We Shall Overcome Song By Democrat Children

With great courage the Dems sang we shall overcome when clown Al Greene got censored.One of the dumbest congressmen is now a civil rights hero what a joke.The only thing I wish Republicans would have done additionally Tuesday night is to have provided coloring books and crayons to the democrats to help keep the kids occupied If you are a democrat and you are not embarrassed by their conduct you are hopelessly partisan.

What is happening in scholastic athletics?

Check out this story from Asbury Park Press: HS sportsmanship pledge no longer worth paper it's written on: Edelson

It's wishful but sportsmanship pledge before every NJSIAA game says all participants must respect the game, respect officials and respect opponents.

DOGE

Cutting through all of the nonsense on the news. There’s two concerns I would have.
1) Have Musk’s people going into the federal agency signed NDA’s? This is standard procedure for any consultant. The fact that somebody might be 25 years old is just downright silly.
2) Is Musk’s organization being paid for this work? That would give me some heartburn, because the work should be bid out Although, I doubt this happens with every government contract.

Bottom line is Trump is actually doing the things that he ran on. Musk is the new bogeyman because they have run out of Orange Man Bad lines.

Looking back, when Musk bought Twitter a lot of talk about what a foolish decision it was. Not sure if he’s getting the return financially, but his ownership has changed the dialogue on free speech, and the platform is now giving him an opportunity to amplify the savings opportunities they will uncover under DOGE, totally sidestepping the MSM.

Coleman

From the free board Coleman thread. Was going to post there but didn’t want to give Coleman’s agents any extra ammo.

My thought is Seton Hall must overpay and keep Coleman.

The #1 reason to do it: is not for for his play or potential. We lost our best players two years in a row and this would be 3. This can’t become a seton hall thing or we never get to the level we want. Every year agents will hound our roster and know we won’t pay. Whether true or not, all media and fans thing we have no NIL money or very very limited. We need to change the narrative starting with Coleman. In my mind, it doesn’t even matter if he is worth it with his play. Seton hall created this perception and they need to fix by overpaying players. They also need to make at least 1 big name transfer splash with a top 50 transfer besides keeping Coleman.

As far as the play of Coleman. I like him, not as good as Samuel, Dre or Richnond.

Shooting percentage is bad, need to set his feet better runnig on screens, his FT shooting sucked last gsme but overall ok. He needs to play better defense by being more physical (get stronger)…but I think he is could be a great 2nd best player, 2 guard and in a pinch a PG and is okay at the 3.

Pirates Put Down the Bonnies, 5-1, in Orlando


resize


Orlando, Fla. - The Seton Hall women's tennis team improved to 2-1 on its spring break trip after a 5-1 win over St. Bonaventure, Wednesday morning at the USTA National Campus.

The Pirates got singles wins from Paige Wise, Imogen Brooker, Isabelle May, Tamsin Hart and Ellie Coe. Doubles matches were not contested due to a lengthy weather delay.

"The team fought very hard today for this win," said head coach James Enzler. "The energy that was missing for most of our Monday matches came back today and led to some gritty wins. I'm really proud of how all the girls fought today. As I discussed with the team, the energy and determination that we showed today needs to be there day in and day out for us to continue to be successful. Hopefully we can keep our foot on the gas and carry this level of focus into tomorrow's match as well."

Coe got the Pirates on the board first with a 6-1, 6-2 win over Kelly Barnes in the No. 6 position for her first spring singles win. She was followed by her fellow freshman, May, who delivered a 6-4, 6-4 victory over Sienna Smith at No. 4.

The Bonnies got one back, but the Pirates clinched with wins at Nos. 5 and 3 from Hart and Brooker, respectively, and Wise also ended up a winner.

The Pirates will conclude spring break with a Thursday afternoon match against Saint Leo at 2 p.m.

Shaka Smart

I just got back from a short trip to Maryland & Virginia and the rumor mill is rather busy down there. There's quite a bit of noise on the coaching search for UVa. Mentioned are Ryan Odom from VCU, Mark Byington from Vandy, Bob Richey from Furman and, supposedly the leader, Shaka Smart from Marquette. Hmmm, he knows the area, coached VCU for 6 seasons, will get a bump of over a million $$ in salary per year-- Does this have legs?? Anybody hear anything??
