Shorts:
- First and foremost, we’re beating Louisville FFS.
- Schadenfreude is great as a sports fan but it’s played WAAAAY too big of F’ing role in my college basketball fandom the past 5 years.
- True adulthood brings with a myriad of challenges and stresses, but there is no better place for a mature male to catch a ballgame than his UK den drinking his own bourbon surrounded by wall memorabilia he collected.
- Speaking of, because there is no chance in hell my blue collar dad could navigate an app of any sort, he’s been catching these early season games at my house. It’s been great. It’s always great, but there have been more joyous “high five and laugh” moments after great plays this year than the past 6-7 combined.
- My gawd it’s nice to enjoy Feast Week again. Looking forward to us being involved in these tournaments again. Still can’t comprehend Cal avoiding them.
- Took my daughter to breakfast this morning and she randomly started belting “H-O-T-T-O-G-O” at the top of her lungs.
- Gen Z is weird. This mustache shit is but one example. I blame social media.
- F an artsy documentary. Give me good straight forward interviews, supporting media and content.
- Who has had better fortune the past year through no credit of his own than Jason Kelce?
- The NFL is too shiny and corporate. I hate it.
- Praying this Trump dub means we can get true comedies again.
- Anecdotally, I’m a smidge concerned about legalized sports gambul, apps and young men.
- The respect given to Big 10 football like the last 25 years never happened. My gawd.
- Hate to break it anyone but Chaz Lanier is a damn stud.
- It is absurd that the tremendous metropolis that is Cincinnati doesn’t have a better answer for an arena than Riverfront Coliseum. I start getting whifs of Drakkar Noir just thinking about that shithole.
- I speak from a position of knowledge on this one, basketball in hotel ballrooms is really weird.
