While having lunch, found my Pups were playing Miami on ESPN2. Up 10 with ~ 5 minutes, they managed not to blow the lead like they did v Miami in the tournament 2 (?) years ago. +11.

Almost no sample size, but the bit I saw made me think of a decent mid-major, who plays tough, scrappy defense and ok offense.

Did not expect, as their coach and start player (his son) took off for West Virginia after their success the last few seasons. New guy used to be coach at NW Mo St, where he won multiple D2 championships over the years.

I think this was a bit of an aberration, but after so many years of being a doormat in the 90s and early 2000s, I may be overly pessimistic.

Re: Tom. Also have noticed that my typing is getting much worse in old age. As I've often told younger people who are complaining about aging: "Don't worry. Not only does it get worse as you get older, it gets worse faster."

First look at long-term weather. Looks like all of Denver, Newark, and Delhi are forecasting no precipitation and light winds. Seems like good traveling day(s)!

Probably be forced down by a blizzard over BFE, Russia.
