Teamwork

You know, I thought the game of hoops was gone, as I knew it...thankfully, this D-1 playoff bevy of teams, proves otherwise...there is coaching going on...lots of it...there are patterns to the way it is played...again...some are even outstanding...real plays with real sets...cool...it is a far superior game than the next step up (?), the NBA...and, it's not even close when we get to the defense...terrific schemes are used, and guys are buying in...it doesn't happen in the Pros until their playoffs...those front 82 games are just a precursor....anyhoo, back to the Big Dance...UCLA, Princeton, and 'Bama have my nod for the first set of 8...will see the rest today...uniquely coached the 3 I mentioned...Alabama has a lot of depth and so very fast...

Now, there is this bloke that coaches Arkansas...he is a piece...don't get me wrong, he does a good job...but, he is a bit out of wack...they love him, he is all theirs...

Gotta add this...there USED to be pattern play in the Pros...and terrific D...but, the 3 ball changed it all...now EVERYONE shoots the 3 and...quickly...

Putin is adding insult to his invasion of Ukraine...actually doing a Hitler thing...being videoed in an occupied city that he apparently has his pawns take over...gloating...

The T in Florida...where the paint company is sponsoring it...it is so tight, that anyone in the field up to 4 back could win it today...lurking is Tommy Fleetwood, Jordan Spieth...just one back of Adam Schenk...a name to watch out for is Webb Simpson...he has the goods to sneak up and win...again...

There sure is some feedback by some of the golf pros to using limited flight golf balls...would they be checked at every T?...there would be a ball checker?...first your blood, now your balls...you know, fresh balls...the Horse loses em way too fast...not so much in the lakes, rivers, and ponds...but in the high grass...and as far as I can tell, there ain't a lot of difference from one to another...other than a Top Flight, that feels like a rock...bring back the balata!...

Taylor Swift has just started her world tour...well...and get this, in her 1st one, she sang 44 songs!...how do you remember all of them, unless you wrote them?...right, she did...still...

Have yet to see her concert, but my guess is that there is a lot of screaming...when the Beatles performed, there was a lot of that, too...they said they couldn't hear each other sing...of course, their set was like 6-8 songs...and they wrote them, too....geez, 44?...

You know, it's not my gig...but I can't remember words fully for ONE song...not even my alma mater...of any of the schools I graduated from...not one song...

The word out is to not go to Costco on a Saturday...we did...and it was better than most days...so many checkers...no lines...

After trumps call for 'his people' to protest what he calls his imminent arrest...I perused the entire Costco store for 'his people' wearing MAGA caps...saw none...perhaps, they haven't got the word yet...is it on FOX?...I digress...

Have you heard about...in the 9/11 attack on the US...there may have been a 5th plane?...that didn't get off the ground?...interesting...

This, too, is my Sudoko day...takes about 2 hours...Monster...really...
