Quote from: Billy Hoyle on Today at 12:25:09 PMIt's not like Willard is the first coach to do that. In 2022, there was a first-round tourney game between two coaches, Todd Golden (USF) and Matt McMahmon (Murray State), who had already agreed to leave their schools for new jobs the day after their teams were eliminated. Will Wade did the same this past year and was open about it.

Didn't say Willard was the only one. Although he might have been the only one to repeatedly publicly trash his current school while in the process of quitting on the team he was coaching in the NCAA Tournament.

FWIW, Willard also went from one high-major to another; it was not your classic "step up." Though that never stopped another me-first douchenozzle, Buzz.

Be careful in those golf carts, folks ...

LA QUINTA, Calif. (AP) — Jeff Sperbeck, a business partner and former agent for NFL Hall of Famer John Elway, died Wednesday after suffering an injury last weekend at a Southern California golf resort community. He was 62.

The Riverside County Fire Department said the agency was called to that location on Saturday after someone fell out of a golf cart.

Apparently he had torn his shirt off and poured beer on himself earlier.  Jumped out of his seat too aggressively.

Quote from: tower912 on Today at 11:29:53 AMI like the inspiration to get greed out of Christmas.  To stop spoiling kids and teach them to be happy with the hand stitched rag doll from Etsy.  A reminder that Christmas is about Christ.  Born to a single mom.  Forced to flee into exile.  An immigrant.  Who thought us to love our neighbors as ourselves.

I doubt it leads to a sound investment strategy, as the American economy is consumer driven.  But I applaud the idea to stop being so greedy.  Dovetails nicely with my own minimalism and a good lesson for the kids.

Tower, not disagreeing but there are a lot of mental gymnastics being done by some to suggest that higher prices are good, moral or whatever, and it overlooks that our most marginalized people are the ones that are most impacted.

I'm dubious that there will be any recalibration in American society. Eliminating greed doesn't run in our history

Hopefully we don't end up with Eg on our face!

Was that a suicide attempt in Pittsburgh?

I don't say that jokingly at all.

Based on the timing, I think he was drunk and got up to cheer the ball kicking off Dansby's glove.

Eyewitness accounts also seem to point to him having several beverages in him prior to the accident.
