…another relic; 2002 Rose Bowl morning-after @USAToday—complete with team hotel hyatt sticker still in-tact. Not pictured: a #Canes-sized hangover after shutting down the hotel bar with the team, coaches and jubilant fans. January 4th, 2002—weekend edition. #MiamiHurricanes

What a world when #SportsIllustrated was atop their game with commemorative championship issues; the commercials soon after the big game where you could order a package with a hardbound copy of a magazine like this. Somehow it just made it all feel bigger and more-impressive.

Also not a stretch for you to realize how many people made their done-with-X post, only to return with their tails between their legs as nobody followed them over to Bluesky; Stephen King the latest—ran back to his 6.9-million on X, as his ego didn't like only 947K on Bluesky.

Kevin O’Sullivan is now 43-18 lifetime against Miami Hurricanes Baseball and Florida just took a 136-135 series lead against Miami; which happens when you lose 43 of the last 61 games in this era of the rivalry. What a fucking embarrassment.

There's a bigger talk about all that's wrong with Miami Hurricanes Baseball. Until then, please end this embarrassing, idiotic laundry cart celebration now. Down 3-0 and doing this over a solo shot—giving up five the next inning—and losing 14-1 in seven due to the mercy rule? Pathetic.

... acquired somewhere on the Intrawebs in the late '90s—just discovered on an old hard drive today—sharing as a lifelong Gator-hater, just because. Get 'em Steve-O!

So much of the #ShedeurSanders backlash started fall 2023 when @ESPN worked overtime to make #Colorado into America’s Team—34 of 60 posts to their IG late October exposing their efforts to force-feed a tired narrative after a 3-0 start fast-became 4-4; still pushing the Buffs.

Will I be shocked if #JacksonCantwell picks #Georgia? Of course not. That said, I continue to believe the connection with Cristobal and Mirabal and the #MiamiHurricanes' focus on the trenches the past few years matter and this really feels like an authentic connection for #TheU.

Godforbid #JacksonCantwell does choose the #MiamiHurricanes, prepare for a full year of "Canes overpay for everybody"—as this designed leak about the $2M payday was done to create the bag-chasing narrative if Cantwell lands at #TheU—even though the kid said all offers comparable.

Here we go #OregonDucks writer talking about #Miami "backing up the BRINKs truck" ... as if Phil Knight didn't literally say to UO years back that his alma mater LITERALLY gets a blank from him for NIL. Face it, haters—#MarioCristobal out-recruited #DanLanning for this one. Fact.

Was always worried that late season win-streak was a fluke and fugazi; 1-6 down the stretch and outscored 24-4 in Miami’s last two games—including this ass-kicking at the hands of Cal in the start of the ACC Tournament. What a total fucking embarrassment all around.

Memorial Day is as somber one, not to be confused with Veterans Day. Today is all about honoring and giving respect to every service-member who died while serving in our proud and strong United States Armed Forces. A hearty thanks to all who were lost protecting our freedom.

Props to @CanesBasebal; survived Bama, laid out a Columbia squad who upset Southern Miss—winner's bracket mojo allowing them to absorb a 17-6 mulligan—setting up a gritty 5-4 win; and now Louisville instead of No. 1 Vandy? #Canes deserved some "luck" after years of eating shit.

Luck is when preparation meets opportunity ... pretty wild that Miami Hurricanes Baseball is headed to a #SuperRegional against a Cardinals squad that also got run out of the #ACCTournament round one—No. 9 Miami falling 12-2 to No. 16 Cal; No. 10 Louisville outlasted 13-11 by No. 15 Pitt.
