    Still havent heard a good answer to this question

    Talking about home court advantage brings to mind a question I've had. The home team supplies the balls. Different brands can have a different feel, and the pressure can vary (within specs, of course). Can this give a small advantage to the home team?

    A Cheer for Bouknight

    I fondly remember being in the baseball stands and cheering for Luke Easter and Boog Powell with cries of "Luuuuuuuuuuke" and "Booooooooog". Of course, newbies would ask why we were booing our own player. Alas, with Covid restrictions and the draft, James will be gone before we can have a full...

    Bunny Statistic

    "Staggering statistic UConn has missed a ton of layups and close range shots this season. The numbers back that up. According to hoop-math.com, the Huskies are shooting 52.7 percent on shots at the rim, ranking 325 out of 347 Division I programs. That includes dunks, tip-ins and layups."...

    Kemba on NYT

    Guess I'm a little jaded because I expect this from Kemba. Earlier this season, I can't remember whom it was against, his defender fell to the floor trying to cover the step back. And I still get a thrill every time I see him do it.

    Worst restaurant experiences you have had

    Two experiences stand out: The first was at Katz's Deli in NYC. My ex found a large spider in one of her blitzes. When we showed it to the waiter, he accused us of planting it. The place is known for surely waiters, but this was over the top, and I went ballistic. And we stopped at a Mexican...

    Hurley Zoom Call 8/3

    Of course he's hedging. The kid has to show up in practice and earn his playing time just like any other guy on the team. That said, I think coach expects him to earn significant playing time, as do I.

    OT: Rat

    OT: Rat

    My dad used to put corn out for the pheasants. My job was to take care of the occasional rat it attracted. A few tips: PB is an ok bait, but raw bacon is better. Rats are suspicious. Leave trap unset until bait disappears. Spring traps are ok but should be in a confined space as they are a...

    OT: Famous Baseball Players You’ve Seen Play In Person

They are always a tough team and it will give our guys a chance to...

    OT: HuskyMedic, broken or sprained? Thanks in advance.

    In college, I stepped on a foot while driving the lane. Ankle looked like that. Infirmary sent me for an x-ray, and I was told it was a sprain. It hurt bad, and I was on crutches for a week, and it seemed like it was forever before I could walk normally. 15 years later, I turned the ankle...
