Scarlet and Gray All The Way
For all those Buckeye Fans
In the middle of Ohio,
There is a sense of pride,
Sit here and watch with wide eyes,
As the Buckeyes score,
Stand up and say,
Scarlet and gray all the way,
If you are Buckeyes fan,
Be proud to make it known,
Let victory ring,
All throughout Columbus,
The pride in being a fan,
Says alot about you,
Their winning streak,
I hope never stops,
They will take this,
All the way to the top,
Columbus should be known,
As Buckeye Country,
This is where Ohio State is located,
It is a fact well stated,
Here as the mighty Olentangy,
Meets the Scioto,
The future is bright,
As they think about tomorrow,
If you are Buckeyes fan,
Stand up and say,
Scarlet and Gray all the way.

Wild Card Weekend Recap: What Happens Now?
I think I figured out why I love Wild Card Weekend so much. It's because it's the first playoff anything of the calendar year. The NFL season starts in the fall, and once upon a time, the champion was crowned either on or slightly before New Year's. The evolution of the NFL schedule has resulted in the playoffs starting just into the New Year, and currently, the final week of the season falls on the first weekend of the New Year, with Wild Card Weekend coming a week after that. So yes, chronologically, the NFL's Wild Card Weekend serves as the first playoff anything of the calendar year.

Kristaps Porzingis
Kristaps Porzingis has spent much of his NBA career being evaluated through two lenses at the same time. On one hand, he is one of the league’s most skilled big men, capable of scoring from the perimeter while protecting the rim. On the other, his long-term value is often questioned because of health concerns and the financial commitment attached to his contract. As a result, Porzingis remains a frequent subject of trade discussions and roster analysis across the league. Standing over seven feet tall, Porzingis brings a rare combination of size and shooting ability. His skill set allows teams to space the floor while maintaining interior defense, a balance that few players can provide. When he is on the court, his presence changes how opponents defend and attack. However, his availability has consistently shaped how teams view his overall impact. Questions such as “is Porzingis injured” often arise when he misses games, reflecting how closely his health is monitored by fans and analysts. While not every absence is due to injury, his history has created a narrative that follows him throughout the season. This uncertainty plays a major role in shaping trade rumors and long-term planning. In recent months, Golden State Warriors trade rumors have drawn attention to Porzingis as a possible frontcourt option. The Warriors have relied heavily on smaller lineups, and their depth chart has often lacked size and rim protection. Adding a player like Porzingis would dramatically alter their approach, giving them a legitimate interior presence without sacrificing spacing. From a basketball standpoint, Porzingis could fit within Golden State’s system. His ability to shoot from distance would allow perimeter players such as Buddy Hield to operate with more room. Defensively, his length could help cover weaknesses inside. Still, any potential Warriors trade would require careful consideration of financial constraints and roster balance. The Porzingis contract remains a central issue in any trade scenario. His salary reflects his upside, but teams must decide whether that investment aligns with their competitive timeline. For Golden State, already managing payroll challenges, acquiring Porzingis would likely require moving key assets. Jonathan Kuminga is often mentioned in Warriors trade discussions because of his age, athleticism, and future potential. Including him in a Kuminga trade tied to Porzingis would signal a clear shift toward short-term contention. Such a move would carry risk, especially given Kuminga’s development trajectory. Elsewhere in the league, teams such as the Atlanta Hawks have also appeared in broader trade speculation involving Porzingis. The Hawks continue to explore ways to strengthen their frontcourt while maintaining flexibility. While no confirmed talks have emerged, their situation makes them a logical team to monitor. National coverage from ESPN NBA frequently highlights Porzingis as a player whose value depends heavily on context. When healthy, he can elevate a team’s ceiling. When unavailable, he becomes a financial and strategic challenge. This dual reality keeps his name active in trade conversations even when no deal is imminent. Health remains the defining variable in Porzingis’s career. Reports mentioning illness or short-term absences often lead to increased scrutiny, even when the issues are minor. The focus on Porzingis illness reflects how important availability has become in evaluating modern NBA players. Despite these concerns, Porzingis has shown growth in his approach to the game. He has become more efficient offensively and more disciplined defensively, adapting his style to reduce physical strain. These adjustments suggest a player committed to extending his career and maximizing his impact when active. For teams like the Warriors, the question is not simply whether Porzingis is talented, but whether he fits the broader plan. Warriors trade news often centers on balancing experience with youth, and Porzingis represents a high-reward option that requires confidence in health management. Kristaps Porzingis remains one of the NBA’s most complex evaluations. He is neither a guaranteed solution nor an expendable piece. Instead, he represents the challenge of modern roster building, where talent, durability, and financial flexibility must align. Whether he remains with his current team or becomes part of a future trade, Porzingis continues to shape conversations about risk and reward in the league.

Lately, I'm empty
Lately, I feel an emptiness inside of me that doesn’t make any sense. I was fine a week ago and now I’m numb to the pain that I’ve been carrying around. Numb to the idea of me existing. I wish I could go to a place where I can hear happy positive thoughts and surround myself with joy. The medication I’m on doesn’t seem to work anymore. I still feel pain from existing, why am I here anyways? Merely to exist. I don’t feel like I’m making any differences being here.
