Conan O’Brien reveals what happened when he took a DNA test
Tom: So Conan, you are from the Boston area. And you are, I think, 100% Irish in your ancestry?
Conan O’Brien: Yes. I had a genetic test several years ago, and the doctor gave me the result. He said, “You are… I don’t see this often. You are 100.00% Irish.”
I thought this was a good thing because, you know, in university, 100% was a good thing. I said, “Isn’t this great news?” And he said, “No, you idiot, it means that you’re inbred.”
Tom: It also means that if you are 100% Irish and you are from Boston, statistically, you are unlikely to be a fan of George III and Lord Cornwallis.
Conan O’Brien: My father loved history. He instilled in me a love of history, and every April we’d go out to Lexington and Concord, retracing the footsteps of the retreating British.
I grew up with all the mythos and pageantry and adoration for the Founding Fathers, and then, as you grow older, things get more complicated.
Ron Harper is right to call it out. NBA rules grant offensive players freedom of movement, yet many routinely initiate contact with extended arm actions and displacements then receive the whistle when defenders react.
Consistent enforcement of offensive fouls such as pushing off or using the offhand would restore balance without eliminating skill or athleticism. Right now the game rewards the actor more than the defender.
Wemby and Castle the heroes tonight
Refused to let this team lose, fueled the offense and gave everything on defense
Fox made the biggest shot when it mattered most and Harper’s confidence neve wavered when shots weren’t falling
Dev and Julz were nails too
This fucking team!
Spurs center Victor Wembanyama: “It’s almost like I have to play normal, not even good. Just doing the right things is enough. When we play bad, when I play bad, is when we shoot ourselves in the foot. This is why I’m not worried. We’re going to be so much better.”

The parallels are INSANE. 🤯
A team and a group of young players who set the standard with their desire to grow, improve, make sacrifices, and their determination to achieve great goals for an Organization with a capital “O”. The future is bright, and this is only the beginning.
Go spurs go !
I still don’t think people have comprehended what the Spurs did last night
In their first playoff run with one of the youngest rotations in the league they beat the reigning champions in a Game 7 on the road to advance to the NBA Finals
I am in disbelief. WCF Champs 🏆
