This is fun, Padres. Iโ€™m having fun.

I think Brad Brownell is a solid coach, but I don't see him as someone Indiana fans would be excited about. He hasn't won a conference title since 2007 and has spent most of his time at Clemson getting between 17-20 wins a year.

Doesn't scream championship coach to me. #iubb

I would not be shocked if Indiana misses the tournament now. They're on the cut line in most projections and this has been an awful showing. #iubb

Considering this is essentially a home game, it's severely disappointing that Indiana showed up like this. Just a complete no-show against a very beatable team. #iubb

Just some really bad, empty possessions from Indiana. Opportunities are there and they keep coming up short. #iubb

Whoever the next coach at Indiana is, please, I'm begging you, banish long 2-pointers from the program. #iubb

While I appreciate your dedication, save it for later and donโ€™t subject other people to it.

Iโ€™ve gotten to the point where Iโ€™m not even looking at the stock market every day.

Summary: itโ€™s bad and is only getting worse. Need to tune out for a bit.

I donโ€™t think so. They canโ€™t reasonably do that since so many teams had injuries as well. Would create a mess.

Sure seems like we have a lot of new friends on Bluesky today. If you're looking for some good NBA, WNBA, and some college basketball accounts to follow, here's something to get you going. Just click on the starter pack and follow one, follow lots, or follow all. go.bsky.app/FGmgtea

Social Security Workers Arenโ€™t Allowed to Read This Story New internet restrictions at the embattled SSA have cut off access to WIRED, along with other โ€œgeneral newsโ€ websites like The Washington Post and The New York Times.

NEW: WIRED got IP blocked by the Social Security Administration, among other outlets covering Musk's takeover.

Federal workers are now "prohibited" from accessing our reporting on "government-furnished equipment."

WaPo, NYT, and MSNBC are likewise banned, sources confirm.

Indiana has a ton of resources and an incredible opportunity to turn its basketball program around with its next hire. Aim high and donโ€™t settle this time. The money is there. #iubb

I firmly believe someone will finally get it right with Indiana basketball. Someone will figure this thing out and return the program to glory.

When that happens, itโ€™ll be all the more meaningful because of the hard times. #iubb

Occupying land in the Middle East has never gone badly for the U.S. before, so why notโ€ฆ?

Your program is what it does, not its potential.

Indiana can't execute in the clutch, gets blown out regularly, and loses games it shouldn't.

Time for a change. #iubb

The Bears have a terrible offensive line and a mobile quarterback and decided to run straight ahead on fourth and short.

This is why they're the Bears.

Sam Darnold is a different quarterback this year. It's amazing what good coaching, a smart scheme, and a few weapons can do.

Donโ€™t know but Iโ€™d assume so. Cignetti followed him on social media.

Hoosiers play Providence today at 11:00 a.m. in the 7th-place game of the Battle 4 Atlantis.

(Wonder what @rumorsandrants.bsky.social thinks of that tip time ... )

No live postgame show immediately after game, but we're working to plan a Battle 4 Atlantis recap show for later today.

I certainly hope you have better things to do the day before Thanksgiving than linger on this game, but in case you don't, here is the postgame show link:
