"The Washington Post sports section is not a core function of the Washington Post" is just an incredibly myopic and ahistorical take that is presented as fact.

I'll still be around on here. With five weeks or so before Selection Sunday, it makes sense to set up some sort of site/blog for bracket breakdowns. Open to suggestions on what is best on that front these days. (Open to suggestions on a lot of fronts these days).

My modest contributions to the Post are finished as well. Lot of editors to thank: @dcsportsbog.bsky.social, @mikehumeathletic.bsky.social, the late David Larimer, @jasonmurray.bsky.social, @greg-schimmel.bsky.social. Probably forgetting someone, and for that I apologize.

Simply crushed today for so many amazing and talented people at @postsports.bsky.social. Felt really fortunate to even be a part-time/occasional teammate there for the last decade.

I sometimes tell people my two favorite teams are George Mason and whoever's playing Duke. Today, for the first time in 18 years, those two teams are the same team. Let's do this, #PatriotPressure

"why are americans so anti-social, unfriendly, and un-neighborly" (long-running ad campaign about "preventing you from becoming your parents" is entirely demonization of people behaving in social, friendly, and neighborly ways)

ESPN's latest WBB bracketology has George Mason projected as an 11 seed as the A10 champions (by virtue of currently being in first place in the league at 1-0), and Richmond as a 9 seed at large. St Joe's still hovering in next 4 out. Still a long, long way to go. #3Bids4A10WBB

I'm trying to take a break from political tweets/skeets, but I'll just comment on the Hunter Biden pardon by saying I'm politically homeless because I think it's bad when politicians lie, no matter which side they're on, but it's also bad when they promise to use the courts for political revenge.

Mason didn't play a strong enough schedule, probably in part because we weren't expected to be THIS good. So there wasn't much room for error. Our RPI was 5th in the conference.

I'm still not sure exactly what to say about Mason's double-overtime loss on Saturday. It's hard to complain when you had 3 chances to win the game and failed to score all three times. The potential of this team is sky-high, but there's a ton of work needed. (1/2)

Pretty crazy ride on the @kenpom.bsky.social rollercoaster thus far this week for #MasonMBB. The blowout win over Stony Brook powered them to an 18 spot jump, only to drop 17 spots after the CMU debacle two days later. And the week isn't over: ECU looms Saturday. #PatriotPressure

George Mason takes on Central Michigan in just over 2 hours. I'll be curious to see if Mason can build on their improved offensive flow from Monday, and whether CMU will be energized or exhausted after their comeback attempt fell just short on Monday at Marquette. #PatriotPressure
