Photo: USA Today / Imagn Images ST. LOUIS — Let’s get straight to it. The vibe around Iowa State heading into Sunday’s Round of 32 matchup with Kentucky is that all-American Joshua Jefferson probably isn’t going to play. “Right now, we are continuing to evaluate,” T.J. Otzelberger said in his...
Very interesting interview with author Michael Lewis (Moneyball, Blindside, many other best sellers).
Youth sports these days is pretty much professional, thus I posted in here. According to ML the total $ spent on youth sports in U.S. is greater than $ spent on professional sports.
Like a lot of people, he decrees the specialization, monetization and professionalization of youth sports.
He was a big Mike Leach fan and was going to basically live with him to get the inside on college football, then Leach passed away.
I first knew Lewis as a business book author (Big Short, Liar's Poker, Flash Boys). He is a fascinating guy.

Watch everything T.J. Otzelberger, Joshua Jefferson, Milan Momcilovic, Killyan Toure, Nate Heise, Tamin Lipsey, Dominick Nelson and Blake Buchanan said following the game below.
Mar 20, 2026; St. Louis, MO, USA; Iowa State Cyclones forward Joshua Jefferson (5) is helped off of the court after suffering an apparent injury to his left leg while shooting a layup against Tennessee State Tigers forward Jalen Pitre (not pictured) during the first half of a first round game of...

USA Today / Imagn Images Photo ST. LOUIS — That was one of the strangest NCAA Tournament games I have ever covered. Iowa State blew the damn doors off of Tennessee State by a 108-74 final as Tamin Lipsey and Joshua Jefferson combined for only three points. Jefferson, of course, went down with...

I smoked for 25 years and could never kick the habit. Went to a local vape shop and bought some of the basics and then within a week bought some better stuff. Right now I have an istick 50watt mod and a Kangetrech Subtank. I started out with 12mg of nicotine and now down to 3mg.
It's definitely not something I would recommend for people who have never smoked but it was the first thing in 25 years that got me away from cigarettes. I've been using it now for about 2 months, It's cheaper, smells better, and I can breath better.
Has anyone replaced a patio door lately? Any places you'd recommend? I have an old French door that is kind of rotting a bit. I'm not looking for anything spectacular, but is the main door that I use. And any idea what it costs to get something like that, with installation?

"In 2022, Ohio police raided Afroman’s house looking for drugs and kidnapping evidence. They found nothing and filed no charges.
To pay for the damage they caused, Afroman used his security footage to make viral music videos (like "Lemon Pound Cake") mocking the officers. He also sold merch with their faces on it.
The Twist: Seven of the officers sued him for "invasion of privacy" and "emotional distress," claiming his videos ruined their reputations.
Right Now (March 2026): They are in trial. The judge threw out the privacy claims, but a jury is currently deciding if Afroman’s lyrics—calling them "thieves" and "racists"—count as defamation or protected free speech."
He is now releasing tracks on every crooked cop. lol
