I’m maybe (actually, “probably”) giving Barkley too much credit here, but I took his comments to mean “we shouldn’t be sitting here looking in at his grief. It’s wrong, this guy needs to be with his family, not thrust into being a spectacle for thousands in person, and millions on TV.” Which is how I felt. Maybe he…

You are being very chill about your marauding squirrel, but he is just the vanguard in the squirrel war to come. You are in the bronze age of this arms race, and start saving now for increasingly complex, squirrel-thwarting bird feeders.

Of course Wisconsin won. Look at the photos you posted. They got to play 6-on-5.

Eating popcorn while watching professional athlete grandson play is some life of kings shit.

Someone cross-post this to Jezebel where they seem to believe that women never, ever, ever do this.

I’m from the Midwest, so help me out here. Is “another product of the Southern California public course” a thing, or is this the nerdiest possible version of straight outta Compton?

Because of the low amount of games I always get the winners too, heavily vetted and I know exactly what I want. . and cheap. I’m a 90s…
