***************************

Friday’s List of 13: Random stuff with weekend here…….

13) Annual tradition here in not-so-beautiful upstate New York. When it snows outside, and it is snowing now. I get on the Interweb and price condos in Las Vegas, where snow is merely a rumor.

Snow is the only bad part of living here; nothing is quite as much fun as getting up on a step-ladder to sweep the snow off my satellite dish.

12) Last year at this time the Miami Marlins sold off their whole outfield; Stanton, Ozuna and Yelich. Wonder what the odds were that of those three guys, Christian Yelich would be the MVP this season? He had a great year, leading Milwaukee to a playoff berth.

11) San Diego Union-Tribune writer John Maffei is the only one out of 30 voters who didn’t vote for Jacob deGrom for the NL Cy Young Award. Mr Maffei values W-L record as a stat, so deGrom’s 10-9 record for a dismal Mets team didn’t impress him much.

10) UConn 83, Syracuse 76— Huskies made 12-21 behind arc; Syracuse was playing without G Howard; things aren’t as easy when you play away from home.

9) DePaul 72, Penn State 70 OT— Nittany Lions jumped out to 11-0 lead, trailed 36-31 at half, then forced OT, where they missed wide open, game-tying jumper at end of OT. DePaul is 3-0 for first time in ten years.

8) Ohio State 69, Creighton 60— Second quality road win for the young Buckeyes, who won at Cincinnati last week.

7) Seahawks 27, Packers 24— Seattle outrushed Green Bay 173-48; Packers converted only 3-11 third down plays. 46-yard FG Crosby missed when Packers led 7-0 turned out to be painful.

6) Houston Rockets and Carmelo Anthony parted ways after 10 games; who thought this pairing was going to be a good idea? Anthony didn’t want to come off the bench, but when you get older and your skills decline, what did he think was going to happen?

5) Lakers’ G Rajon Rondo broke his hand, is out 3-5 weeks.

4) Former LSU football coach Les Miles took a one-time lump sum payment of $1.5M from the school, reduced from the $6.5M he was scheduled to get over the next five years, but that tells me that Miles is going to be a head coach somewhere else next season. If he took the $6.5M, he would’ve had to stay out of coaching until 2023.

3) Someone on Twitter posted a list of their ten favorite airports, and it started a firestorm of responses; since I only fly to one place, and it is usually a non-stop flight, my list is short:

1) Las Vegas
2) Albany
3) Baltimore (sometimes my flights stop there; they have a Chick-fil-A)

2) Cal Bears postponed their basketball game with Detroit Mercy Thursday night because of poor air quality in the area due to the wild fires. San Francisco also postponed Friday night’s home basketball game with Arizona State.

1) Jim Boeheim has been the basketball coach at Syracuse for 43 years; he played for the Orange, was an assistant coach there before being head coach. Boeheim’s son Buddy is a player for Syracuse now; how the hell do they spell the kid’s last name wrong on his orange jersey?

Armadillo's Write-Up

Friday, November 16

Harvard split its first two D-I games, losing by 10 to Northeastern, winning at UMass by 3; Crimson is one of four D-I teams in country with all five starters back from LY- they made 41.3% of 3’s in last two games. Rhode Island beat a stiff by 34, then lost by 11 at Charleston, going 2-20 on foul line. URI has a new coach and no senior starters. A-14 home favorites are 5-7 vs spread; Ivy League underdogs are 3-1 so far this season. Last three years, A-14 teams are 16-13-1 vs spread when playing an Ivy opponent.

Rutgers is playing St John’s for first time since 61-59 Red Storm win three years ago in Queens, when Johnnies were down 16 with 14:04 left. St John’s scored 80 ppg in beating couple of stiffs to start season, but they were life/death in 84-80 win over Bowling Green last Friday- they were down 11 in 2nd half. Johnnies starts 3 juniors one senior- they have a 7-man rotation. Rutgers scored 92.5 ppg in beating couple of stiffs by 35-29 points; Scarlet Knights are leading country at 56.5% behind arc they start two sophs, two juniors.

