March Madness Day 1 Recap
How about Jim Spanarkel with the straight misogyny? “I’ve learned not to argue with pretty women.” Twitter went on fire after that comment. I’m sure he’d like to have that back.
This trumpet player from VCU is love in it’s more pure form.
In closing… Go Irish.
Happy St. Paddy’s Day!
