I keep harping on this but sports leagues are playing with fire.
Someday, we are going to look up and realize that young people were too priced out to ever become sports fans.
And it’ll be too late.
Preston Stout wins the individual national championship.
A three-time Big 12 champ and now a national champ.
He's #okstate's first individual champ since Matthew Wolff.
Dear OKC,
We were blessed with the opportunity by @HEB to go to your city for game 7 and… wow.
Transparently, with all the responses we’ve gotten from OKC fans on here, we thought a lot of hate was waiting for us at Paycom but we couldn’t have been more wrong.
99% of your fans were so kind and welcoming, even congratulating each and every one of us after the win. The pregame chant battles were nothing but respectful and filled with friendly banter.
There is a common sentiment that you have some of the loudest fans in the NBA and that might just be true. Every single one of you on your feet the entire game, every single OKC fan in the shirt, and your use of the clappers is impeccable. An hour before tip and the arena was already full. We’re still biased towards San Antonio, but if we’re looking for a second place in crowd environment, you guys are up there.
We know that this will not be the last time we see OKC in a playoff run, I imagine it’ll be a fairly consistent thing, but after 12 games this season, your real fanbase definitely has our respect and we can’t help but tip our hat.
Thank you for being an amazing host to us, we hope all of your players get healthy, and can’t wait for the NBA’s newest big rivalry to continue.

Was tactfully honest that Chet has to better without tearing him down, took ownership that he himself needs to be better too, and built Chet up and let the whole world know he trusts Chet to learn from this and put in the work to come out better bc of this. Leadership.
An incredible 2 season Thunder run comes to an end.
1 championship, 2 Western Conference Finals trips, 2 MVPs, 68 wins, 64 wins.
Just came up a few points short of another Finals trip.
Can't help but wonder how this series looks with JDub and Ajay Mitchell.
OKC will be back.
Last year, we knew everyone was coming back. That’s could not be the case this year. Could be the last Thunder game for a couple guys in OKC.
Let’s keep it going for a little longer, man. They gotta come to your house & take what’s yours. Let’s rock.
NEW: Texas Tech's Joey McGuire said he's called Abilene Christian and Texas State in efforts to schedule Texas after Steve Sarkisian's recent comments🔥
"We would love to play the University of Texas in Week one."
