I suspect many of you are just as frustrated and furious about recent developments as I am. I’m grateful that between Curling and Basketball and American Gods I’ve had enough distraction that I have not yet damaged equipment I can ill afford to replace or gotten arrested (I’m always depressed, anxious, and angry, that’s my …

NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament 2019: Regional Quarterfinals, Day 1- Afternoon
Letting my freak Flag fly. Ok, arguably Baylor had a better day than UConn because margin. They also had a weaker seed being #1 and all, I don’t begrudge them. Not so many upsets, there rarely are in the Women’s Tournament during the Round of 64 since there is such a difference between the Premier …
