Is UConn having 6 titles (or however many they might have when we win our next one) going to take away the joy we experience when we get number 2? I personally don’t care who has more. Did the Red Sox fans not celebrate their World Series recently because the Yankees have 20 more than them...

The fact they love to talk about us after our years of irrelevancy and having not played us in years is wild to me. The closest link we have to them are our message boards. Some of these fans are acting like jilted exes who stalk social media accounts to make themselves feel better about their...

They have a great team and Hurley is running circles around the opposing coaches. However, their fans are reaching Cowboys/Eagles level of annoyance. Would be nice to see them humbled a bit.

I think this will be their 9th straight tournament game going back to the 1st round last year where they have won by double digits. Absolutely dominant and extremely boring to watch from a casual viewer’s perspective.

Your star point is a good one. The women’s game thrives on their stars. Giving their stars home games the first two rounds basically guarantees no Cinderella situations and gives them the ideal matchups for ratings later on. On a neutral court, we had a damn good chance of winning but it wasn’t...

I have two entries and both are double numbers. On the one hand, guess it doesn’t matter who’s higher or lower. On the other hand, I need blowouts and it’s so hard not to root for a close game.

I noticed there’s no UConn lose in the 1 vs 16 game option. The meltdown that would ensue on their board would be epic.

Oh for sure it’s disappointing as a fan seeing your team miss the tournament for three straight years. However, we hit rock bottom a year or two ago and are heading in the right direction. Next year, the goal has to be make the tournament and I think they will. Look at programs like DePaul, BC...

I feel like our at large chances went out the window with this game. It’s automatic bid or bust.

If we are seeded 5-7, we aren’t playing a semi-decent opponent anyway. I don’t want anything to do with the 8-9 game. Those noon Wednesday games are always a crapshoot. I’ll gladly take a double bye and play the 5 seed with a chance to get UNC the next day in prime time.

The NET might not be great but the positive is if Wake loses, we are half a game out from getting a double bye in the ACC tourney. Our slim tourney hopes stay alive for another few days. Better than the alternative.

Sounds like what tennis does. Seed the top 16 and randomly place the other 48 teams. It would be chaos but possibly more enjoyable than what they come up with now.

Actually, it’s not over yet lol. That was the fifth out of six Champions Wildcard tournament. The last one is over this Thursday. There were four winners from season 37/38. Juveria and this week’s winner are from season 39. Juveria also won the Second Chance tournament of which I think there...

The next Tournament of Champions is starting Friday. For the first time ever, they are including the Celebrity Jeopardy champion. Had a good chuckle seeing the announced matchup of Ike Barinholtz vs 13 day champ Ray Lalonde. Could get ugly quickly.

If the Challenge producers can do us all a favor and not cast Jay on anymore shows, that would be great. Thanks.

Went to the Knick game last night and some guy was wearing a UConn hat and shirt walking around screaming “U-Conn Hus-kies.” I’m like “Sir this is a Wendy’s.”

Andy Cohen is thumbing his nose at you. Gotta start catching up on the 15 years worth of Real Housewives franchises. I see you as a Jersey guy.

I can agree with that. We haven’t been losing to teams we shouldn’t be losing to like the last few seasons. While I am happy with that progress, there still seems to be such a huge gap between us and the teams at the top. These beat downs they are giving us just show how far we still have to go...

No, we definitely aren’t a tourney team. What I meant was most teams play better in March than December or January. I just don’t see it here. We are more stale than yesterday’s bread.

We are the textbook definition of mediocre. It’s great to see them beating the dregs of the NCAA but getting curb stomped by every good team = no man’s land. I don’t think this team is going to be any better come March. We just don’t have the talent yet to match up with these upper echelon teams.

My oldest sister started her freshman year at Syracuse in 1990. I was 7 and fell in love with the basketball program. Been a huge fan ever since. Grew up in the NYC area with a father who is a St Johns fan. Went to many Cuse-St Johns games at MSG as a kid.

Well played sir!

Then those writers should lose their vote because previous seasons should have no bearing on what the team is currently doing. That’s why I like the computer rankings because there are no preconceived judgments.

Not sure Burrow could make the Rutgers bench with the way he played today.

