The possibility that love is not enough

I'm going to die. So are you.

Seems like a lot of AJs...until you start counting the Bucks' Ls. *rimshot*

[Taco Trey Kerby @treykerby]

Bucks have:

Andre Jackson Jr.
AJ Green
AJ Johnson

I kind of envy the Hawks fans who are primarily frustrated about this season's injuries. I've got another 8 months of being primarily frustrated about the extension Capela got 38 months ago.

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

@freemaneric That has been my experience. They like it at ages 2 and 4, but it's the only Halloween song that matters at age 3.

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

@flsku Yeah, this about the 10th best KU football team of the 42 I’ve seen. Arguably the most unique, too, with underachievement being so rare with this program and only a handful of terrible plays tanking the win-loss record. Most plays every week, they’re a pretty good team.

“As to the allegations that the doors were locked from the outside as soon as we put on the new pressing of Gaucho, we have no comment at this time.”

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

Chris Klieman is trying to win this game while Lance Leipold, once again, gets a fourth quarter lead and emits a sweaty, desperate desire for the game to end early.

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

KEEP PROVING ME WRONG LANCE

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

Looking forward to Leipold kicking a FG from the 3 on 4th-and-2 to end this drive to tie the game.

Not getting a strong want-to-win-this-game vibe from Kansas. I’m sure they’d all be happy to win, but life goes on either way.

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

@M_Vernon 90% of the guys involved in that play knew what was going on. The coaching staff will feel good about that.

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

Going to watch the second half. Don’t expect a comeback victory. Preparing myself for a completely original special teams mistake to put the final nail in the coffin. #kufball

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

@craigcalcaterra I recommend Hodel’s second book where he also claims his father was the Zodiac and a serial killer in the Philippines. I have no doubt Dr. Hodel was a terrible father.

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

@M_Vernon Not a good sign when the OC is a month behind me. I don't know football very well. https://t.co/7XSObcAGTx

Kansas lost the schematic advantage it had on offense in 2022 and 2023. It’s in Happy Valley now. They also miss Mason Fairchild.

This is where Kansas is talent-wise when they try to line up and beat guys in individual matchups on offense. Looks similar to the D.

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

@cocoqt81 No

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

@MattBroshar I’m over 38 wins but recognize there’s a real ceiling on this team unless Risascher is way better than can reasonably be expected, or they trade Hunter for an average wing, or they resolve their redundant competent center depth via trade to balance the roster.

LeBron’s cereal-in-the-car ad is so unfunny I have to believe Iñárritu wrote and directed it.

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

Conceivably, in some sort of pay-to-play scenario, Brock Purdy’s contract could be a bigger bargain than Patrick Mahomes’.

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

Yuli’s headed for a hip replacement now from making up for that drop.

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

I prefer the games where the Royals pitchers throw strikes.

[Bret LaGree @hoopinion]

Hilarious how angry Aaron Boone is still less angry than his dad at rest.
