Ant already has 10 points. Not even halfway through the first quarter.

Fran got 1 game for bumping a ref in Madison years ago. I expect Hurley misses UConn's first game at The Garden next week.

It remains funny to me that Hy-Vee advertises all over downtown, yet the closest store is over in Robbinsdale. I say this as someone who grew up in a town with multiple Hy-Vees.

Free advice for the Minnesota Timberwolves: Your unis/court today should be what it is for every home playoff game this year (this is also the 10-year of Prince's death), and then wear your black throwbacks for any road playoff game where your opponent doesn't wear black at home. You're welcome.

Wolves are playing the Orlando Magic this afternoon. The game is airing on Prime. The Wolves are wearing their Prince unis today.

Prince's symbol in the background of the mid-court logo. The pregame playlist is a whole bunch of his music.

Wolves/Magic this afternoon (hi @scootermagruder.bsky.social). Digging the Prince theme today at Target Center. Game is on Amazon Prime.

Rest in peace Rubin Ray Martinez. 🙏🏽

Chinga la migra. Abolish the whole dam system.

Troy Murray has died. Just devastating. No one brightened up a day at the rink like Troy. I'll miss his stories, his mischievous smile, his throwing of popcorn at us whenever his booth was behind us in the press box. Truly one of the all-time good guys. Peace and love to his family.

He also missed a good chunk of the season due to injury. The Bengals actually looked OK when he returned. They were dog water when he was out.

That's fair. The only one of those that seems questionable now (and also did at the time) is Higgins. Hendrickson's gone, and I would have paid Chase too if I was them.

No. You're not wrong, but please no.

He's got Maxx Crosby, Myles Garrett, and TJ Watt on his 3 division rivals. And all three of those teams made coaching changes while the Bengals stood pat. If I'm Burrow, I'm demanding a trade ASAP.

It’s two first rounders to the Raiders for Maxx Crosby.

Joe Burrow reacting to the Maxx Crosby news:

Blockbuster: The Raiders are trading five-time Pro Bowl edge Maxx Crosby to the Ravens, sources tell me and @rapsheet.bsky.social

I know Luka loved being in Minnesota, but the minutes were never going to be there for him, and he's finally getting to really showcase himself with Boston.

Iowa was -7.5. What a brutal beat for anyone who bet that line.

Considering how close Illinois played Iowa last week at Carver, the Hawkeyes looked sharp tonight right from the get-go.

Yeah, I could see that. Just getting caught up on this Bradbury news.

The Wild now have a set of brothers. Just not what any of their fans probably had in mind.

Wow. I guess this now makes 98 the new captain.

MS NOW confirms Corey Lewandowski is also out at DHS.

I think that 16/17 game on Tuesday is set. So yeah, as it stands now, Iowa is playing Wednesday morning against either Oregon or Maryland.

Not having their PG is what will kill them. They were my natty pick before that happened.

Also, note how the women did NOT expand and kept it at 15. No one is winning 6 games in 6 days.

If the B1G didn't expand the conference tournament, Iowa would be playing one less game and locked into a Thursday game against either OSU or UCLA. Now it runs the risk of losing to a Maryland (again) or an Oregon.

Welp. Pretty simple now. If Ohio State beats Indiana on Saturday, Iowa is locked into the 9 seed of the B1G Tournament and playing Wednesday morning in Chicago (gross).

Figured that would happen.

That is just brutal. Second straight game down 2 and not getting a shot off.

Oh my. There's the travel that should have been called earlier.

Jess, I would foul right away. I know you know far more basketball than I ever will, but the shot clock is off.
