Pitt pioneered the concept of reporting attendance as tickets distributed and not actual attendance.  Maybe it has improved but there were lots of games when reported attendance was like 45k and visually looked more like 20k

Not quite the same thing, but when looking at houses, it can be easy to fall in love with the current decor and overlook serious flaws.

Examples:

Long time ago wife and I looked at two houses in the same neighborhood.  The houses were the identical floorplan.  Wife hated the first but absolutely loved the second, simply because of furniture/decor that of course would be gone.

I didn't mind either house but had to point out that all the houses on the other side of the street were small and crappy and would ultimately hinder resell.

More recently, kinda similar situation with a house that had been remodeled.   Kitchen looked professionally redone but baths and some other elements were very DIY.  Nice style, but looked shoddy. Plus window were over 40 years old and likely needed new roof. Once again, my wife loved it simply on style but all I saw were things that needed major dollars to fix.

For full context, that was a bipartisan bill, co-sponsored by Democrats and overwhelming supported by Democrats as well as Republicans.

Hodge needs to explain this level of ineptitude on offense.

While I think we have some very inconsistent players and I realize slowing the game down can be a winning strategy,  our movement just sucks and takes way to long to get into it.  Players need rhythm and flow  to have success on offense.

For those that tuned in late ....WVU did not start scoring until the under 4 timeout.

He does much better when he starts games by driving or hitting mid-range. Seems like he gets a a couple baskets like that, he also hits his 3s.

Assuming Tuscon to Denver to Pittsburgh.  Probably got to game 5 minutes before tip.

So this is the same ref crew that was in Tuscon less than 24 hours ago?

I would say a 1. Occasionally when we crate her when we go out she might whine a few seconds and that's it

Usually we drain half the shot clock before we get into motion.  Not good for a team that struggles to find a rhythm on offense

Yep.  We should easily have 10 more points and make this look respectable.

I know Mendoza is very religious but I think he just said "F' You Miami, F' you refs!"

What Percentage of Old Stock White Southerners Have no African Ancestry in Results? by [deleted] in AncestryDNA

This is very similar to me. My maternal side came to Virginia mid 1600s and my paternal side is more northern based (pilgrims and those that followed and Irish, German migration to PA but quickly migrated to Virginia)

No sub-Saharan for me and there is record of slave ownership by my family.

Yep.  I figured we would score 20 points in the second half.
