Dusty May clearly knows that the longer the game goes and the more possessions we get, the more the game will tip in Michigan’s favor. And that is a special treat.

It’s -9 degrees. Downtown Minneapolis is packed for the anti-ICE rally and the crowd keeps growing

There's one foolproof way to gauge whether someone is a millennial or a zoomer: Ask them how they learned the difference between Iceland and Greenland. If the answer is from D2: The Mighty Ducks, you're talking to a millennial. Otherwise, zoomer.

I’m sorry I’m sure this is a swell guy but the national championship has gotta do better than the winner of the 23rd season of American Idol.

Not that it's important in any way and not that I notice, but the defensive coordinator -- who started above me in high school at defensive back when I was a senior and he was a junior and who also happened to be the son of North Dakota State's head football coach at the time -- is also out.

I won't eat things that explode in my mouth and this scene is more traumatic to me than any horror movie.

As it does every year, the music in the ski shop at Boyne remains targeted at me and therefore undefeated.

<My deathbed> I text End2End to the 38,586th phone number in my lifetime to unsubscribe from the list. I refuse to chip in just $5 for the veteran gyrocopter pilot running for office in Montana. I set my phone down for the final time in my life. Enlightenment approaches. *BuzzBuzz*

I saw Dead and Co just last year at Sphere. Went through a little Grateful Dead phase as a I prepped for the show. I am probably one of the last people on Earth to attempt to “get into” Grateful Dead, and it was actually quite rewarding. It was an honor to catch him at the end.

(2019) THE OLYMPICS: OK Italy, we're giving you 2026, can you pull it off? ITALY: Yes, we just have to build one arena, very easy, the easiest of any Olympics (2026) THE OLYMPICS: OK we're here! how is that one arena looking? ITALY: (sitting at a cafe, reading a newspaper) mi scusi????

Lol oops.

The best thing about Oregon games on TV is their marching band is still hammering out the closing fanfare of Phantom Menace on random first downs. And that arrangement bangs. I will be so sad if they ever cycle it out.

The Indiana hype and excitement is just too great. Gonna be so anticlimactic when Oregon wins this game.

I kind of like the Chat GPT commercials even though I virulently hate the Chat GPT product. The dichotomy makes me feel weird.

I welcome the upcoming anointment of our Quad God with open arms.

Here’s hoping that’s the only one this year.

The way the conference is currently set up and the way travel is arranged, I am convinced that a west coast team will never win a Big Ten regular season championship.

There's a Boise State/San Diego State game on right now that is on pure drugs. Boise came from down more than 20, then SDSU came back from 6 points in 20 seconds in overtime, and now it's in double OT

President says we're gonna run Venezuela until a transition can be made, and then immediately transitions into how poorly they run their oil industry. I'm sure those two things aren't related in any way, shape or form.

The Michigan/Nebraska game is a Tuesday Peacock, which is pure Greek comedy.

It’s so weird to watch a close basketball game now. I just assume something must be wrong with them if they aren’t winning by 30 points.

One of the best things about having a top 5 basketball team is how many hilarious things happen to the teams you dismember.

Each score from here on out will make the takes hotter.

I have never disliked a commercial more than the John Travolta Santa Grease Lightning commercial. It's not even Christmas anymore. It needs to die a quick but painful death three days ago.

That's a shame

The London New Year’s fireworks are always straight fire

The sports books still have not properly valued Michigan which is really hard to do for a brand name ranked in the top 2. They’ve gotta be getting killed on Michigan games this year.

When I covered the Tommy Amaker teams, I used to mentally track if they scored more than 20 points in a half. Sometimes they didn’t.

Michigan got to the under 16 timeout of the second half on a 16-1 run. Lol this team is not real.

For those who can’t see the UM game because it’s BTN+, I will sum it up: McNeese is clearly a chaos team that presses full court and double teams constantly, but the greatest NCAA team ever assembled is impervious to chaos, so McNeese has 15 first half fouls.

Some people watch Christmas movies while they wrap presents. I watch Troy. Which is also about religion sort of.

Before any of you Michigan basketball fans go to bed, just be aware that Duke has already lost tonight and SDSU of all teams is currently beating Arizona in the second half.

actually the "naughty list" and "nice list" bit is good..

Who is this Alabama coach? He should clearly not be at Alabama. Terrible fit. He should go somewhere else.

I resolve in the new year to try and post more about short track speed skating crashes and downhill skiing times in an effort to make this pack.

You can feel this development if you go to any sporting events, every team is pushing luxury packages for a few thousand fans and trying to make the other 50,000 people in the stadium feel left out

The South doesn't understand how many Big Ten/Pac-12 fans still feel this way.

I heard Brian Kelly is available and has Michigan connections

John Harbaugh come on down, and also is that Bryce Underwood contract locked in? Like really locked in? Like really really locked in?

Excuse me. I'm trying to move onto basketball season over here. Basketball school, remember?

I honestly don't have the basketball mind to understand what's happening. Every rebound has 3 Wolverines around it to one opponent. Every 3 is wide open. Every dunk is down an empty lane. Why doesn't every team run this offense? Someone make it make sense.

Gonna start brushing up on the 1990 UNLV Rebels team so I can start figuring out how this Michigan team is better than them.

I'm in favor of this because it means, for another brief moment, there are still professional athletes older than me.

New York City went 12 days without a murder in November / December. That's tied for the longest stretch in history, according to the NYPD. As someone who was here when there were 6+ murders per day in this town, it continues to amaze me how safe the place is.

It appears Michigan’s Vegas trip was not a fluky streak and they are indeed the greatest college basketball team ever assembled.

Catch up America. My survey of 10-year old boys (my son) says that Haaland has already been the big thing for about 2 years.

There is so much Jeff Buckley material this week amidst his documentary on HBO. This is as much as I’ve immersed myself in him since I discovered him in the 2000’s. It makes me so happy and sad all at once.

God the Jeff Buckley documentary fucking crushed me.

I’m not saying the situation is irredeemable but if Indiana moves on from Darian DeVries after this year you have to wonder if they give Dusty May a call. Former IU manager.
