    Sanogo Gets His First NBA Double Double

    I've decided to call this a triple-double. 10 OREB, 10 DREB, 22 PTS.

    Purdue’s defense

    LOL. UCONN's offense asks all 5 players on defense to make an extraordinary number of consecutive correct decisions in 30 seconds. Easy to pick out 1 bad one on each possession.

    Alabama Post Game Thread

    Alabama was competitive for 27 minutes, then got outscored 30-14. Congratulations, Alabama. Honestly, St. John's played us tougher. Twice.

    AD David Benedict candidate at ASU for Athletic Director Job

    The UConn AD is an exceptional opportunity, we'll have no problem finding an exceptional replacement. Good luck, Dave. (Tempe had 30 consecutive days over 110 last year, 54 total.)

    Bradley Airport Parking

    If the garage is full, (it is the holidays) the next most efficient lot in my mind is Express Lot #1, you know, for efficiency. Enter the terminal at the long narrow hallway off the NW corner of the Sheraton Hotel. Then Park & Walk Lot #2.

    Haven't beaten a top team

    Sounds to me like you waste your time listening to podcasts. There are better ones to waste your time with.

    Bradley Airport Parking

    Efficiency means parking in the garage adjacent to the terminal. Very easy short walk to check-in and gates.

    NCAA proposing new college athletics subdivision rooted in direct athlete compensation

    The NBA and the NFL have to fund this as well. They are the direct beneficiaries of the investment public schools are making in athletics.

    Beer

    In light of the recent lawsuit filed by the single minority shareholder (who feels as though the majority owners are enriching themselves rather than paying him) against Tree House Brewing, I thought it's time to ask a question that has been on my mind for several months. Has Tree House jumped...

    Colorado

    I think you're trying to get me to like Coach Prime. That was the most believable thing I ever heard him say. (Though without hearing the question, we don't really know the context...I suspect the question had something to do with a kid decommitting) It's funny though, that the guy who...

    Switching From Verizon Wireless

    Starting with the premise that all cell phone networks suck, I might me looking to switch from my provider for the last 25 years, Verizon to T-Mobile. I never considered switching in the past because I've found Verizon's coverage to be excellent. I value that highly. I imagine the other...

    Colorado

    So your opinion is the pendulum is still swinging positive for the Buffs? I have a suspicion we've seen the best there is from Coach Prime.

    OT: Are You Looking to Adopt a Husky Dog?

    My girl Maya (Moore) is pretty much a cat in a dog's body. I encourage husky adoption!

    Camera suggestion for newbie

    I agree with everything jleves said. I took two classes to help me learn because I confuse easily...One at Manchester Community College and one a the Vernon Region Adult Based Education (VRABE...essentially, evening classes at Rockville High School). Classes met once/week for like 2 or 3...

    Your favorite cooking method to eat a turkey

    Pit Boss at Lowes has an excellent entry level smoker. I have this one, it does a great job and it is very easy to use. As you get ready to smoke your first brisket or pork shoulder, remember you're not cooking a quality piece of meat. You're not cooking a filet mignon. You're taking a...

    How to start fixing the portal with one simple rule.

    Have we identified what the problem is with the portal? What is the problem we're trying to fix?

    How to start fixing the portal with one simple rule.

    Athletes exercising their right to make informed decisions is only "out of control" if you think those rights should be restricted. They shouldn't and every athlete using the portal is an informed consumer.

    Cast iron pan?

    I bought a 12" Lodge at Home Depot for $25. It's perfect.

    OT: DIII sports experience

    I was in the same boat 5 years ago. My volleyball playing daughter had the credentials to play at the D1 level (All-State, All-Courant, All-Conference, POY, State Championship, State Tournament MVP) but wanted a complete college experience. In D1, doesn't matter the school or the sport, all...

    OT: Ever been to Polar Park?

    First of all, there's nothing as pretty as a baseball field, even a bad one. (Some golf courses come close.) In a game of inches, Polar comes up an inch short. It's not a bad place but it is less than it could be. I get the sense that it was built on the cheap. The field lighting is...

    OT: Ever been to Polar Park?

    Polar Park pales in comparison to the Dunk. Polar missed the mark, unfortunately. A 500% improvement over McCoy, obviously and a very nice experience but Dunkin Donuts Park is superior in every way.

    2025 Recruiting: Cooper Flagg offered

    Crazy UConn Football trivia question that shows the dysfunction of UConn Football in recent years.

    Head coach turnover isn't rare. In fact, I'd say UConn has been comparatively stable. Exceptionally poor, but stable. Pasqualoni was fired in his 3rd year. Diaco got 3 full years and Edsall 2.0 got 4 years. Compare that to a school like say, USC who, since 2013 has had 6 head coaches: Lane...

    Road bicycling

    I had my 2001 Waterford rebuilt after I rode Seattle to Portland (210 miles, 1-day) in 2016. Only rode it once since the rebuild. Next spring, I'll get back on it.

    Beer

    This was my go-to IPA when I lived in Washington. Hopefully, it travels well. Did you get that in CT? Boneyard Beer was just purchased by Deschutes Brewery (Mirror Pond) which will increase their distribution reach. Boneyard makes a double called Hop Venom and a triple called Notorious that...

    Hurley's First Half Turd

    Including free throws, we missed over 50 shots tonight. I'd have to re-watch (I won't) but I bet we missed 10 layups or put-backs in the first 10 minutes. Turgeon didn't outcoach anyone. Going forward, I'd rather have Hurley than Turgeon.

    OT: Perserverance Anyone??

    I heard that some rando grade-schooler got to name the rover. He named it "Perseverance" …and it got them to Mars. Kind of glad they didn't name it "Flattery".
