2023.06.02 08:35 Able_Possession8736 Analysis of NFL Mascots (2023 Update)
Of the 32 Teams in the NFL:
Animals: 14
Birds: 5
Aircraft: 4
Humans: 12
Smallest by weight: A normal utility Bill, or an iPhone Charger.
Largest by weight: Titan (both the Greek god, and the moon of Saturn)
Most expensive: Jet
Least expensive: Charger (iPhone charger under $10 on Amazon)
Edible: 28
Non-edible: 4
Can a single adult human kill it with bare hands alone?
Yes: 18 (Cardinal, Falcon, Viking, Patriot, Raven Saint, Cowboy, Packer, Steeler, Niner, Texan, Chief, Seahawk, Buc, Raider, Eagle, Ram, Commander)
Can it kill an average adult human?
Yes: 25 (Assuming a very high voltage charger)
No: 7
Does it exist in other major sports? (NHL, NBA, MLB)
Yes: 7
For the Bills, Browns, and KC fans who seem to be particularly bothered by this shitpost of all shitposts:
Browns:
I just checked their official website and there are no players named “Brown”.
There is an assistance WR coach named Callie Brownson, and an assistance special teams coach named “Stephen Bravo-Brown” I don’t think the team is named after those guys.
Bills:
I also also checked their website. Not a single player or member of their coaching staff named “Bill”. Closest that I could find was a team photographer and an assistance grounds keeper named Bill.
I’ve heard theories that the team name is a reference to a frontiersmen from the 1800’s that is buried in Colorado.
I even googled “Bill” and viewed images and the results were pretty unmistakable. The only images that I saw were a bunch of dudes named Bill and some stock images of invoices for goods or services. I don’t know what you expect me to do in this situation.
I guess we may never know the truth.
Kansas City:
I checked their official website and lots of marketing materials, and ALL of them refer to Kansas City as the Chiefs. I didn’t find anything that referred to the team as the Kansas City Wolves. Maybe that’s a Missouri thing and there’s another team on the Kansas side that I don’t know about or something?

I didn’t hate any of these scents, just not stuff I gravitate forwards. I really enjoy musk, woodsy and clean/fresh scents as well as anything with coconut. I tend to stray from florals, fruits and gourmand scents. Thank you to bbw for sending me these! All opinions are my own and honest 😄 |

2023.05.22 22:05 OppositeShore1878 UCLA and Cal Rivalry - a bit of history
When, around a century ago, UCLA was established as a full-fledged UC campus, there was lots of angst at Berkeley because no university in the United States had, at the time, two or more branches. The worry was that a complete "Southern Branch" UC campus would absorb resources that would have gone to the Berkeley mother campus, and both would be diminished.
Instead, both grew rapidly, Berkeley continued to be an excellent institution, and UCLA grew into one on its own in decades.
From the 1930s through the 1950s with several other UC campuses added by the end of that period or in planning stages, UC administrators, many students, and alumni, led by President Sproul (see Sproul Hall / Sproul Plaza) worked hard to keep UC as one unified institution with respectful interactions and cooperation between all the branches. Sproul even started off his UC Presidency (which lasted 29 years) by moving his family south from Berkeley for half of each year and living in LA and running the growing UC system from the UCLA campus.
Rivalry in sports was fine (easy to achieve, because both Cal and UCLA students could still compete while bonding over despising USC and, to a certain extent, Stanford), but beyond that, other types of fighting or animosity between the two UC campuses themselves was discouraged. For example, there were conscious choices to make blue and gold the colors of UCLA, and to adopt a mascot, the "Bruin" which would be a close cousin to Oski. Sproul and his successor, Clark Kerr, also emphasized things like "all UC" faculty and student leadership conferences, rather than everyone sitting in their own silo.
In recent decades, however, the institutions have grown apart, which is saddening. My observation has been that UCLA may have started the trend, de-emphasizing the systemwide connection and pretending it just spontaneously appeared from the fertile landscape of the LA basin, but Berkeley has also entered into the same approach with enthusiasm. Back in the 1990s there was a strong and successful official effort to "brand" our campus as "Berkeley" first in the public mind, not the "University of California, Berkeley". This extended to every level, including doing things like putting "Berkeley", signs, rather than "University of California", prominently on podiums when campus dignitaries and visitors were speaking.
