With S2’s first three episodes, ANDOR is already going where no Star Wars property has gone before. Darkest SW property to date.

Trying to imagine watching last night’s episode of THE LAST OF US if I hadn’t played the video game. Would have been an absolute WTF television moment.

“Perfect” TV is few and far between these days, but the first season of THE PITT on Max is as close as it gets.

I’m no expert but feels like it’s not gonna be Tennessee’s day if Florida keeps drilling guarded 3s.

Chaz is most dangerous when he gets hot early. Thus far, not happening for Vols.
Chaz Lanier has to take that shot.
He has to be more aggressive.

ESPN broadcast says that was the ninth block of the season for Zakai Zeigler, a stat I would never have believed.

Tennessee going with Okpara as the final shot on two late possessions is basketball malpractice.
Too many empty possessions. Turnovers. Missed shots you have to make.
Just not quite good enough.

Roger and JP would be permanently banned from all MLB stadiums.
If the athletic events depicted in Angels In The Outfield happened in real life and the cause was discovered, would Major League Baseball take any action in response?

Like I said — nothing to worry about! What a performance by the Vols.
No Zakai Zeigler against No. 5 Florida today.

Tennessee starting 0-9 from 3 at No. 1 Auburn is not a recipe for success.

Noah Wyle is fantastic through 4 episodes of THE PITT.
So anyway, THE PITT is excellent. A modernized old-school water-cooler show in the ER mode obviously, but with Wyle as a central, gravitational force with lots of rich supporting players around him.

One of the smartest college basketball players I’ve ever watched. Veteran play after veteran play.
I could live a million lifetimes and not understand why even a small minority of people question Zakai Zeigler.

There will be “in-depth discussions” about not guaranteeing conference champs top 4 @CFBPlayoff seeds in 2025, sources said. Top 5 conference champs still get in playoff but rankings determine seeds. How this year’s playoff would have looked w/that format ⤵️
