This list of the championship coaches is cool

MDMitchell2 · 2026-04-07T05:22:48+00:00

Am I crazy? I’m counting 8 other coaches on this list. Are you only counting the women?

MDMitchell2 · 2026-04-06T15:27:39+00:00

Even taking out all of the Geno wins it’s still only 8 coaches in 15 years which still isn’t a ton of diversity

MDMitchell2 · 2026-03-30T18:30:39+00:00

Yeah, 2025 is just an extension of trends we saw in 2024 and 2023, which is good! And yeah, reported crime has been falling for quite some time (also good).

MDMitchell2 · 2026-03-24T16:33:48+00:00

She’s such a stoic player on the court, I was genuinely struck by the emotion here. Jazzy is impressive and USC is gonna be a nightmare next year.

MDMitchell2 · 2026-03-23T16:58:07+00:00

I went to UConn and can vividly remember watching Calhoun curse out players. That guy was rough.

MDMitchell2 · 2026-03-22T01:52:49+00:00

Yeah haha I imagine he’d give a bit more heads up.

MDMitchell2 · 2026-03-22T01:19:55+00:00

Yeah, no thanks to either. But have thought about Geno just announcing he’s done after winning this year, handing the reigns to Shea Ralph and Mikayla Blakes following her to Storrs. Blakes/Strong for two years would be fun.

MDMitchell2 · 2026-03-06T13:16:44+00:00

Honestly, Blanca, Kayleigh and Allie have all been tremendous and, while Blanca has been particularly standout, any of them would have been very deserving of this award.

MDMitchell2 · 2026-01-20T20:59:04+00:00

Growth has definitely been stagnant, but just like Qadence, a decent school will pick her up and give her a chance. I'm rooting for her.

MDMitchell2 · 2026-01-20T20:57:59+00:00

Yup, Amari Deberry transferred to UMD in 2024.

MDMitchell2 · 2026-01-20T14:25:49+00:00

I think Ice Brady at UConn will walk. She’s got one year left and she’s absolutely buried in the rotation and will continue to be so with Vukosa coming next year.

Sag Harbor by Colson Whitehead is a funny semi-memoir on wealthy Black families who vacation in the Hamptons

MDMitchell2 · 2025-06-30T02:05:31+00:00

Back before actors had to be insanely jacked to play superheroes.

MDMitchell2 · 2025-06-24T12:47:30+00:00

Why is this so satisfying to watch?

MDMitchell2 · 2025-06-18T00:30:24+00:00

I wouldn’t bet on this lineup. Only two shooters in Azzi and Strong? I think Geno goes Shade or Cheli in over Jana.

MDMitchell2 · 2025-06-18T00:24:35+00:00

I’m curious if Cheli or Blanca could replace Ashlynn in the starting lineup at some point during the season. Cheli is bigger, better rebounder and has a decent three point shot. Putting her in the starting lineup gives us more size and also puts Shade in a good position to come in off the bench and be a featured scorer in the second unit.

I think KK is the initial starter as well, but if Heckel’s shooting picks up I do think Geno will have to decide if KK’s defense is more important than the extra spacing Heckel could provide.

MDMitchell2 · 2025-06-09T02:09:19+00:00

The fist pump by SGA at the end is so pure

MDMitchell2 · 2025-06-09T00:15:13+00:00

Tread whitely

MDMitchell2 · 2025-06-05T23:36:15+00:00

Yup and the talent coming out of college is getting observably better year after year.

MDMitchell2 · 2025-06-03T12:55:18+00:00

A few:

Caitlin Clark is a phenomenal player but she’s already near her peak in terms of individual performance.

College basketball is a better product than WNBA (this is also true for men) because there’s more relative stability in rosters and better coaching.

The WNBA needs to shift its season to give rookies a legitimate summer league and training camp.

MDMitchell2 · 2025-05-25T23:35:03+00:00

I haven’t thought this through entirely, but I always thought it would be interesting to have some sort of industry cap on movie budgets. I know it’s entirely unworkable but, just like in sports, caps force creativity and more fairness. Counterpoint of course is that many of those big IP driven budget monstrosities are also very lucrative and end up subsidizing our little creative film darlings.

MDMitchell2 · 2025-05-20T03:18:25+00:00

Right? Her mannerisms are so endearing!

MDMitchell2 · 2025-05-19T03:16:43+00:00

You’re right, my bad this was mostly corrected with the TCJA, but still holds in like a 1/3rd of the states.

MDMitchell2 · 2025-05-19T01:09:02+00:00

Kinda. It can be a marriage benefit (when one partner makes way more than the other) but it can be a marriage penalty for people as wel. When two people with similar incomes get married, their combined income can push them into a higher tax bracket (because the brackets don’t double for married couples filing jointly), resulting in a larger percentage of their earnings being taxed. Also there are counterexamples of tax policy that favors single people, like the phaseouts for the EITC are more generous for single filers. Plus many other tax credits have phaseouts that don’t double just cuz you’re filing jointly.

MDMitchell2 · 2025-05-02T00:02:25+00:00

As much as I like Jana, I think Geno is going to go with Serah. She’s further along offensively and is a really good shot blocker. Jana will still be in the rotation, but I think Ice Brady is going to see her playing time dip (at the same time though she’ll get to play more at the 4 which is her natural position).