Butler scored 87 ppg in winning its first two games, by 22-21 points. Bulldogs start two juniors, two seniors; they shot 73.1% inside arc in first two games, so they’re getting great shots. Ole Miss has new coach in former Middle Tennessee coach Davis; Rebels scored 1.25 ppp in their opener, a 90-64 win over Western Michigan. Ole Miss forced 24 turnovers (+12) in that game; they’ve got three starters back from 12-20 team that caused coaching change. Big East HF are 2-8 vs spread; SEC underdogs are 2-4 vs spread this season.

UNLV split its first two games, losing to LMU, beating Riverside by 21; Rebels turned ball over 27.9% of time, made just 25.7% of 3’s in shaky start. UNLV is in bottom 10 in country in minutes continuity, so they’re still getting used to each other. Oakland is 0-2, losing to Toledo by a point (led by 14 in 1st half) and in OT to Western Michigan (led by 10 in 2nd half); Grizzlies start three juniors and a senior; they generally play fast and have a few transfers. Mountain West HF are 3-4 vs spread; Horizon League AU are are 6-7 so far this season.

Long trip from Corvallis, OR to the Virgin Islands; Oregon State won its first two games by 13-19 points- Beavers are #47 in minutes continuity- their three best players are the coaches’ sons. OSU has three starters back from a 7-11 Pac-12 team- they’re still picked to finish in bottom half of Pac-12. Old Dominion beat Navy then lost to St Joe’s by 15; Monarchs lost three starters from LY’s 25-7 team— they still start three seniors. Both teams have played slowish pace this season. Pac-12 favorites are 9-7 vs spread; Conference USA underdogs are 6-7.

Wofford was tied with North Carolina with 10:37 left in their home opener, lost by 11; Terriers play a slow place, are #16 in minutes continuity- they’re 21-60 on arc in first two D-I contests. Wofford isn’t athletic, but they won’t be scared either. Stanford lost by 18 in Chapel Hill four days ago; Cardinal is 2-1 with road win at NC-Wilmington. Stanford starts a freshman and three sophs after star Travis bolted for Kentucky- they’re #333 in country in experience. SoCon road underdogs are 6-4 vs spread. Pac-12 home favorites are 8-6.

Jamaica Classic
Patrick Ewing is from Jamaica, so this trip is homecoming for him. Georgetown had solid win at Illini Tuesday, but Illini’s PG didn’t play; Hoyas start two frosh, two seniors- they’ve turned ball over 23.8% of time in their 3-0 start, which is too much. Hoyas are picked to finish near bottom of Big East. Loyola Marymount is off to a 3-0 start, with a win at UNLV; Lions’ coach Dunlap was Charlotte Hornets’ coach at one time. LMU is trying to play like Virginia now; slower pace, tougher defense. Lions are forcing turnovers 29.2% of time- they start two juniors, two seniors.

Charleston tournament
Virginia Tech has 4 starters back from a 21-12 team that made NCAAs LY; Hokies start 3 seniors, one junior- they played three guys 34:00+ in fairly easy (up 14 at half) win over Ball St yesterday.

Last 3+ years, ACC teams are 11-6 vs spread when playing a CAA opponent.

Purdue scored 88.7 ppg in its 3-0 start; Boilermakers are shooting 63.4% inside arc; they’ve taken 93 3’s, 102 2’s, curious how they do playing back/back days. Davidson has to replace a 2,000-point scorer who graduated LY; Wildcats have three starters back from a 21-12 team, are picked to finish near top of the A-14. Davidson is off to 3-0 start, grinding past Wichita 57-53 yesterday. Wildcats start two freshmen and a soph; of Wildcats’ top 10 guys, only one sub is a senior. Four Davidson guys played 34:00+ yesterday.

Myrtle Beach tournament
St Joe’s won its first three games by 15-15-20 points; Hawks have three starters back from LY, plus couple of good players who were hurt- they used three guys for 32:00+ yesterday. St Joe’s made 16-30 on arc yesterday- they scored 82 ppg in first three games. Central Florida has a 7-6 center, so shooting 3’s against them can help; Knights hammered Fullerton by 16 yesterday after blowing 20-point lead and losing previous game. UCF is a top 40 experience team; they’ve got three starters back from 19-13 team that went 9-9 in AAC.

