Israel had their first EuroBasket game yesterday, Berg was the only player not to play. Makes sense given their team, just reporting here.

Rick Barnes can whoop two teams faster than Heupel can whoop one.

This weekend was like a game of "hold my beer".

Arch Manning and Texas, terrible debut.
Alabama: Hold my beer
Nico and UCLA: Hold my beer
Belichick and UNC: Hold my beer

I thought LSU/Clemson and ND/Miami were both pretty good games. But Texas/OSU was a dud even though it was only a 7 point game, and I enjoyed FSU/Alabama for obvious reasons.

Also would add Colorado/Sanders to that list but at the same time I'm not surprised they lost. I'm wondering how much longer Sanders can live off hype

Ah, you're right. I wasn't paying attention to those close games at the time. My new boss at work is a big Bama fan, so I also enjoyed seeing that score even more than usual.

Reported for saying a soccer game was more exciting than watching the VOLS season opener.

Bishop’s mom. Gotta love the character of the athletes Barnes injects in this program.

Man, Im not sure I could love a picture more

That's a brutal self-admission and one that you wouldn't think would serve his program well, but with the transient nature of college sports and the change in scope from a 3-4 year look-ahead to more of a year-by-year approach by seemingly everyone, it probably won't have much effect.

Maybe he recognizes how it appears he’s about to stroke out on the sidelines? His health doesn’t appear that great JMO.

I think this is also because he has been hinting at a Senate run. I’m not sure how serious he is about it, but he’s made some off-hand comments over the past few months.

He'll fit right in in that arena.

I like another guy from Auburn named Tuberville who made a decent Senator imo.Perhaps I’m wrong but not sure how Pearl would do in that regard.

You’re wrong about Tuberville being a decent senator, but it’s Alabama so the bar is low. He’s done some grandstanding and accomplished nothing for his constituents.

VLS win, Turds lose and Bama coming back to the pack… I’m plum giddy right now.

Burg has gotten very little PT, only averaging 4.2 mins/game across a 5-game stretch… hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve made more sense for him to not play for the national team.