I was at the women’s final yesterday. What an atmosphere. Had my doubts after the first set but what a turn around. Happy for Coco. Also, every player should hire Brad Gilbert as a coach. Pretty sure everyone he’s coached has won a major title with him.

Environmental protestors. Apparently, one of them superglued his bare feet to the floor.

He was 79. Which means he was well into his fifties doing the stuff with Foley. Pretty incredible run.

Schedule is unfavorable. Only teams they play under .500 are the Nationals and Angels. But you never know.

The only games I would think of going to the rest of the season would be the Angels series to see Ohtani. And that will probably be the last time we see Ohtani at Citi Field for a long time because why would he ever want to come to this franchise?

They literally look like a little league team against the Braves.

I heard Owens is dealing with a broken rib so is getting some time off to recover. Not sure why Rhea didn’t wrestle. Originally, it was supposed to be Becky Lynch vs Trish Stratus instead of the Rousey-Baszler match but Rousey had a hard deadline in her contract of when she was leaving WWE so...

Swim up bars, unlimited food and I went swimming with pigs. Was a great day.

I took a 5 night cruise to Bermuda on Royal Caribbean Anthem of the Seas in 2019 and a 7 night cruise on Oasis of the Seas to Port Canaveral, Nassau and Royal Caribbean’s private island in the Bahamas in 2022. Both cruises out of Cape Liberty in Bayonne. Both ships had similar amenities and I...

I get it. They are supposed to be lousy after all these trades. You just never get used to it as a fan.

Double swept. When you think the Mets have hit rock bottom, they say hold my beer.

They did Finn Balor dirty. Guy deserves a title. He could have won and then had a paranoid storyline with whether Priest would cash in on him. Also, the Rousey match might be one of the worst matches I’ve ever seen. Never seen a crowd deflate like that before. Just awful booking.

Shutout by the Royals. Oof. Possibly swept tomorrow. After all these trades, the Mets might be the worst team in baseball the rest of this season. Just dreadful.

I feel like Ohtani was always a pipe dream no matter how good the Mets look going into 2024. The odds of him leaving the west coast are slim. Next year probably won’t be great but they’ll sell again at the deadline and have possibly the best farm system in baseball. Cohen’s blueprint will...

Cohen has thrown in the towel on this season. He must feel pretty confident he can sign some top tier starting pitchers in the off season. I hope he’s right.

If you grew up in the 90s and were into video games, Twisted Metal will bring back some nostalgia. The episodes are short (20-35 minutes). Was able to binge it in two days. It’s definitely not winning any awards but it’s fun and the acting is pretty good. Will Arnett voicing Sweet Tooth stole...

One more to go for the trifecta. If the 10-50 record happens, I’m coming to you for lottery numbers.

Hopefully the infusion of good, young talent.

Robertson gone. And so it begins…

Saw Barbie yesterday and have to say it was definitely different from what I was expecting. That’s a good thing. It wasn’t a movie for children at all. It was actually very political with some mature topics discussed. Far from the best movie of all time but definitely not the worst. Also, the...

The Yankees thread is blowing up with negative comments. They are three games over .500. We are 9 games worse than them and yet I feel completely desensitized to the Mets absolute failure of a season. Thus is the way it goes after years of watching this team.

I think Djokovic has a few years left and will win a few more. He’s been crushing everyone not named Alcaraz. I heard Nadal is going to try to make a brief comeback next year and retire soon after. Would love to see him have one more magical French Open run to send him off into the sunset.

What a match! Saw Alcaraz in person at the 2021 US Open where he beat Tsitsipas. He was 18 at the time and I felt like this kid could be something special. Fast forward two years and he’s a two time grand slam winner and number 1 in the world. Looking forward to the US Open to see if he can...

Keep the young guys definitely but everyone else should be on the market. Verlander and Scherzer should be put out there as trade bait. Canha, Pham, Vogelbach(not that anyone wants him) goodbye. I’d even dangle Alonso to see what they could get for him.

Everything is pretty spread out as far as the seats go so I don’t really even notice other people eating. I enjoy the convenience of not having to stand in a line for concessions but yeah I can see why some people might get annoyed. Servers are walking around so people are whispering constantly...

My wife is a trooper and sits through all the Marvel movies with me. I’ll repay the favor and see Barbie with her, which she is extremely excited about. Going to a dine in so will be having some drinks to help me get through it.
