Dude at my former employer got hired for top job at $215,000 a year. (The job was posted from $160,000-$185,000). No college degree. Worse, he put on his resume that he did have a college degree. When it was found out, the Board of Directors by one vote says it doesn't matter because the authority w...

I will say it: the Cats are going to win. This team is really good.

cpt

Remind me again how all these years I was supposed to be rooting for USC and UCLA against non-Pac12 competition because it was good for the conference?

cpt

It’s not just that we lost in the Sweet 16. We played terrible 3 games in a row. We played soft and many guys played with no heart. We never looked like a one seed. We looked like a 8-9 seed that snuck into the tournament. 3 games. Sorry, this season will forever have a bad taste for me.

cpt

I’m worried Lloyd will be just like Miller. Great in-season coach. Shitty tournament coach.

cpt

I really thought TL’s looser attitude would result in better tournament play. I was wrong. There’s just something about Arizona and underachievement in this tournament. It’s a cancer and it’s part of the program since Lute.

cpt

I could really give a shit if he comes back next year. Give me some guys who play with heart.

cpt

How the hell is this team 33-3?

cpt

It’s time to say it. We just aren’t very good. And we haven’t been good for two weeks.

cpt

Watching Michigan and still wondering how the hell Juwan Howard still has a job.

How the hell did Wisconsin get to play in Milwaukee?

I farted so loudly during my muted Zoom call today that Zoom asked me to unmute if I want to talk.

Well I work for an employer that competes for employees with people in the state retirement system and, unlike that system, it’s not a pension but is set up to mimic it. It used to be a 403b program and then we moved to a 401k a few years ago. Like government, our salaries are lower but we make it u...

cpt

Nope. And I'm sure no social security either. I don't know a single person who gets a regular retirement or pension who doesn't work for the government. I was living paycheck to paycheck and struggling to eat from about 2007 to 2011 so I missed out on making contributions to my 401k then. Well it s...

My 401k just hit $1M

I'm not a wine drinker at all but the biggest difference always seems to be between the $8 bottle and the $40 bottle and not between the $40 and the $400. I would go higher on the low end of your scale. There's less of a difference between $75 and $400 (except Pinot or First-Growth Bordeaux) and mu...

cpt

I am a wine drinker. While I love all varietals, Pinot Noir is my love. And I can tell you there isn't a Pinot less than $15 I would drink - they are all terrible. And while the $15-$20 has some good ones, the vast majority aren't. You really have to get above $30 (and probably a lot more) to get a ...

Is anyone going to point out that Bezos’ rocket totally looks like a dick?

Pathetic quarter by the Suns. Also so grating that the entire ESPN crew seems to be rooting for Milwaukee.

Bayless is an idiot

U of A losing in the First Round with Ayton is Exhibit A in the case of how shitty of a game coach Sean Miller was

Fuck these officials

cpt

I would like to know where he will be buried so I can piss on it.

No Brady, TB doesn’t sniff the playoffs let alone win a Super Bowl.

Yes thank you for bringing it back - missed it these last few days

In 1997, I worked in the State Senate. A few days after the championship - which I drove down to witness at Gentle Ben's - the Legislature passed a resolution in the team's honor. Lute came up for it he was hanging out in one of the Senator's offices (Soltero) before going on the floor. Senator Solt...

What fast food restaurant makes you have to take a dump the fastest after eating it? For me it’s Chipotle.

I disagree with the assertion that Arizona was a dumpster fire when Miller took over. Every great coach in the country took a hard look at that vacancy because the foundations of the program are solid: close to California for great recruits, top-tier facilities, top-tier fans, top-tier pay and a tr...

I'd take that bet.

Me too. Arizona will be a top job when Miller leaves - for all the reasons I posted before.

How many years did Mark Few fail to get past the Sweet 16 at Gonzaga? They were notorious for blazing through the WCC and flaming out. Still, just one Final Four and that was helped by a 5th year point guard. Arizona’s best players are too good to stay in college more than a few years. Is Few being...

Yep. Non conference.

That’s bullshit. If you play a team in your conference, that counts.

We made Dawson Garcia's final 7. I'd expect us to get an official and be one of the main finalists. "Final 7"...lol! Remember when guys pretty much made it clear it was between 2 to 3 schools tops?

I am pro-workplace silo. I know it is seemingly universally accepted that silos are bad. They’re not. Here’s my case for the workplace silo. First, silos create the ultimate buy-in. This is YOURS - to make great, to fuck up or anything in-between. You feel good knowing there is something you can con...

I smoked a 20 pound pork shoulder over the weekend (22 hours!) over hickory and apple wood. Had a bunch of people over but still have about half of that left. It is legit.

If Nico Mannion doesn't commit come to Arizona this Fall - and draw the rest of the class with him - Sean Miller is out of a job right now.

Fuck the ACC

There was a clear foul before that ball knocked out

So apparently if Duke isn’t in the championship game but another ACC team is, they get the Duke calls.

I heard Jay Wright say something interesting. Basically he said when you have a veteran team you can introduce wrinkles into the game plan in the tourney and catch your opponents off guard, but when you have a bunch of first year players you don’t want to confuse them so you stick to the things you...

You act like that’s what we were reduced to. We weren’t. That was a bonehead move by Livengood which no one supported.

Wtf is the point of bitching about Miller's coaching? Barring some unforeseen shadiness he's our coach next year. His team's performance along with his 2020 recruiting will dictate if he'll be the coach the following year. Deal with it. Here's my point: I don't get the fear of him leaving/being fir...

Sean Miller needs Arizona more than Arizona needs Sean Miller. It's been that way from the beginning and its that way now. Arizona is a top 10 job, maybe a top 5 job. Is Sean Miller a top 10 coach? Right now, I'd say nope. And not over his tenure either. He's a top 10 recruiter for sure. But even w...
