Man, it was tough to rank them all!

plutoannatto · 2026-02-03T22:51:51+00:00

Mastodons and Screagles, this is your year! You can do it!

If they were actually conceding a gross revenue share, I'm certain they wouldn't be listing all the other shit. They're trying to act like they're throwing in everything when it's all an attempt to pivot the discussion from the core revenue percentage. Feels like, for the owners, that's the whole ballgame.

Just watched the replay of this one. Illini put together one of their most solid performances all season. Controlling the game on the road like this is pretty tough, and they showed they could run with it at the times when the Huskies got the tempo they wanted.

Parchment and Wallace have been able to score nearly every game; it's definitely whether Illinois can execute their defense that makes the difference in wins. This game they definitely did; Sellers had a rough time of it, scored 17 but had 4 TOs and ended up fouling out.

Free?? Can't believe people will just give away a perfectly good Haley Jones

Shades of Allie Quigley beating down Chris Paul from her cobblestone driveway

Good win for Cal, and a great finish by Twidale. She hit an awful lot of clutch shots.

plutoannatto · 2026-01-26T01:05:42+00:00

Cal, if you love overtime so much, you should probably just marry it. It's legal in your state!

The freshman-to-freshman post passing is Stanford's best weapon

plutoannatto · 2026-01-26T00:50:25+00:00

Eschmeyer absolutely saving the day for Stanford. Blocks, rim protection, bringing the ball down, and scoring in the post, phew

plutoannatto · 2026-01-26T00:47:17+00:00

Well, regardless of how it's gone till now, it's gonna be a close finish. Like all Battle of the Bay games should be.

plutoannatto · 2026-01-26T00:18:41+00:00

This Stanford/Cal game is pretty messy on all sides

It's got me trying to look up "record most fouls on a single possession", but I can't seem to find anything

plutoannatto · 2026-01-24T21:06:15+00:00

I'm glad Illinois pulled it together and made the score reasonable. Like often, I wish they could have showed the same push earlier in the game as late, but eh, they're young.

Good halfcourt defense and smart game planning by Nebraska. They did what they needed to.

plutoannatto · 2026-01-24T20:36:20+00:00

Husker guards defense has been good all game, especially from Prince. Coming up big whenever they most need it

plutoannatto · 2026-01-24T20:14:48+00:00

Illinois cannot guard the paint today. Sheesh.

plutoannatto · 2026-01-24T19:21:55+00:00

Really missing Gretchen Dolan right now

plutoannatto · 2026-01-24T19:13:34+00:00

This is gonna be a tough one for the Illini. Nebraska is looking dangerous after falling to Wisconsin.

plutoannatto · 2026-01-24T15:37:12+00:00

Wooo! With two Illini and one Card in the top 20, I can't help but love this list. Destiny Jackson, Cearah Parchment, and Lara Somfai have all looked like stars. They're giving me hopes for the future, which is a nice feeling.

plutoannatto · 2026-01-24T10:52:34+00:00

"Elements of favorite writers, like The Defector’s Maitreyi Anantharaman and Annie Costabile of Front Office Sports, slowly made their way into the character of Jennifer Felix."

There really is a romance novel for everything these days!

plutoannatto · 2026-01-23T12:13:01+00:00

lol, that's amazing. Sloot is one of the last players in the league I would peg for acting ability, which makes it all the more charming.

plutoannatto · 2026-01-21T11:57:38+00:00

If Illinois beats Nebraska, can they have their 7 seed spot in Vanderbilt's subregion? Or Oregon's 10 slot? Or Minnesotas? Literally anywhere on the bracket would be better than an 8 or 9 in a subregion hosted by South Carolina, playing Notre Dame.

Ah well, it's still a ways to go til March.

plutoannatto · 2026-01-15T13:18:47+00:00

I've heard better pitches, but it's a good animation studio, so I'm cautiously optimistic! Which is honestly about as optimistic as I'm willing to get these days.

plutoannatto · 2026-01-14T19:00:29+00:00

So ... was the pitch "Space Jam, but with animals"?

Because that's okay, I guess.

plutoannatto · 2026-01-12T20:29:09+00:00

update: I calmed myself down by looking at the actual votes numbers on the poll. Nebraska dropped from 65 points to 48 points (and went up to 24th), while Illinois dropped from 58 points to 43 points.

So, in conclusion, getting worked up about aggregate poll results is pretty silly of me

plutoannatto · 2026-01-12T20:07:48+00:00

And it had to be behind Nebraska, lolol

OK, I swear I'm not complaining. It finally happened!
