This was another scene and the first one I thought of when TMZ reported it first.

This scene and movie cracks me up.

Hadn't seen this topic posted yet but wow what a truly special lady. I was excited for the People Magazine party she would've had.

Who is going to be the Armaan Franklin or Juwan Morgan that shoots lights out?

Good thing this is the last of this event. I wouldn't count out Notre Dame based on what I saw in the UK game.

Jess Settles throwing sone shade at UK for not putting us back on their schedule. 

I was pacing up and down the hallway of my parents house I was a nervous wreck.

OT reminds me of the Lauren Spier case I still think the guys she was with that night know what happened to her.

Are we sure Carrot Top or Ethan Happ aren't still around with extra eligibility we don't know about?

I had to go look up to see who was on the 1998 team when we last beat them at their place.

This game scares me 

1. would not want to play Auburn right now

2. really good game in Vegas last night

They could've just stuck the volleyball either on the app or the alternate channel.

Free throws free throws you can't be missing those!

The first game I have tickets for reasonable time I just hate the late 9:00  games during the week. I'll be interested to see how much different we look under Woodson compared to the last three seasons. 

I'm excited to see what they can do this year.

Cubs will need some help.

1980s

 

AAU basketball gained popularity in the 1980s when Sonny Vaccaro and Phil Knight came together with the goal of spreading the youth basketball movement. By signing AAU coaches and college coaches to shoe contracts, they ensured specific AAU programs and major basketball programs would be wearing their shoes.

 

It was a two edged sword....it vastly improved the skill of the college athlete but it also was the beginning of a TON of issues as well. I'm not saying it is completely bad thing...and there has been player/coach issues since sports began...but I think a lot points back to this. Don't get me wrong, I am all for individuals rights but when the single player becomes more important then the team...well there is going to be problems. And in AAU basketball it is all about the individual...promoting oneself...and those ideals run head on against what a really good college coach is going to teach and preach for a successful TEAM. Most kids get it...and come around to it...and you see others that don't. I think you see the result of some selfish individuals there in Madison. It's why the LEO message with the football team resinates so strongly....brings unity, pride in team, and success on the field and in their lives. What you see in Madison....is certainly not LEO.

Good 30 for 30 on Knight and Vaccaro.

I’ll try to respond to this without getting too much onto the edge of what the mods think is political.

We are in the era of hypersensitivity to anything that doesn’t make people feel warm and fuzzy. The generation of kids in question is heart and soul in the middle of many of the “movements “ our society finds itself trying to navigate through. The so-called “adversity “ these guys think they are dealing with is laughable as compared to the conditions faced by some of the previous generations. We live in a time where too many young people have been coddled and pandered to. The sense of entitlement here is fair evidence of this.

God forbid that these guys take personal responsibility for their futures and stop whining that they aren’t being supported. 
 

I lived in the Madison area long enough to know that there is absolutely a part of the population who is in the corner of the players and staunchly backs the “participation ribbon “ mentality. In a progressive city like this, these players have a platform that wouldn’t play as well in some other places.

I completely agree with this post the world isn't all that it's cracked up to be. Some of these kids depending on socioeconomic status probably have never had to work a day in their life my parents would never let me get away with any of it.

He must not have been getting as many of his flops called as fouls as he did 6 years ago. 

Lucky he wasn't playing for Duke because he would get trashed like no tomorrow.

Okay Jim Boeheim your next.

You know when you know.

AstraZeneca was never able to get their vaccine off the ground.
