I don't care about it being ugly and messy. We take the W.

A win is a win is a [four-syllable pause] win.

Did a show at this venue a few months back. Thought it was a really cool place and could tell it was a really a *part* of Raleigh

There are the Wolves I have known so long.

In "Smart or Stupid?" Tic Tac Toe, tonight's Timberwolves fans came soooooo close to not being stupid.

Where should X go next?

Yes, the Wizards are terrible.
But would anyone be surprised if the Timberwolves were up just 4 or 6 at halftime?
Leading by 25 is a great sign of progress.

More Naz Reid touches: Good

Jaden McDaniels injury: bad
Possibly more Naz Reid touches? good

(the jersey isn't even for me, but obviously all of us want more Naz Reid touches and subsequent joys.)

Then again, dream bigger Notre Dame fans.

Oklahoma could lose to either Missouri (Sooners -7.5) or LSU.
Georgia vs. Georgia Tech and Mississippi vs. Mississippi State are both rivalry games that will have spreads within two touchdowns.

Or, CHEER FOR USC THIS WEEKEND

Credit to our dumbest mutual friend for getting me onto cough drops as I struggled to recover from COVID.
They just weren't a tool in the Farmer medicine cabinet growing up. I had no idea their effectiveness!!

my most boomer-coded football opinion is huh you lost, probably should have been better

They played for overtime against (now-)unranked opponents twice with a jillion-dollar quarterback and lost both times. I am easy to bait into getting angry about this stuff, and I am at a 0.1 on the anger scale.

part of the design is working

it's easy to get outraged by the #5 team getting left out

and it's very difficult to get up for a Miami team that threw four picks against goddamn Louisville

Dropping Alabama to No. 10 sets up the Tide to miss the Playoff if they lose to Texas A&M in the SEC title game.
10th is the last spot into the Playoff. Would that loss knock Bama back at all??

This is where I most enjoy gambling odds. To help frame a conversation.
Oklahoma got No. 8. Homefield advantage.
And still, its odds to win it all dropped.

That is a way of quantifying what some smart people think of Notre Dame right now. It's that good.

Oklahoma jumped, but know what else happened?
The Sooners' title odds went to +3000 from +2700.
Clearly Vegas thinks Notre Dame is a tough first-round draw, not to mention then Ohio State (or Indiana) would be waiting.

James Madison is cooked. It is the American champion, definitively.

Will tickets sell out tomorrow??

Will hotels be stupid expensive in all of Salt Lake City?

I need any and all advice and insight.

As a recent-ish transplant to the Twin Cities, I have to say that I was really proud to see so many real life friends and neighbors stand up, and even put their bodies on the line, for our vulnerable community members today. Makes me glad to live here and I feel lucky about the friends I’ve made.
