Cuse lands its first 2017 commit. Huge potential here. Think Tyler Roberson with a more polished jump shot. https://www.google.com/amp/www.syracuse.com/articles/19661760/syracuse_basketball_gets_commitment_from_2017_recruit_oshae_brissett.amp?client=safari

2017 SF Oshae Brissett will announce at halftime of the Knicks-Raptors game tonight. Down to Cuse, Oregon, USC and Memphis. Would be a really solid commit for SU.

I notice you have my man Jabrill in your sig as your first round pick. Do you think we're gonna suck badly enough down the stretch to get in his projected range, or do you think he will fall? Or are you just nuts?

Sadly, I agree... I've been backing Gilmore all season, but after seeing him whiff on all those tackles, I just can't do it anymore. The whole exchanging jerseys with Sherm think was the nail in the coffin for me. See ya Stephon.

Jeebus, .34?! Shouldn't she be dead? How the hell was she able to get into the car in the first place? Poojer, would ya?

Rewind to a season ago, and we had possibly the best CB tandem in the league. I can't imagine that their play last season was a fluke. What other factors are at work here? Is it coaching? Is it the system? Is it the horrible safety play? A combination of all that? I wouldn't pay Gilmore as a top CB because it looks to me like he has given up on his team. His attitude has been poor, and his effort in tackling has been horrible. Let him walk. This team desperately needs to upgrade the safety positions in the offseason. Blanton sucks. Meeks and Duke Williams suck worse. And Graham is just getting old. Losing AW killed this defense, IMO.

We have 2 PG who can both distribute the ball well and score points. Gillon seems to be the better shooter of the two, but Howard seems much improved. Andrew White can absolutely shoot the lights out. In terms of shooting, not much of a drop off from Mali at the 3. White reminds me of Demetrius Nichols. Roberson is benefiting from the point guard play, as he has been racking up the easy buckets in the paint after nifty assists. Lydon hasn't been shooting the ball particularly well, but he has been a beast on defense. DC2 looks more muscular and much more athletic than in the past. Chukwu is a bit light, but his length in the middle of the zone will be nice. Good shot blocker. Tyus Battle appears to be as advertised. He does it all at the guard position, and probably will be a one and done. Taurean Thompson looks like a man, and has good footwork and a soft touch around the rim. Look for him to get minutes at the 4. Overall, this may be one of the best SU teams in a long time. They are very deep, can shoot, and are very long and active in the zone. I'm really excited about this season.

I'd love to have Mali back too, obviously. Although some folks are saying that AW3 will make us forget about him. I can't remember where I read it, but I believe the one-and-doners who are drafted in the first round make significantly more money over the course of their careers than the 3-4 year college players who are drafted in the 1st round. I'm going to look for the article.

Just today he was sent down to Sacramento's D League team in Reno.

San Diego will trounce the Phins at home. Lock it in.

My son has 2 hockey games on Sunday. The first one is in Manchester which is about a 40 minute drive to my south. The second on is in south Burlington, which is about 2 hours north of Manchester. My son is 6. What the hell did we sign up for with this travel hockey stuff?!

I have a USB cord that connects my MacBook to my television. I can't hear the audio through my surround sound, but the picture is usually very good. I am curious to see Howard and Gillon play. Frank has been starting, but by most accounts, Gillon has been the better PG.

Game day! LGO Orange!

what is 40cal?

There is a saliva swab test police officers can use. It takes 8 minutes to get results.

That PI on Darby was garbage.

Drugs errr bad.....mmmmkay?

I still use my CD's but only in my car ('09 Impreza) because it doesn't have an auxiliary jack for my phone or IPod. I can find just about everything in my CD collection on Spotify or somewhere online.

5 star 2017 C, Nick Richards, from NYC will announce his college decision on Tuesday (11/10). He recently cut his "list" down to Kentucky, Syracuse and Arizona. Thought to be a Kentucky lean for some time now, there are rumors floating around that he is considering Syracuse more now due to the pending (hopefully) Quade Green committment. Would be a HUGE get for Syracuse, but I'd give us about a 40% chance at landing him. Ranked 12 overall in '17 class.

Win-out.

You can find the New York Seltzers at Price Chopper here in VT. Same small glass bottles as when I was a kid. Love black cherry. My wife buys the Polar flavored sofa waters. They have all kinds of crazy flavors, and are 10 for $10. Can't beat it.

If they made it like Tinder I would keep swiping left...

Anyone ever light a fart and burn all the hair up the crack of your a$$? I never have...
