Sports in Northeast PA, Penn State grad, 10 years in radio, now in collegiate athletics. Dad and Husband. Former baby. 8th Grade Hot Shot Champion at the 2002 Lackawanna County Basketball Clinic.
I am weeks behind on the @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social, but am prepared to say the Double Heist episode is an all-timer, and the FSU-France section was inspired, and I lost it at @celebrityhottub.bsky.social’s “Grandpa who is a boy”

In conclusion, I’d like to add: Crease Reeks

It’s a Scranton potty, now.

Was listening to the Notre Dame radio broadcast while doing leaves (before it started pouring), and they use the ND band playing what I can only describe as “ren and stimpy” music coming back from break.

Reading about Death Cap mushrooms. The phrase “…responsible for 90% of mushroom-related fatalities ever year,” is an incredible thing to say.

The tight end for Ole Miss literally fell down and then popped back up to catch a touchdown against Oklahoma. This game is off the rails.

Very, very bad news for the futures of our hospitals in NEPA. Geisinger is poised to be the only game in town in a year or two.
Commonwealth Health System and Tenor Health Foundation on Friday signed a purchase agreement for the sale of Commonwealth's three NEPA hospitals. The deal is expected to close by the end of the year, subject to funding and regulatory review.

Attention @hollyanderson.bsky.social I felt like this update in the Electric City would interest you.

Not exactly apples to apples (season opener vs late season game), but listen to how you can hear the guys on the floor, the bouncing of the ball, the soft swish of the net from Jordan’s jumper. TNT knew how to mic a basketball game.

I think the sound mixing sounds a bit muddled. Not sure if it’s the crowd being so amped and loud or what, but you can find a ton of late 1990’s NBA games on YouTube that sound much better than this.

The laser-Peacock and transition from SD to HD is, indeed, incredible. Definitely missing the “narrative” aspect for the intros from the 90’s. That’s part of what Marv and Bob Costas did so well to set the scene. Hopefully they can incorporate that as we get further in.
oh my god the transition from the SD laser-peacock to HD holy shit it's amazingf

Peacock app crashed just as the NBA on NBC intro started. Inauspicious start, but we are BACK baby
October 21, 2025 at 10:34 PM
NBA on NBC is back tonight!

If that laser Peacock pops on my screen, I’m going to start crying.

Thinking about watching more NHL this year (I have ESPN+). Who should I watch?

What people complain about with Bronny is actually happening with the Bucks.
The Milwaukee Bucks are signing Alex Antetokounmpo to a two-way NBA deal, joining older brothers Giannis and Thanasis, Octagon's Alex Saratsis tells ESPN. This marks the first time in NBA history that three brothers are on active roster contracts with the same team.

Is UCLA the greatest football team of all time? Many are asking!
UCLA is like a totally different team now.

“Hey boss, came up with the schedule for the most popular NBA show to help give our struggling NBA coverage a boost. Real fuckin’ sparse, just like you asked.”
Here is when Inside The NBA will be on during the NBA regular season.

Explaining to my son before bedtime that Diddy Kong is Donkey Kong’s nephew. Feels very “uncle” behavior to get so mad that you start throwing barrels at people, or think you can fly by spinning around fast enough.

In a discussion with PSU friends and the subject of jury duty came up. @shutdownfullcast.bsky.social I have a question: Who is the head football coach you absolutely do not want on your jury if you’re on trial?

And please imagine Mack Brown as the jury foreman.

I’m going to add to the discourse by saying that, given the name of the album and the overall theme through all the pictures and marketing…I dunno, I expected songs with big, sweeping, show-stopping movements. Like “Show Must Go On” or The Wall-type grandeur. She didn’t really do that.

I’m trying to be reasonable and give grace to grieving fans after a brutal loss…but I think people like this should be banned from sporting events.
