They have a very good chance if they stay healthy. They have an amazing core of Medjid, Mossman, North, Hall, Scales, Smith, Schleicher, et al. returning. Another year of experience should make players that were already exceptional even more so. The excellent Weeks sisters--Cassidy and Courtney--amo...

One of the many players I enjoyed watching last year for Duke was sophomore midfielder Olivia Carner. As seen in the clip, Ms. Carner is strong, bold and aggressive in her drives to cage. She's also more than willing to lay the lumber when a message needs sending. Olivia Carner should be even more d...

Another problem with growing old - the bladder gets weaker and there's more and more hair growing in your ears rather than your scalp. Weaker bladder and “draining the main vein” as we used to say as teenagers takes more time and concentration. Long gone are the days of a quick strong stream. As fo...

George Carlin telling it like it is about getting old. Great bit.

Just stumbled across this video about the 2016 national championship winning team. Some nice highlights in the mix. The ground level shot of Aly Messinger scoring the goal that made it 7-4 Heels is even more impressive from that angle. WOW was she quick! Coach Levy's postgame speech to the team prod...

LOL No its not a regional thing, it is UVM for the University of Vermont everywhere, it's even used for their web address and they call themselves UVM on the main page https://www.uvm.edu/ I know a couple UVM grads and they all say UVM maybe just confusing with the state itself which 2 letter abbre...

While the men's team no doubt went through a serious injustice 15 years ago, there are a lot of great storylines that come from the women's program too. In January of 2015 Coach Kimmel was diagnosed with Stage 2 breast cancer. She then underwent 3 surgeries and began chemotherapy which ended in Jun...

The Teddy Roosevelt quote will undoubtedly be forthcoming after the question about critiquing....right?

After the Duke men's team suffered the gross injustice of false accusations and tragically destroyed lives in the mid 2000's, I have had a special place in my heart for Duke women's lacrosse. I typically root for them against everyone except a chosen few teams that are nearer and dearer to my heart....

More from the excellent podcast The Stick Drop hosted by Sheehan Stanwick Burch. Livy Rosenzweig was asked if she tended to be the sister who liked to have more fun practicing in the backyard than her older sister Gabby. Humorous response from Livy: 72cTK7wDYrs Both sisters ended up being great rega...

What Doesn't Kill You was a great little film. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What_Doesn%27t_Kill_You_(film) (Currently free to watch on Tubi) Mark Ruffalo and Ethan Hawke play a couple of small time hoods in Boston. Here's part of a great scene from the movie shot from Dorchester Heights in South Bo...

Some hilarious jokes in Louie Anderson's debut on Johnny Carson:

In the 1951 film, Blanche DuBois sings the song that was released in 1933 and originally entitled "If You Believed in Me" later changed to the more popular title "It's Only a Paper Moon". Peter Bogdanovich heard the song while he was working on a film called "Addie Pray"...

This is a great anecdote related by former Dallas Texan/Kansas City Chief RB Abner Haynes telling how he ended up in Dallas with the new AFL even though the NFL Pittsburgh Steelers drafted him.

Roy Clark was a Virtuoso Guitarist.

"You'll never get a sash, Frank. You're not a pimp. You gotta be a rich pimp to get a sash like that. You're a cop--not a "pillar of the community".
