I wish the announcers would shut up about uconns title chances.

So with all that change do you wear one of these?

Nope. I have one of these. But red with IU on it.  It was my dad's. He hated pennies and always paid cash. So he was the guy that would make change.  It's my obligation to carry on the tradition.  But as a coin collector I grab every wheat penny I find. 

It's been 3 games in non-con. Holy shit. Anyone stop to think maybe Woody is using these games to experiment with lineups?

So you’re going to turn into the old guy that takes forever to find exact change?

Nope. I'm the asshole that carries dollar coins to confuse the cashiers.

On the check out theme of pet peeves. Anybody else noticed that with all of the cash back cards, businesses are charging card usage fees to the point you lose money??? Do they want us to go back to writing checks?

Cash is king. I make small purchases using dollar coins. I'm also a coin collector so I like the heft of money. 

I typically carry about $100 worth of cash and some coins. I carry enough I'm borderline willing to defend myself over.

Same thing for people paying cash. Have your wallet out and ready to go. Had some old lady (older than me) take 2 minutes to find a nickel (not exaggerating) rather than another dollar bill. I finally got a nickel from my pocket and threw it down to the cashier for her, and said "Here take this, I didn't bring a sleeping bag".

I'll occasionally run in to people who still write checks. When I was in high school/college from late 90s to mid 2000s. I had a debit card but a lot places still wanted cash or check.  If I knew I was buying something and was using a check I would fill in everything but the amount and sign before going in. 

Now they have check printers but I've had a few elderly people insist on writing it out. 

Hopefully we can build a team around Sorsby.  I don't want another Penix type situation if he keeps playing like this. 

MSU has their 12th man to thank that they had the last 2 minutes. 

I like our chances in overtime with a field goal here. Gotta hit it first. 

It really annoys me when people complain about prices at the checkout while they fumble for their debit card while saying "they always go up and never down".  It's called inflation clown, have your card out and ready. You know you will need it. 

Could have been a sack without that holdiing missed call.

Not saying we lose by 20+, but if you are looking for evidence with a small sample size:

IU 72 Army 64

Stonehill 57 Army 44

UConn 107 Stonehill 67

Woody focuses on lock down defense.  He has a brand new team this year. 

Losses will happen, but I trust coach will work it all out. 

Hopefully just a sprain. If he was walking in the handshake line I'm not worried.  Ankles have always been my weak point and I've sprained each 5-6 times each. And when it happens they swell up to the size of softballs and turn purple, green and yellow. Been to ER several times. I take EVERYTHING to the next level.

Gosh, I’m 49 and probably my first memories are watching IU basketball, especially the 81 championship. Went to IU 93-97.   Was a huge Knight fan. Unfortunately, we haven’t made a good hire since then, with the possible exception of Woodson. But damn, we haven’t seen good basketball since Cheaney, Grahams, Henderson, Bailey, etc.  It’s just sad. 

Alright then. Look forward to talking IU basketball with you.

Actually, I don’t really care about Purdue. They are still little brother. I'm from southern Indiana. Call me a UK fan and you might hurt my feelings!  Once again, my original post just stated the obvious.  

Didn't answer my question.  What makes you an IU fan? 

I'm not challenging you. Just want to know!

Oh, lighten up Francis. Just stating the obvious.  You can call me Mr. Obvious if you like  

 

Well, if I'm wrong then tell me about it. What is your hoosier history?

Damn. We are bad!  Really bad!!

purdue fan. Obviously. Go away

shooting 3-14 from 3, i'm still not convinced shooting more 3s will help.  

Well, if we shoot 100 we'll hit about 12 which is 36 points.  Just kidding, why has IU had a shooting problem for so long?

Hey brother this game isn’t very interesting, what else is there to talk about 

Go to any good restaurants?

Doesn't using screwdrivers hurt?

I think he's still drunk. Been there done that.

I liked the shot too. Wide open on a BLOB, he just needs to relax a lotta bit. I think he's pressing so much to contribute he's just too amped up. 

Love you're avatar 

We are bricking free throws.

You don't trust me, bro? 😉

I've broken 17 bones. I think that's enough. I'd like to keep the other 198 unbroken, or in your profession survive, 😂

Headed back home after a week on the road. Making this 5 hour flight do faster that’s for sure!

At least you can watch the game.

I've only flown on a 4 seat personal plane. I like my feet on terra firma

My concern is this the third game now…

What is your concern?