Together the two institutions and their eight UC campus cousins represent the beginning of something remarkable in research, public service, and education--a public university system unequaled in world history, with many excellent campuses, a combined population as big as a medium-sized city, successfully serving a state that's geographically and demographically bigger than many nations.
That's something we should all be particularly proud of, whether we're Cal students or UCLA students, or alumni, or just Californians at large. So stop throwing juvenile insults from either side. One campus may be a better fit for you than for me. It's certainly reasonable to discuss whether a Berkeley or UCLA program in a particular field is better, or even the comparative quality of dorm food.
But we represent together something greater than either separate part.

This extended to every level, including doing things like putting "Berkeley", signs, rather than "University of California", prominently on podiums when campus dignitaries and visitors were speaking.
Together the two institutions and their eight UC campus cousins represent the beginning of something remarkable in research, public service, and education--a public university system unequaled in world history, with many excellent campuses, a combined population as big as a medium-sized city, successfully serving a state that's geographically and demographically bigger than many nations.
That's something we should all be particularly proud of, whether we're Cal students or UCLA students, or alumni, or just Californians at large. So stop throwing juvenile insults from either side. One campus may be a better fit for you than for me. It's certainly reasonable to discuss whether a Berkeley or UCLA program in a particular field is better, or even the comparative quality of dorm food.
But we represent together something greater than either separate part.

2023.05.17 18:02 London-Roma-1980 NON-CONFERENCE MATCHDAY 5 RESULTS
And then everything went haywire. In the first four games, only once did the Top 25 team lose to a non-top-25 Team. By all accounts, this was expected to continue, especially since most of the top 25 squads were facing each other and thus far we hadn't seen much competition from those on the outside. In fact, the only outsider to beat a top 25 team, San Francisco, was now in the club.
But today, with five Top 25 matchups already in the can, things went utterly haywire as four other Top 25 teams found themselves on the wrong end of an upset. It's true that one of them had it coming with suspensions to two players, but the others were harder to see coming. With the results, there are three teams with major scalps that will be able to carry the confidence to the conference season -- especially since, in one case, they're a huge underdog.
Brace yourselves. Lots happened.
*****
Colorado 73, #25 Wake Forest 70. At the beginning of the season, the Buffaloes were picked 11th in the Pac-12 on media day. That number may need to be revised before conference play starts.
Chauncey Billups led the team with 17 points and Burdette Haldorson, pressed into starting duty by injury, made the critical defensive stop as the Buffaloes (5-0) upset the Demon Deacons (4-1) before a stunned Wake Forest Court crowd.
Haldorson, starting because of an ankle sprain to Scott Wedman, played 33 minutes and was mostly used to guard Rodney Rogers and Josh Howard. The two were stymied, combining to shoot 4-15 when guarded by the former AAU great. While Chris Paul (15 pts, 6 ast) and Tim Duncan (18 pts, 11 rebs) still got their numbers, they were troubled by the defensive gameplan, which led to fast break opportunities the other way.
"We knew we had to stick to the game plan if we were gonna have a chance," forward Matt Bullard (14 points) said after their win. "We came in here, we backed each other up, Chauncey had a heck of a game, Birdy [Haldorson] had a heck of a game, it all worked out."
On the final play, down 71-70, the Deacons attempted to hold for the final shot. Duncan was double-teamed and looked to pass it out to Jeff Teague, but Haldorson broke on the pass and knocked it aside. Billups dove onto the ball, calling timeout before turning it over, and the upset was imminent.
#1 UCLA 87, #9 Connecticut 57. Fatigue can be a factor in the Swiss system. After beating LSU and escaping Maryland, it's possible it caught up to Connecticut at exactly the wrong time.
Bill Walton, moved into the starting lineup for a "twin tower" effect, responded with 16 points and 7 rebounds to back up Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's 21 points and 13 rebounds, and the Bruins (5-0) pushed their win streak to 42 by demolishing the Huskies (4-1) in front of their home crowd.
