Good night, basketball. 🏀❤️

@dieworkwear To each his own and there are valid reasons for both but what’s the functional reasoning behind this? Or is it aesthetic only?

hate is a strong term bc i dont care how other people live, but when i browse zillow, im saddened to see how open concept kitchens have become the default. especially when combined with too many overhead can lights and barn doors.

…and that’s how I missed my best chance at going 4/4 in Final Four picks. What a game!

The main thing I've learned about data centers is that everyone is utterly confident they don't use data centers

Oh.

In heaven there is no beer… 🐤 Hawkeyes!

Brutal. Santa Clara is a hell of a team. Sad they can’t move on. #marchmadness

THE BASKETBALL IS GOOD I HAVE A GUINNESS THE BABY IS ASLEEP WE ARE SO BACK ☘️🏀

Michael Ajayi deserves all the accolades and then some.

The best part of this is when he holds his arms out to tell Van Gundy and Bonner to let the moment breathe. We all love it when Harlan gets excited but he's also excellent at knowing when to let great environments have some space to come through on TV. 🐐

hey so this was not expected but it's also good

For every Big 12 tournament debacle, there’s something that rights the ship. This is outstanding. Clean, subtle, nods to the host city without being too heavy-handed.

A beautiful, perfect thing: The 2026 men's NCAA Tournament bracket WITH tip times, TV channels and all tournament sites included. Mandatory inventory.

Welp. Season finally down the tubes. I'm only sad I won't get to see Michael Ajayi again.

Hey so here’s the thing @G_Leiendecker22: I would love to be able to take my son to the Big East tournament some day, but it’s pretty fking hard when the staff sets the team up to be home by Wednesday night. Fix this now. Current generation has nothing to cheer for. #DawgsOnly

@SethDavisHoops @MikeWatersSYR You’re asking two wrongs to make a right.

@MikeWatersSYR wouldn't expanding the tournament make it more likely that Miami Ohio would get in? Would it even be an argument?

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why there's no reason to expand the NCAA tournament. We won't get more worthy mid-majors; just more Power 5 teams that went 9-9 or 7-10 in their conference.

THIS IS MARCH let’s not get ourselves into another war

Just the best. The absolute best.