West Virginia has young guards so they’ll struggle against teams they can’t dominate inside. WVU was 23-37 on line in 71-53 win over Monmouth yesterday; they blew 13-point lead with 7:20 left in home opener loss to Buffalo. WVU played only one guy more than 27:00 Thursday. Western Kentucky has recruited well but is young, starting a frosh, three sophs; Hilltoppers won two of first two games, losing by 18 at Washington (WKU led by 9 at half). WKU has two starters back from a 27-11 team that lost in NIT semifinals- they used three guys 30:00+ yesterday.

2K Classic, Madison Square Garden, NYC
Syracuse is playing without G Howard, which hurts; they used three guys 36:00+ in 83-76 loss to UConn last nite, when Huskies made 12-21 on arc. Orange are making 21.8% of their 3’s so far- young Boeheim is 1-11 behind arc. Only one of eight guys Orange played last night is a senior. Oregon lost three starters from a 23-13 team that was in NIT- they shot only 37.8% inside arc in loss to Iowa last nite. Three Ducks played 32:00+. ACC favorites are 13-6 vs spread this season; Pac-12 underdogs are 0-4 vs spread so far this season.

UConn made 12-21 on arc in emotional win last nite; how will they bounce back here, vs Iowa team that played only one guy more than 28:00 last nite. Huskies won first three games of Dan Hurley era; they’ve got three starters back from 14-18 team that cost Kevin Ollie has job. Iowa has all five starters back from 14-19 team that went 4-14 in Big 14; they got to foul line 33 times (29-33) in 77-69 win over Oregon last nite- they also made 10-29 on arc.

No. 12 Kansas St. beats E. Kentucky at Paradise Jam
November 17, 2018
By The Associated Press

ST. THOMAS, U.S. Virgin Islands (AP) Xavier Sneed scored 16 points to lead five Kansas State players in double figures, and the Wildcats led by as many as 31 points in the second half in their 95-68 win over Eastern Kentucky at the Paradise Jam on Friday night.

Dean Wade and Cartier Diarra added 14 points each, and Kamau Stokes and Barry Brown Jr. had 10 points apiece for the 12th-ranked Wildcats (3-0).

''Our guys have prepared well, but I don't think they realize how their opponents are preparing for us,'' Kansas State coach Bruce Weber said. ''Those guys, they know if they beat us, they're going on ESPN because we're a Top-15 team. So they're going to come at us with some emotion.

''At times, we got some good reads and made some easy layups; other times, we forced the issue. The second half, we were much better. We got some steals and some easy layups, and started to break their spirit.''

Dujuanta Weaver scored 12 points and Nick Mayo added 11 points for Eastern Kentucky (2-2), whose only lead came when Kelvin Robinson's jumper 19 seconds in made it 2-0.

But Kansas State went on a 13-5 run over the next six minutes before taking a 37-28 lead into halftime.

James Love's hook shot made it 93-62 with 1:46 to play.

''We drew the toughest team, with a Hall of Fame coach coming off an Elite Eight appearance,'' Colonels coach A.W. Hamilton said. ''We fought like crazy, we tested them and made them work. But that's the No. 12 team in the country, and we're building right now. We battled like crazy. We had some chances to take the lead early, and we just couldn't get it to go in.''

In Friday's other games at Paradise Jam:

PENN 78, NORTHERN IOWA 71

There's not much that bothers Penn's men's basketball team - and certainly not something like a missed flight.

The Quakers quickly shook off the team's travel woes to beat Northern Iowa 78-71.

Devon Goodman scored a career-high 27 points and three other players finished in double figures as Penn (4-0) rallied in the second half to advance into Sunday's semifinal games at the University of the Virgin Islands' Sports and Fitness Center.

''It's just not that big a deal, it's overrated,'' said Quakers coach Steve Donahue. ''The only way it bothers you is if you let it.

''I'm glad everyone got here safely, but there's a lot of other things that I need to worry about as a coach. We just came out excited to play basketball.''

Penn's travel adventure began at 4 a.m. Thursday, when the team boarded a bus to Philadelphia International Airport for a 6 a.m. American Airlines flight to Miami.

However, only two members of the traveling party - Donahue and one of the team's radio broadcast crew - made the flight after the rest of the team encountered problems at the ticket counter.

The Quakers' starters and key reserves were rebooked onto American flights going through Miami and Charlotte, North Carolina, and on to St. Thomas. Those players arrived Thursday afternoon in time for a walkthrough practice.

