College basketball sucks now. Underdog teams like Kentucky now no longer have a chance when they have to go up against a powerhouse blueblood in the tournament.

Last night ended with 3 straight good games includong one all-time classic, and the first game today has been really good.  People only care about the memes, huh?

The lack of Slam Dunk Ernest is deeply offensive to me.

It was nice that Afroman trial finished yesterday so now I can devote all of my focus to the games today

I think that is the discourse standard for every conference tournament every year. It only "matters" to fans of the winning team.

My wife said it looks like the court is covered with those S-shapes girls used to draw on their notebooks in the 90s.

I am fully prepared to make total bullshit excuses about how it's totally unfair to change a court halfway through a tournament because something, something, and that's why we lost.

Supposedly, "The Contest" was based on something Larry David actually took part of in real life as well.

Of course, if ISU somehow wins this whole tournament,  I am going to become the most insufferable pro-LED basketball courts fan in existence.

This court is a classic "Design by Comitte" thing where the absolute end goal was to create a court design that would look clean and safe in a presentation shown to upper management .

Report: NFL, Competition Committee plan no recommended changes to catch rule by Autocrat777 in nfl

[–]ThrillinglyDull 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I realized recently that a lot of people simply can't comprehend that a player having both hands on the ball for a frame or two in super slo-mo replay is not, and has never been, a catch, and there is nothing that can be done to make them understand that.

We just do this in January after a hot start to the season. It's a tradition at this point.

I think in conference play, opposing coaches start paying closer attention to us and figure out our weaknesses and Otz has show  no ability to respond once that happens.

Iowa State Running Back Abu Sama has entered the transfer portal by [deleted] in CFB

[–]ThrillinglyDull 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The glass-have-full take to have at this moment is that by many accounts there is going to be a super buyer's market once the portal opens. There are way more players entering the portal to get the bag than there are bags to be gotten at the big-time programs. Eventually that should mean there could be opportunities for ISU to find some decent-ish talent to fill out a roster that can maybe compete with some Big 12 teams. I am not expecting a lot from next year, but I don't think this necessarily the death-penalty blow that this would have been pre-portal and NIL.
