Do you know what time it is?

Crazy how even with nine conference games Arkansas still gets away with scheduling a late-November cupcake in preparation for rivalry week

[Vishnu Parasuraman @vrp2003]

ESPN has pre-determined that THIS is the toughest schedule in the country.

@sixringsofsteeI Either they add the ability to evade the luxury tax through a fake tree planting scheme or I’m not buying the game

Very kind of Senator McConnell to prominently showcase Chris Hacopian in his health update

[Jake Sherman @JakeSherman]

MCCONNELL releases a photo - and statement.

“To my fellow Kentuckians – 

“When you elected me to a seventh term and made me our Commonwealth’s longest serving Senator, you did so trusting that I’d keep showing up to fight for you every day. And over the past several weeks, Elaine and I have appreciated both your well wishes and your honest questions about what was keeping me away from the Senate.

“You all know how folks of my generation often hesitate to share the vulnerability that comes with growing older. Even in the public eye, I feel that same instinct – I can’t help it.

“But at the same time, I’ve had more than my share of experience with physical vulnerabilities. Surviving childhood polio meant spending my entire life with mobility challenges. They haven’t exactly gotten easier to manage with age. And last month, I took a fall which landed me in the hospital.

“My doctors have confirmed that I didn’t break any bones or suffer a concussion. I didn’t have a heart attack or a stroke. I don’t have any tumors or hemorrhages. But I was briefly unconscious and was taken to the hospital. While receiving excellent care over the past several weeks, I’ve also had to deal with a mild case of pneumonia.

“I can assure you that I’ve been a good patient. At my age, I tend to do what my doctors tell me to do. I’ve submitted to every test they can think of to help figure out what caused this incident. And I’m continuing to do everything they ask to speed my recovery. In fact, with signs of continued progress, I’ve been able to move from hospital care to a rehabilitation center where I’ll keep regaining my strength.

“As much as it frustrates me, this process takes time. And on the advice of my doctors, I won’t be able to return to the Senate floor to vote quite yet. But rest assured that, in the meantime, I’m not taking a break from the Senate business that matters to you. I’ve been working closely with my legislative staff on current issues, and with my Kentucky team who help me provide timely constituent services across our Commonwealth. I’ve also been keeping in touch with my Senate colleagues on the appropriations process, midterm politics, and everything in between.

“You’re right to expect your representatives to work hard for you. And part of my decision to retire at the end of my term this coming January was being honest about the demands of Senate work. But I still have unfinished business to complete on your behalf, and I have every intention of finishing the job you elected me to do.

“I’ll keep working hard to get back on the Senate floor as soon as possible. And I’ll keep you posted on the progress of my recovery. Until then, I’m so grateful for your prayers and well wishes.”

Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrims' pride,
From ev'ry mountainside
Let freedom ring!

My native country, thee,
Land of the noble free,
Thy name I love;

I love thy rocks and rills,
Thy woods and templed hills;
My heart with rapture thrills,
Like that above.

From a viewership perspective, your sport has a problem if 50% of the scoring is called back on review

Offsides must be called more quickly

While he does not specify if this was the Week 16 win or the Wildcard Playoff win, leaving either game early should make you ineligible to be Chicago’s mayor

No wonder we can’t keep the team in the city. Loser.

[Chris Emma @CEmma670]

Mayor Brandon Johnson on the Soldier Field game day traffic: "Let me tell you how bad it is — Bears vs. Packers, I'm at the game, we're losing. I decide to leave to beat the traffic. Before I get out of the footprint, the Bears had come back to win."

Ah yes. Just a small margin of…2 WAR at the start of June

[Drew Weber @DrewWeb1129]

@podoffame @baseball_ref Every stat PCA is winning here he’s either winning by 1 or 2 (H, OPS+) or it’s an irrelevant stat (PA, G). Only thing you could legit brag about is his higher WAR and you can’t deny that’s ALL from defense…

While it may be tough for a politician to remember the NBA Champion from each season, aren’t the 90s very famously one of the easiest sequence of champions to remember?

[Greg Price @greg_price11]

Reporter: "What do you say to President Trump saying he's a lifelong Knicks fan?"

Hochul: “I’d ask him to name the starting lineup of the 1993 Championship team and see how he does."

The last time the Knicks won a championship was 1973.

Several years ago, I remember laughing at a clip where LeBron pointed to his ability to “flip a play when [he] was eight years old” as an example of his high basketball IQ

But Kentucky couldn’t do it? It ruined their offense?

Maybe this truly is forbidden knowledge

[Keith Taylor @keithtaylor21]

Pope on how injuries affected the team's scheme:
"J Lo is a left handed point guard, so we made a cautious decision last spring when we secured his services, that we were going to change the orientation of everything that we did on the court to serve a left handed point guard. You might say, why does that matter? With a bunch of things. One, it actually suits a right handed big extremely well in a lot of ways. And point guards and bigs work together a lot in a general pick and roll. If you have a point guard that comes off the ball screen to his left, you get to have a big man that's rolling to his right. It's way more effective than what you traditionally have, which is trying to serve a right handed point guard, rolling to his going to his right, and a left handed big trying to roll and finish with his left. So you get straight trying to finish a right handed, yeah, a right handed point guard, and then you have a right handed big trying to finish with his left. You get both guys working their strong hand. Really, really important. And we changed the orientation of everything we did on the offense. We got all the way to the blue, white scrimmage. We lose J Lo, but we said, hey, we're going to keep it this way, because we're going to get them back. And we did get them back. And then it was just this, you know, by the time we got to, you know, through St John's to January, find like, you know, this is going to be really he finally decided to have surgery. "

The Aggies can still beat Alabama if @GregSankey has the courage to do what’s right!

[Kevin Sweeney @CBB_Central]

If I'm Bucky McMillan or Steven Pearl, I'm fuming right now that I lost a razor-thin margin game last week while Alabama had its ineligible friendly-judge-ordered ringer on the floor.

@DrLeonardBright With respect, this article is written by Dr. Lee Benjamins

“Dr. Benjamins earned a PhD in History and a Certificate in Women, Gender, & Sexuality Studies at the University of Houston, an MA at [SMU] and his BA at Texas A&M”

He may better represent academia than former students

@PFTCommenter Eh, I’d like to throw my hat in the ring for this title. My local Domino’s Pizza really seemed to gain a lot from my employment back in the day

It was a true change in trajectory that would surely give Cig a run for his money

[Clint Pressley @pastorclint]

Disrupting a church’s worship service to make a political point is disgraceful. Targeting a Southern Baptist church in Minneapolis crosses a clear line, and I stand fully with the church and its members who simply came to worship Jesus in peace. Southern Baptists, let’s pray for and stand with Cities Church. Public officials should investigate whether civil rights were violated and ensure the freedom to worship is protected.