The rest of the Penn's traveling crew - walk-on reserves, managers, assistant coaches and other personnel - were booked on a JetBlue flight to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, with connections (after long layovers) to San Juan and, finally, St. Thomas.

That group didn't arrive on St. Thomas until 8 a.m. Friday - 28 hours after boarding that bus to the Philly airport.

''And we went straight to practice,'' said guard Ray Jerome, one of the 16 in the final group. ''I couldn't feel my legs. We just stayed positive the whole time. We knew we were going to get there; the question was when.''

Down 41-34 with 18:49 left, Penn fought back to tie the score twice before pulling ahead for good at 58-56 on Bryce Washington's 3-pointer with 8:56 remaining. The Quakers would go on to extend their lead to seven points three times in the final 2 minutes.

Washington and Antonio Woods finished with 12 points each, and AJ Brodeur had 11 points for Penn.

AJ Green scored 21 points, and Wyatt Lohaus and Luke McDonnell added 11 points each for the Panthers (1-2), who will play in the consolation round Saturday.

OREGON STATE 61, OLD DOMINION 56

Gligorije Rakocevic scored 15 points, including a pair of key baskets down the stretch, and the Beavers (3-0) rallied in the second half to beat the Monarchs (1-2).

Tres Tinkle had 13 points and 12 rebounds, and Stephen Thompson Jr. scored a game-high 17 points for Oregon State.

B.J. Stith scored 15 points, Ahmad Caver added 12 and Justice Kithcart had 10 points for Old Dominion.

MISSOURI 55, KENNESAW STATE 52

Kevin Puryear scored 17 points and Jeremiah Tilmon had 12 points, and the Tigers (2-1) pulled ahead in the final two minutes to beat the Owls (1-3).

Tyler Hooker and Kosta Jankovic finished with 13 points each, and Kyle Clarke added 10 points for Kennesaw State.

Williams and Lamar Morgan led Coppin State (0-4) with six points each. The Eagles trailed 45-17 at halftime and 63-20 after a 15-0 run by Virginia in the second half.

Mamadi Diakite started for Virginia in place of Jack Salt and had a career-high 18 points on 7-for-9 shooting. Salt was sidelined by a stiff back.

NO. 7 NORTH CAROLINA 108, TENNESSEE TECH 58

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. (AP) - Luke Maye had 15 points to help North Carolina to the runaway win.

Sterling Manley added 13 points for the Tar Heels (4-0), who shot 55 percent against an overmatched opponent. Seventh Woods had seven points and a career-best eight assists off the bench, including a behind-the-back pass to set up a corner 3-pointer from Cameron Johnson after halftime.

The Tar Heels finished with 29 fast-break points, higher than any total last season.

Micaiah Henry scored 20 points for the Golden Eagles (0-4), who shot 36 percent and had 22 turnovers.

NO. 12 KANSAS STATE 95, EASTERN KENTUCKY 68

NEW YORK (AP) - Bol Bol had 26 points and nine rebounds, and Oregon beat Syracuse in the consolation game of the 2K Classic.

Payton Pritchard added 18 points for the Ducks (3-1). Kenny Wooten had 12 in the first-ever meeting between the ACC and Pac-12 programs.

Syracuse (2-2) lost on consecutive nights, also falling 83-76 to UConn on Thursday. The Orange shot 35 percent (18 for 51) from the field.

Tyus Battle scored 17 points for Syracuse, and Elijah Hughes and Jalen Carey each had 14.

NO. 16 VIRGINIA TECH 88, NORTHEASTERN 60

The Hokies (3-0) grabbed control in the first half, going from trailing 24-23 to leading 46-26 at the break.

Next up is Sunday's championship against No. 23 Purdue, which advanced with a 79-58 victory over Davidson.

Tomas Murphy led Northeastern (2-2) with 11 points. The Huskies will play Davidson for third place.

NO. 17 MISSISSIPPI STATE 79, LONG BEACH STATE 51

STARKVILLE, Miss. (AP) - Quinndary Weatherspoon scored 21 points, Tyson Carter added 17 and Mississippi State beat Long Beach State.

Lamar Peters scored 16 points for the Bulldogs (3-0), and Reggie Perry had 14 rebounds.

Long Beach State (1-3) was hurt by 20 turnovers. The 49ers were led by Bryan Alberts and KJ Byers, who both scored eight points.

