Amazing how much better NBA *and* NHL broadcasts are so much better on TNT/TBS than ESPN.
Not just studio shows, which is obvious, but the game production, too.

Rain started coming down in sheets and still he mowed.
Lghtning increased to once every 6-8 seconds and still he mowed.
Finally, a blinding flash from a bolt near us chased him inside.
I get the Midwest mentality, but my 19+ years in Florida taught me lightning, like Father Time, is undefeated. Wow

Scott Andera @sanderaSTLProps to the neighbor who has waited until rain started falling (and beginning to intensify) with somewhat distant thunder audible to begin mowing his lawn.
Maybe he can get our backyard while he's at it. Needs to be cut, but ... you know ... lightning and all.02:35 PM - May 08, 2024![Picture]()

35 games in and the Triple-A level White Sox have yet to enter ANY game as a favorite, ahead of only the Rockies, who have been underdogs in all 34 games. Those two meet June 28-30 in Chicago in a series that may spark a lawsuit for MLB trademark infringement. Woooooof.

Overtime for Game 7 in a #StanleyCup playoff series?
Hell.
Yes.
Especially because both teams are trying to avoid inevitble mocking that would come with a loss.
Losing 3-1 series leads in back-to-back years or extending a Game 7 losing streak to roughly 47?

Really enjoying the featured groups stream on the #Masters website. Not only no ads, but also a really entertaining commentary trio that actually (gasp!) shows some of their personality, pokes some fun at each other and doesn't sound like a church sermon (see also CBS telecast).

Just watched the final episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm.
I liked a lot of other episodes better, but it was good -- and a perfectly Curb way to end the series.

Kind of a bummer the NCAA tournament is coming to an end, but looking forward to not seeing the same 5 ads every other break, especially that "don't let me go" ad. So, Apple is bragging about data space by pointing out you can keep all the horrendous out-of-focus pics on your phone? wut

The first half of the South Carolina-Iowa title game has not disappointed. Great play on both ends of the floor by both teams, a high pace, tight game. Caitlin Clark is having a strong game, though not suprised South Carolina's up -- for now.
Hope the second half is more of the same.

I like SVP, but a foul in the first quarter is a foul with 3.9 seconds left. Edwards stuck her elbow out on the screen. That's a foul.
I HATE the argument that fouls shouldn't be called in the final moments. The rules aren't different based on how much time is left.

WOW. Tremendous Final Four game between Iowa and UConn.
GREAT defense on both Paige Bueckers and Caitlin Clark.
Think Iowa *can* take the title, but think South Carolina will cap an undefeated season.
Either way, should be a helluva final on Sunday.

Kate Martin established legal guarding position and is allowed to move any direction but forward, so the fault of contact is on the offensive player. Sorry, ESPN announcers, but the 5th foul on Angel Reese was not questionable.

I really like watching LSU's players and the way they play, but watching Kim Mulkey sulk and moan because she's on the losing end is a damned delight.
Too bad she's such a loathsome figure, because the players are fun to watch.

Nothing like getting ... ((takes a few seconds to count again)) ... *22* letters from the same roofing company on the same day about possible damage after a hail storm hit a couple of weeks ago. 🤣 Hey, better this than getting 22 visits to the house. #HailYes

Been waiting for almost an hour to see highlights of Yale-Auburn or Colorado-Florida on one of the four channels, which is annoying.
But catching Kenny Smith's outstanding Lil Jon-esque "YAAAY-ULL!" is still making me laugh out loud. Especially great because Barkley's right there having to eat it.

I thought Kentucky was overrated going into the tourney, but didn't think they'd have this much trouble in the opener.
Holy 3-balls, Oakland!

I hate that I love this push alert from the AP.
So bad it's good. Break out the slow clap.

The dunk contest has been BAD the past 5-8 years, and the NBA keeps it on life support, but when you're pulling from the G League and a rookie not particularly known for his dunks among the 4 competitors ...

All props to Mahomes and Reid, but let's not forget how big a play Chris Jones made to end the Niners' final drive.
Whether the Chiefs have a chance at a 3rd straight title will hinge largely on whether they can bring back Jones. He's that important.

I do want to hear Andy Reid, Patrick Mahomes, Chris Jones (what a play on 3rd & 4) and whatever insanity comes from Travis Kelce, but do not want to have to listen to Chiefs ownership first.
10:53 PM - Feb 11, 2024
Holy hell, what a call. Mecole Hardman? Hats off to Mahomes and the Chiefs. Wow.
10:47 PM - Feb 11, 2024
Mahomes is unbelievable in pressure situations, even with this cast of WRs.
10:45 PM - Feb 11, 2024
Giant play by Chris Jones breaking through the line on 3rd & 4 at the 6 to force an incomplete pass, especially at the end of a 7-minute drive. Gives KC a great chance to match the FG or win it.
10:36 PM - Feb 11, 2024
Also, the missed XP kick has not only led to OT, but also has put the over back into play, especially if both teams score on their first possessions.
10:22 PM - Feb 11, 2024
Wow. One missed PAT kick basically sends us to OT in the Super Bowl.
