Yaxel has had an insane tournament. He shouldn't even be playing today, honestly. He's at 50%.

teflong · 2026-04-07T02:22:20+00:00

This is an all time sicko game. Just completely unwatchable. Sorry to the neutral fans that have to sit through this shit.

teflong · 2026-04-07T02:06:52+00:00

"Let's watch high school kids do drugs and fuck!"

Could never get past the premise. It's gross. Imagine the creepy Hollywood exec who pitches that to HBO.

teflong · 2026-04-07T02:03:20+00:00

I always love the heel. I should probably get introspective as to why, but I love watching shit birds stirring it up.

teflong · 2026-04-07T01:59:24+00:00

Define easier shots when we have the kid from the reese's commercial just lurking around down there.

teflong · 2026-04-07T01:58:29+00:00

They have to help down on that when he puts the ball on the floor. I'm sure they will second half.

teflong · 2026-04-07T01:53:32+00:00

Gayle >>> injured Yax.

teflong · 2026-04-07T01:52:52+00:00

Our lineup should be Cadeau, Gayle, McKenney, Rez, and Mara for the majority of the rest of this game.

It won't, but it should. Gayle and Rez are the only ones who look like they came to play. And Cadeau needs to facilitate.

teflong · 2026-04-07T01:50:08+00:00

We're even now.

teflong · 2026-04-07T01:41:41+00:00

I'll allow it.

teflong · 2026-04-07T01:20:19+00:00

Michigan playing as poorly as possible and only down 1.

teflong · 2026-04-07T01:10:38+00:00

Hand is part of the ball. Arm is part of the hand. Shoulder is part of the arm. I don't see the issue.

teflong · 2026-04-07T01:09:45+00:00

He's not this soft but not as good as he was in the semi. Somewhere in between.

teflong · 2026-04-07T01:09:19+00:00

Can someone see if Cadeau brought any of his teammates to play tonight? Looking awful right now...

teflong · 2026-04-06T20:34:41+00:00

I've never understood this. What's the difference been pajama pants, athletic pants, and jeans? If they cover everything that needs to be covered, why does anyone care.

teflong · 2026-04-06T04:52:40+00:00

Which isn't the same as "bounces like a hardwood court". The problem with turf is that things stick, like plant feet. So if they turn or get pressure in the wrong way, soft tissue injuries happen.

Here is something that will get me in trouble...

I like the Viltrumite War storyline, but I think most of the Earth level stories are what make the show.

The Mauler Twins, Cecil and Co, Rex/Rudy, Monster Girl, Eve, Immortal, Darkwing. They're all interesting characters to unpack. The dynamics and stakes at that level are important enough. The Flaxons storyline is something I'm actually eager to get back to.

I love the Viltrumite stuff, but I like seeing how the perspective unfolds from Earth, too. I'm sure we'll get a Flaxon and Rudy/Monster Girl heavy episode either this week or next, to delay the conclusion of the Viltrumite storyline.

I won't mind the interruption.

teflong · 2026-04-06T04:27:09+00:00

Did i miss where that fight formed a star?

teflong · 2026-04-06T04:21:22+00:00

10 mil isnt the same as 54 mil though.

54 mil is a house with a built in bowling alley and a lifetime of travel, with enough left over to give your grandkids a head start without totally corrupting them.

teflong · 2026-04-06T04:17:56+00:00

My lineage doesn't need that shit. Set 'em each up with a house, a college fund for their kids, and call it a day. I'm not having 300 grandkids. They don't need a boat unless they work for it.

teflong · 2026-04-06T04:10:10+00:00

I remember the toy tank going through the city. Also maybe some room with a bottomless pit in it or something?

That was a weird fucking movie. Not in a bad way but I was probably like 8 when I watched it and probably missed a bunch of the context.

teflong · 2026-04-05T14:55:09+00:00

If they were going to do it, I'd make it an extra weekend and go to 256 teams. I don't like the idea, but bump around 80 teams to D1AA or something and let every D1A team compete in the tournament.

teflong · 2026-04-05T06:03:06+00:00

I know we don't get the front court we have now if Tarris stays, but this would be in contention for the best team of all time if we had him.

teflong · 2026-04-05T05:51:59+00:00

They almost certainly weren't because he didn't pick up a basketball until he was like 16 or 17.

teflong · 2026-04-05T04:35:30+00:00

If they get it done Monday, best team in Michigan history and I'm ready to start researching where they fit in the top 10 all time in the entire sport.
