ACC 2019-20 predictions: Defending national champs ranked ... 4th?
The Cavaliers' nonconference schedule isn't overwhelming, with the toughest game coming at Purdue in early December -- giving Bennett a month to figure things out. They only get Duke once during the ACC season, and that comes at home. They also only get NC State once during the ACC season, also coming at home

This is Mariner 10. It was the first probe to explore the planet Mercury - which it did WAY back in 1974.
Now you may ask, "Now Charlemagne, what in God's name does THIS have to do with sports?" The answer? Not a Goddamn thing. It's just that this little tidbit of information is still infinitely more useful and worth sharing than whatever the fuck Blackfoot tries doing in this forum.
