March 2, 2023 News and Notes

• Story out of Memphis with Ja Morant is getting worse by the week!  Now, reports that Morant punched a 17-year-old in the head...
• This, weeks after his posse apparently threatened an opposing team after a game.
• Couldn't happen to a nicer program...  The disrepair at Louisville's men's basketball program is epic.  They are 4-25, and the halftime shows even stink.
• This one quite literally...  They had a frisbee dog perform on the court -- except the dog decided to, appropriately, do his business on said same court.
• The Medusa lives another week on The Masked Singer, but only because Nicole Scherzinger opted to unilaterally keep Medusa in the competition (each judge gets one:  "Ding Dong, Keep It [The Mask] On") after she was defeated by a five-person "California Roll".  Yes, they dressed up a team/group of five as a sushi roll.
• The one person eliminated this week?  The Polar Bear:  Grandmaster Flash.
• The PGA Tour is downsizing events to about 80 players starting next year (at least some of the events) with no cuts.  The LIV Tour is noting the imitation.
• Another comeback win for #2 Alabama.  Down 17 halfway through the second half, they forced overtime and beat Auburn 90-85 for the SEC regular-season title and the #1 seed in the conference tournament next week.
• Murder suspect Brandon Miller:  17 points in 39 minutes.
• Two Alabama players were ejected during the game...
• but that pales in comparison to the eight women's players ejected from an SEC first-round matchup in an altercation between Kentucky and Florida.
