Quarter-Season Highlights and Lowlights
I’ve had a lot of success in my regular home leagues. This success has not followed me into my first foray in a higher-level league. Like, wow. This is so bad, 10th out of 12 in my group. I’m embarrassed and going to publicly figure out ...
Tuesday Recap: Play in Tournament Madness!
Greetings from November Madness, AKA the NBA final play in tournament pool night! Now that I read it, November Madness doesn’t work. No alliteration. There were a few exciting games, though.

Taking Offense on a Tuesday Recap
Let’s go it be the Tuesday recap! I’m not really offended, just talking about this first game:

For Halloween I Dressed Up as a Germ
Halloween was last night and we live in quite possibly the best area in the US for the candy gaining activities. My town was founded in 1705. Blackbeard made his mainland home here. There's a graveyard that dates back to 1734. Truly cool and spooky...
Atlantic Division Risers and Fallers
Man, I just realized that the NBA has six divisions. In the guise of journalistic integrity, I am contractually obligated to write one of these for every division now...

Watching Jokic for the First Time: Tales from the Couch
NUGGETS GET RINGS AND SOP UP THE LAKERS!
Last night, I got to have the unique experience of watching Nikola Jokic with someone who'd never watched him before, having it on my TV with my wife and 14 year old daughter. I loved every comment. It mak...
2023-24 Risers & Fallers: Central Division
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
We're back baby! A lot of stuff to go into, and I promise I won't write anything about any possibly disgruntled players who possibly might be traded to certain teams. I will, however, talk abo...
