  1. Sandra Day O'Connor passed away a few days ago. A documentary about her life is being shown instead, which I'll watch. I've already seen every Finding Roots episode anyway. So no complaints. GO HOOSIERS!!
  2. I just found that Finding Your Roots isn't on tonight. It's been superseded. So my whole night is wrecked.. 😑
  3. When I was a kid my Mom had a large vase of 5-6' foot tall peacock feathers in the corner of the living room. It was huge. Apparently that used to be a 'thing' back in the 50's. Very Victorian in a British type of way. I always thought it was weird. Death to Peacocks.
  4. Thank goodness the game is on Peacock, that means I can instead watch "Finding Your Roots" and go to bed early. I'll check the score in the morning newspaper.
  5. As long as Sparks can beat the living crap out of opposing players down low to help Ware play his game away from the basket, I'm cool with the bad free throws. I just hope a game never depends on him making one. 😀
  6. It's gonna be a fun year... and I always look forward to your stats. 🙂
  7. Anytime IU beats Maryland in basketball is a really good day. It just smells so good...
  8. It sounds weird, but the first person I thought about after hearing the news of Knight's passing was Gene Keady. I bet this has hit him pretty hard. Those two were the undisputed Big Ten titans back in the day. Those IU-Purdue games in the 80's were nothing short of epic.
  9. Rest In Peace Coach Knight. Best Coach Ever. Hands Down.
  10. We are way better than 8th in the B1G. I understand that we are an unknown, but Woody knows how to put a team together and coach them up. Sans injuries (fingers crossed) this may be a really good team.
  11. IU will go into the postseason with 8 losses, and will be a force.
  12. IU loses 20 games, per the Mad hatter, but beats PU twice and an undefeated UK team in the finals, ending Cal's career. Blah blah blah Bart Torvik.
  13. IU loses 16 games but beats PU twice and an undefeated UK team in the finals, ending Cal's career. I just woke from that dream.
  14. Three beers and some wall art. I'd take that in a heartbeat!! 😀
  15. Thanks for the memories Rob. You will always be a Hoosier. I wish nothing but the best for you at Cincinnati!!
  16. Recently, the last couple decades anyway, after a season of watching IU play basketball, I enjoy cutting grass.
  17. I'm sorry, but IU is nowhere near as large and talented as the teams I just saw play in the Final Four. Not even close.
  18. Good for Matta and good for Butler. If his health has improved he is still a young guy and has plenty of years to coach.
  19. Every college basketball fan needs to Google Evansville Basketball. When that plane went down the music died.
  20. This is something I rarely talk about but I woke up the morning after the game on a sidewalk in downtown Bloomington. I had to walk a couple miles just to find my car. It was a crazy night. Go Hoosiers.
