An evergreen post

Maria Conde is the third player in #WNBA history to debut seven seasons after they were drafted, following Marion Jones (drafted 2003, debuted 2010) and Shey Peddy (drafted 2012, debuted 2019)

These AI phone calls are funny. I just had a doctor's office remind me to bring my "Photo Idaho" to my appointment.

40 players have made their #WNBA debut in the first three days of the season. Will this be the first 50 debut season since 2001?

11 players total made their WNBA debuts in last night's Mystics/Tempo game, the most in a single WNBA game since the 1999 season, when the league had a large influx of players entering from the ABL, which had recently folded.

Karlie Samuelson and Teja Oblak are older than Fire head coach Alex Sarama. As @acrossthetimeline.com was surely about to tell us, there have been 11 previous occasions when a player was older than her head coach...

I expect the Merc to screw around with their Media Day pictures. It's their thing. I don't need more teams joining in.

There are so many good choices. Chopping Mall, Clan of the Cave Bear, Solarbabies, Deadly Friend, but I have to go with Rad. Rad is so overlooked.

Three Amigos, with Martin Short, Steve Martin and Selena Gomez but otherwise the same concept.

I am opposed to people being shot

Looks like Dallas is the problem child that doesn't want to show us their camp roster #WNBA

The Storm have signed Jaelyn Brown and Jaylyn Brown. That's not going to be confusing at all.

Posted draft day interviews on my site pilight.xyz

If you're a believer in the theory that the strength of a draft is correlated to the number of Aries selected, then this is the worst draft in WNBA history

Here's funny thing: My men's Role Reversal bracket, in which I picked a men's bracket based on women's NET, has UConn over Michigan in the finals. The women's Role Reversal, where I pick a women's bracket based on men's NET, had Duke over Iowa State and crapped out in the E8.

@richardcohen.bsky.social Herhoopstats is showing 403 Forbidden for me, and Chrome asks if I want in Danish for some reason.

People are condemning the president for being crude about Robert Mueller's death, but nobody worth listening to is disagreeing with his assessment of Mueller.

The reported #WNBA CBA numbers are less stratified than I expected. I figured a salary cap around $9M with a supermax between $3M and $4M.

#WCBB seeds by AP Poll, this year and historically

Unusual for the final group to both be out of contention on the 17th hole #PGA

Seth Green killed an industry in a way that @youknowlydia.bsky.social finds hilarious. It was an industry that needed to die so we made her article FREE. 1900hotdog.com/2026/03/nerd...

@richardcohen.bsky.social Am I correct that the median salary for a WNBA head coach is somewhere around $450k-$500k?

Biathlon would never get approved to be added the the #Olympics today. It is a very one continent sport.

I lost my #SuperBowl prop bet in the first quarter, but the Seahawks win means we're at 19 years since a team won the NFL championship with a QB they drafted in the top five. Overdrafting a QB is NOT the way to win!

#Jeopardy still refuses to tell us what kind of engineer Scott is. My mother has decided her drives a train for a living and I'm starting to think she might be right.

The Rams should have gone for two when they scored to make it 26-31. If they made it they could have tied with a FG instead of being forced to go for it on 4th & 5 or only needed FG range at the end. That was an error by McVay.

I wanted Denver to hit that FG. Overtime might have never ended.

Glad Ashley won on #Jeopardy but those were some rugged clues

I was in high school when ICE came into existence. I remember it happening. Anyone my age or older can remember a time before ICE, and it really wasn’t that different! It’s not a radical policy proposal because the department didn’t really change policy, just created a new culture of cruelty.

Oh Stella! No. #Jeopardy

STELLA, NO!!! #Jeopardy

Oh, Stella, why were you betting big there? You had the match in hand and blew it with a reckless wager. Even a conservative number in FJ would have pulled it out, but you overdid it again. #Jeopardy

Philly should have kicked a field goal instead of calling timeout.

That is way too obscure for final #Jeopardy Most of us aren't New Yorkers

Watching a Twitch streamer makes me realize how old and out of touch I am

Wrote my first draft of protectees so long ago that I have to dig to find it. Will wait for official rules to publish. I love that our contracts database has made stuff like this viable. As one of few people who wrote a Dream mock expansion draft in 2008, there was so much guesswork involved. #WNBA

All these #WNBA draft previews are assuming the new CBA isn't changing the minimum age. Juju Watkins will be the #1 pick in the 2026 draft.

The Social Security Website doesn't understand what "I don't have a smart phone" means

Watkins is too hurt to play for USC but not too hurt to try out for Team USA. Yeah, she's done with college ball.

Looks like the board is gone now too.

RIP Mr. Tomato Head

am reminded of the old joke: what did James Watson discover? Rosalind Franklin’s notes.

It is still my contention that the lottery teams should draft in order of who least recently had the #1 pick. For this year... 1 Chicago: Never 2 Washington: 1999 3 Minnesota: 2011 4 Seattle: 2016 5 Dallas: 2025

A few weeks ago I thought the #Falcons might do something this season. I should have known better.

The champs I like never last. #Jeopardy

Ah well, I liked Allegra. #Jeopardy

Believable or not, the story is posted. archiveofourown.org/works/72392501

A passenger elevator that's temporarily being used as a service elevator and opens on a loading dock. Believable?

without voicing an opinion on the new Swift album, of course it can

I knew as soon as I saw the category that I had no shot at that Final #Jeopardy
