Final from Atlanta ...
Pope vs. Pitino was supposed to be the story of this one. And then Jayden Quaintance made his debut. And now this looks like a totally different Kentucky basketball team.

Pope vs. Pitino was supposed to be the story. Jayden Quaintance stole the show
Kentucky’s top NBA prospect made his debut, and the Wildcats showed what they can be in a 78-66 victory over St. John’s.

This UK team, without Lowe, is really tough to watch in offense. Everything is so hard. Gonna need some luck in the 2nd half to pull this off. #BBN

It once made sense to give huge salaries to college football coaches. You couldn’t pay the players, so you paid coaches who got players.
It’s 2025. You can just pay the players now.
Why the hell are teams STILL chasing $100 million coaches when they aren’t even good at picking the right ones????

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.
Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

my favorite thing about the benoit blanc movies is that they aren't really about benoit blanc. he is not grappling with demons from his past. we are not getting flashbacks to the husband whose murder he never solved. he just shows up and does his job like mary poppins for homicides

That was a tremendous 2nd half from UK. Maybe the best defensive half of Pope’s tenure. Lowe and Mo D were huge and BG rose from the dead to be impactful. We all needed this win. I like my team. #BBN
