Watching the high school tournament last weekend, it finally hits me. Watching 26 treys in the D5 championship game. The conversation turned to how (high school) FT% is down across the country. The thought being the players practice to hit the threes and not the 15-footers. Being 58, not sure if the evolution of the game is necessarily going in the direction I enjoy.

I was at that game, but left after the eighth. It was freaking cold. Jim Slaton blew a two-run lead during the top of the ninth. Like yourself, listened to the end on the radio.

Agreed. When I was a kid, Bucks on CG was our Saturday night tradition. This was 1971. However, when I'm in Madison, I get Pizza Pit. I don't eat in Madison often enough to patronize two places.

Somewhat off-topic, I watched the first ten minutes of the girls title game out of curiosity, then went about my Saturday. I check the box score to find multiple misconducts and disqualifications at the end. Anyone have inside scoop? A big catfight break out? https://www.wiaawi.org/Portals/0/PDF/Results/Hockey_Girls/2024/game3.htm

Caught periods 2 and 3. Nice comeback, very entertaining.

https://www.jsonline.com/story/sports/college/uw/2024/02/19/former-wisconsin-basketball-player-larry-petty-died-in-late-january/72656012007/ OK, not related to this season, but I saw Larry Petty's obit in Sunday's Wisconsin State Journal. I believe he would have been one of Bo Ryan's first recruits to UW(?) #00 Larry Petty, along with Wes Matthews, Clyde Gains, Gregory Bros were fun to watch as a kid. Maybe could have done better under a different coach? ESPN's first college game was Wisconsin v DePaul and Petty would have been a part of that.

Do I dare say "Sex Education"?

Either this thread or another, I mentioned my brother lives in Jacksonville. Talking to him yesterday, he mentioned Jacksonville will be renovating the stadium this fall and may not be able to host games. I asked if the Jags would play in Orlando. He said they were thinking of playing at "The Swamp". So a head's up to you traveling Packer Nation.

I prefer the CFL rule. Last team to touch in bounds gets possession.
-
Better than 2010? :) Yeah, I'm thinking this may have been Detroit's one opportunity this generation (or next). I don't think many Lions fans slept well last night. They had the game in hand at halftime. Like the Packers against Seattle. Different note, the sport that coaches are most risk adverse is football. Like Gregg Olson said, the high risk/reward is what got Detroit to this point, cannot criticize it now.

ON: P Bryan Hudson, acquired 1B Rhys Hoskins, signed The 40-man roster is full.

The Fail Mary game doesn't bother me because that was such a horribly played game by both teams, neither deserved to win. Remember, the score at half was 3-0. The 2014 game, it is what it is. I don't hold it against Seattle. I've visited Seattle and it sits near the top of my list of favorite cities.
-
Same here. I usually support the teams that haven't won in a long while, but I've heard things about Lions fans that put them up there with Philadelphia fans.
-
For some reason, losing to the 49ers doesn't bother me as opposed to losing to the Cowboys in the 90's.

Someone refresh my memory. Didn't UWM have an issue with a previous AD and/or AD v Coach personality conflict?

Best thing heard on WSCR this morning: "The Bears are good at selling losing." -

Per rules, when the coverage team is the first to touch the ball results in a *violation*. The receiving team has possession and can advance without risk of losing possession. Valentine could have advanced and fumbled, Packers would have been awarded possession back at the COP. Also, the receiving team is awarded one play from scrimmage, even if the clock is 0:00. -

Watching continuing coverage to see Crosby kickoff to the five and doink (more like boom) a 44-yard attempt. -
My brother lives in Jacksonville. I knew they were due up in the rotation, but I thought the NFL had tweaked the scheduling formula. My wife has a week in Orlando on her short list of vacation spots.

Last week, finally put my signature on an LTC policy. The final piece to my retirement puzzle. Almost feels like signing a second mortgage. I'll let others worry their retirement homes. I have piece of mind. Four years ago, we hooked up with EIG. They manage our Roth IRAs. Annually, we have a one-hour zoom call to review that and the rest of our investments.

Attended my first Fiserv hockey game. All concessions closed prior to the 2nd intermission.