NO. 22 LSU 74, LOUISIANA TECH 67

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - Ja'vonte Smart made a late 3-pointer and finished with 16 points, leading LSU to the victory.

Tremont Waters had 14 points for LSU (4-0). Skylar Mays and Daryl Edwards each scored 12.

The Bulldogs tied it at 62 on a jumper by Daquan Bracey with 2:29 remaining, but Smart hit a big 3 on the next possession for the Tigers. LSU increased its lead to eight points on a layup by Kavell Bigby-Williams and three free throws by Mays.

Anthony Duruji led Louisiana Tech (3-1) with 22 points. Sophomore Exavian Christon matched his career high with 15 points and Amorie Archibald had 10.

NO. 23 PURDUE 79, DAVIDSON 58

CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) - Carsen Edwards had 29 points, and Purdue beat Davidson to reach the final of the Charleston Classic.

The Boilermakers (4-0) opened the second half with a 19-7 surge to break the game open. They are going for their third in-season tournament title in four years.

Wednesday’s quiz
LSU’s basketball arena is named after the late Pete Maravich.

*********************

Friday’s List of 13: Random stuff with weekend here…….

13) Annual tradition here in not-so-beautiful upstate New York. When it snows outside, and it is snowing now. I get on the Interweb and price condos in Las Vegas, where snow is merely a rumor.

Snow is the only bad part of living here; nothing is quite as much fun as getting up on a step-ladder to sweep the snow off my satellite dish.

12) Last year at this time the Miami Marlins sold off their whole outfield; Stanton, Ozuna and Yelich. Wonder what the odds were that of those three guys, Christian Yelich would be the MVP this season? He had a great year, leading Milwaukee to a playoff berth.

11) San Diego Union-Tribune writer John Maffei is the only one out of 30 voters who didn’t vote for Jacob deGrom for the NL Cy Young Award. Mr Maffei values W-L record as a stat, so deGrom’s 10-9 record for a dismal Mets team didn’t impress him much.

10) UConn 83, Syracuse 76— Huskies made 12-21 behind arc; Syracuse was playing without G Howard; things aren’t as easy when you play away from home.

9) DePaul 72, Penn State 70 OT— Nittany Lions jumped out to 11-0 lead, trailed 36-31 at half, then forced OT, where they missed wide open, game-tying jumper at end of OT. DePaul is 3-0 for first time in ten years.

8) Ohio State 69, Creighton 60— Second quality road win for the young Buckeyes, who won at Cincinnati last week.

7) Seahawks 27, Packers 24— Seattle outrushed Green Bay 173-48; Packers converted only 3-11 third down plays. 46-yard FG Crosby missed when Packers led 7-0 turned out to be painful.

6) Houston Rockets and Carmelo Anthony parted ways after 10 games; who thought this pairing was going to be a good idea? Anthony didn’t want to come off the bench, but when you get older and your skills decline, what did he think was going to happen?

5) Lakers’ G Rajon Rondo broke his hand, is out 3-5 weeks.

4) Former LSU football coach Les Miles took a one-time lump sum payment of $1.5M from the school, reduced from the $6.5M he was scheduled to get over the next five years, but that tells me that Miles is going to be a head coach somewhere else next season. If he took the $6.5M, he would’ve had to stay out of coaching until 2023.

3) Someone on Twitter posted a list of their ten favorite airports, and it started a firestorm of responses; since I only fly to one place, and it is usually a non-stop flight, my list is short:

1) Las Vegas
2) Albany
3) Baltimore (sometimes my flights stop there; they have a Chick-fil-A)

2) Cal Bears postponed their basketball game with Detroit Mercy Thursday night because of poor air quality in the area due to the wild fires. San Francisco also postponed Friday night’s home basketball game with Arizona State.

1) Jim Boeheim has been the basketball coach at Syracuse for 43 years; he played for the Orange, was an assistant coach there before being head coach. Boeheim’s son Buddy is a player for Syracuse now; how the hell do they spell the kid’s last name wrong on his orange jersey?

Armadillo: Saturday's six-pack

NFL trends for Week 11:

— Tennessee covered eight of its last 11 games.

— Atlanta is 11-20 in last 31 games as a home favorite.

— Buccaneers covered once in their last nine games.

— Arizona is 5-1-1 vs spread in its last seven games.

