Just hung up with the committee chair. Good conversation.
CPM: why is Notre Dame ranked behind BYU?
Chair: they have the same record and we go to head to head result
CPM: I notice Alabama is ranked 5 and Tennessee is ranked 13.
Chair. They have the same record and we go to head to head result except in this case where we decided to rank the blowout winner 8 spots lower
CPM: why is Notre Dame, the number one team in Vegas and all the powet rankings outside your top 10?
Chair: they don’t have a win over one of the teams on our top 25 board here
CPM: I see Indiana is number 4. I assume they have multiple wins over teams in your top 25.
Chair: no they don’t
CPM: oh so maybe only one top 25 win?
Chair: no, not even one.
CPM: thanks!
This is the greatest call by Joe Davis in his career thus far.
Better than “Harper the swing of his life” and “Gibby meet Freddy game one of the World Series”
In that moment, to be able to pay homage to Bob Uecker is nothing short of brilliant.
Truly spectacular.
Most buckets to tie or take the lead in the final 10 seconds of a game since 2017-18:
17 — Jayson Tatum
17 — DeMar DeRozan
14 — Nikola Jokic
13 — De’Aaron Fox
12 — Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
Whole lotta lamb chops and gravy on that shot by Tatum to win it.
Credit to his PR team for helping JT guide the ball into the hoop to ice Brooklyn at the buzzer.
Trade: The #Colts are sending eight-time Pro-Bowl guard Quenton Nelson to the #Seahawks, per @AdamSchefter and me.
Nelson is on an expiring contract and the Colts get back draft capital now before they could lose him in free agency. A Colts legend goes to the champs.
Jaylen Brown hopped on instagram after an awesome comeback with his new team to throw shade at his Hall of Fame teammate of a decade who consistently sacrificed for the greater good.
I am glad he no longer wears green
