Is Clear necessary if you have pre-check? Do you need to jump multiple TSA lines for some reason?

Make the Final Four a best of 3 series, ban zone defenses, and reset fouls at the half (3 per half allowed).
CBB is fixed IMHO.

Yes. It's glorious. Clear takes you to the front of any line and precheck allows you to keep shoes, jackets and laptops in bag. Curb to gate in Vegas was like 8 minutes.
False.
Basketball "smarts" comes into play more than any other major sport when a player might be at a disadvantage in the "athletic" dept. Or perhaps a WR like the ones Brady has used for years...their brain is better than your ability to run fast.
Using your definition....5 great "basketball" players who are marginal athletes would wear out 5 athletes who suck at hoops.
To add to the Rafters post, coaches and officials are are both guilty of micromanagement..
Just get out of the way, and let the players play. Fans don't tune in to see Pat Adams teeing coaches up for hurting his feelings, and they don't tune in to see John Calipari jumping, gyrating, screaming, sweating, randomly subbing players, and acting like a psychopath on the sidelines.
No, the players aren't as skilled as they were 25 years ago (whether because of one & done, AAU or both), but they're more athletic than ever. Everything the coaches and refs do to interfere with that diminishes the overall product.
Pass a rule that requires refs to answer questions from the media after the game and another rule that says coaches have to spend the game operating a camera like Cal did in the Bahamas.
Boom, problem solved.

I think players, especially bigs, are more skilled than ever. It's the maturity and development of the top talent over a few seasons together.
This is not a criticism of the OAD per se, because I still haven't heard a proposal for a better system, it's just a fact of life of college basketball.
Tony Delk was a backup for 2 years. Ron Mercer, the 2nd rated player in his class, came off the bench for a year. Jeff Sheppard was freaking redshirted. Player and team development created a better product.
Yes, the coaches were much tamer and behind the scenes in the glory days of the ‘80s and ‘90s. [eyeroll]
Just spitballing but perhaps the game sucks more now because the players are younger and not as good now.

Yea.... Just watch Requiem for the Big East with your all's Disney+, ESPN+ subscription
Those Coaches were the damn show.

The fact that kids don't actually go out and play sports without adult intervention is probably a significant issue.
We have travel sports for 11 year olds. That is so ******* stupid it defies words.

I, for one, think it’s important to know which 11-year old girl’s softball team is the greatest in the United States. Quit being sexist.
Got Drennen
Somebody get Stoops a wheelbarrow for those nuts

Drennen picks Kentucky. Let's go.
That kid has a BIG personality. Some of that stupid hat stuff is obnoxious, but he's a natural speaker, and has a ton of charisma.

We’re started bro.

Got damn if we can get a QB to play consistent the future is uncharted territory for the gridiron ‘Cats.
Of course CBB players aren't as good now as they used to be. There are no more Ewings, Sampsons, Tisdales, Mannings, etc., in college basketball, and there never will be.
And while there have always been big personalities on the sidelines, if you think coaches don't micromanage moreso now than they did in the 80s, you didn't watch college basketball in the 80s.
It ain't close.

Man, it's really hard to get away from that Bowden comp. The deceptive speed, the way guys seem to slide off of him, and even the way they used him is just like watching Bowden at Kentucky.
Why aren’t they selling BIG DOG GOTTA EAT shirts yet
Puppies scent to this guy who flew from SoCal to see the kid pick another school.
Don’t get bitchy just because I **** on your silly theory.
And i’m pretty optimistic, but let’s win the games before we’re too good for the Blue Bonnet and Copper Bowl. Don’t want us sounding like Louisville fans.
So what’s the etiquette for over hearing the table next to your’s conversation? I mean, I’ve heard about enough from these libtard idiots, but they are in such despair I’m biting my tongue because the train wreck is enjoyable.
They used to put people in a smoking/nonsmoking section. Maybe they should start with conservative/liberal seating, although they’d probably spit in our food.

Doc,
You should pick up their check and, as you roll out, shoot them a condescending look and remark, “I know you’re having a bad day, maybe this will help.”
A “bless your hearts” might be a good mic drop as you depart.

Pull out your side piece and lay it on the table, Doc. And then order a Baked Alaska.
Ask them if they want to come back for a bubbly, then waterboard them.
You should definitely interrupt their dinner with your personal political opinions. I’m sure that will be a welcome and stimulating conversation that will result in minds being changed. You never know, you might be a Libtard idiot by the end of it, or maybe you’ll convert them to Contard (?) idiots. Either way, uninvited political discussion is always welcome between complete strangers.
Doc's a weird dude. What's the etiquette on interrupting people at a restaurant to discuss divisive politics? Dunno, man, I missed that day at cotillion.
