Sports fan, especially LSU, UGA, all CFB, MLB, NASCAR. Will watch almost anything except the NBA - they lost me years ago.
umm, Karl Ravech calling ESPN's game in Atlanta tonight? Did I miss something???
just learned Antoinette Bower passed away, albeit a couple of months ago. The unforgettable Sylvia of the Star Trek OS episode "Catspaw". RIP
no res-pite from the sun on this field? Really, John Strong?
so Trump is gonna demand that Pochettino be fired, right?
sorry West Virginia, but this NY Yankee-fied logo sucks really bad.
nice of CBS to finally show CO-LEADER Sam Burns' troubles on the 2nd hole which led to his double-bogey, a full 30 minutes after it happened. Guess they couldn't break away from Rory, Scottie, etc. before then.
funny how NASCAR will end a stage under caution but not the whole race....
I'll preface this by saying I have no dog in the fight, but the lawsuits filed by Diego Pavia and Trinidad Chambliss to extend their eligibility feel like cash grabs by college quarterbacks who already know they have no future as NFL players. Another byproduct of the NIL era.
as I said on Selection Sunday, Alabama proved today that they didn't belong in the College Football Playoff. Put them in the secondary playoff with James Madison, Tulane and Texas Tech.
The C batteries in our mantle clock are almost dead. "Almost", because over the last week, as I have failed to find replacements, the hands have still been moving 5 or 6 minutes every day. My fascination with this is tempered only by the dozen times each day I forget and check it for the time.
I think there's something inherently wrong with the Brewers catcher wearing a chest protector with the Air Jordan logo on it. He's obviously dunking a basketball, jeez...
Anybody else expecting half of the troops deploying to Oregon with the other half going to Maine?

not sure why FOX still has their racing announcers in suit/tie every week. Shouldn't they be sponsored up like everything else in Nascar?
I'm sorry but if that wreck doesn't immediately bring out the caution, NASCAR has decided to endanger its drivers in return for a green flag finish. The two leaders wrecked each other, for God's sake! The whole field could have plowed into them.
Wrecky Outhouse Jr. strikes again, destroys half a dozen cars at Daytona.
cars uncovered again after the drizzle stopped. Expecting to try again in 15-20 mins.
frontstretch getting damp, pace car brings them down pitroad, drivers staying in cars. My wager of 11am Monday restart is still safe.
Logano spotter just reported small raindrops on the roof. Jeez...
cars on track. Radar still looks iffy to me, especially an hour or so from now.
just heard Nascar Control give the order to uncover the cars and have the drivers seated again by 5:25. Might have some racing this evening after all.
Started watching Yellowstone. After a few episodes, it's clear why the MAGA crowd loves it. A bunch of selfish assholes negotiating their lives by shooting/beating the shit out of each other. No thanks.
Typical NCAA/FBS crap. The football transfer portal windows certainly needed revising so of course they went overboard, down to a single window of 10 days in January. They should have left the April window alone, after spring practice. By the time they get it right, something else will break.
I've heard the Carter Family mentioned a lot today and each time, "Wildwood Flower" starts playing in my head.
