Sinner will likely go into this Final fresh as a daisy, having never really been tested. Alcaraz and Djokovic will likely be an epic match, taxing both of them to the extreme. Thus Sinner has a strong edge in the final.

I hope Nole figures out a way to play through the pain and win this one.

Rich people paying to get up Everest means that they have a team of people to haul their gear, set up their tent, cook their gourmet food, handle all the logistics of permitting, and lead them up and down - sometimes with a rope attached to pull them if needed. #Iditarod

The White House has just released a new official statement as the economy crashes:

“The President won his second round matchup of the Senior Club Championship today in Jupiter, FL, and advances to the Championship Round tomorrow.”

Amazing that the front pages of the various right-wing news sites say nothing at all about the massive stock market decline over the past two days. Is it possible the Trumpers don't even know about it?

While the rest of us are looking at our 401ks and kissing retirement goodbye, Trump is playing golf.

This makes me so happy. He went to Nome on his own. Screw the ITC, this seems so much better. On his own terms, in his own time, doing it with love in his heart.

So they just force-scratched Jenny, shut down the Insider chat & videos, and boom, done? I haven't been paying much attention to this fiasco of a race since they yanked people from the course for no good reason. So maybe this wasn't as abrupt as it seems to me?

Blair and Q have created a group where, even (or especially) when things get tough, we lean together and bring along those in need. What a gift.

Tonight I supported this classroom who is looking for books. That’s it. BOOKS. Can you join me or signal boost? #UglyDogs #Igivearod

Maybe Iditarod will promote itself as an elite race from now on. Like F1 or Nascar. Only those with the $$ to support a high-speed assault on Nome need apply. #Iditarod

In an interesting (to me) contrast, I've lost interest in the IW tennis tournament because all of the top players have been knocked out, and I've lost interest in the Iditarod because the slowest mushers were forcibly removed. I guess it's time to do my taxes.

#uglydogs We can still send Quince and the others mushergrams! www.iditarod.com/mushergrams . Tell them we know they were wronged.

I just unsubscribed from all #Iditarod emails, too. Very satisfying. #uglydogs

Also, it's clear how Jason Olnes tracker got marked in Koyuk briefly. An oopsie. They are trying to make it look like these mushers are still at checkpoints until they make the announcement. They forgot to turn his off.

I'm not sure I even want to follow the rest of the race or watch the finish. Sure won't be supporting Iditarod in any way, shape, or form from now on. I'm out. #uglydogs

Based on the latest talk by Greg & Bruce, the back of the pack will likely be withdrawn. Guess Blair wasted money shipping a new sled. I feel for them. #uglydogs

#uglydogs do we know anything more about the "loose dog" Q mentioned?

Awooo!!! #uglydogs (Forgot to hit Post so posting a bit late)

This is what the #uglydogs have done so far.
Amazing

My guess is that race officials asked Quince to move on down to Kaltag to take his 24 so that they could close Nulato and move all the vets and volunteers to other checkpoints. Kaltag will be open for quite some time as mushers loop back to it. #uglydogs

#uglydogs looking for some advice from you all - my elderly female dog has become incontinent. She's peeing wherever she happens to be now, no effort to go outside. Should I try diapers? If so, washables or disposables? I assume her fur will get soaked from wearing them, how best to clean?
March 9, 2025 at 1:53 AM
well, I guess I can give Iditarod my full attention now. Djokovic just got taken out of Indian Wells. #nolefam
