We had a hardware upgrade at the server level. It was only supposed to be down for a quick reboot, but something always seems to go wrong when dealing with these things.

 

[Weezer]

Congratulations to Julian Phillips. Apparently, the Celtics love them Tennessee kids.

 

[Weezer]

Too bad Grant is expected to leave Boston.

WHAT HAPPENED

LSU won and started the apocalypse.

 

[Orange.]

Celtics traded JP to the Bulls.

 

[JT3]

Man this is a huge weekend. Hoping we can locked down 4-5 of these highly ranked kids. Gotta think we will make it tough for these kids not to commit this weekend.

First movie I ever watched in a theater.

My first movie in a theater was For a Few Dollars More. I've loved westerns ever since.

June 23, 1917

After Boston Red Sox pitcher Babe Ruth was ejected for arguing with umpire Brick Owens over walking Washington Senators second baseman Joe Morgan, Ernie Shore came into the game and retired 26 straight batters in a 4-0 win at Fenway Park. Ruth and Shore were credited with a combined no-hitter, but Shore allowed no walks, and he and catcher Sam Agnew got Morgan out as he was trying to steal.

One of the greatest "stats" in baseball history..........A "Perfect Game" that wasn't Perfect.

Fahr Barnes.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Is it really amazing though? Seems like it would've been a boring and claustrophobic experience

Some idiots think seeing the Grand Canyon is boring.

 

[SoilVol]

This is why Rick Barnes is/has been so important for Tennessee basketball. He's making the Vols a destination for top recruits, and it will continue to be after he's gone.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Some people chose to sit on their couch watching tv until they are close to 100… some people die at 40 but lived a life of adventure? I don’t know which is better.

I know which is better for me

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I don’t know how “maybe people should stay away from the Titanic” got turned into “no one should take any risks” or “the coast guard should stop people from visiting the wreckage.”

Because it sounded to me that prohibiting visitation was what you suggested...if that is not what you meant, then sorry for the rant.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

It was their risk to take, but I don't consider what they were doing "amazing" IMO. They were diving on a graveyard. Not in the name of science or history, but as tourism.

Sad that they perished, even sadder for their families.

I went to Gettysburg...it was tourism, but it was history...pretty sure the history of the Titanic is also what the draw is for people.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I also find those distasteful though

Why?...Arlington is literally a graveyard, do you think it's distasteful to visit it too?

 

[jakez4ut]

Florida or LSU?

hm.

LSU.
(i did think about that for like 30 seconds before typing my answer, just for context)

I agree.
