    Chop down the Trees!

    Low scoring early. Washburn is of to a good start.

    Well, this is getting out of hand quickly. Need to right the ship here soon.

    They are hitting open treys. We are not. Utes seemingly helpless to stop the run. Familiar story. Ugh.

    Cut it to less than 10 going into the half, and maybe there's a puncher's chance? . . .

    But seriously, Solon, a couple of quick baskets or a trey before the half and it doesn't look so awful.

    Loveridge is starting to to get on.

    This game isn't available even if you have every single sports channel on DirecTV in Utah, correct?

    Loveridge over the defense! Follow up with a horrible fast break pass - Olsen was wide open!

    Right. Direct doesn't carry pac 12 network.

    I think we can match up well with Stanford if we stopped turning the ball over and taking impatient shots.

    Gage is dangerous from outside.

    Loveridge and Taylor need to work on the pick and roll. I can't tell what they are trying to do but it is inefficient and not resulting in any open looks.

    This turned ugly very fast. That last inbounds passed looked like it was in slow motion. I like the lineup in right now.

    Good pick and roll that just didn't drop. I would like to see us more active around the perimeter. We have a lot of guys standing around on offense at times.

    Stanford hitting everything. Utes doing a good job w the press but we can't hit a thing. Good game for Dubois and loveridge. Washburn had a rough second half.

    Man, that was tough to watch.

    It's only 7 months until fall basketball practice begins.

    These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives everything its value.
    One thing I have learned in a long life: that all our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike -- and yet it is the most precious thing we have.

    --Albert Einstein

    The fact that life evolved out of nearly nothing, some 10 billion years after the universe evolved out of literally nothing, is a fact so staggering that I would be mad to attempt words to do it justice.

    --Richard Dawkins

    Be kind to all, for everyone you meet is fighting a great battle.
