Upset Wednesday

You see all the upsets yesterday? Several among ranked teams and (even more surprising to me) several bubble teams losing to lesser teams. Some of the upsets:
  • #5 Oklahoma loses to #12 Missouri
  • #9 Kansas loses to unranked (and previously 2-12 in conference) Texas Tech
  • #11 LSU loses at home to unranked Vanderbilt
  • #20 Purdue loses at home to unranked Northwestern
  • Bubble team Kentucky loses at home to previously 2-12 in conference Georgia
  • Bubble team Florida loses to Mississippi State
  • Bubble team Boston College lost to North Carolina State
  • Bubble team Miami (FL) lost to previously 1-13 in conference Georgia Tech
About the only bubble team who might have helped themselves yesterday was Minnesota who beat Wisconsin.

Baseball Premiership?

Let me dream for a bit.... Major League Baseball splits into two divisions - call them whatever you want, but I'll call them "top" and "bottom". The top division is made up of 16 teams, the bottom division is made up of 14 teams. Each division has their own playoffs and champion (maybe 2 rounds of playoffs instead of 3 as there are now). At the end of each season, the worst team (by record) in the top division is replaced by the champion of the bottom division. There is revenue sharing within each division, but not across divisions. To start, the top 16 teams in terms of payroll make up the top division. Yankees, Red Sox, and so on. The other teams (Pirates, Royals, etc) are in the bottom division. Think about it - teams that are in the top division want to stay there, so even if you're having a bad season you don't want to tank it because you'll be dropped - incentive to win every game for the entire year. If you're in the bottom division, you w...

Tasker For Android

I really like my Android phone. But I was having a bit of an issue with the hands free stuff. If I would receive a text in the car, I wanted to listen to it without having to look at my phone. Then, depending on the message, I might need to reply to it. I found an app that did that in conjunction with my hands free Bluetooth device, but it worked once and then wouldn't reliably listen to my voice commands. For example, it would be able to hear "yes" and "cancel", but it would never hear the content of the message I wanted to reply. So basically it was good for listening to the message and then making me frustrated. The app also couldn't compose a new text message. Every app I looked at wasn't totally hands free for composing a text message - you had to click on a button and then you could compose hands free, but even that for driving isn't safe. Then I heard about an app that listens for your voice, allows you to compose hands free, and reads/rep...

Finally Planned A Camping Trip

We finally planned our first camping trip of 2022. Normally by the middle of May I'd have a few camping trips figured out. I don't know what it is about this year, but everyone seems to be rather busy and summer is coming up quick. Hopefully it doesn't completely get away from us this year.
