Re: NCAA bracket

Gotta give some credit to NC State defensively, too. They really cranked up the intensity in the final couple minutes of regulation (as did Oakland) and maintained that intensity in the OT session. Was it Townsend who refused to take what should've been a pretty easy layup attempt as the clock was w...

Re: Michigan To Hire Florida Atlantics Dusty May As Head Basketball Coach

His team reached the Final Four against very long odds a year ago (one of the bigger Cinderella stories in recent memory) and shit the bed at the end of regulation against Northwestern yesterday, blowing what should've been a win. Bill Raftery was flabbergasted on the telecast. Decent hire but not a...

Re: Nielsen Detroit radio ratings

Casey, the guy who voicetracks evenings. He was PD for the final two or three years' worth of The D, was PD of Alt 106.7, and remained as PD when the station became WLLZ. He also remotely programs some other stations for iFart, such as the craptacular station known as Rock 106.7 in Salt Lake City. (...

Re: NCAA bracket

Gene Steratore is an idiot. Oakland got screwed. The NC State player was the last guy to touch the ball; it deflected off his pinky. Thank goodness NC State missed the shot at the buzzer. edit - now the refs just screwed NC State on a call early in the OT session. Turnabout is fair play, I suppose. ...

John Mellencamp is a self-righteous asshat

Fuck him and his overrated music. Does he think he is giving a symphony performance when he's on stage and expects the audience to politely golf clap after each song? https://www-al-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.al.com/life/2024/03/classic-rock-legend-storms-off-stage-after-being-heckled-by-fans-i-...

Re: Boeing Max jets are unsafe flying shit boxes...

No doubt negligence is a factor with Boeing and just about any other manufacturers of anything. But there just seem to be too many incidents in a short period of time to be statistically possible. Like a 100 year event, like a six sigma event almost every day. Sabotage and terrorism need to be inve...

Re: Another leaving WXYZ

Scripps is slashing newsroom budgets. The so-called "newscast" that airs at 4PM on WXYZ is mostly filler. Aside from the weather updates, little if any of it is live. It is mostly dry segues from one Scripps national story to the next, mostly non-time sensitive reports. That style newscast actually ...

Re: NCAA bracket

The refs - or at least one of the refs - bailed out Kansas and completely fucked over Samford last night. Samford should've had possession down 1 with a chance to take the lead (and a possible victory) with a deuce. This phantom foul ruining a spectacular block was called with under 15 seconds to pl...

Re: Yammies aren't built so well these days...

Revisiting my earlier posts regarding the 6 ohms vs. 8 ohms setting on my Denon S760H: For now, I've settled on 6 ohms. I certainly did notice a boost in speaker loudness at 8 ohms, and the AVR's heat emission was only mildly hotter at 8 ohms than at 6 ohms. Here's the issue: for whatever reason, th...

I'm not a fan of Lauren at all. They made a major mistake ditching Allyson, in my opinion.
