She happens to be wearing the shoes I think I had my greatest sellers remorse selling.

Not me. Women's basketball doesn't do it for me. I'm more of a soccer/volleyball/tennis guy when it comes to Women's sports.

Awesome stuff she's doing, but I don't find her particularly likeable on the court anymore. She's full on Dukie whining about every call some nights.

What exactly does a getting a mulligan mean? I think he’d have to have TWO more terrible (by our standards) seasons in a row before the seat would even begin to warm. But I definitely do not think he’s immune from harsh criticism.

You golf. A mulligan is an attempt to mAke a bad shot better. Of course he’s got all the rope he needs, I was speaking more to many people giving him a pass without seeming accountability
I get it - just couldn't tell if you were calling for blood. Because what does accountability mean here? We will do...what exactly if he isn't a better boy next year?
Be able to criticize openly without best coach in history if forever peacock feathers being raised by others.

It’s mostly just being able to talk trash when things go bad like being able to give praise when things go bad.

If I’m gonna be ok bashing 18-27 year olds playing college basketball because they make money, I should for sure bash any coach (ours included) making $10 mil a year who doesn’t deliver.

It’s part of being spoiled. History tells me I won’t have to make any such decision on coach. Players, who knows.

NC State and UConn are more exciting to me. But to each their own. It's awesome people are paying attention to the women's tournament.

Who bets 10.32 on a game
I'll be nice.
A. A LOT of people bet "uneven" amounts.
B. He LOST $10.32. LOSING $10.32 does not necessarily mean someone bet $10.32 on "A game". Singular or plural. People bet multiple things at the same time on the same "ticket". Parlays, teasers, gimmicks, etc.
I don't know exactly what fish means by saying he "lost $10.32. Chances are this is NOT what he meant but it's possible it is....
He may have bet $5 to get back $15.32. Thus saying, "I lost $10.32" when in reality he really only "lost" $5.
OR.....
C. If I win, sometimes the payouts are not even amounts. Meaning, for example, if I bet a parlay, the PAYOUT may be $10.32 or some other amount not rounded off to the dollar or even the half dollar.
Therefore, if I have let's say $110.32 in my account, I will often make a wager for $10.32 to bring my account to an "even" number/amount. Thus, if I bet the $10.32 and lose my wager, I lost $10.32.

The real answer is that I was a bit sloppy with my terminology and technically shouldn’t have said I “lost” the payout amount (on a $5 bet). But that’s how it felt when a layup that would have resulted in me getting $10.32 was waved off. So it felt like I lost $10.32.

But I absolutely do C all the time.

I also do C.
I feel like it's betting just a touch extra.
But when you think about it, it's kind of expecting yourself to loose.

I wish I could say it's strategic, but it's really just OCD for me.

Iowa-LSU E8 viewership was higher than both last year’s World Series and the NBA finals

Err.

"Monday’s March Madness Elite Eight matchup and national championship game rematch garnered 12.3 million viewers for ESPN...peaked at 16 million viewers"

"Monday’s Heat-Nuggets NBA Finals Game 5 averaged a 7.0 rating and 13.08 million viewers on ABC and peaked at 17.83 million viewers"
