Lenny Wilkens My favorite player growing up, then somehow a friend later in life. His foundation looked after kids who needed a little help. Classy and kind and kept his Brooklyn accent. 3xHOF…coach of ‘79 Sonics title team. A great and loving man. (Photo: Mill Creek Sports)

Seeing Nancy Leonard sitting behind Rick Carlisle tonight fills my heart with love. The Pacers wouldn’t exist without the fundraising telethon she conceived in 1976. Slick Leonard’s widow looks great at 93.

The trump administration tried to erase Jackie Robinson. In response, the Los Angeles Dodgers visited trump at the White House, laughed in appreciation of his mangled speech (especially Kershaw) and gave him a jersey. Tonight the Dodgers will say they are honoring Jackie Robinson.

The @mariners.com have still got their share of problems but the start Jorge Polanco is off to is worth noting.

Duke gonna be living this one down for a long time. Wow. What a collapse.

“Why don’t you and Groz do a podcast? We do, and starting Monday it gets bigger! Thanks @pucksports.bsky.social ! youtu.be/dH8KFtuvzgU

I worked in the same building as Bob Rivers for a few years at the end of my career & I remember a huge positive aura and energy that came out of their studio every day. Their show had a massive audience and big success. Farewell to a legend.

Most people will focus on David Johansen’s music career and it was awesome to be sure. But don’t forget his performance as Looney in one of the most underrated comedies of all-time, Let It Ride. “I’m sure glad I didn’t bet. I woulda had a heart attack.”

Pretty solid night of entertainment in tap.

This is great news.

I really enjoyed @mikesilver.bsky.social’s latest book which takes a deeeeep dive into the obsessive, competitive, hyper-tense world of NFL coaches. Nice way to pass the time until Super Sunday.

An ad campaign where the Manning brothers compete against each other? Wow, Madison Ave. THAT’S an original idea.

The NFL is more fun with Pete Carroll.

Two Seattle radio guys hanging out with a big hockey guy at Monday’s @seattlekraken.com game.

If you’re of a certain age you remember Bob Uecker’s numerous appearances with Johnny Carson. Here’s something I didn’t know. It was New Orleans band leader Al Hirt who told Carson to book Uecker the first time. RIP to a baseball legend.

Tom Brady seems pretty intent on reminding us that this is playoff football.

The Chargers were 2.5 point favorites and lost by 20. That’s the kind of result that gets me anticipating how good their 2025 WYTS by @drewmagary.bsky.social will be.

A win is a win in the NFL so good job @seahawksofficial.com. But that last drive was coaching malpractice by the @chicagobearsnews.bsky.social. Just brutal.

Sorry, Lane Kiffin: Indiana earned a Playoff spot. SEC teams that got left out did not

“I’m all for a quiet life. I just didn’t get one.” Happy 81st to a legend.

What a complete win. Next two weeks will be fun.

The main crew is in a studio, Nick Saban is in his rec room, and Herby, apparently, is in the Death Star.

Oregon and Penn St giving the Big Ten title game a real “Pac 12 after dark” feeling.

Hey @pucksports.bsky.social - someone has finally had enough of your behavior.

Nothing matches the excitement of dialing up a classic Big Ten hoops matchup on the @bigtennetwork.bsky.social!
