What I liked about the second article when talking about the state of Indiana it did not mention Purdue but did Butler and ISU

Also there are so many more college games on TV than there NBA games which will lower the overall ratings. Is there numbers for just the primetime games on from power conferences.

I know that but it comes from the largest cities. I don't really care who had higher ratings because all I care about is my preference. I truly have tried to watch NBA games besides the Pacers but just can't get into the NBA game. Even though I know the quality of the college game is not what not use to be but I still will take it over the NBA game. To me basketball is just not about watching the best players or athletes playing the game because to me it is about a lot more than that

Not to be rude but who the hell cares what people in Luthiana watches. I would guess people that lives in larger cities where they have NBA teams are why the ratings are higher

I really never watch an NBA game unless it is the Pacers and I even have trouble watching them. I also think it is an age thing and and maybe a racial thing on who likes the NBA over the college game. I think the younger people going up to 30 years old probably likes the NBA over the college game.

Reds lose to the Cardinals 5-4;with the Reds scoring 3 runs in the 9th and left runners on 2nd and 3rd. Reds only had 1 hit but got 5 walks in the 9th. Reds only got 3 2/3 out of the starting pitcher but did get great relief pitching

I could see them trading back to get more picks. If they stay at 4 I would go with Kyle Pitts from Florida

On average 2 if these 5 QB's drafted in the first round will end up a bust. You just hope you draft the correct QB and not the wrong one

I guess I don't understand service time because I thought Hoerner has ready played on the majors.

Reds lose 14-11 after scoring 3 runs and leaving two on in the 10th. When you score 11 runs and hit 6 HR's and lose there is a major problem. The bullpen is horrible but the starters rarely go past 5-6 innings do we ate using the bullpen to much. The GM did a terrible job in building the pitching staff this off season. They did not bring many quality bullpen guys or starters this off season. You lose two starters in Baurer and Disco and only brought in Hoffman from outside the orginization.

Reds down 14-9 in the bottom of the 10th so this games is pretty much over and we will be swepted. In the 3 games against Arizona the bullpen was horrible and here are the stats from the bullpen. 13 2/3 IP. 20 runs given up. 16 walks. 12 hits. Last two games both went to extra innings and given up 11 runs in the 10th inning combined

My point is if we were winning, shooting well and staying healthy I wouldn't have a problem with these pictures but we haven't.

Lucky for the Refs that Arizona bullpen is not pitching well as well 8-7 in the 8th

Guys I am not saying it isn't important part of the program but the last 4 years we have seen all of these type of pictures. To me I want my guys to be able to play big minutes and that had to do with. more than strength. It seems like it is harder for players today to play more than 30 minutes a game. Back in the 80's when the players were supposedly not as good as athletes those players were able to play 35+ minutes a game. I saw plenty of IU players play the whole game and never saw diminish in their play.

Well if I thought the strength coach was the difference between winning and losing I might care more. For basketball players I want to see basketball development and even conditioning over the weight room.

I am just not interested in seeing it. I would rather see more videos of actual basketball activities on the court.

So why do they show all of these muscular.poses if it is just about strength

Reds bullpen just gave up 4 runs in the 7th on 2 hits and 5 walks. Fulmer and Doolittle was just plain awful. They are down 8-4 going to the bottom of the 7th.

I have watched enough basketball over the 45 + years and saw plenty of great shooters who did not do a lot of weight training. Not saying not to do weight training bit I don't need to see these pictures all the time. With how poor we shot the last 4 years there appears to be a circulation between the two.

It is an opinion so neither one of us are right or wrong. Why do you have to be so arrogant on these boards where you think your opinion is the only right one and if people.disagree we are wrong. Just because you are a wannabe high school coach doesn't make you an expert on everything.

I agree with them because I couldn't care less how muscular a basketball player is.

Reds tied the score 4-4 with a couple of homers by Castellan's and Surez

Not a good start for the Reds bullpen today. Down 2-1 in the 6th Fulmer walk the first batter and then a home run. I don't understand the Reds struggling so much with Arizona. Arizona will he 5-1 against the Reds but 4-9 against the rest of the league.

I thought he already entered the Portal and decided to come back

A question has Kopp officially signed because I am watching Indiana Sports Beat and they have Benny Sanders on there. Bob Kravitz asked Benny about Kopp and he talked about him. If it is not official he is not allowed to talk about a recruit personally.