— Oakland is 2-10-2 vs spread in its last 14 games.

— Detroit is 4-11-1 in its last 16 games as a home dog.

**********

Armadillo: Saturday's List of 13: Clearing out a cluttered mind……

13) Today’s Cal-Stanford football game was moved to December 1, due to poor air quality in the Berkeley area because of the wildfires in northern California.

12) Monday is always one of my favorite sports days of the year; first day of the Maui Classic, plus Monday Night Football, but this year should be even better.

Rams-Chiefs is obviously a possible Super Bowl preview, plus the Maui Classic this year has an amazing field, eight good-to-great teams.

First round Maui matchups:
Game 1: Auburn vs. Xavier, 2:30 on ESPN2
Game 2: Duke vs. San Diego State, 5:00 on ESPN2
Game 3: Arizona vs. Iowa State, 9:00 on ESPNU
Game 4: Gonzaga vs. Illinois, 11:30 on ESPN2

Not a bad day; I’m guessing there will also be pizza involved.

11) The record for most 3-pointers made in a D-I basketball game is 15; the record has been tied twice this week, first by Furman’s Jordan Lyons, and then by Josh Williams of Robert Morris.

Lyons was 15-34 on the arc in a 107-67 win over North Georgia; Williams was 15-25 in a 104-57 win over Mt Aloysius- both of those opponents are obviously not D-I opponents, but still…….

10) It is funny how TV people change their mind: 15-20 years ago, when John Chaney had his Temple Owls rolling, he helped popularize the idea that when one of your players got two fouls in the first half, he sat for the rest of the half. It became almost an unwritten rule, and guys on TV religiously adhered to that. Keep the player out of foul trouble so he can play hard later on.

Nowadays, coaches don’t do that as much; with thinner rosters due to more transfers and early jumps to the NBA, coaches try to steal minutes here and there when a guy has two fouls in the first half, and yes, the TV guys are now saying that THIS is the right way to coach. Go figure.

9) University of Houston DT Ed Oliver, projected as a first round pick in next April’s NFL Draft, missed his 4th straight game Thursday; apparently there is tension between Oliver and the Houston coaching staff on that issue- Cougars lost two of their last three games.

Oliver and coach Major Applewhite had a heated exchange as the team walked off the field at halftime Thursday; Oliver didn’t return to the sidelines for the second half.

8) Worse news for Houston is that their QB, D’Eriq King, tore up his knee Thursday and is done for the season.

7) Green Bay Packers were trailing Seattle 27-24 Thursday night and had a 4th-and-2 from their own 33 with around 4:30 left; they punted, despite having only one timeout left and having Aaron Rodgers as their QB. Green Bay never got the ball back and coach Mike McCarthy took a ton of grief for it Friday.

Winning only Super Bowl in 13 years when your QB’s were Brett Favre and Rodgers might get McCarthy shown the door after this season.

6) Packers’ TE Jimmy Graham broke his thumb Thursday; not sure how long he is out for.

5) NFL teams who have the fewest draft picks playing somewhere in the NFL:
— 31 Giants
— 32 Jets
— 34 Falcons, Chargers
— 35 Titans, Bears
— 37 Saints

4) A 27-year-old Georgia man and his 54-year-old mother were arrested Tuesday at an IHOP restaurant in Newnan, GA after the man escaped prison, but then stopped at IHOP for pancakes, and also to meet with his children. Unfortunately the mother ran a stop sign on her way to the IHOP, which was her undoing.

The man had been slated for work release; now he’s charged with felony escape and his mother is charged with aiding and abetting.

3) Iowa 91, UConn 72— Huskies had an emotional win over Syracuse Thursday, then were flat as a pancake here, and got squashed here by the Hawkeyes.

2) Loyola Marymount 65, Georgetown 52— Lions are 4-0; Mike Dunlap is a really good coach- he used to be a head coach in the NBA and he won a national title in D-2 ball. LMU is trying to play like Virginia this year and so far, it is working.

1) RIP William Goldman, 87, who wrote All The President’s Men and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid; he also worked on the script for A Few Good Men and had a great writing career that included Marathon Man, The Princess Bride, The Stepford Wives, The Great Waldo Pepper, A Bridge Too Far, Chaplin and Misery.

RIP, sir.
