i thank you for the kind words, Don. that’s lofty praise! i’m forever grateful for the work you do for our People and with this site. i just wish i could do more. one day it would be nice to meet you and many other members that post here in real life. a special thanks to Carolina Speed for...

thank you for thinking of me, Freethinker. i am well; it’s just been an incredibly hectic season in real life, which has made time for talking on the intrawebs nonexistent. in fact, I’ve been so busy that i’ve hardly watched any of the Tourney. alas, my offline time has been filled with...

i mentioned this is the college basketball season thread. it was a VERY dirty cheap shot. i was hoping for something more, but at least this thug was disciplined by the SEC, even if it’s just a slap on the wrist. sadly, the Alabama program didn’t address the problem hardly at all, and they...

Nelson finished the game with a team-high 22 points (9-14 shooting), a career-high 6 blocked shots, and 8 rebounds in leading Alabama to an overtime win. it was only the second time since before Christmas that he’d taken more than 8 shots in a game. many of his baskets last night were on...

he looks like a young Tom Chambers. that’s why Freethinker and i have been in his fan club for a while.

Grant Nelson (of Chitwood University fame) is balling out against Florida tonight! in the first half, he had a game-high 11 points (5-8 shooting), 3 rebounds, and 5 blocks! he’s trying to keep Alabama in the game.

it was a terrific night for our teams in n Tuesday, as several underdogs prevailed over more highly touted opponents. nearly-all-White Creighton knocked off #1 UConn at home, led by a superb first half from sharp shooting point guard Steven Ashworth. #25 BYU knocked off #11 Baylor. #18...

there are a couple of wings that i really like but never talk about enough: Belmont sophomore Cade Tyson and Drake junior Tucker DeVries. both are 6-foot-7, have the ability to score at all levels, can guard multiple positions and are athletic enough to “surprise people.” all told, they’re the...

i’ll take a glass-half-full perspective. Boling’s versatility is one of his greatest strengths, and we’re seeing that on display. if you’ll recall, he set his phenomenal numbers in high school in the 100m while training as a 400m guy. maybe that will apply moving forward? to be fair, however...

she’s a true senior, meaning she’s only been in college four years. with all the weirdness with Covid, she’s eligible to play a fifth year if she wants. and at her current pace she’s on track to (possibly) pass the Pistol’s career mark by the end of this regular season. Pistol Pete not only put...

as a follow up to Caitlin Clark, check out her (current) career numbers as a 22-year-old, 4-year player: 1st all-time in NCAA scoring 3rd all-time in 3-pt shots made 6th all-time in assists 2nd all-time in triple-doubles. she’s truly a generational talent. and she’s a White heterosexual...

they lost their first game after getting ranked. ouch! and to make matters even worse … 1) they lost to a team with a losing record on the year, and 2) they gave up a career-high 31 points (on a red-hot 10-12 shooting!) to a 5-foot-11 White freshman guard, Johnny Kinzinger. after this...

Elijah Pepper, yet another tremendous player who gets zero national media recognition (though he is a starter for Chitwood University’s mid-major team), went OFF last night in a loss. he lit up the net for 32 (on 10-19 shooting), hitting 8 (out of 13) threes! he also had 6 rebounds, 3 assists...

i’ve attended this grazing school. twice! Greg Judy is the real deal in the regenerative farming movement that is healing the land while allowing the farmer to make a profit.

some befuddling strategy by the 49ers, but it was an entertaining game. ultimately, that’s all that it should count for. just a fun game. sadly, it will impact much more than that.

my only question for San Fran is why take the ball out of McCaffrey’s hands? he’s been nearly absent in the second half.

and now from 53!!! these athletes are simply phenomenal!

i can’t believe we’ve never mentioned Drew Pember!!! Pember is a scoring and shot blocking machine. the two-time Big South defensive PoY and conference PoY (he’ll likely win both again this season) was one of only two players nationally a year ago to lead his conference in scoring, rebounding...

i quote myself with good reason. 57 yards!!! WOW!!!

i have the feeling that San Fran is playing with fire by not taking advantage of any of these KC miscues. a 7 point lead is nothing with either of these two offenses.

three-and-out with no touches (or even looks) for Kittle, Juice, or McCaffrey.

don’t forget your lunch pails, hard hats, and blue collars. LOL

LOL. i often wonder what happened to all those other guys who said they’d participate … so many good players out there who get too little recognition.

Watson with the catch-and-run and then a near-catch on the pass thrown behind him. it would be cool if he had a big night.

it would appear so. also, somehow not wanting muslims in your community is also jewish hate. LOL
