Easily killed with a knife.  I live in Mountain Lion/Cougar territory.  They don't stand a chance.

They didn't nearly become an endangered species for nothing!

When the encounter goes bad, sometimes you have to face the music.

Zverev looks a good 7 inches taller than Alcaraz.  Hopefully Carlos has his A game tonight.  He's had some trouble with the German giant.

Quote from: muwarrior69 on January 29, 2026, 08:47:54 PMI hope Shaka is right about Nash and not hyping us like he did Hamilton.

Sigh......yes players sometimes play better in practice and have trouble translating it to games. He was wrong about Hamilton.....just like Crean observations of some players in the Crean and Buzz years turned out to be wrong.

He also talked about Kam as a frosh.......he believed in Kolek and said he was much better than he was playing all during his sophomore season......when many on this board had written him off as a waste of a scholarship ...........

He saw in Oso talents that would later make him an NBA player when he played about 5 minutes his freshman season.

Would you feel better if he said " We're glad to have Nash here.......he's off to a slow start and has had trouble adjusting to this level but he will improve "?

Royce was very thoughtful in his segment on the show.......it was positive about his relationship with Shaka, his growth as a leader this season....his work with Todd Smith.....among other things.

Was that too much hype or was it ok to mention it?
