  1. That's awesome. Always thought that was such a great band name. My frosh year they played on the basketball courts in front of Wilkie for Little 5 week. No idea why I remember that. That week was a blur then. lol Go Hoosiers!!!
  2. Nice(feel free to message me proof) lol. Jake's had dime beer night every Thursday. Oh the headaches you'd get from that Little Kings. lol Always had a good time there though. Listening to Live music and trying to dance. Who remembers the Oliver Syndrom and the Rod and Cones? Go Hoosiers!!!
  3. That's cool. Nothing like Taco Tuesday there. The old one was over on 10th street in a strip mall. The Wooden Nickle record store was right next to it. Another place that got a lot of my $$$ back in the day. Go Hoosiers!!!
  4. There are several bars/clubs and restaurants from back in the day(85-89) that aren't with us now. Jake's, The Peanut Barrel, J. Arthurs, Garcia's Pizza and Taco Johns to name a few. Go Hoosiers!!!
  5. Dagwoods Deli opened my freshman year. Funny Dagwoods story... living in the dorm on the meal plan meant Sunday night on your own. Which living in Wilkie and being broke usually meant breadsticks at the Noble Romans a block away. Anyway... one rainy Sunday night my roomie and I splurges and decided to order subs from this new place in town(Dagwoods). It was far from a good experience(took forever and the guy dropped my roomies sandwich in a puddle getting out of his car). But damn wet bread and all we were sold on the Hoosier Hoagie. Every visit to Btown always includes a Dagwoods stop. Go Hoosiers!!!
  6. Maybe so. I have no problem with them Boycotting the season. Just not sure how it helps. The league and players did a lot to raise awareness since coming back. Despite low ratings those messages were seen by thousands of fans around the country. By ending the season early that stage disappears. Go Hoosiers!!!
  7. https://syndication.bleacherreport.com/amp/2906438-report-lakers-clippers-voted-not-to-finish-season-after-jacob-blake-shooting.amp.html I get their passion and wanting to take a stand but wow this could hurt the league for years to come. Go Hoosiers!!!
  8. His contract is through next season so a move is possible soon. Would love to see him stay healthy and have a big season. Go Hoosiers!!!
  9. AD announcement maybe. 247 has an article today. Headline read Notable developments happening this week in IUs AD search. Go Hoosiers!!!
  10. Omg the "filters" that we all have with language and speaking our thoughts out loud are out the door when dementia hits. My sweet little grandma that I never ever heard swear or say a bad thing about anyone became the opposite. She became just downright mean and cussed like a sailor. We all kinda chuckle now at family gatherings thinking about how many of the in home help she ran off because she thought they were trying to steal my grandpa away. Lol they weren't. I hope he does make it back to AH soon for a game. As the season goes on the likelihood of it happening lessons though. I wonder if just a tour of Cook and AH would be a way to ease him back. Maybe stopping in on a practice. No press but have someone with the athletic dept taking a few pics maybe. As a fan I'd love to see just that. Go Hoosiers!!!
  11. The thing about dementia/alzheimers though is there are good days and bad. Even times of the day when a person's mind may be clearer than others Having dealt with family with this disease in the past and currently you never know what they may say or do. From a distance things may look fine but they aren't. One of the toughest days in my life was the morning my mother didn't recognize me I tear up everytime I think of that morning. Luckily her mind was clearer later that day and she knew who I was and had no recollection of her talk with me. Sadly I know one day soon she probably won't remember me. Watching someone's mind being stolen away is one of the saddest things you'll ever see. Go Hoosiers!!!
  12. Lmao were y'all reading that and hearing Coach Knight and Coach Millers voices saying the words? Go Hoosiers!!!
  13. Coach Knight's condition(dementia if accurate) is such I'm sure it will be somewhat a spur of the moment kinda showing(if it happens). I could see it playing out like this one day. Pat stops by one morning and says, "Hey Dad I'm going to see Indiana play tonite with some of the guys. You wanna come?" Coach says, "Yea son I think I'd like that." Then Pat gets on the phone and let's Archie, Glass and as many former players know. Pat picks him up a few hours later and they sneak in a side entrance at AH. At some point before the game Chuck Crabb announces to the crowd the very special guest and the crowd goes wild. Coach stands up and gives a wave... Not a dry eye in the building. With dementia the ending could change in an instant though. Pat could come by to pick him up only to find Coach in his pjs watching a fishing show on TV. With zero recollection about saying he wanted to go the game. I just hope he comes back before things get worse and while he still remembers all the good times. Go Hoosiers!!!
  14. Yea I know what ya mean. That great mind is slowly slipping away with his disease. We just have to enjoy him while we can and hope he feels the love we still have for him. Go Hoosiers!!!
  15. Maybe you missed it but the video of him talking and saying that is on page one of this thread. It's worth a watch. Go Hoosiers!!!
  16. That's a good sign. Would be a good low profile game for him to sneak into. Go Hoosiers!!!
  17. The Hornets announcers said Cody was out for personal reasons. No idea what it could be but hopefully everything gets better/fixed soon for him. He had such a good start the other night. Go Hoosiers!!!
  18. Cody had a solid game tonite in the Hornets win over the Bulls. 15pts and 12 rebounds. Really hope he stays injury free. Go Hoosiers!!!
  19. Gotcha. I rarely go there. I spend far top much time here as it is. LOL Go Hoosiers!!!
  20. So anybody watch that show The Masked Singer? I'm 100% sure Victor is one of the singers. And according to this article I'm not alone. https://ftw.usatoday.com/2019/09/masked-singer-victor-oladipo-thingamajig None of the judges guessed it was him but any Hoosier fan would have picked up it was him with the hints he gave. I believe the shows were all recorded earlier this Summer so we can't stuff the ballot box for him. Go Hoosiers!!!
  21. I'm pretty sure he was unranked in May. He had a great Summer. Late bloomer for sure. Go Hoosiers!!!
