    Basketball Rutgers Basketball G Derek Simpson enters Transfer Portal

    Agreed. No way is it a slam dunk that JMike is "better" - they both have strengths and weaknesses, but I think Derek's upside is higher, as you can't teach his quickness and handle and if he could somehow finish/pass better, he'd be very good. That's a big if though and he had all year to get...

    OT: EZ pass question

    I would pay twice as much for EZPass just so I didn't have to wait in toll lines. Never understood why everyone doesn't use EZPass.

    OT: Official 2024 PGA Tour thread

    Still has 41 of the top 50 players in golf and the top 4 guys battling to win include 3 with majors (2 last year) and the 4th is probably the best to never have won a major. Holy crap, how did that putt by Clark not drop?

    OT: Official 2024 PGA Tour thread

    Xander missed, Clark made and Harman ~15' from birdie on 18, with all three of them just one back. Nailbiter.

    OT: Official 2024 PGA Tour thread

    Surprised no posts about the TPC this weekend. Missed yesterday, but have watched all the drama today - what a rollercoaster! Scheffler with 64 to take the lead at -20 in the clubhouse, Xander and Clark kind of choking on the lead, but now in position to maybe tie Scheffler and be one down...

    Basketball Rutgers falls to Maryland in round one of B1G Tournament

    Agree with this, except the "plays hard" part. He does at times, but he also just stands around more than he should on defense, letting guys get open easily and failing to box out on rebounds. He needs to bring the intensity more consistently. I also see him being much better on offense when...

    OT: RIP to Karl Wallinger, frontman of World Party and member of the Waterboys

    At least I wasn't into insipid boy bands like you were in the 80s as a teen. I've heard you can still do the dance moves and lip sync perfectly to Menudo, New Kids on the Block and New Edition. So you got that goin' for ya.

    OT: Storm of the Century - 31 years ago this week

    At the time, it was a bit of a breakthrough in weather modeling, as models were showing a likely major snow/winter storm 4-5 days in advance, when most previous major storms were not predicted nearly that well. That was still pre-internet, so I recall being glued to TWC and watching local TV...

    OT: Storm of the Century - 31 years ago this week

    Yep - look at the map I just posted with 10-20" across much of the deep south and 4-10" across almost the entire deep south and even several inches down to the LA/MS/AL/FL Gulf coasts, which is just nuts.

    OT: Storm of the Century - 31 years ago this week

    It was clearly the Storm of the Century for the eastern US, looking at total impact of snow, sleet, rain, tornadoes, winds and record cold in its wake across the entire eastern US from Florida to Maine, including 6" of snow in the FL panhandle and up to 10" or more across much of the deep...

    Best alternative music station ever...where Matt Pinfield first got noticed as a DJ and, later, program director, leading to him eventually being hired by MTV.

    Props to Fonseca

    Thanks for saving me the typing. He's a good fan and knowledgeable, but has some major blind spots, like this one.

    Basketball Rutgers falls to Maryland in round one of B1G Tournament

    Our last 6 losses were by an average of 17. This will be 20+. Something other than just talent is just way off and IMO, it's a lack of sustained intensity and usually that happens on a team that has chemistry issues. Needs to be addressed, big time.

    Basketball Rutgers falls to Maryland in round one of B1G Tournament

    Just so bad at everything, but it starts with intensity and there is none. Pike needs to clean house and reestablish the fight and intensity his teams are known for. At least we'll have much better talent next year and if we can get that intensity back with it, we'll be pretty good. Despite...

    Basketball Rutgers falls to Maryland in round one of B1G Tournament

    It's one bad year after what should've been 4 straight tourneys after going almost 30 years w/o an NCAA appearance. Yes, it sucks, but help is on the way. Relax.

    Basketball Rutgers falls to Maryland in round one of B1G Tournament

    Pike should just put out all the scrubs and sit the starters down, as they're clearly not playing hard, with the 22-2 overall first/second half starts.
