(Other) March 11, 2023 News and Notes

  • Bud Grant passed away today -- long-time coach of the Minnesota Vikings.  My anonymous friend also notes that there is now only one remaining living member of the 1949-50 NBA Minneapolis Lakers, of which Grant was a member (Bob Harrison).
  • As of the beginning of the World Baseball Classic, games are 15% shorter in Spring Training (2:37 vs. 3:06) because of the pitch clock...
  • Latest hazing scandal:  Harvard women's hockey -- includes decades of homophobic slurs and forcing the women to skate in the nude.
  • #4 Alabama in the SEC final.  11 point win over Missouri today (Miller had 20 points and 12 rebounds), large win over Mississippi State yesterday (Miller with 18-9-5.)  PLEASE tell me again why he's not facing the death penalty (or at least a charge of capital murder, like the man he went and got the gun for!!!).
