heave

Cronin is loved for building teams that improve with the schedule, fight till the finish, and have been a couple of last-second Gonzaga heaves from seriously competing for a national title.

A heaving red brute froths and seethes behind a podium marked with the Presidential seal before tearing through the Rose Garden and leaving a swath of wreckage through the White House.

Ranked No. 1 in the Southland by The Times, the Wolverines’ lead was only 26-24 at halftime after a half-court heave by St. Francis guard DeLon Grant rattled in at the buzzer.

The director’s love of opera is what makes sense of this huge, heaving epic.

For now, let’s celebrate the end of the most vexing, mean-spirited and household-dividing presidential election in modern times, as it heaves itself across the finish line and crumples in a lousy heap.
