There is a team with a 1-12 quad 1 record being considered for the NCAA Basketball Tournament and the media desperately want it to happen. Surprise surprise, it’s North Carolina.

Welcome to conference tournaments weekend. Where every announcer seems to believe every team that they’re covering should be in the tournament no questions asked. To believe any of them the tournament would be 100+ teams. #ZeroCredibility

Aaron Rodgers hasn’t signed yet because he’s flabbergasted that his team of choice, Kansas City Chiefs, just won’t dump Patrick Mahomes to sign him.

The Score app AI is shoddy. They don’t call the 3rd month of the year Izzo because he was on vacation. #Spartans

The police were clearly bought off by the mother. Denial of ice cream is a felony. Trust me I never studied law but it’s just basic math. www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

Donna Vekic tennis outfits and facial expressions gives off the vibe of a stay at home mom at the country club who does not like her life. #IndianWells (Edited 10:59 PM via @skeetsapp.com)

I don’t care what records the Spartans and Wolverines have next year. Michigan will be walking into a mammoth powder keg next meeting in East Lansing.

Izzo opens postgame apologizing for spending time celebrating on court with players, family, his mom, Mariucci and other, then talks about the tough times MSU has had in recent years. "I'm glad I stuck around to hopefully be part of this resurgence. And not for athletics."

It comes from the program. Michigan is now, and has always been, classless garbage frontrunners. It’s their culture.

watched this like 8 times and laughed harder every time (sound up)

Wonderful column. RIP Isaac. The world desperately needs way more Andy’s. www.freep.com/story/sports...

If this wasn’t a classic trap game, I don’t know what one is. Lets go Michigan State! #Spartans

The hubris of the right. The U.S. is screwing over Canada but also whining when Canada inevitably sticks up for themselves... Like Jack Daniels executives didn’t vote for exactly this. www.usatoday.com/story/money/...

Wanted to watch the Red Wings play and the terrific outdoor setting. But ESPN traditional over produced not really focused on the game ruined it. Go Pistons!

The Pistons have to make resigning Malik Beasley a top priority. He just a perfect fit for this team.

Apparently the USS Harry Truman didn’t have accident forgiveness from Allstate… www.usatoday.com/story/news/w...

Man, Red Wings and the Pistons decided to do it the hard way tonight… But wins are wins.

Nice reminder there is decency and kindness out there. Hockey community is the best. www.usatoday.com/story/sports...

If I’m correct, the next step is for the Ravens to trade Tucker to the Browns. Then Cleveland to sign him to a fully guaranteed long term expensive contract. www.usatoday.com/story/sports...

“Legendary Detroit Pistons voice George Blaha to receive Curt Gowdy Media Award” Congratulations to George Blaha. Well deserved! #Pistons www.freep.com/story/sports...

So if YouTubeTv loses the 22 channels of Paramount they’re going to cut my bill to reflect the significant less content right…

Kids today man… Can’t handle playing where bombs are underground… 😉 www.usatoday.com/story/news/w...

Mock drafts, while entertaining, are often comically stupid. The “experts” don’t bother to know which young players ready to step up or GM and teams philosophies. Holmes ain’t drafting a guard or an undersized tweener OLB/DE in the 1st round. www.freep.com/story/sports...

Throw in the towel! Mahomes going to get killed. Eagles showing no mercy on the Chiefs. #SuperBowl

Well that weak call isn’t going to help fight the refs are for the Chiefs hyperbole. #SuperBowl

The younger me could not comprehend how important a role ibuprofen would play in older me’s life…

To all the Pollyanna Red Wings social media toadies and beat writers: THIS is exactly what many people you trashed over and over. Lets the kids play. Let them not be afraid of making a mental mistake going to get them sent down. We were on point. You were wrong. www.freep.com/story/sports...

“How embarrassing for hoity-toity Michigan, once the gold standard for all that was pure and holy in college athletics.” No. Pretentious arrogant hypocrisy IS their brand. Lie, obfuscate and deny when the light shines. The Wolverines way… www.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Pistons need to re-sign Malik Beasley. He’s perfect guy to have on the floor when Cade is out in addition when they’re both on the floor.

Death, taxes and an aging star athlete trying to get one more huge contract that they’ll never perform up to. Jimmy Butler was a great warrior. But the Miami Heat are right to say no. www.usatoday.com/story/sports...

I understand that Elmer Soderblom wasn’t killing it in Grand Rapids, but he has to stay up and get regular playing time. His skill set is really needed on the Red Wings roster.

Shahid Khan: How’s the coaching search going? Trent Baalke: They don’t want the job if the GM is still there. Kahn: We need to talk Trent… Later… Trent Baalke parting ways after four seasons as general manager

“Ben Johnson first Lions coordinator to leave for head coach job since JFK was President” And the media can’t understand why the fans are not reacting realistically… This is an event that has never happen in our lifetime. #OnePride www.freep.com/story/sports...

If the NFL ever puts a team in London, they must be named The Werwolves and Warren Zevon song is the theme song and marketing focus.

Way too early 2025-26 college football top 25

Montgomery doesn’t look healthy. Not the same power or burst. Hope it just rust… #OnePride

Huge stop! Gibbs time. #OnePride
