I’m enjoying the bracket of greatest MBB games of the last 40 years. On that note, what are the top 5 best individual moments or plays from basketball games during that time? Could you guys come up with a bracket for that too? What about the best ISU dunks?

You catch the 'rona and you're in quarantine for 14 days. There are no sports so you need to watch something else. Only one movie is on your TV, over and over, all day, all night. You can't pause it and the TV is stuck at half volume. What will you choose?

Am I going to get e-corona from reading this column?

What are you planning to spend your stimulus money on and why isn't it being donated entirely to CF Patreon?

Stocks have taken a beating over the past month-ish. What are your top 5 buys for rebound gains (individual stocks only)?

Edit: To expand on this, you have $10,000 to invest into the 5 stocks you choose, how are you investing it?

will we have games this year with no crowds for football?

If so, what about tailgating?

Not exactly sure.
If the strippers come to your place and work at your home, does that count? Or does it have to be at their home for work at home requirements?

I pitched this for The Other Mailbag, but I think it was suspended before they used it (If not, and just missed it, disregard).

By some quirk, you wake up tomorrow and have complete control of a new professional sports franchise. Among other things, you get to establish the team’s location, mascot and colors. It can be in any of the 4 major team sports (NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL .. or soccer, if you’re into that sort of thing). Assume the league could accommodate a new franchise, either through expansion or a team folding.
1. Which league?
2. Where do you locate the team (it can be any city in the world, of any size)
3. Team nickname?
4. Team colors (limit of 3, or 2 colors plus white)

How do you have time for mailbags? I'm like 10,000 times busier ever since I started working from home!

He is dedicated to his readers and their causes and concerns. I had some pretty important questions that never got answered in that other mailbag. Once I remember what they were I will berate you about them.

I take it mailbags are social distancing and answers will be available in 6 days?
I'll shoot for a Friday publish and worst-case scenario will wrap it up over the weekend.

This will be happening. Regular work duties have multiplied this week. :mad:

Am I technically not practicing social distancing by asking this question?
