Did Ms. Brook tell Peggy that she and Larry just kissed?

Brook may be the most annoying character on that show.

She did, but Peggy clocked that shite with the "But you've just kissed a man before..." and Marian had a guilty look.

I also need another Mrs. Kirkland and Mrs. Scott showdown. I absolutely love Audra McDonald and Phylicia Rashad in those roles.

Damn. Elite 8 or bust. I guess that is what happens when you become the basketball coach at Kentucky. I understand it, and kudos to you guys for demanding excellence.

I hate it, but like you said you gotta hold the rope or you'll end up like Indiana Basketball. I don't hate Pope and as a UK guy want him to prove folks wrong.

Think it would've been such a different story last season if they were healthy. Dems the breaks though.

Depending on what opens, I'm sure Will Stein will get some calls but I don't see him leaving Kentucky after 1 year for less than an NFL job. Not with the ties he has here.

Does he actually want to be an HC? It feels like he's had decent opportunities in the past but seems pretty content with being an OC.

Charlie Weis Jr (LSU OC)

Can't help but feel like he's the next guy who will jump to an HC job.

It was a long time coming. They had been building up facilities for a bit and took some other sports D1 before they made the jump in basketball.

Thought at one point that UofL was going to hire Davenport after the hooker scandal to steward the program through violations. Didn't happen though.

I yelled "ha ha, David Letterman", thinking they had a background actor that looked like Letterman. Turns out it WAS him, with Matt Damon.

There's a fun story behind it too.

Through a lot of behind-the-scenes scrambling, according to Gilded Age EP Kate Churchill and Netflix’s My Next Guest Needs No Introduction With David Letterman showrunner Isabel Richardson. It all started with Letterman’s nearly 50-year-long quest to become a background actor.

Vulture article about the cameo

Well, there is a school I had never heard of.

---

Pretty successful former DII school (won the DII NC in 2011) that moved to DI in the 20-21 season. Won the ASUN in 2022 but wasn't eligible for the NCAA Tournament bid (which was a pretty big NCAA Basketball story) because of the 4 year waiting period when you reclassify divisions. Former long time HC, Scotty Davenport was an assistant at Louisville under Denny Crum as well as Rick Pitino.

So, you just don't know ball then?

Excited to see what Oscar and Mrs. Oscar get up to. That’s going to be fun.

Mr. Russell is definitely strung out. Not eating, super irritable. Sigh.

My God, I am so over Marian’s mopey arse. Good grief. Get over it already. She’s almost certainly going to be pregnant or will miscarry. But dreading that dragging out all season. Fingers crossed Peggy talks some damn sense into her.

Happy for Gladys with the baby but so sad for her that she won’t be able to have another.

Here for Railroad Daddy’s opium addiction and to see Agnes and Bertha go head to head.

We don’t keep a lot at the house since we normally don’t get very many due to our location (on a busy road between two big neighborhoods). This year we were the only house in the row of 7 houses that even had our porch light on. The rest all of have younger kids and I’m assuming were out.

An LSU writer for the Advocate keeps voting us 16.

It was nice having a surprise episode. The episode itself was decent.

I always enjoy watching Zahn McClarnon act. Been a favorite of mine since Longmire. He was great in the episode.
