Since July 6 they have lost only 4 baseball games.

I hate how when I'm watching men's coverage, any mention of what's happening simultaneously in the women's tournament is blacked out, and vice versa. It's like each time I change the channel, I'm moving from one planet to another planet and each planet pretends like the other doesn't exist.

Related... I really wish the apparent firewall between coverage of the men's and women's tournaments would come down. I'd love to see the two tournaments treated like one event, Olympics style.

I know the current TV contracts don't make room for such a thing, but...

“States like to think that revenue they bring in from legal gambling is free $ from heaven, but it amounts to a regressive tax.... If state gov'ts want more $, they should tax people who have the ability to pay, the rich. They should not gamify a tax on the poor and pretend that it's not a tax.”

You're the best Joon. Going through the layoff fun right now! On the betting front, I highly recommend this conversation: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/e...

Feels like it's been a long time since the narrative podcasting world got good news.

Seems like a good time to mention that this jersey has lived rent free in my head for 19 years.

See, the way playoffs work, the early rounds tend to eliminate the pretenders, leading to evenly matched teams meeting in the later rounds.

This is why I did not really care that much about the Indiana and SMU of it all.

Somebody get a couple beers in Brian Kelly tonight and report back.

This was ‪@edsbs.bsky.social‬ on our show this morning...

Our chat with @edsbs.bsky.social got me thinking... w/o conference champ games, how about a +1 game for every team? Schools in the top half of conf. standings play against another top half team they've yet to play. Schools at bottom play other bottom schools. Can help even out schedule balance.

Michael Brown was shot and killled that year.

Feels like most every year since has been worse than the year prior. Maybe 2021 and/or 2022 are the one exceptions.

Living through history can be a real drag.

Feel like every time I try to load your site these days, it crashes my browser. Might be an issue with my hardware or OS but seems like it’s all the popups, etc.

Popular book. Also good to explore some of the counter arguments to it so as to stress test his advice and see how it holds up.
