37 points in a single quarter is absolutely crazy. That's a pace for 148 for a whole game, which not even Wilt could manage to come close to.

Stupid question, but is the glass generally more prone to break pounding/punching/Pauling it from the spectator side rather than the rink side? I have to think that if Thunderbeast Paul could shatter it with just one of his mighty hams, it was only one out-of-control check away from being shattered the other direction

Honestly, that's pretty impressive!

Oh okay, good call. That sounds right, now that you say it, I guess I had just forgotten that.

Sure it has to touch someone, but if you're aiming forward towards the opposite end of the court, someone is either going to touch it, starting the clock, or it'll go out of bounds at the other basket, making the other team's chance of getting a shot off equally unlikely.

Crazy. Throwing it down-court seems like a pretty solid strategy, but I have to think that throwing it low into a tangle of feet near the inbounds might be a better idea. Even if someone from the other team picks it up, they're in no position to get a shot off in half a second, let alone a decent one. Go for a really

I assure you this is the stupidest thing I laughed very hard at today.

The Big Ten Championship game, the Sugar Bowl, and the National Championship… It would be literally impossible for anyone to have a shinier 3-0 record than Cardale Jones. Good for him. I was rooting for Oregon, but I'm okay with Ohio State winning.

I guess I may have to. This throws my whole worldview into question…

Granted, I haven't been an NBA fan for 10+ years, but I was hugely into the league, its history, etc. when I was growing up, and I've literally never heard of this guy.

I don't know anything about Eddie Doucette, but my first thought was there's no way he's still alive/coherent/any good at commentary if he was doing it back when Kareem was playing as Lew Alcindor in Milwaukee 45 years ago. Then I remembered that our Suns' (who lost the coin flip to draft him) announcer Al McCoy has

With his tights halfway down.

Nick, where Julian had had "had had 'had', had had 'had had'. 'Had had' had had," had had "had had 'had', had had 'had had'. 'Had had' had had." "Had had 'had', had had 'had had'. 'Had had' had had," had had the same effect on the teacher, because it was the same thing and Nick just copied Julian's answer before

I have never seen a comment with this many stars.

That would have been less fun and way less satisfying.

I thought you were exaggerating, but I looked it up and you were right, he only scored 1,599 points in his career. What's really amazing is that he's the only NBA player in history to have more blocked shots (2,086) than points scored. Crazy.

You have my begrudging star because you put the effort in, but I want you to know that I only smirked at this comment, not laughed.

I would pay literally ones of dollars for the footage of Barkley throwing the guy through the bar window. One of my favorite Barkley stories, especially that he said the only thing he was sorry about was that they weren't on the second floor.

You know what? I think we should have a party and just settle who's fun and not at them. Party at Tom's house, Friday night at 7:00.

Huh. I must be a complete idiot, because I just now realized that #pantsupdontloot is a wordplayish rhyming response to "hands up, don't shoot."
