    NCAA Tourney games being played on identical floors. Absolute bullshit.

    Hearing announcers practically jizz their pants talking about Mackey Arena. Christ, give it a fucking rest.

    They may have to lie prone doing the games from Hinkle Fieldhouse. Like the Field of Dreams, It was just a movie, folks!

    The eternal question in football: Why does the defense always get tired, but not the offense, in blowout games?

    ESPN trying to invent some statistic just to show everyone how important it thinks it is.

    ESPN still doing an incredibly poor job acknowledging who broke news first when it didn't. And stop with the "confirmed by (ESPN figure here)" in an attempt to CYA.

    Uniformity sucks. I hate that the Super Bowl gave up unique logos tied to the host city years ago for the generic logo with the Lombardi and the Roman numerals. And while we're on all things Indiana, the Indianapolis 500 and Brickyard 400 used to have unique logos too -- not anymore, they're generic and meant to look alike.

    I hate that we have uniformity with logos but no uniformity with . . . uniforms. Alternate this and alternate that.

    One year remembrances of the day the world stopped because of covid (sports and otherwise). Jesus, it sucked a year ago. We all remember it. Let's live life a little.

    You don't enjoy stats like "Jokic's is the first player with >36 points, 17 rebounds, and 13 assists since Chamberlain"?
