There is so much wonderfulness packed into this. The world is always a few shades better when @cornershophq.bsky.social drop a new pop bop.

Jill Sobule opened for Billy Bragg in 2006. I barely remembered her name from the 90s and planned to be cynical through her 25 minute opening set. But it was so good I subsequently went to see her every time she came through town. Jill Sobule was the pleasant surprise you hope for in live music.

Deepest of gratitude to our seniors for an incredible four years and I do feel that as long as Marquette is a consistent tournament team, things are ok. But I’m unsubscribing from the “Nevada Smith Offensive Guru” train of thought. 3 months to come up with a plan B and nada. #mubb

Drove to Cleveland to see it in person. It’s a microcosm of our season since January. Here’s hoping for a revamp to the offensive approach over the next few months. Or at least someone who’s dependable from deep. #mubb

A note that this is now searchable and findable across all streaming platforms… but you can still support the artists for some kickass vintage vibes. jammydodgers.bandcamp.com/track/since-...

That was awful. But it solidified my belief that Zaide should be starting over Jop. #mubb

Artificial intelligence will kill us all. Probably me first due to the aneurysm I will get from screaming at the computer screen after Google AI posits that Kula Shaker is Aerosmith.

I know Solo Ball nights are gonna happen. There are probably Markus Howard opponents who can sympathize. But I also wonder if this layup or 3 exclusive offense for #mubb is a great idea when neither falls frequently enough. My kingdom for a midrange shooter.

Worriedly convincing myself with 13 minutes left that Kam picking up his 4th foul is a test #mubb needs and Butler is a fairly ideal team to have this happen against… and then 10 minutes later thinking Kam could’ve taken another 3 minutes off. Props to Stevie, Chase and the boys for holding steady.

Solid rebounding night for Ben Gold… conditioned him for his best reach of the evening. #mubb

Wasn’t the result I was hoping for (although having been in attendance for Georgetown and DePaul, it seemed like a result we were trending toward), but the kid gave the day 5 stars regardless. I swear I’m not trying to influence him. Honest. #mubb #wearemarquette

In the summer of 2001, Marquette randomly paired us to be roommates on the 3rd floor of O’Donnell. Nearly a quarter century later, we still hang to watch our alma mater eke out an OT win against… DePaul (?!) #mubb #relationshipsgrowthvictory

…never a doubt. #mubb #wearemarquette #morestressthanineededonatuesdaynight

Composure… #wearemarquette

Keeping the Northern Soul fires alive from Chicago in 2025…

Under the tree this morning and already 100 pages deep. Never thought I’d be so captivated by the making of the “McGear” album. The most important Macca volumes published (captivating even for diehards like me). Can’t wait for the third, @allankozinn.bsky.social. #themccartneylegacy

Stevie Mitchell just sewed up DPOY right? There can’t be a debate this year. #mubb

That Ben Gold stuff of Tonje… did I jump off the couch into a defensive stance, flip V signs at the TV and scream “BAW! F*CK OFF MATE!!!” in front of my 6 year old son? Yes. Yes I did. #mubb

Hard to overstate how exciting it is to get an acoustic demo from Edgar Jones accompanied by a note asking if we can do anything with it. Kudos to my oldest friend Michael Lux and my beautiful wife for helping breathe a little more Chicago R’n’B flavor into proceedings.

Beating a top 10 team (and my sister’s alma mater), and seeing a Marquette player notch a triple double for the first time since Dwyane Wade did it when I was a sophomore here. Decent evening. We are Marquette. #mubb

I’ve joined Bluesky and I want to say… STEVIE G.D. MITCHELL. #mubb
