Javy being Javy. Nothing like it.

*Roy McAvoy voice* You ever shoot par with a 7-iron?

Rory will win The Masters by six if he keeps his driver in the bag the rest of the day.

@kenwhite.bsky.social make your plans now

Watching Rory this round is like watching classic Phil. Playing roulette with the driver. He ought to hit 3W all day tomorrow.

So Rory is going to take us all for a ride today, eh?

Shout out to @cbssports.bsky.social for making me cry at the start of The Masters telecast.

last time a moonshot landed in San Diego

And while I'm posting about The Masters - read this one too:

I love a colorful story about quiet moments. This dispatch from Augusta by @kvanvalkenburg.bsky.social will stick with me for a long time.

"With the college women's basketball season behind us, it's time to move forward and close the chapter on how our semifinal game with UConn ended. "I spoke with Geno, and I want to be clear - 1 have a great deal of respect for him and what he's meant to this game. One moment doesn't define a career, and it doesn't change the impact he's had on growing women's basketball. The standard at UConn is what it is because of him, and that's something this game has benefited from. "So, I'm asking everyone to turn the page. Let's refocus on what matters most - continuing to elevate our game, creating opportunities and pushing it forward. "That's always been my mission, and it's not changing." - Dawn Statey -

"This morning, Dawn Staley and I spoke about our interaction after the game last Friday. I apologized to Dawn, her staff and her team. I've lost more games in the Final Four than any coach in history. But Friday I lost something more important. I lost myself. Those who know me know I have nothing but respect and admiration for the game and the coaches who coach it. Dawn and her team deserved to win, and they deserved better from me. Women's basketball deserved better. My university, my athletes, my former players and our fans deserved better. Dawn and I have agreed to move on, and we hope the focus will shift back to the growth in women's basketball. The game deserves it." - Geno Auriemma

Dawn & Geno both released statements about Friday’s incident today.

He always looks like someone told him they just replaced his coffee with Folgers crystals

It looks like “Big Ten Championship Game UCLA” has shown up today. What a performance.

What Ken Griffey Jr. found in the lens at the Masters (Gift Article) “There’s that old saying, be comfortable being uncomfortable. That was that whole week at Augusta."

Turns out, the man pictured on 24 different Sports Illustrated covers is getting a different view on the other side of the camera.

“The learning curve is massive. There’s that old saying, be comfortable being uncomfortable. That was that whole week at Augusta.”

"I don’t really be on social media. I don’t be on Twitter, because that is a toxic app. So I couldn’t tell you, honestly, but I’m going to say: for athletes, if you play sports, or women’s sports, stay off Twitter. Because those people are crazy on there."

This might be my all-time favorite tweet:

A couple of years ago, I made a conscious decision to stop caring about what SAS said. My sports consumption experience has been greatly improved.

I would love to read the thought bubble of that TE when he turned around

Read this:

Wish Jake nothing but the best in this move to deeper waters. He’s an excellent coach and a terrific person. Go show the (new) Pac-12 what’s up.

March Madness never disappoints

Bennett Stirtz walked off the court for the final time as a Hawkeye player, completing a remarkable college career that started at Northwest Missouri State and ended with him cementing his status as one of the nation's best players.

Sad to see a run for the ages come to an end. But if you had told me the Hawkeyes would make the Elite 8 in year one? I’d have taken it all year long.

Kevin Harlan is exactly who you want calling something this absurd

I’m not hoping to do it for a month. Just a few days will suffice.

I AM NOT SUPERSTITIOUS.

However, if you all wouldn’t mind putting on whatever you were wearing Thursday night and sitting where you were Thursday night with whoever you were with Thursday night and eating whatever you ate Thursday night … it probably wouldn’t hurt.
