    Athlete Crime Thread

    nice to see the increasing vibrancy, cultural enrichment, and affleticism in golf … https://www.lawofficer.com/minneapolis-impaled-with-golf-club/ “suspect” stabs 66-year old cashier to death with golf club. the “man” was eventually apprehended, but obviously doesn’t fit the kosher-approved...

    despite injuring his ankle in his tremendous outing at North Carolina, Dalton Knecht played against George Mason, though he was noticeably hobbled. his season averages took a bit of a beating due to the injury, but it showed A) that he’s a tough kid, and B) Tennessee is in BIG trouble without...

    Reed Sheppard of Kentucky has been named the SEC freshman of the week. Dick Vitale named his national “diaper dandy” of the week. he’s likely the best freshman in the country, and he’s certainly the best player on the otherwise-all-Upsider rotation for Calipari and the Wildcats. someone else...

    College Hoops Season 2023-24

    Clemson has been the surprise of the season thus far, to me. behind the strength of the three overachieving gym rats in their starting lineup, the Tigers are ranked in the top-25. and after tonight’s win over in-state rival South Carolina, they’re still undefeated, at 8-0 on the year. PJ Hall...

    Kolek is putting on a Clinic against #12 Texas. ever since he transferred to Chitwood University, he’s simply EXPLODED! there’s a reason i call him the GM.

    Cody Schrader

    while this is an accurate assessment if the facts mattered, unfortunately facts don’t matter to the Caste System. Schrader is undoubtedly an outstanding player, but that has happened before, even in the SEC. do you recall Jacob Hester? as a starting tailback, Hester carried LSU to a national...

    2023 NFL Week 13

    the two Arkansas linebackers who played with and were clearly better than Greenlaw are Bumper Pool and Grant Morgan. the two who were as good or perhaps better were Brooks Ellis (2-year team captain and 2-time academic all-American) and Hayden Henry. Ellis had a cup of coffee in the NFL, before...

    i just watched the replay of the Purdue at Northwestern game. WOW! what a fun game to watch! both teams played so hard, neither relented, both made big runs which were answered by their opponent’s huge shots. so good! and it didn’t hurt that both teams played so many of our guys for big...

    2023 NFL Week 13

    you’ve got the two who were clearly far better (Bumper Pool and Grant Morgan), so i’ll wait and see if you can guess the other (perhaps two?) name(s) who were as good if not better, before i respond to Don’s request.

    2023 NFL Week 13

    Dre Greenlaw is an excellent example of how the Caste System is perpetuated … he’s a solid, perhaps above average player at his position in the NFL. he’s making a lot of money, and he makes enough “splash plays” to be regarded as talented. yet, he played alongside AT LEAST THREE White...

    this is a true statement. fortunately for the Badgers, they managed to prevail today against #3 Marquette, despite Storr (5-14) and Hepburn (3-9) both jacking up a lot of poor shots today despite (because of?) Klesmit’s hot start. Wahl and Crowl both played well, finishing with efficient...

    #1 Purdue got upset on the road at Northwestern last night, dropping their first game of the year, 88-92. despite a HUGE rebounding advantage, the Boilermakers’ loss can be described with one simple stat: turnovers. Purdue had 17; Northwestern had only 3. **************** Saint Mary’s...

    College Hoops Season 2023-24

    the nearly-all-White Jays of Creighton manhandled the all-black Oklahoma State team last night. somehow the gym rats didn’t get the memo that White men aren’t supposed to be good at basketball, and they unleashed some of that privilege i’ve been hearing about. it was a very nice bounce back...

    as a follow up to my post regarding Utah, they’ve got some intriguing albeit unheralded players. perhaps most notable among the list is senior wing, Gabe Madsen. with good size and nice bounce, Madsen is an aggressive slasher with a knack for finishing. he’s another case of a late bloomer...

    Knecht put the Vols on his back and carried them, almost pulling out what would’ve been an EPIC comeback. they were down by 24(?) early in the second half, and then he just took over. dude is a MONSTER. he rolled his ankle after getting fouled/knocked to the floor on a drive to the basket...

    Braden Smith almost earned a triple-double to lead the Boilermakers to an easy win over a bunch of Upside Americans. the sophomore had an efficient team-high 19 points (6-12 shooting), 8 rebounds, 10 assists, a steal, and a blocked shot with 2 turnovers. the “Little Ball of Hate,” as i call...

    Reed Sheppard, the lone White athlete in Kentucky that plays basketball apparently, went for a game-high 21 points off the bench tonight (on a stellar 8-13 shooting, including 5-9 from three) to lead the Wildcats over #8 Miami. he also had 5 rebounds, 4 assists , 3 steals, and a blocked shot...

    totally diverse Texas Southern is winless on the season, but they’re losing with vibrancy, dynamic affleticsm, game-changing culturally enriching style, and (of course) ever present Upside. tonight, they’re currently bringing that “diversity is our strenff” to Purdue … and down 15 at the half...

    Iowa had a nice bounce back game vs. all-black Seton Hall. Payton Sandfort led the way with a game-high 22 (7-14 shooting) and 9. power forward Ben Krikke added an uber-efficient 18 (on 8-10 shooting) with 5 assists. ************ speaking of bounce back games, Saint Mary’s returned to the...
