CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) — Sam Hauser never got to experience playing in front of a packed John Paul Jones Arena because of attendance limitations caused by the pandemic, but the senior transfer made sure he and Virginia would have something to celebrate after his final home game. Hauser scored 18 points and the 21st-ranked Cavaliers ended a three-game skid by handing Miami its sixth loss in a row, 62-51 on Monday night.

We played well as a team. I couldn’t ask for much more.” Cavaliers coach Tony Bennett said one of his biggest regrets this season is that fans were not able to fill the arena and appreciate Hauser’s versatility in person. “He gave us a big lift at different times and he’s playing some good basketball heading down the stretch,” Bennett said of Hauser, who transferred from … [Read more...] about Hauser Helps No. 21 Virginia End Skid, Beat Miami 62-51

Garrabrant/NBAE via Getty Images Of all the moments of the 2019–20 NBA season — the one with Rudy Gobert touching all the mics and the pandemic and the bubble and another Lakers championship — the most lasting one, the most important one, came when the Milwaukee Bucks, in the wake of the shooting of Jacob Blake by police in Kenosha, Wisconsin, elected unanimously not to play their playoff game against the Orlando Magic in order to call for justice for Blake and for the officers to “be held accountable.” It led to the postponement of two days worth of NBA playoff games, as well as games in Major League Baseball, the WNBA, and the MLS.

The late Rush Limbaugh, who passed away last month, famously honored Andrew Breitbart on the day of his passing, March 1, 2012. Professor William Jacobson of the Legal Insurrection blog noted Rush’s tribute Monday, on the ninth anniversary of Breitbart’s death. Video and transcript, via American Rhetoric , follow: A few words about Andrew Breitbart. I’ve known Andrew Breitbart since the 1990s when he was working with Matt Drudge to help produce that page, the Drudge Report, each and every day. He grew up in West Los Angeles, surrounded by liberals, father-in-law Orson Bean, the comedian. Sometime during the 1990s, the early 90s, Breitbart had an awakening. He was constantly questioning what was all around him, which was really extreme liberalism, and he became, as many of you in the audience know, a bulldog. He literally was an indefatigable bulldog for the conservative cause. He did things that nobody else has done on the Internet where there are a lot of players. He … [Read more...] about WATCH: Rush Limbaugh Honors Andrew Breitbart — March 1, 2012

J.J. Watt, defensive end for the Houston Texans, just made a huge donation to help the victims of Hurricane Harvey. Watt created an online fundraiser and donated $100,000 to the cause. The Texans played a preseason game in New Orleans on Saturday night and had to fly to Dallas to wait out the storm. Watt posted a video message on his Instagram account telling everyone in Houston to stay safe. In his message, Watt said, “I’m sitting here watching the news and checking the internet and seeing everything that’s going on with Hurricane Harvey and the damage it’s causing back home.
