Michigan Thursday: Random Thoughts

We haven't taken a long dark journey into my head in awhile, so here we go.   Bring a flashlight as there is a lot of empty space in there and please keep 6 feet apart!  :-)

• As I have been watching the NBA Bubble, I had a question.   Who was Steve Fishers best NBA player?  Webber was a 5 time all star, Howard made 1 all star game & won 2 NBA Championships at the end of the bench for the Heat, Rose played 13 years in the league.   The answer is:  Kawhi Leonard who is a two time champion, defensive player of the year, Finals MVP,  and one of the best players currently in the NBA.  

• Funny fact, saw Duncan Robinson playing golf at Disney on Tuesday.  He passed us in a golf cart.   Also saw JR Smith.  (no bubble was broken) We played the Palms course.  

• I know it wasn't the most unique idea in the world but James Franklin totally stole my Big Ten 3 Dome idea in the Winter/Spring.

• Ryan Day wants the Big Ten to play in January so Justin Fields would stay.  It's ridiculous to even consider a top 10 NFL Draft prospect to even consider playing months before the draft.   I have zero expectations for Nico or Kwity to play in the Winter/Spring.   Also is it possible that OSU's QB pot of gold run out?  Wouldn't that be nice.  

• The Nebraska situation is funny to me.   They are like a bad employee that is threating to quit if they don't get a raise and your response is "good luck at your next job".    Funny we don't hear anything from Rutgers and Maryland.   OSU quickly backed off playing in the Fall.  

• Giannis got ejected and suspended for head butting Mo Wagner.  Love it! 

• It will be very interesting if the ACC, SEC, and Big 12 do football this fall.   The state of Texas is allowing 50% capacity for fans in the stadiums.   I'm a bit torn, I want football in the fall but is the risk worth the reward?

• Deion Sanders left the NFL Network for Barstool sports as he wouldn't take a pay cut.   His goal is to become a college head football coach. 

• There are no coincidences!  The day after WWF star James "Kamala -The Ugandan Giant" Harris dies,  Joe Biden announces his VP running mate as Kamala Harris.  RIP Big Man.
