Got to see my oldest and her high school choir perform at Carnegie Hall earlier this week. It brought a smile to my face and a tear to my eye. I’ve never had any interest in going to NYC, but ain’t no way I was missing this. Obviously the theater has its history and ambiance. Fortunately we were able to easily see her from our balcony. Then we hustled her down to Philadelphia for her final matching band performance in the Thanksgiving Day parade. It was raining and we got a bit of a late start to walk to where we thought would be a good viewing spot. We literally got to the spot just before the float in front of them. As we were approaching and couldn’t really see much, I thought for sure I heard one of their usual parade songs. We kind of lucked out to see/hear them perform one of their Christmas songs, too.

Williams had no business changing the play and wasting so much clock. That's on him. But... He's like a six year old with a can of gas and a lighter. Once you see him flicking that Bic you need to put a stop to it. You just can't let him burn the house down. Eberflus should have called time once it became apparent he was changing the play

Ha, got to ruin Dantonio’s day too. Keeps getting better and better. Former Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio, the defensive coordinator of Ohio State’s 2002 national championship team, was honored in between the first and second quarters for his upcoming induction into the College Football Hall of Fame.

They can't take Reddit away from us!!!

A starting QB in the MAC probably wins this game for Michigan.

It isn't posted yet. But some Ohio State administrative Assistant has the head coach job posting already typed up.

I don't think Michigan got the memo that they were supposed to lose by 20.

You would think a nice way to take that segment would be bringing a foster dog every week that is up for adoption, as a partnership with a shelter where you solicit donations. You'd have to vet the dog obviously (no pun intended) and make sure it's cool with crowds, but that could do a lot of good, instead of just being a dude bringing his dog to every game.

Yes. And if the ball is snapped in a reasonable time that’s all food. But 12 secs went off the clock with no one in position. You cloud has the timeout then and still have time to hit the middle of the field a fire drill or a side line out and full play clock to kick the field goal. The coach failed. Every last person talking football on any platform blamed Eberflus. He got fired for it. It was on him. No one else.

He has an ugly shot. But seems rude to call it obscene.

If anyone is keeping track at home, since Ryan Day threatened to "hang a hundred on them" in August 2020: Michigan 130 Ohio State 84

You can't spell medayiocre with without the letters D-A-Y.

This was a successful season for Sherone Moore.

like mcs said, the only other ones i can think of were 1969 and the year shawn springs slipped and michigan won a similar game in cbus. 1969 was against an osu team that had not lost in 2 years. but it was in ann arbor.

Gus Johnson has been such an Ohio State slappy all day long.

Need Bryce now.

Can’t miss those throws.

TUDDY. Gus sounds sad.

He had it. These announcers are real idiots. They keep calling the Buckeyes...THE Ohion State...

I think he did have it but they were never going to be able to overturn that.

I just want to do away with that horrible Lee Greenwood song. So overused, and not great music to begin with. It's become trite. It ranks right up there with Tony Orlando and Yellow Ribbons

I miss the days of Keith Jackson and Bob Griese or Brad Nessler calling games. As time goes on I find Gus Johnson more and more insufferable. His calling Ohio State world famous errrks me and the way he celebrates every little thing they do is grating. He clearly likes Ohio State.

I know we suck this season, but always, always BEAT OHIO!!!

Lions fired Mooch on Thanksgiving that one year...that was epic. I think Williams had zero faith in his kicker and perhaps his coach and took it upon himself to go full on glory hog for the win.

Are the deferrals linked to a particular year? I imagine it would be part of the negotiation in the trade. I know we had this discussion when Ohtani signed but I forgot the details. Isn’t the deferred money still counted against the luxury tax threshold based on its present value?

How ****ty is it that he even had to say that?

Keep hitting refresh.

