I have a very good brain, everybody says so.
Tyler Olander has more national championships than Jim Boeheim.
Having now had to contend with reactions to Silas Demary Jr. at practice it seems obvious to me that we’re all going to have to quickly agree to shorthand to either Silas or SDJ and put me very strongly in the SDJ camp.
I am only now getting to the new Wes Anderson (thank you Peacock for being worth something in July) but I remain, eternally, so delighted that Wes Anderson exists. Two Wes Andersons would be far too many, but one. One Wes Anderson is just right.
Cocomelon is garbage that is cynically designed to pull small children into an attention-sucking vortex. UNLESS you’re on a plane. Then it’s good.
“We’re the first conference to leverage branding that constitutes as intellectual property.”
American commissioner Tim Pernetti talks about Soar the Eagle: “We’re the first conference to leverage branding that constitutes as intellectual property.”
Would you like to read my book about the best St. John’s season in 25 years (2 seed winning exactly one tournament game and losing to a 10 seed, which is also what happened 25 years ago)
Actually making it 48 hours without violating a rule or law is p impressive for Memphis
Thursday: Memphis basketball put on two-year NCAA probation for academic fraud. Saturday: Player arrested on charges of aggravated assault. Not a great run.
In light of last night’s concert goings on I was wondering if we could circle back to your views on Coldplay @mnardi1985. You a fan?
Okay now that we’ve reached this point @mnardi1985 let’s level set: 1) I loathed you as a player 2) I respect you as a coach 3) I’m excited you’re with us now 4) But you’ve gotta answer the question: do you like Coldplay
The minds behind “Ken Pomeroy isn’t impressed enough that we beat the No. 121 team by seven at home” are excited to announce the thrilling sequel, “Jon Rothstein only thinks we’ll win 18 games because Kim English wasn’t nice enough to Mr. Trump”
Listen. No one was a bigger fan of Jon Rothstein than myself at one point in time. Unfortunately, that day is no longer. Jon has little to no journalistic integrity and for whatever reason, does not like Kim English. I’m not sure if Kim is targeted by the media for his political…
Baseball should have ties. But if it doesn’t have ties it should have home run shootouts.
They play sports for a team I don’t like. Or they play sports bad for a team I do like.
What is a subtle sign someone isn’t a good person?
I saw Hurley’s ranking and was like “that’s wrong, I can see why you get there but let me make an obscure argument about Wagner to really show it’s wrong” and then I saw Calhoun’s ranking and just got mad.
I ranked the best 25 college basketball coaches of the last 25 years. Not an easy exercise. Here’s the list: nytimes.com/athletic/64914…
The Memphis Grizzlies and two-way guard Cam Spencer's representatives, Mark Bartelstein and Ross Aroyo of @PrioritySports, have restructured the agreement to re-sign: Spencer is now inking a new four-year, $10.5 million deal, with three fully guaranteed seasons, sources said.
The Memphis Grizzlies and guard Cam Spencer have agreed to a two-year, $4.5 million fully guaranteed contract, sources tell ESPN. Mark Bartelstein and Ross Aroyo of @PrioritySports finalized a deal with Memphis execs after Spencer had flashes of strong play as a two-way rookie.
When you’re wearing an intentionally loud piece of clothing from a niche brand to the beach and you see another guy walking on the beach wearing a shirt from the same brand and you pass each other and say “nice shirt” simultaneously >>>>>>>>>>
Was blindingly obvious Liam McNeeley was going to be a good NBA player. As with Memphis fans and Cam last year, fun to watch the Hornets fans realize it in real time.

Cornell if the Ivy League engaged in conference realignment:
Given how constant and universal realignment has been throughout the history of college football, it’s amazing that there’s a D1 football conference that was founded with 8 teams 70 years ago and has simply never changed.
Risk Analyst at Huddle ✅ Las Vegas Metro Area ✅ I'm just going to go out on a limb and say that's probably a fair assumption.
This person also sent an identical request to UNC. I wonder if he’s the most degenerate gambler alive
In the space of five weeks the Wall Street Journal has published two different articles by two different authors about a guy being nicknamed Big Dumper
