    Most likely first round upset

    Damn... I picked both Santa Clara and VCU in my pool so the fact that people here like them doesn't make me feel good... :-)

    NCAA Tourney: Why is Auburn on the bubble??

    Ok, they beat Florida, Arkansas, St. Johns, and an ok NC State team, but also lost by 30 to Michigan, 29 to Arizona, 28 to Purdue. They are one game over .500 and 4 games under in conference. Ok, they lost by 1 to Houston, but close closes are not supposed to be a factor.

    OT: CU Buffs quarterback Dominiq Ponder dies

    Yeah, I saw that, only explains a 23 year old sophomore, but doesn't make it less weird. Again, a terrible tragedy.

    JMike

    I hope JMike does stay next year. Having that consistency is a big plus. He really would be a "loyal son".

    OT: CU Buffs quarterback Dominiq Ponder dies

    Terrible. Not wanting to take away from the tragedy, but I will never get used to seeing "23 year old sophomore".

    OT: Starlink launch tonight

    Happened to catch one in Florida a couple of weeks ago from several hundred miles away. Definitely cool to see.

    OT: 2026 PGA Tour Thread

    Hitting two balls in the water is something I have seen countless times from my own game.... I actually like Lowry. Think he'd be a blast to hang out with in a bar.

    Dorian Jones Question Richie

    He is very engaging with the team and the fans during pre-game. Only thing I didn't like was watching him eat a bag of chips while on the court pre-game. Let me tell you I'm old school without telling you I'm old.

    OT: College BBall venues

    Been to Hagan a bunch of times. Only bad seats are in the endzone up high because you can't see the scoreboard depending on your seat. Food is really bad though. Hot dogs, bad pizza, "walking tacos", pretzels. Went to "The Dunk" (Providence) to see RU play years ago (Juel Wiggan had a big...

    OT: Deliver Me From Nowhere (Springsteen Movie)

    It is a bit difficult to read isn't it? Really just wish it could stay on the original topic.. Or at least just away from politics. When the movie first came out, I heard the buzz about the guy playing Bruce. Ehh... Just seemed forced. Had a discussion one night with a bunch of...

    OT: Deliver Me From Nowhere (Springsteen Movie)

    Interesting. I know several people that have interacted with him and found him to be quite nice... though one buddy dealt with both him and Patty and said she was a raving b-tch the first two times, then settled down. Its also quite possible that people feel he's not a nice guy at the gym...

    OT: 2026 PGA Tour Thread

    Anyone ever play Pebble or Spyglass, the two courses they are using this week for the Pro-Am? I had one "shot" at Pebble about 15 years ago where I had to be out there for work and had a free day. I checked and they had a spot for a single, but I ended up not tasking it. The ridiculous...

    OT: 2026 PGA Tour Thread

    I saw a report that on the playoff hole where Matsuyama stopped his swing (very difficult thing to do!), it was a security guard or worker that accidentally dropped a folding chair. I couldn't totally make out the sound, but it may have been that. I believe I also heard someone say "Sorry".

    OT: 2026 PGA Tour Thread

    15 and 17 are much better holes, both with big risk/reward factors. The other par 3 on the back nine, I think #12, is such a better hole especially the way they cut more water into play.