"We didn't have an answer," Jim Calhoun regretfully told the postgame press conference. "Those are two of the best offensive players out there. UCLA is an incredible team, and if we're going to compete we gotta figure out what to do. It's gonna be tough."
Ray Allen led the Huskies with 14 points.
#15 Illinois 80, #13 UNLV 77. Both teams had a bevy of shooters, but it took a pass-first guard to make the difference.
Deron Williams' three-point play with 8.8 seconds to go set the lead, and Ricky Sobers' game-tying shot clanged off the rim, as the Illini (5-0) spoiled the Runnin' Rebels (4-1) attempt to collect consecutive Power 6 school scalps.
Meyers Leonard led all scorers with 20 points, while Shawn Marion led the Rebels with 18 points but was covered by Eddie Johnson on the final play, forcing Sobers to call his own number.
"What a win," coach Lou Henson could only say while laughing to himself. "We got a great one today."
#8 Kansas 76, #6 Indiana 49. Hoosiers coach Bobby Knight was ejected just before halftime. He probably was thankful he didn't have to see the rest of the game.
Joel Embiid was one block shy of a triple-double (20 points, 14 rebounds, 9 blocks) and Kansas outrebounded their opponents by 20 as the Jayhawks (5-0) mugged the Hoosiers (4-1) to signal their title intent.
"This team can win it all," coach Phog Allen told reporters. "I have no doubt in my mind. You just saw us beat Ohio State and Indiana, back to back. It doesn't matter who we square off with next, we can beat anyone."
Wilt Chamberlain added 16 points in limited action, sitting out the remainder of the game after getting his third foul early in the second half with the Jayhawks already up 51-29.
"Bring on UCLA," Chamberlain boasted. "Bring on Duke, Carolina, bring 'em all on. We showed how great we are today! We can beat anyone.
Walt Bellamy led the Hoosiers with 11 points.
#4 Kentucky 86, #16 DePaul 57. In the prior round, DePaul had an answer for one star big man. They couldn't handle four being rotated in and out.
Dan Issel, Anthony Davis, DeMarcus Cousins, and Karl-Anthony Towns all took turns scoring in the post as George Mikan was in foul trouble all day. The result was the Wildcats (5-0) demolishing the Blue Demons (4-1), making an emphatic statement during Statement Week.
"Coach [Adolph] Rupp got us working hard against each other all week," Davis told reporters. "It doesn't matter who we send out there. We're an all-star team. We're not afraid of anyone. We know how good we are. It's just a matter of execution."
All four big men were in double-figures as the Wildcats kept calling plays inside. Issel had 17, Davis had 15, Cousins had 10, and Towns had 11. Devin Booker joined them in double-figures, putting up 12 points on 4-6 three-point shooting.
Mark Aguirre led DePaul with 13 points. Mikan had only 7 points and was limited to 21 minutes due to foul trouble.
#11 Michigan 74, #14 Houston 68. There may only be 3 instead of the 5, but the Fabs are still the signature crew in Michigan basketball history. They showed it tonight, but they also showed that the bench will help them make it all the way.
Chris Webber had 23 points and Juwan Howard blocked Bo Outlaw's back-to-back shots late as the Wolverines (5-0) took out the Cougars (4-1) in spectacular fashion. Beyond them, however, was sixth man Cazzie Russell, who put up 16 points off the bench to key a Michigan comeback.
"Caz was the man today," Webber said at the postgame conference. "He came in when our backs were against the wall and he took us home. He's a tough guy, he showed it tonight. Hell of a show."
Houston was up 36-31 at the half when coach John Beilein swapped Russell in for the misfiring Jamal Crawford. The decision paid off, as Russell was able to shoot over Outlaw and Clyde Drexler and bring Michigan back into the contest.
"We did our best," a somber Drexler said in the locker room. "We just ran into a hot hand."
Elvin Hayes led the Cougars with 18 points and 7 rebounds.
Alabama 78, #5 Michigan State 72, OT. With both Zach Randolph and Draymond Green suspended, Michigan State was vulnerable. Alabama took advantage.
