, demonstrated treasonous anti-democracy data points. On 2nd thought, not interesting. Fucked up. It’s in no small part this reticence to speak truth and not alienate patrons that gives this fucker oxygen.
  3. WV had 9 assists and 20 turnovers today. Huggins may have penned that sign himself.
  4. This game is beating a dead horse, so continuing the Galindo flagellation seems apropos. Dude sees things in such binary terms. Texas is doing great because of Rodney Terry. True enough, but nary a mention of all the experience on this roster.
  5. Chris Beard’s most lasting contribution to the program might just be his focus on connecting students to the games. It wasn’t a 1 person effort but he certainly championed it. I hope the next guy keeps that torch burning.
  6. Lowell Galindo is more disinterested in talking about the actual game being played than any play by play guy ever.
  7. Economics in Oregon right now are a buyer’s market. You can buy at those prices, but there’s plenty decent available in the $40/oz range. And yes, dispensaries are still sometimes unloading $15 grams on tourists.
  8. Puhleeze. Stupid official review
  9. I will absolutely take a 7 pt halftime deficit at Kansas when half our backcourt is playing like they are coming out of a sedation procedure.
  10. “Brook Cunningham” is far less butch.
  11. WTF is Carr thinking dribbling around the baseline? Weird step in/out of hounds.
  12. Terry needs to call a timeout and coach his team.
  13. Tyrese not wanting to shoot is getting to be a chronic problem. Mentally he’s like Dylan Mitchell; “parasitic” in ineloquent Blanksese. Tyrese has no confidence in his shooting game right now. It’s perplexing. Then I remember he’s 19 years old.
  14. Jabari’s fake on the 3pt shot to cut it to 11 before the half was so clutch. Purple’s timeout to ice him had no effect.
  15. Mission accomplished on getting some space from her pesky family, I guess.
  16. RIP Shirl. I remember her being in The First Nudie Musical back in cable’s early days. Young DG was disappointed after finding the film leaned heavily musical with scant nudity.
  17. Not talking to you only, but if the Horns don’t survive and advance to the NCG, a not insignificant part of me hopes to see a Tennessee-Marquette final that ends in a tie so all the repetitive, petty heads here can finally explode and get it the fuck over with.
  18. I wonder which witch didn’t have a square to spare? My guess is they both use the whole rolls to own the libs.
  19. I was crushed with the Beard saga. Totally pulled the rug out from me. I had to mourn the loss of what I had imagined would be: years of enjoying a successful program with him at the helm. Now, I’m pretty much over that and just enjoying the games. The team has responded better than I expected. Losing Beard is weirdly freeing in terms of expectations; we’re now as much of an underdog that #10 in the country could be. Instead of anxiously waiting for our favorite to falter, I’m seeing a group deal with adversity and succeeding. All said, I can’t complain too much at this point.
  20. Small irony given all the California shootings: as you enter Yakima, the sign says “Welcome to the Palm Springs of Washington!” The illusion fades quickly though. It becomes immediately obvious that Yakima’s more like Fresno.
  21. I’m in after starting Jan 5. Lagunitas Hoppy Refresher and a spate of Q ginger beers have filled the slot fine. There are moments when it occurred to me I wanted a drink, but fortunately the lonely, unfinished bottles of booze we have at home are not irresistible. I am so very grateful for that.
  22. It’s been a whole 2 years since one party staged a violent coup to remain in power, and many in the party are incapable of even admitting that basic reality. You have lost any credibility or moral higher ground you ever had. Shove your clutched pearls.
  23. Good call. I drive by Silver Falls on my way to Portland via Salem when traveling from the east.
  24. The one place I’d consider adding is Silver Falls state park outside Portland. So many waterfalls. You’ve seen it before in commercials without knowing it. As I understand, it was considered for a National Park back in the day but the adjacent clear cutting was objectionable to the aesthetic. Guess what? It’s been a century or so, and the foliage has largely grown back.
