Hint: Knuckleballer….died less than a year ago….

Yeah.  I scanned the list they provided in the summary.  Cole and Wakefield were right next to each other,.  Never crossed my mind.  But, my excuse was it was late at night.  

UK fans refreshing themselves on their Hail Mary prayers.

Not good at all.  I started out by being cute and choosing some low hanging fruit on the "One Team' category.  And, then I got totally stuck on Pirates 2K Strikeouts other than Cole. Killed thousands of brain cells for 15 minutes and simple could not come up with anyone else.  

Watching the Cubs vs padres on TBS  I love Bob Costas on the mic for a baseball game.

I’d be shocked if he is a first rd pick.

Prepare to be shocked lol. 

If Edey was allowed to enter the WNBA draft, Caitlin Clark would still be the #1 pick.

They aren't going anywhere. 

I'm interpreting this to mean you don't think they will make it back to the Final Four.  Surprised to hear you say that about your favorite team.

After the first round I was 25th and finished 5th

The most important piece of information from that is you still finished behind me.

You get to rub Zach Edey's feet.

4 NL Central teams in the playoffs if the season ended today.   Everyone but the Deadbirds.

lol right on cue from you big guy. 

You being all defensive after losing on an IU board, I repeat, an IU board, is not a good look.

UConn, you are a Blue Blood

They are the best program over the last 30 years.

Not sure we didn't play UConn better. 

Tonight's version of UConn is much improved over what we saw in December.

Slipping away from the boilers. Edey looks gassed. Nobody else doing much. Uconn has so many options it's ridiculous 

.

UConn was the much better team going into the game and Purdue has played poorly.

Now Purdue makes its move!

You will always have this.

I guess size does matter  

So, you're bragging about your tiny sliver?

Manual exposure with a self 

You really should not do that in public.

You need to download an app called SolarSnap, then use some kind of lens over the top of your camera lens.  The normal eclipse glasses will work.  Or I used a #11 welding goggles lens. 
 

This is the view from one block in from the riverfront, downtown Cincinnati:

 

99.4% totality. 

Your 99.4% sliver looks smaller than my supposed 99.6 percent sliver.

It's an odd, almost eerie kind of darkness.  Almost looks like you're looking at the world through a sepia filter.  And I noticed about a 5 degree temperature change when it passed through almost-totality.

Temperature change definitely and it got breezy here about 15 minutes before, which was good because it cleared the clouds out.

Edit:  was not with my son in totality.  Stuck working from home at 99%.

Try as I may and try as I might, can not get this phone camera to take pictures all of the AI wants to blend everything together to create what it thinks is a good picture?🤮

My son just sent me a picture from totality zone.  It's amazing, but he said the picture doesnt even do it justice.

Starting to cloud up at the Fouls homestead.  Not good.

Scheduled to get 99.6% at my house.  Proballbly slightly better since I'm a little north of town.

Wife and son are taking some back roads to get into some of the lengthier totality time frames. 

Daughter has remote learning from school today, but has to work after.  I has to work th his weekend on a system upgrade, so couldn't very well take the day off in case things go awry.

I am working from home today at least.

Dislike UK with the best of them, but I wouldn't be going after their girls.  Just go to Keeneland this past weekend.  

So,  they look like horses?
