Would it be overly mean if I do a future donation in honor of every transfer away from Stanford WBB?

Every single Republic fan in the stands was absolutely sure he’d score to win it for us

Don’t forget the California State Fair tramway to nowhere!

Our “no good scoring chances for anybody” style of play that drives me batty in USL play is a real asset against an MLS team

I’m gonna say this is probably the first time that James Rodríguez has played a match with a waterslide in view of the pitch #MNUFC

James Rodriguez has had a storied career but his journey is finally complete now that he’s played in the US open cup on a Tuesday night in Sacramento in front of yours truly

OK, so we have four established guards/wings in Twidale, Maul, Barnes, and Sheppard, plus one incoming true PG in Perkins who can probably take a year to acclimate with the talent ahead of her. So: how badly do we need to add interior talent vs. hoping that Lagonikaki and Russell are ready now?

If I was Tottenham Hotspur I would simply have not made an unbroken chain of eight thousand appalling decisions leading inexorably to my current cataclysmic situation

We're gonna get a lite version of this after the midterms, then again when we get a new president, and again when he dies. Can't wait.

Only one way to go . . .

i will vote for any candidate who offers up this slogan

Arsenal are in 1st, Tottenham are gonna get relegated, and yet Arsenal’s fan culture is somehow maybe more toxic?

So it appears my Serious Democrat primary choices for our next governor is a sex pest, a billionaire, a silicon valley mayoral cipher, and a progressive mostly known for abusing her staff.

Is Xavier Becerra cool? Can a not-gross choice please step up?

Yeah I'm pretty encouraged with where we are. Center is an obvious question mark, but we've gone into portal seasons with more holes to fill before.

So Stanford, a school that badly struggles to add transfer, has now lost their three of their four best players, plus three reserves. If/how Stanford is able to replenish the roster will tell us a lot about if/how Stanford is adapting to modern college athletics.

My bitterness towards and UCLA success aside, it's clear that Cori Close has improved as an Xs-and-Os strategic coach over the years. Her ability to recruit talent (aided by her university's decapitation of the Pac-12) has never been in question.

UCLA WBB probably doesn’t win this title if they don’t blow up the Pac-12, making it easier to take the best players from Wazzu and Utah

That’s why I’m skeptical. There hasn’t ever been a big portal influx for any of their teams. If they do it will be a sign that Luck’s reform efforts are bearing fruit

UCLA (the university) blowing up the Pac-12 and then UCLA (the WBB team) winning a title with a voltron of talent they picked off from the rest of the conference the university destroyed is . . . distressing for me.

If they keep Ogden and add something in the portal they’ll probably be ACC average, but I’m not convinced both those things happen

For the first time in living memory, Stanford WBB might be Actually Bad next year

This team badly needs Gurr back

Nevermind, looks like it was entirely started by Geno, who really needs more practice losing

lol somebody told Dawn what Geno said on TV

UConn so rarely loses, which means it’s a precious miracle when the world’s worst loser gets to spread his wings and take flight

I am in favor of any experiment that might actually result in more open play soccer, please and thank you

Can we overlay the 33SS map into this?

I went whale watching today and saw a bunch of humpbacks and if you’re wondering if the Pacific Life whale song was playing in my head the entire time, let me assure you that the answer is YES

I’ll be thrilled when Gavin terms out here in CA, and even more thrilled when his shitty, prejudiced attempt to triangulate gets him trounced in the primary
