Béisbol Tigres dropped one to a decent-looking UAB club 6-5 last night. I thought Carlson looked mostly dominant in relief duty. The tables turned when facing UAB's Tyler Harrington, who had a very impressive 10 pitch at-bat fighting off strikes and staying patient enough to lay off pitches outside of the zone.

Up next: Old Dominion on 3/7 @ 6pm to kick off a weekend series.  Next weekend, conference play begins with Vandy.

Elated to win the regular season conference title
There are two differing thoughts among the talking heads, one (from O&B honks) that last night didn't matter. The other supposedly comes from the Pope camp that the secret sauce to taking down Auburn is to force everything through Johni.
Texas A@M finally played some defense last night and really worked the boards.
They had much more to play for after dropping four straight and I think we are in really good shape heading into the dance especially with our guard play and defense.
In it to win it.

That game was rough. The energy just wasn’t there, and A&M definitely looked like the hungrier team. Broome’s movement did seem off—he looks a step slow. The lack of awareness for landmarks that the commentators mentioned might just be him compensating for the pain.

The rebounding effort was frustrating. A&M was crashing the glass for second/third/fourth chances while our guys were just watching. That’s the kind of stuff that gets you beat. Besides the effort from Pettiford & CBM, it felt like we were just going through the motions.

Deadpool/Wolverine

Let me start this by noting that Naomi Watts has the body of an 11 year old boy and the teeth of a cockney British barmaid. She's not attractive. Has nothing to do with this film, but needed to be plainly stated.

Final verdict?  Not as good as the first Deadpool, better (to me) than the second Deadpool, definitely worth watching. I'm sure I'm the last person on planet Earth who wanted to watch it who hadn't until now. So this review won't sway a soul.

i have wanted to watch and certainly would have until I read your review. all is not lost. 

though it is disturbing you mention 11 year old b*ys ...maybe it was for Snags.

The good work continues for the dicks and chicks, hopefully without dicks.

The guys went out to Arlington and took all 3 games, beating Ohio State, #8Oregon State, and Baylor.  Outscored their opponents 28-11.  They move to 11-1 on the season.

The ladies kept it rolling with 5 more wins, and sit at 19-1.  One game against Troy before they open SEC play on the road against Miss. State.

Besides football, it is fun being an Auburn fan this go ‘round.

September 5
Film focuses on the events in Munich at the 1972 Olympics when the Israeli athletes were taken hostage by members of a terrorist group which demanded the release of some Palestinians or something.

I'm a little tired of Holocaust movies and references. Yeah, it was bad, but it wasn't (by a long stretch) the worst thing humans have done to other humans in the history of the world. There needs to be some historical context.

By the same token, I'm tired of movies about and discussion of this event in Munich. Yes, terrorists did something heinous at the Olympics - like 50 or 70 years ago or something. Roughly a dozen people died. Boo freakin' hoo.  There have since been incidents of terrorism and/or just regular mayhem where as many or more were killed. Why the continual focus on this singular event?

The ones I know of?  There was a movie in the late 90s One Day in September. Speilberg did one in 2005 Munich that scarfed up Oscars. There was at least one multi-part documentary recently (on AppleTV I think) and there have been multiple (like a dozen) other documentaries on this event.  In the grand scheme of world history? Who cares? 

This film is framed very similarly to Saturday Night - the semi-true story of the 90 minutes leading up to the first broadcast of SNL. September 5 tells the story of the Munich hostage situation from the perspective of the ABC Sports crew that broadcast the event. SN was entertaining. This is morose, self-aggrandizing boredom.

It's a completely unnecessary entry in a story that's been told far more times than it warrants.

I suspect it was flung together to make some kind of commentary on the Palestinian-Israel conflict going on now. An attempt to resurrect this event to sway opinions and portray the Palestinan supporters in the worst, most barbaric light. Which is fine. Wipe them from the map. I got no problem there. This boring movie about a grainy, decades-old event wasn't the way, though.
