  1. at least half your team isn't injured :banghead:
  2. Mostly skipped a generation unfortunately for me. But I have a brother that played on Cincinnati Bearcats final four team with Van Exel and Corie Blount. His son is a freshman on a basketball scholarship at Urbana U, but will be a D1 transfer. Have 3 other college aged nephews playing football. One D1 for ULM. One for FCS SIU, but he will be drafted next year. Another playing D3, but he was on scholarship at Oklahoma until he blew that with grades. Had 2 uncles and a much older cousin be all state basketball players in Indiana, one of which went pro in Greece. I also have a niece that's a contender for all state in HS basketball. And a 6' tall 13-year old nephew who's dad is in the NFL. And my soon to be 5-year old son is ridiculously good at basketball for his age (can maintain a dribble and make baskets on a full size rim with a girl's ball or from about 10-12 feet with a kids size ball). Sorry for the not so humble bragging. If it makes people feel any better, I sucked in high school at baseball and was just a mediocre football player. I did make IU's team as a walk-on but quit while like 6th on the depth chart at OLB. Lol Whereas I have the least atetic family ever (though extraordinarily accomplished academically)
  3. So what's the best case scenario tonight for NOT having two SEC teams in the playoff? Auburn beats Ole Miss, then Alabama beats Auburn and Ole Miss beats MSST?
  4. Penn State will never win again
  5. This team is a dumpster fire
  6. Did Kaplan hate Ozzie when he managed the Sox?
  7. I think that's Beth Mowins. Same diff
  8. You know your season is in the toilet when Pam Ward is calling your game
  9. That's the worst continuation call in history
  10. try again His losing at home to the Knicks (in his triumphant return to Cleveland), while shooting 5/15, bring out my inner meatball. I make no apologies
  11. Terrible
  12. FSU are getting their asses kicked so far
  13. Renteria will be hired onto Ryne Sandberg's staff in Philly and the meatballs will meatball it up
  14. You round first hard regardless of whether that is a single or not. I haven't seen a replay focused on Gordon the whole way around, I'm just spitballing
  15. I demand a champion
  16. What most likely slowed him down initially was that the ball was clearly a single and he wasn't likely hauling ass like he would've been had it been a clear gap double. He hits it, sees it will be a close play (but a single if not caught) so he doesn't round first hard. Then he sees the bobble and starts motoring towards second, and is further slowed by watching the play instead of just running
  17. http://www.reactiongifs.com/r/phone.gif
  18. Sandusky case solved. http://freethoughtblogs.com/dispatches/2014/10/29/hice-sandusky-raped-kids-because-of-separation-of-church-and-state/
  19. Except the English Premier League, La Liga, the Bundesliga, Serie A, Etc. . . . Sure, but there is the World Cup, the Europe(an?) Cup, etc., etc. etc.
  20. Because every single other sport on earth has a tournament to crown its champion. And maybe, just maybe, if teams can regularly get into the field of 8 with one loss, they'll be more likely to schedule real OOC games instead of Coastal Carolina and Chatanooga
  21. The bowl system in and of itself is fine, but it's wholly inadequate as a postseason system. Ryne Ween would like the NCAA basketball tournament replaced with the ACC vs Bug Ten Challenge
  22. The only thing I dislike about this new system (so far) is the decision to have weekly rankings. Imagine if the basketball committee released a top 25 every week starting in mid-January. I somehow thought this football committee wouldn't be heard from until the actual selections. Should've known ESPN wouldn't abide that
  23. Wow. Is that really true? Are you really that shocked? Rose has played ten games in the past 30 months or something. Not really shocked. It just seems like Butler has been around and a major part of this team longer than that. I was thrown back last night when the announcers for the Magic/Pelicans game said Eric Gordon was in his 7th year. Which obviously was 3 bad years for IU and 2 good years and then last year, but still to think of it as 7 years was weird to me. Hopefully it's his last year. Hopefully Rondo gets hit by a bus
