I do have direct TV which has ACCN, but I’m not able to get it through Espn+ despite logging in with that info.

My wife and I are here. Rode the shuttle with Earl and Rammer. Haven’t seen any Billikens fans. Crazy low ceilings in the ballroom. Not too many “rainmakers” in there.

Diaper bags are allowed.

Maybe he doesn't want to live down the street from Jim Edmonds anymore...

Following up on the ESPN series, The Last Dance, Frank Cusumano caught-up with Anthony Bonner and chatted with him about facing Jordan: https://www.ksdk.com/video/sports/basketball/anthony-bonner-has-plenty-of-michael-jordan-stories/63-2bd88dc5-f6df-47e4-bee0-9c6c7f8a379b Bonner is really chatty.
