California CC calendar is bit a different from the university calendar. We started this semester on February 2nd (which was great in terms of enjoying the YOG).

 

I don’t know a lot about those schools, but you should consider California  (I’m assuming Oakland U is in Michigan because I haven’t heard of it). 

Yes Oakland U is in Michigan. About 15 minutes from where I live. As much as I would want to go to school in California, it is too damn expensive. 

 

Anyway, I am heading off to bed, good night and stay safe!

I feel bad for all our veterans with PTSD tonight. People are going apeshit with fireworks where I live.

Luckily they have stopped here because I am about to go to bed.

NBC Olympics has updated their “sports” tab. It gives good descriptions of competition format for pretty much every event.

This is honestly pretty useful, there were some sports (notably surfing) where I wasn't sure of the exact competition format.

 

Men's and women's doubles in Tennis being two set matches with a super tie-break third set breaks my heart, though.

Hoping for a safe and fair election today! Certainly interesting that the future of our country depends on today!

NBC is shutting down NBC Sports Network at the end of the year . All of their sporting events will likely head to Peacock. I think we will see more and more sports heading to streaming services in the near future.
