  1. Went for our annual college road trip a couple years back. Sprinted to the Grove at 9 PM, ate the burger with the grilled cheese buns, probably my favorite road trip since ND/USC Bush Push game. The stadium was very meh though.
  2. You're in at 10-8 regardless of the BTT. All the bracket goons seem to think otherwise. Although I think at this point of the year they often overstate what teams need to do. i just don't think finishing 4-1 boosts them up enough...the only good win in that scenario would be illinois. that would leave them with five top 100 wins. that's how many iowa state has now (with 3 weeks left), and they're as on the bubble as it gets. But Iowa didn't lose to Old Style's Red Raiders. Or Iowa.
  3. Yeah, if they're talking strictly on the stadium, Ole Miss doesn't belong anywhere on that. Gameday atmosphere was a ton of fun though. On the flipside, Nebraska's atmosphere sucked.
  4. I don't know if it's the most recent, but the Twins had Stewart-Hunter-Jones one year.
  5. You're in at 10-8 regardless of the BTT. They're out at 10-8 with a loss to PSU in the BTT. I think it's pretty unlikely that OSU finishes 9-9
  6. You're in at 10-8 regardless of the BTT.
  7. His name is attached to the Biogenesis scandal. If the investigation uncovers any damning evidence he'll likely be found guilty of PED use. You think they're going to suspend him without a positive test? They didn't even suspend him when they did have one.

  9. @ Michigan State will be tough to win with or without him, but I'm all for giving him the time he needs to fully heal for the tournaments if the ankle is gimpy. Honestly it didn't look too bad. They brought him out to the bench so my guess is he would have given it a go in a close game. Im sure he won't be 100% on Tuesday but hoping he can go. Or maybe it's broken.
  10. I'm not sure if the level of competition was "quite a bit higher than it is now" as a whole. At worst, it's equal, but I don't think it's as much you think. It's really tough to compare as one era was pretty traditional players (as far as positions and roles) and the other is FULL of hybrid players. The one thing I will say is that big men of today's couldn't compete with the big men in MJ's time. It's not even close IMO. What impresses me about the late 80s/early 90s was how much you can get away with defensively. That's what makes MJ so awesome compare to like Kobe and LeBron. Dude was scoring and putting up insane #s while defense could do whatever they want to him every single game (no hand check rule/never had to worry about flagrant or technical on hard foul/etc). Yeah, poor Michael got hacked constantly, and never got a call.
  11. No thanks. Likewise.
  12. Sorry, the wife likes the stand-up of Gabriel Iglesias I'm sorry too
  13. Do people not have access to Excel? What you want a permanent record of that? What if somebody were to find it?
  14. A five seed in the same bracket as KState? Somewhere around #18 in the S Curve?
  15. I'm loving it. The thing of it is if LeBron doesn't win a few more titles he won't be remembered as great as MJ. He's 28, he'll win a few. He won't be remembered as great as MJ until the current media guys die though.
  16. I'm loving it.
  17. I have no idea where Lewin got 6 out of 7 from. We're 5-7 in the Big Ten. Where did they dig him up from anyway?

  19. Josh Lewin hasn't correctly identified a charge call once tonight.
  20. Who the hell is IU going to beat now? I guess there's always the teams that are new to the FBS. Tim Beckman should make it at least 8 games into next season.
  21. I can't recall a coach ever getting tossed against us.
  22. Like you'd ever give up on Brian Wilson.
  23. Reinsdorf tried to do the same thing with Jordan. Rose have a gambling problem too? This would at least make sense why we never hear about Rose's father.
  24. Or maybe Seattle continues to be terrible like they have the majority of his career, and after 2 more years of that he says [expletive] it, I'll take 5/120 from the Yankees over staying in this stinkwagon. Or maybe an elite free agent starting pitcher entering his age 29 season might just command something more than a 5 year commitment?
  25. He must have finished that degree at the speed of 5 Oladipos!
