A bad day in Boulder beats a good day in Detroit 27/7/365. Welcome!

Look, I've already told Utah to suck it. There's no going back now.

If only it were that easy

A sight for sore eyes

Good news regarding Buffalo athletics is very welcome in my book.

I like his ability to get to the rim, very Burks-esque. Also, I like how every time he scored on a breakaway, he didn’t showboat but just got back on defense.

Welcome Chris!

In other news I saw Josh Scott at the game.

He was wearing a CU t shirt that was pretty faded. Looks like he’s in it to win it.

Looks like a good pick-up.

I like how he is adept with both hands and showed a good ability to finish with his left.

His shooting stroke (from the couple jumpers they showed) already looks more polished than that of Burks’.
