He should be on BlueSky instead, or at least in addition to. Love that Luke Bonner will post about anything and everything on BlueSky.

And I totally agree with the person who said they should be charging $ for carry-ons, not checked bags.

I like it too. Make the conference season mean something!

We have zero compelling home games on weekends. Of the top 4 finishers from last season (Miami, Akron, Kent State, Toledo), all of them visit Mullins on a Tuesday. You have to get down to the .500 / tied for 5th Bowling Green or Ohio to find them on a weekend visit.


Tuesday Night's Alright For ...

Yeah, we're gonna see Danny play almost every possible minute.

I bet Clayton is the guy for those rare minutes Danny isn't in there.

The whole season fate relies on qualifying for and winning the MAC conference tourney. Troy, Wake, and perhaps some of the conference games will be promising. It's a really sad era for Men's hoops. I may still go to UMass at Troy, probably not I'll be in Atlanta for the 49ers-Falcons the week before ...

Too easy? Too lame?

Saturday, I had the opportunity to use Camby and Dr J in the Grid, which was fantastic. BPG category for both. Camby >1 BPG for Portland, and Dr J >1 BPG for the Sixers.

Need to work Skinner, Forbes, Jarreau, Ketner, Lasme, Roe (and AJ Wynder?) in as well sometime.

Anyone play this for Pro Baseball, NBA, NFL, Soccer, English Soccer, WNBA?

I worked with Claude to generate a 3x3 that should be viable....although some categories will be light in names. This is probably going to be super simple for you guys. But ...

I couldn't believe it when I heard it on the broadcast, but the fact that they only allowed 1 goal all tournament is mind blowing. That's dominance. And Argentina didn't even get a single shot on target or otherwise until the final extra time minutes when they were in full scramble mode ...

Semifinal games are on at 3:00 EST today and tomorrow. How are these not in the evening? If the discourse out there is that Americans don't care about soccer, then putting big matches on at times when most of the country can't watch should help fuel that narrative. I get that they're catering to ...

I'll predict France, Belgium, England, and Argentina to go to the semis. Spain just seems to be a bit rudderless right now and a few top options for Belgium barely played vs USA (Doku and KDB). Would love to see Spain and Argentina focus and play like we know they can.

Would love to see Haaland ...

Yeah, definitely a off-night to say the least. Not having a proper center back definitely contributed to our woes. Belgium's 9 just physically dominated.

Feels like Pulisic was playing hurt (he is pretty dam fragile) after the Paraguay match. The good news is a lot of other guys are really ...

I may drive down for this if anyone else happens to go, barring some extreme weather event.....

Let me know if anyone else plans to make the trip.

The chaos agent got a get out of jail free card from the ultimate chaos agent.

Great to see Norway, U.S., Mexico, and Canada all advance.

I didn't enjoy the red card on Balogun and he'll be missed vs. Belgium, but I love how active Pepi was at the end of the match. I think he may give Belgium some issues at the 9, assuming he's starting there.

It's definitely been better than expected so far. Has anyone attended WC matches in Boston?

I might try to make it to Atlanta if I can find a cheap enough ticket and the matchup is good.

Good to see Norway advance! Get to root for Haaland for once, since I dislike City a lot.
