In a city chock full of certified Big Drippers, Theroux is one of the most consistent there is, rarely straying far from the tried-and-true elements of his immediately identifiable uniform. Here he sticks to his typical monochromatic palette, but adds in a few key hits of green to keep things interesting. And interested I am! In stacked skinny jeans that d look passé on just about anyone else and a sturdy pair of shit-kicking boots (along with a teeny tiny beanie, worn just they way it should be), Theroux looks unmistakably himself, but somehow better than he has in ages.
Most of that glow-up has to do with the collarless snap-front coat gently cocooning around approximately two-thirds of his frame, done up in a mossy shade of green so good I ve been on the hunt for a similar-looking one since I first spotted it. (Bonus points for kitting out Kuma in an equally handsome matching style that d put any menswear dog look to shame.)
NBA 2K21 Makes Kevin Durant-Esque Comeback with Season 4, The Return
Kevin Durant’s comeback from his Achilles injury may be the big story of the NBA so far this season, but for us New York Knicks fans it’s all about Taj Gibson. Unsurprisingly, however, NBA 2K21 has opted to make KD the face of its latest MyTeam season, which all starts with a Free Agency card inspired by the Brooklyn Nets small forward.
This season the ultimate Level 40 prize is a Galaxy Opal Kawhi Leonard, meanwhile there’s a new Signature Challenge inspired by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. You can grab him for free using an

With a new calendar year on the horizon, it s finally time for our first in-season projection for the 2021 men s NCAA tournament bracket. And if you ve seen the latest AP rankings, it should come as no surprise that Gonzaga, Baylor, Kansas and Villanova are our four No. 1 seeds.
At this point in a most unusual season, projected seeding is still based primarily on preseason expectations as opposed to actual results from the first five weeks. After all, the first NCAA Evaluation Tool (NET) rankings won t come out until Jan. 4, and KenPom.com data still has a lot of preseason modeling baked into the numbers.

1. Backxwash: God Has Nothing To Do With This Leave Him Out Of It
In most years, there’s at least one musician I don’t have strong feelings about, then I’ll see them live and think “holy shit, this is my new favourite artist.” I didn’t get many chances this year, but Backxwash did it for me virtually. I had heard the Montreal-based artist here and there, but I gave this album some spins as part of my Polaris Prize jury duty and it quickly became all I listened to. It’s experimental hip-hop with the spirit of metal, very heavy and very captivating. I’ve heard rappers sample Black Sabbath before, but Backxwash (who was raised in a religious Christian household in Zambia) brought out the legitimately chil

Here are a few extra notes, quotes, stats, videos and whatever else I could empty out of the old notebook that didn’t fit into print after the Lobos’ 72-61 road win over Rice on Sunday in Houston:
They actually played!
There are 357 Division I men’s college basketball teams.
If you take away the eight in the Ivy League, which decided as a conference not to play this season due to COVID-19, there were just 26 left that had not played a game entering Sunday.
