I saw both. Barbie was like a mashup of the Lego movie and Mad Men. I didn’t care for it. Oppenheimer given the Pulp Fiction treatment (non-linear time progression) seemed unnecessary. The Robert Downey Jr. character did nothing for me, but I was never a fan of his. I just thought it was odd that the focus of the movie was the Downey character’s revenge instead of the discovery of the bomb that changed history forever more.

(And if you’re tempted to see Holdovers, do yourself a favor and watch Dead Poets’ Society, Sideways, or Good Will Hunting instead. Talk about a derivative flick.)

If Juwan sees the Michigan basketball sideline again after this game, then the definition of NIL to me will be the amount I plan to donate to fund this clown show.

Now look what it will be next yr with 8 transfers and nothing in the recruiting class but LOLs.  It's one of the most complete implosions of a program ever and camp sanderson has been told to fuck off too.

"This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I'll never look into your eyes again."

I feel like the coaches have to actively try to make the team worse to be this bad.  It doesn’t make any sense to me. There are way worse teams who play way better and win more games.

Rogers was then the head coach of the National Football League's Detroit Lions from 1985 to 1988, where his record was 18–40. He went 7–9 in 1985 (with home wins over four playoff teams), 5–11 in 1986, 4–11 in 1987, and 2–9 in 1988, for a career record with the Lions of 18–40.[5] One of his more famous quotes during his unsuccessful tenure with the Lions was when he once wondered aloud to reporters after a loss, "What does a coach have to do around here to get fired?" 

RIP Darryl Rogers.  At least we still have Keith Jackson with us.

I got to give some flowers to T Will. He's developed to be an average Big Ten starter and his PRPG and PER both confirm that. And he's got 12/6 right now, leading the team in both and zero TOs... not going gently into that good night.

Name me one underclassmen who will be a starter next year. 

When your team is complete garbage at least you play the young guys.  Our young guys are ....

(checks notes)

There are none.

Someone named Harrison Hochberg is playing in our top 8.  Name me a true FR, RS FR, true SO, RS SO ready to take over this team next year.  There are none. This is truly frightening.

Someone...anyone.....please explain to me why Jace Howard is ghost screening then fading to the 3-pt line....this team is infuriating to watch - it's like they think they're playing NBA Jam and can make any shot by the press of a button.

The perimeter play is just atrocious. No one that can defend on the perimeter, no one, other than Dug, that can handle the ball or create shots. Juwan, you need guards man.
