It was my eight year old son's turn to choose...

What eight year old chooses Subway over Pizza?

[creekster]

He also has BYU losing to SDSU in the final game.

As annoying as that would be, I would take it

Kawhi tweeting about Jimmer the night before his game against Kemba:

#Jimmer plus or minus 2 assists tomorrow?... for all the #BYU fans??

Or is this a poser account?

I saw that dude's hands up close at the MWC. He was carrying some of the Jay Z Skullcandy headphones, the things looked like 2 Mentos connected by a string, in his paws. No way he could type a message on a regular keyboard, let alone a phone, without it looking like cr33kster on meth.

Even the Atlantic Monthly has an article on Jimmer. Jimmer for the elite reading audience.

I wrote this in honor of Jimmer (I'm sure Janice Kapp Perry doesn't mind). If BYU makes it to the final four, I promise I will record a video of cute kids singing it.

I'm Trying To Be Like Jimmer
Verse

I’m trying to be like Jimmer
I’m following in his ways
I’ll try to shoot hoops like he did
Whenever I go to play

At times I am tempted to think I will fail
But I try to remember that he played in a jail

Chorus
So I’ll practice my layups with both right and left
Crossover 3-ball that’s nothing but net
I’ll drive to the basket and make crazy shots
For these are the things Jimmer taught

Verse
I’m trying to be like Jimmer
I’m starting to learn to pass
I’ll try to make all my free throws
I’ll dribble behind my back

At times I’ll be tempted to stop playing ball
But I'll try to remember TJ’s note on his wall

Chorus
So I’ll practice my layups with both right and left
Crossover 3-ball that’s nothing but net
I’ll drive to the basket and make crazy shots
For these are the things Jimmer taught

Jenner, why don't you stick around here more often. Quit slumming on CB, your talent with verse and rockin' montage videos are a much better fit for CUF. To paraphrase the immortal Lou Reed, and the very forgettable Marky Mark, it is time to take a walk on the wild side.

Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streets...

[creekster]

Very amusing. Good mojo for the game!

Genius, Jennerstein. Pure genius.

I would like to enter my 3 cute little kids for auditions for the Jimmernacle Choir for that song.

Dan Patrick spent the whole morning talking about Jimmer on SI. I was watching it on the 101. Him and all the guys in the studio took turns taking jumpers and measuring htem compared to Jimmer. They even had the SI photographer on to make sure it was not photoshopped.

The last 30 minutes Dan spent making fun of Stephen Rogers because he was calling for the ball.

This link was all over Twitter yesterday with the comment "How does Jimmer Fredette know he's arrived? They are stitching his retro HS jersey in Singapore!"

Get your Glens Falls Indians Fredette jersey here.

[RC Vikings]

Does having Jimmer on the cover of SI two weeks in a row undo the jinx?

[Art Vandelay]

Interesting comparing Jimmer to FL's coach. For those old enough to remember that Providence team, Donovan had an incredible run to the final four. That was back when Pitino still seemed about coaching, instead of impregnating ugly groupies in restaurants.