I understand, and it makes sense to hurry and run a play on 3rd down. Eberflus said they wanted to run the play at 18 seconds. When that doesn't happen, Eberflus needs to also have a contingency plan. He needs to call the timeout at around 12 seconds if the ball isn't snapped. You then need to call something to the sidelines or the end zone. If that doesn't work, kick the long FG. No way a coach should let that game end with a timeout in his pocket and not even attempting a FG. If Caleb dances around with 12 seconds and screws it up, at least you did everything you could as coach.

Not a fan of the point differential tie-breaker. I'd rather see a points system like they do in Summer League where you get points for each quarter you win, or something like that. It feels like NBA2K out there with starters trying to run up the score in a 20 blow point blowout. Either way, that was a heck of a game by the Pistons on both ends. Outside of a turnover stretch to start the 4th, they really cooked the Pacers. Outside, inside, defensively. That was the whole package, especially the effort.

LOL you post state media relentlessly

How is that last second shot by Cade to end the third not a foul? Seriously? Did Cade do something to offend the ref community or something?

Well, Thompson has confidence for sure. In about a 4 minute span Indian gave him a wide open 3 from the same corner. First two were ugly and very short. Third one ripped the net. 33%!

But again, he changed the play well after the point where a timeout should have been called. He didn’t change the play until 15 secs left. Coach set the kid up to fail. He is a rookie, of course he doesn’t understand all the nuances. Even at 10 secs you could have called a timeout!

Every team in the league runs 3 or 4 guys who can shoot in their starting lineup. That's called NBA basketball and nobody is saying you shouldn't do that. That leaves you room for 1 or 2 guys who are questionable shooters and Ausar is one I'm putting in the game without question. I'm prioritizing his minutes over Holland's as well. Give me an All-NBA defender with top 5% athleticism, steals, blocks, great rebounding, good passing and bball IQ. And that's from someone who wanted Cam Whitmore over Ausar in the draft. Just don't be a dumb coach and stick him one pass away in the strong side corner (yet) like Monty did or like JB has done with Holland. It's literally the dumbest place to put a guy who can't shoot. Better yet, on offense he can be in the pick and roll as either the handler or screener. He can be the DHO hub like how they're using Duren (or how Draymond is often used). He can also operate out of the dunker spot as you called out. It works even better with Stew in the lineup since you can invert them. Now, not only do you have better spacing but you also have a better defensive Center in there to go along with Ausar's elite defense.

Rolling Stone has been well known for decades to engage in terrific journalism. They sure beat the hell out of "End Wokeness", whatever the **** that is.

I just prefer that all of the offensive guys play some sort of adequate defense. The fact that he had slightly more than 0 reps with a mitt in Detroit is quite telling.

Eberflus said the plan was to snap the ball at 18 seconds. When it isn't snapped at 12 seconds, you call timeout. You go to plan B, which could either be a quick hitter to the sideline or a shot to the endzone. If both fail, you have a second chance for either a long field goal or another shot to the end zone. There is no way a coach should just stand and watch his team run out the clock.

No other posts in six hours? I guess this means our Black Friday is pretty meager.

Raymond extends his goal scoring streak to 5.

After 2020 the big lie was “Stop the Steal”. The 2024 version is that he has a huge mandate from a landslide when he didn’t even win 50% of the votes. So many people willing to embrace lies.

augustine is younger and is dominating the ncaa. AND he's the #1 for the US and has done it on the big world stage already. he's futher along than cossa was at his age. that being said, big goalies take time and cossa has a higher ceiling simply because of his size. trade one of them for a top 4 defenseman...

She looks and sounds ten times better than your president.

what in the world lol

FWIW - guys on the radio reported that the Cubs don't want to pay Bellinger - are looking to offload him to anyone that will take his salary. Very inconsistent player to take on though - he's all over the map performance wise.

Wow, I thought I lost this two decades ago.... my guess is this is about 40 years old.

You guys all know that I’m a Yankees fan, & I appreciate your tolerance of me, but this picture did give me all kinds of smiles/good feelings. (So, bear with me… you won’t get any more Yankees stuff from me) This is just cute. ☺️
