  1. True, and @milehiiu will vote for whichever team had the fewest early entries into the NBA.
  2. 312 is fantastic, agree 100%. Stll slightly favor schafly tho. Jameson is my go to for Irish Whiskey. I have just not found one better (well, not under $100 anyways). However, Proper 12 is a solid alternative if Jameson is not an option.
  3. Tito's with a splash of orange juice is solid for me. I also enjoy a good Irish Whiskey. Beer? I love to experiment with random craft beers. My staple is still most anything by 3Floyd's. Although I do enjoy gumballhead, as far as wheat brews go, Schafly's hef is really hard to beat.
  4. I tried to remove the political posts. Not taking sides. I want to be fair. But let's move past that, please.
  5. As expected, HSN members have discussed a difficult topic with passion and respect. Thank you all. Let's keep it that way. Even bringing politics to the fringe of this conversation will be toxic, and not accepted. We all realize the connection, we all have opinions on it. As difficult as it may be, that part of the conversation can not be part of our discussion.
  6. I just went old school and started Lillyhammer on Netflix. Ate up good part of the weekend. Easy, entertaining watch. Did season 1 of designated survivor last month. Underappreciated show, really enjoying that as well.
  7. Can you honestly read this board and say nobody is laying any of the blame at coach's feet?
  8. Sounds like a couple guys named Victor and OG. Not to put those expectations. But they are the bar setters.
  9. By the way, that trip down memory lane made me want to share this amazing story. The best friend I mentioned? His son was born with a heart defect. Nearly died several times and had many operations as an infant. During that time, I came into tickets to the IU and Duke game at Rupp. I was able to convince my friend to step away from the hospital and join me. And wow, we got the Moye/Boozer classic with court side seats. Anyways, recently his son finally had a heart transplant. He is a walking miracle. In this video, my friend is the guy in the bright orange shirt! https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.wlky.com/amp/article/heart-transplant-allows-kentucky-teen-to-live-normal-life/27471481
  10. Moved to Kentucky from Chicago when I was 12. About an hour south of Evansville. Struggled adjusting and making friends. My first real friend (still my best friend today 35 years later) and his family were from Evansville and die hard IU fans. Through them, I came to love the game. We would always watch IU on channel 44 out of Evansville. Laskowski on the call, I beleive. It just took off from there. I became obsessed with basketball, and grew passionate about the team that initiated that obsession. Basically good old IU fans taught me early, before the UK fans could brainwash me. Lol Still a Chicago guy for my pro teams. Cubs, bears, bulls, hawks.
  11. Ja Morant will be a better NBA player than Zion. I am biased since he played at my Alma Mater, but the kid is legit.
  12. I love that is shows some nice, super athletic dunks/putbacks etc. But I also love it shows several midrange shots and plenty of finishing through contact. Show he is not likely to be Hanner Perea 2.0.
  13. So, this is my Layla, yesterday. I have always had boy dogs. But this girl has totally stole my heart. This was after me throwing that ball of the deck 2,427 times. She was pouting here because my arm gave out. She never runs out of energy. So full of life.
  14. I have to think mile is cheering you.on after reading this post. Haha And I disagree. IU was not a business decision. Keion Brools to UK was a business decision. Romeo stayed in state to play for a struggling program with an unproven coach. Sounds like a risky business move, if anyrhing. And coming back repeatedly, wearing candy stripes on draft day, and recruiting Geronimo all speaks to loyalty much more than business. I just will never understand any negativity towards Romeo. I just can not grasp it at all.
  15. Try to watch this and not smile! My dad was a custodian. Raised my, my brother my sister and a cousin, and somehow got me.through college. This one hits home. But regardless, it is just so stinking awesome. Need to watch both short vids for the full effect. 😁 https://www.sunnyskyz.com/good-news/3047/Custodian-Is-Sent-To-Clean-Up-An-039-Accident-039-Walks-Into-A-Surprise-Party-Thrown-By-The-Students