Derrick McKey had 16 points and Latrell Sprewell hit the critical three-point shot with 45 seconds left in the extra session as the Crimson Tide (5-0) upset the #5 Spartans (4-1) to set off a court storming at Alabama Court.
"You live for days like this," coach Wimp Sanderson said in the post-game interview while being cheered on by fans. "We're not going to apologize for beating a short-handed team; we just took one of the best squads in the country down. We're going to celebrate this before we get back to work. This is a hell of a win."
The Spartans, whose players were forced to sit out one game due to their role in a fight against Notre Dame, were forced to rely on Kevin Willis and Jaren Jackson Jr underneath. While both men put up a valiant effort, they were neutralized by Gerald Wallace and Antonio McDyess, who each had 13 rebounds in the upset.
"I hope my kids learned their lesson seeing this game," coach Tom Izzo said.
Oklahoma 99, #23 Arizona State 94. There were some eyebrows raised when the Sun Devils appeared in the Top 25. They won't be there long now.
Buddy Hield had 31 points and Mookie Blaylock had 17 points and 7 steals as the Sooners (5-0) used their up-tempo style to thwart the Sun Devils (4-1) on the road.
"We can run with anybody," coach Billy Tubbs said. "I've never had a group of athletes like this all at once. I figured we might as well take advantage of it, and you saw that on display tonight. These guys deserve to be on the national radar."
It appeared at first that Arizona State could keep pull a surprise win as they kept up with the speed of the "Schooner Offense". James Harden led all scorers in the game with 35 points, and Joe Caldwell wasn't far behind with 28. However, the rest of the team -- in particular Alton Lister (1-8 FG, 4 points) -- struggled to match the intensity, especially late when stamina became a factor.
"We ran out of gas," Harden admitted. "We gotta do better."
Iowa 73, #18 Georgetown 72, 2OT. In a physical battle which saw fouls being called generously and three players for each team foul out, it took the reserves to step up and make the difference. A Hawkeye hero came through in the clutch.
Chris Street's jumper as time expired went through the basket and cued a raucous celebration as the Hawkeyes (4-1) became the second team to stun the Hoyas (3-2) from the unranked in this young season.
"It's a dream come true, wearing the black and gold and lifting them up to a big win," Street said while being hugged by family and friends. "We had trouble underneath, they asked me to step up, and God helped me deliver. What a feeling."
With foul trouble causing a choppy game at the best of times, attrition quickly became the game's story. By the end, Iowa had lost Fred Brown, Don Nelson, and Kevin Kunnert to the five-foul disqualification, while Georgetown was down Jeff Green, Patrick Ewing Sr, and reserve Greg Monroe. As if that weren't enough, guard Ricky Davis was given a technical in the second overtime for shoving Sleepy Floyd, allowing Floyd the chance to hit one of two shots and give the Hoyas the lead.
Hawkeyes coach Bucky O'Connor admitted he had drawn the play up for Connie Hawkins in the huddle, but the team improvised. "Connie did his best, and what he saw was that he drew the double-team," O'Connor explained. "The kid's got great court vision, and he found Chris open as a result. Everyone on this team matters, and we showed it here."

HOW THE TOP 25 FARED
And now, a special bonus write-up because as soon as I saw the final score, I knew history had to be made.
Texas 141, Loyola Marymount 93. Loyola Marymount is famous for playing at a faster pace than anyone else. It helped them make a WCC Tournament final run last season. That result, however, may be difficult to repeat if they run into players like Kevin Durant, who did something not seen on the island in over a decade.
Durant's 70 points were the most scored in an NIBL game since 2010, and it helped key the Longhorns (4-1) to a blowout win over the Lions (3-2) in front of a Texas Court crowd that chanted MVP all night for their star player.
"Unbelievable," coach Rick Barnes said of the performance. "He went out there, he had his motor on all night, and he didn't want to come out. When he got to 60, I said to [LMU Coach] Paul [Westhead] that we wanna see how high he can fly. We found out it's pretty damn high tonight."
