Game Thread [2023-24] at NC State

I'm so curious to watch this one. I was at work until 8pm. I didn't check my phone until I was finish. At 7:06, I got a text from my friend to the effect of "Why do we play so bad against State? Blowout coming." And 10 minutes later, I get a text of "Okay, I've chilled out."

That friend, btw? The infamous lhysjulien (the real one).

Is this not showing up yet in ESPN for replay yet for anyone else?

In my lifetime:

Valvano >> Sendek > Gottfried > Keatts > Lowe > Robinson


WOOF.

Wonder which loser is next on deck. Wouldn’t be surprised by some retread like Pastner.

Yeah, Sendek was perfectly adequate. They thought they could do better despite all evidence to the contrary.

Dead, sad sack program. Even Wake has done more the last 30 years despite pretty much being garbage since 2010. Georgia Tech, too. State hasn’t won the regular season or the ACCT since the 1980s!

I don't miss this dude's intellectual arrogance.

Alright seriously, where the fuck is this replay on ESPN? So annoying.

Yeah, I don't see it either despite 8pm games already being available. Those can't have been over for more than five minutes.

I have it DVR'd on YTTV, but I'd be pissed if I was in your situation.

You know what's also annoying? That they changed it from ESPN3 to WatchESPN, which was annoying enough... but now watchespn.com takes you to an unsecured site. Like, how doesn't a multibillion-dollar company own that domain name?

There's a standalone site? I usually click on the "Watch" tab on Espn.com, which points to https://www.espn.com/watch, which seems to be secure.

It used to be you could enter espn3.com. Then when it changed to "watchespn" you could enter "watchespn.com" and it would redirect you. That was fewer steps and there was no chance of accidentally ending up on ESPN+, which has happened to me way more times than I care to admit.

They also completely got rid of watch.espn.com, which is inexplicable, since it's just a subdomain of their main site. Even if you're sunsetting the branding, you just make it a redirect.

I know it’s been like this in basketball forever, but you shouldn’t be able to slam your fat ass into a defender repeatedly to move the defender from the 3pt line to the lane. That’s such bullshit.

Fat people have so little in this world. Just let them have this.

Great win. Keep it up.

They have a lot of food. But dignity? Good looks? A successful career in anything public-facing?
