Another brutal end to our year. Couldn't have asked for a better setup. E8 would have been against a spent Alabama or NC. F4 in Phoenix. Just the slightest bit of adjustment we should have beaten Clemson handily. Hope springs eternal, and I will be back hoping next season, but damn it's hard to be a...

Oregon vs Liberty in the Fiesta Bowl? Well that should be ugly.

Udub better pray they don't face us in a championship game.

Maybe somebody could check my math, but if we win out, wouldn't we be Pac South winners, and play Udub for the Pac-12 championship? What a fitting end that would be for the last year of the Pac.

Had a wonderful lunch at The Botswana Butchery. Monkfish, charred octopus and deviled duck livers. The Otago pinot was the best part. Pisa Range Estates '21. Young but wonderful. On Sir Cranium's recommendation there's a Chard Farm in the hotel room. No red hats here. No assault weapons. No Karens ...

I thought the prep tasted like orange flavored dish soap. Which considering its function, it probably is. I went full knockout anesthesia - don't want to remember anything about it.

Hey all, looking at recommendations for a university path for my son.

Thanks for the info, guys. Your cautionary tales about the path to MD in the US system leads me to think he would be better off studying overseas. He is an Australian citizen too, so maybe U of Melbourne or U of Sydney medical schools would be a good fit, or even New Zealand? I have read that certai...

Hi WSC, give me some time on this...as an outsider, but as someone who keeps up with 5 - 7 friends who attained their MDs over the past 2 - 4 years, and knew most of them and witnessed first hand their long roads from undergrad through finishing medical school there's a lot I can say about what to ...

Hey all, looking at recommendations for a university path for my son. He is 13, and seems set on a career in medicine (specifically, surgeon).

Since this requires us to travel, this seems like the right place to ask. We are looking for summer swim camp for our 13 year old, aspiring competitive swimmer. Can be anywhere in the US, any duration from 2 day to multi-week overnight camp. Anybody have experience with this? All comments welcome.

The Cats looked great, but as a long suffering Cats fan, I temper my optimism with the thought that Michigan really isn't that good this year, having lost three players to the NBA draft and restocking this year.

One other thing, does anyone know if I as a non-resident) can go to a clinic in Tucson and get the J&J vaccine while I'm there? I don't have time for a full course of Pfizer or Moderna, and Saudi has us stuck on one dose of Astra Zeneca (got first dose March 8, Saudi has paused second dose).

Thanks for the tips. We live in Saudi,so Tucson summer heat is not a big problem for us......

I will be in Tucson for about one week in mid July with my 12 year old son, visiting family and friends. Looking for tips on cool activities for a boy.

Doing pretty damned well as in a couple missed shots from multiple final fours. Tough luck, but we were in position every year, and not getting punked by mid-majors the first weekend.

It seems to me that we were doing pretty damned well in the NCAA tourney with the packline defense until we stopped having a decent point guard. Hasn't our recent poor tourney outings coincided with PJC being the PG?

I get the despair and need to do a postmortem (I lived in Tucson during the Santa Clara/ETSU years), but honestly, how different would this team look with just one change - a good PG, say even TJ?

Goddammit, I've been through too many of these seasons. I was at the UCLA game in 1998 when our best ever shot at undefeated glory and a Rose Bowl went down. The PAC is vulnerable this year, and we may not see another chance to take it for a while. Fuck it, I want it all now.

Definitely go with a VPN service. You can imagine the level of censorship here in Saudi, so we all use them. I use VyperVpn, they have lots of servers to choose from, have a "chameleon" mode to confuse sites like Netflix who are cracking down on VPNs, and don't cause any slowdown.

I guess my sarcasm needs work. I am mocking recent complaints of various posters regarding zone defense, not beating teams by enough, etc, etc.

Back to your regular programming.

waysouthcat

General undifferentiated anxieties of the program trajectory, lack of zone defense and the whole vibe of the thing.

But did we beat the awful Huskies by enough to assuage my fears?

Apparently age of consent in Kansas is 16. So consensual sex is a possibility.
