College basketball conference championship games > college football conference championship games.

Oh shit. BU just buzzer beatered Navy

Mason (finally have a name) is home safe. For a 13-year old, Shih-tzu/Yorkie mix, he has a lot of energy.

Dog spent the night resting quietly in a spare crate next to me while I slept on the couch.
Called the police department in the morning and some had reported this dog lost late last night.
Awaiting contact to return him

Came across the little guy in the park while walking my dogs this evening

Don't suppose anyone on here knows someone who lost a dog in Willoughby, OH?

While the announcing team on Pitt-Cuse wasn't anything great; I did appreciate them not falling back on claiming "no one wants to face either of these teams in the ACC Tournament"

I'm trying to remember the last time I was legitimately this mad over a win.

Both these teams suck

No. Not OT.
This is worse than the football game Pitt & Cuse played.

Out of a timeout in the final minute, and that's what Capel could draw up?
Just lose and end this bull shit

Let's finish airing grievances at this point. It's been a while since we've wasted effort complaining about Jason Capel; but seeing him also yelling at the official right next to Jeff rather than being an assistant is one more reason why this coaching staff has to be purged.

Just the dumbest, worst coached team*.
(*Excluding Stallings)

Nothing really sums up the Capel era more than the fact that the idea of losing to Cuse in the season finale isn't more upsetting than the idea of watching more of this iteration.

He thinks he's sounding like the MAGA Punisher.
Instead he comes off as the dumber version of Doctor Doom.

My grandmother would feed/spoil her lhasa apsos with 90% lean ground beef and rice as their regular food.
So when I say that it was good enough for the dogs, I mean it.

At Pitt, Lyke's biggest sins were on the financially foolish side -- big building projects, unwillingness to accept/go in on NIL, Capel's contract extension -- but it appears she was willing to take an extra step up in shitty behavior to be an ACC AD once more.

If it's good enough for the dog...

Todd Graham has family in Iran

It would be grimly hilarious if 2 of the last teams out of the NCAA Tournament are Cal and Ohio St., based on losing to Pitt.

So, do I continue to stew in anger over Trump putting us in another Middle East war; or do I watch Pitt basketball and get angry about that?

I hate myself for letting hope for Pitt basketball to win a game seep in for this long.

Never going to get that #1 draft pick at this rate.

Double Nugget just arrived in my store. Cracking one open tonight

Just burned eyebrows and the hair on my upper lip while adding dark rum to a hot pot.
Don't even have the excuse of drinking (yet) when it happened.

Lucky. You can honestly say you couldn't watch.
As opposed to those of us rationalizing the avoidance as a form of self-care*.

*Defined as not screaming at the TV in frustration, and terrifying the dogs.

Rooting for Bari Weis to do the dumbest/funniest thing ever:
Resign in protest in support of a medical grifter who partied with Epstein.

As @defector.com runs classic McQuade columns, his advice to do full-size candy bars for Halloween that remains with me.
The first year we did it, a gaggle of pre-teens came by the house. One got very excited at this. His friends, responded, "This is why we don't skip houses, dumbass!"

Weather station showing -6.9

Not nice.
