BREAKING: Milan Momcilovic has committed to Kentucky, he announced on Instagram 👀

[T.J. Walker @TJWalkerRadio]

Just watch where the Iowa State players’ hands are when guarding.

It is something like this *everytime*, which whatever that’s bad, but let the boys play.

But a whisper is a foul on the other end. That’s where this gets ridiculous.

[T.J. Walker @TJWalkerRadio]

You just cannot call that on Chandler with what they’re allowing on the other end. It’s impossible.

[Grant Um @gjuminger]

This says everything you need to know about the officiating

[Tom Fornelli @TomFornelli]

Iowa State leads at halftime.

[Bobby Reagan @BarstoolReags]

If you're calling that on Chandler then you better call that same shit on Iowa State every possession

THE NCAA TOURNAMENT IS THE GREATEST EVENT IN SPORTS.

[Krysten Peek @krystenpeek]

If I were ESPN, I would hire Fanta in a heartbeat and completely revamp Game Day around him. He’s engaging with fans, knowledgeable, a GREAT storyteller and is bringing a new freshness to the game. No one is doing it better.

SGA ties Wilt Chamberlain for the most consecutive 20+ point games in NBA history ⚡️

[Matt Jones @KySportsRadio]

What’s crazy to me is that Kentucky lost the game on a 9 minute stretch to end the First Half where A&M went on a 27-3 run

Yet Mark Pope didn’t call a Timeout even though he had one he would lose at halftime if he didn’t use it

That’s crazy to me

Slugger Eugenio Suárez and the Cincinnati Reds are in agreement on a one-year, $15 million contract that includes a mutual option for the 2027 season, sources tell ESPN. The best bat left on the market goes to Cincinnati, where he's expected to get most of his at-bats at DH.

[Rob Dauster @RobDauster]

That technical foul on Mo Dioubate is the worst technical foul that I've EVER seen.

EVER.

Doug Shows should never be allowed to officiate another game after that. Horrendous.

[Steven Peake @StevenPeakeKSR]

3 technical fouls before Kentucky can have an offensive possession.

Never seen anything like it before. All coming from one referee.

[Jack Pilgrim @JackPilgrimKSR]

Game completely flipped upside down in 38 seconds. What a small, small man.

[Matt Jones @KySportsRadio]

This one is even worse than the other one. This stuff has to stop for the sake of our country

SHARKS WIN!!! SHARKS WIN!!!!

ONE OF THE MOST INCREDIBLE COMEBACKS YOU'LL EVER SEE 🔥

[Peter Girnus 🦅 @gothburz]

Last quarter I rolled out Microsoft Copilot to 4,000 employees.

$30 per seat per month.

$1.4 million annually.

I called it "digital transformation."

The board loved that phrase.

They approved it in eleven minutes.

No one asked what it would actually do.

Including me.

I told everyone it would "10x productivity."

That's not a real number.

But it sounds like one.

HR asked how we'd measure the 10x.

I said we'd "leverage analytics dashboards."

They stopped asking.

Three months later I checked the usage reports.

47 people had opened it.

12 had used it more than once.

One of them was me.

I used it to summarize an email I could have read in 30 seconds.

It took 45 seconds.

Plus the time it took to fix the hallucinations.

But I called it a "pilot success."

Success means the pilot didn't visibly fail.

The CFO asked about ROI.

I showed him a graph.

The graph went up and to the right.

It measured "AI enablement."

I made that metric up.

He nodded approvingly.

We're "AI-enabled" now.

I don't know what that means.

But it's in our investor deck.

A senior developer asked why we didn't use Claude or ChatGPT.

I said we needed "enterprise-grade security."

He asked what that meant.

I said "compliance."

He asked which compliance.

I said "all of them."

He looked skeptical.

I scheduled him for a "career development conversation."

He stopped asking questions.

Microsoft sent a case study team.

They wanted to feature us as a success story.

I told them we "saved 40,000 hours."

I calculated that number by multiplying employees by a number I made up.

They didn't verify it.

They never do.

Now we're on Microsoft's website.

"Global enterprise achieves 40,000 hours of productivity gains with Copilot."

The CEO shared it on LinkedIn.

He got 3,000 likes.

He's never used Copilot.

None of the executives have.

We have an exemption.

"Strategic focus requires minimal digital distraction."

I wrote that policy.

The licenses renew next month.

I'm requesting an expansion.

5,000 more seats.

We haven't used the first 4,000.

But this time we'll "drive adoption."

Adoption means mandatory training.

Training means a 45-minute webinar no one watches.

But completion will be tracked.

Completion is a metric.

Metrics go in dashboards.

Dashboards go in board presentations.

Board presentations get me promoted.

I'll be SVP by Q3.

I still don't know what Copilot does.

But I know what it's for.

It's for showing we're "investing in AI."

Investment means spending.

Spending means commitment.

Commitment means we're serious about the future.

The future is whatever I say it is.

As long as the graph goes up and to the right.

[Grant Um @gjuminger]

Absolutely cannot allow Pope back into the state of Kentucky after this game
