THE JON ROTHSTEIN ALMANAC: 2016-2017
Jon Rothstein is my favorite person.No one cares as much about anything as Jon Rothstein cares about college basketball. He has watched more basketball this week than I have watched in my life. He knows more about the NEC than anyone with a national byline should ever know, and it's very cool. Some of his takes are bad (THE GRADUATE TRANSFER APOCALYPSE) but some of them are, actually, very good. I respect the hell out of him.Also, he's bad at Twitter.For the uninitiated, Jon Rothstein will tweet the same metaphor about a team/coach/program/player roughly a billion times. I've gone over in my head why exactly this is true. I hope that at this point he is self parodying. More likely, he's just so sold on these metaphors being good that he thinks that tweeting them for the 800th time is actually good. I can relate because my online brand consists of roughly two jokes just repurposed for different scenarios and it's fun.Rodger Sherman wrote about ROTHSTEINISMS™ last year, focusing on basically 5 tropes: "So much ___ in ___," "Death, taxes, ___," "This is March," "Where the unexpected becomes the ordinary," and a Shakespeare quote.These are but the tip of the iceberg.Odds are, if Jon Rothstein has tweeted something, he's tweeted it many times before. Consider this piece to be edition one of the almanac of Rothstein. 2016 saw the birth of many wonderful Rothsteinisms and the reemergence of many more. I won't be including every instance of every ROTHSTEINISM™ because the internet does not have the storage space to hold that much data.Lord help us all.
"Stay hungry, stay humble."
Jon Rothstein begins every day Online by tweeting this quote. It is the OG ROTHSTEINISM™ and should be respected as such.
"Stay hungry, stay humble"
— Jon Rothstein (@JonRothstein) January 11, 2012
This is the first time Rothstein ever tweeted the now famous phrase. However, it wouldn't become a daily phrase until June of that year.
"Stay hungry, Stay humble"

For the better part of 4 years now, Jon Rothstein has tweeted out the same quote virtually every day. The dedication is remarkable.FIRST USED: January, 2012TIMES USED: Incalculable, at least 1,000STATUS: Active
"The door is open for Elijah"
I do not know who Elijah is. I found this trope by accident. It's true that Rothstein uses the phrase "the door is open" really frequently but so does everyone else. For some reason though, in the 2012 NCAA Tournament, the door was specifically open for "Elijah." Apparently, this is a reference to Kansas point guard Elijah Johnson while combining it with a Cup of Elijah reference. A deep cut, and a good one.
The door is open for ELIJAH!

"Everything comes to he who hustles while he waits"
After his daily "stay hungry, stay humble," Rothstein tweets an inspirational quote. One of his favorites, is this one from Thomas Edison.

"This is only _____"
This is one that has only made the lexicon once the more familiar "This is March" was popularized and spread across the internet. College basketball is a wild sport, not just in March, and thus, Jon Rothstein has changed his go-to phrase to fit with the times.
This is ONLY November.

"College basketball NEVER disappoints"
It might be a hair early to call this a ROTHSTEINISM™, but I'm willing to pull the trigger on it. Two uses, including the all caps "NEVER," within the last few weeks including a high engagement tweet makes me think we're going to see this a lot more. It's in beta testing for now.
UConn looked dead in the water early in the second half, but then the magic of MSG took over. College basketball; it NEVER disappoints.

"Palpable Buzz"
There's a case to be made for including "Palpable buzz" on the Rothstein Mt. Rushmore, right next to "This is March" and "Death, Taxes." It's been used for five years with alarming frequency. This is also one of the phrases that is probably being self-parodied at this point.
Indiana and @TomCrean 8-0 after win over Stetson. Buzz already palpable for next Saturday's showdown with @UKCoachCalipari and Kentucky.
