I'm a young boomer at 61 and my Apple watch is the first watch I've worn since the 80's. I track my activity mostly although I love that I can see my texts and phone calls without having to take my phone out of my pocket. My wife even got the Apple watch Ultra for her diabetes and activity tracking. She can dose insulin right off the watch

My dad has the same watch, we bought it for him for his 89th birthday since he lives alone, likes his boxed wine, and it has a built in fall detection. That might be my future!

There are probably a ton of really good features for many people across many use categories. Does it detect kids on your lawn? Can it yell at the sky for me?

I am 63 and have and am wearing an Apple watch. But again I've always been very geeky. My first computer was a TRS-80 Model 1. And I started playing video games in the mid-70s. I was always at the arcade/bowling alley. I made tournaments playing pinball.

I can't stand wearing jewelry of any kind; watches, rings, necklaces, anything. Hate it.

Same. Outside of my smartwatch, I have no jewelry, not even a wedding ring. Metal bothers me, so I was wearing a silicone ring, but that irritated my skin too.

Anyone else think we need extra paperwork to prove Jamari is a Junior in HS? Dude looks 30. He got that Greg Oden look.

How are we doing with Diallo and Thomas? We're still recruiting both. Sounds like Thomas is making a decision soon.

I definitely wouldn't count on Zoom. There's more of a shot with Thomas, but I wouldn't say it's necessarily a great one.

I’m telling you, he is possibly the best pure shooter (high school) in the nation. And he has a phenomenal first step, which is how he gets to the rim so easily. The kid is special. Reminds me a bit of Michael Dickerson, just a couple of inches shorter.

No thanks. Jewelry is not my thing at all. In fact I think guys look like fools when they were those absurd and pretentious gold necklaces and chains. Never seen a single tattoo that made a person look better either. I just don't get the point of guys adorning themselves with that shit.

My lawn grows better when I yell at people to stay off it.

DJ Thomas is announcing his decision tomorrow. He's likely reclassifying wherever he goes.

Most likely UNLV where his daddy played which is a good decision. He would start from day 1 and then transfer next year if there is equal playing time at a higher profile team

Guess we can cross him off the list. CTL will need to find a transfer guard.