While LMU's stars made the most out of their speed of play -- Hank Gathers led the Lions with 38 -- there was no answer for Durant. He shot an incredible 25-41 from the field, including 8-15 from behind the arc. Throw in a 12-14 performance from the line, 8 rebounds, and 2 blocks, and Durant had an incredible day.
Kansas' Wilt Chamberlain still holds the NIBL record for points in a game from 2001. He scored 88 points as the Jayhawks beat Morris Brown 151-47. Before Durant, the last person to score 70+ in a game was Elgin Baylor, when he put up 71 as Seattle beat LMU 125-108 in 2010.

And now, a special bonus write-up because as soon as I saw the final score, I knew history had to be made.
Texas 141, Loyola Marymount 93. Loyola Marymount is famous for playing at a faster pace than anyone else. It helped them make a WCC Tournament final run last season. That result, however, may be difficult to repeat if they run into players like Kevin Durant, who did something not seen on the island in over a decade.
Durant's 70 points were the most scored in an NIBL game since 2010, and it helped key the Longhorns (4-1) to a blowout win over the Lions (3-2) in front of a Texas Court crowd that chanted MVP all night for their star player.

2023.05.10 04:23 AbbreviationsMotor60 The Celtics and Bruins lack MENTAL TOUGHNESS
When I watch these two team play, especially at home in TD garden, they always seem to play well when things are cooking right from the beginning. But whenever these teams have to face any amount of adversity, they fold.
Let's compare these teams to the Patriots and Red Sox over the last 25 or so years...
Patriots - 9 superbowl appearances, 6 wins. And in every superbowl loss they had a lead in the 4th quarter. They came back down 25 against Atlanta, down 10 against Seattle, had plenty of moments where a lot of other teams would have given up in both regular and postseason. But due to great leadership in the lockerroom and coaching and a strong mentality, they fight to the end and go down swinging.
Red sox - won 4 world series and usually dominated the world series I might add (3 total losses, 16-3). They came back down 3-0 against the Yankees, a team that won so much in the late 90s and early 2000s and at the time was considered the gold standard of being a franchise. They win the world series in 2013 after the Boston bombing happened and David said, "this is our _____ing city." And they go 108 wins and set a franchise record and dominate the Yankees, astros, and dodgers in the playoffs.
These two teams i will never ask anything from them ever again for all the success they've had that I will cherish for a lifetime.
The celtics on the other hand, are the opposite of this. When things go bad they fall apart. Go back to last year's finals after losing game 5. The team was LIFELESS AT HOME in game 6. This team has lost 2 major series in big home games. One was against the cavs in game 7, the other was game 6 against the warriors.
And the bruins? They will always be known for underachieving. Since 2000, they have the most wins and points of any franchise along with 17 playoff appearances, 3 president trophies, and multiple vezina trophy / Selki winners. Yet they only have that one playoff run thanks to 1 man who did have mental fortitude of a champion, Tim Thomas. I can go on forever talking about the teams chokejobs, it's why they are now being heralded as the Indianapolis colts of the nhl.
You can't expect talent alone to win you a championship. Talent is important, but you need to have the right mindset to win and the celtics/bruins don't seem to have that.

Here Is A First Look At The Air Jordan 38
Below you will get a good look at the newest signature sneaker from the Air Jordan line, the Air Jordan 38. Jordan Brand athlete and UCLA guard Kiki Rice was actually the first person spotted wearing the sneakers in a game during the Sweet 16 matchup between UCLA Bruins and South Carolina Gamecocks.
The Air Jordan 38 is previewed in the “Fundamental” colorway consisting of a White, Black, and Siren Red color scheme. The model is given a mid-top build, this colorway is given a White base with Black overlay panels along the mudguard as well as going up to the ankle area. A pop of color is added to the sneaker via the Red contrasting accents, while Jumpman logos appear on the tongues, heels, and insole all while being on top of a translucent outsole. When it comes to the actual tech of the sneaker such as the cushioning and materials used on the upper, that has yet to be announced.
Retailing for $200, look for the Air Jordan 38 Fundamental to release on August 18th at select Jordan Brand retailers and Nike.com. For a complete guide including official photos, release dates, pricing and where to buy, visit: Air Jordan 38 Fundamental.
