Well, let's put it like this... I drive a Nissan (Maxima) to work every morning, and between semis, duallys, and pick-ups, I'm the rare exception. 

But they all drive them like they're Ferrari's...

I'm in Texas... What's a Suburu? 

What do they drive down there?  F150s, Rams, and Silverado's?

God bless you Scott.  And your drivers.   And love the fact that your biggest customer is Subaru. The car of choice in the mile family for over three decades now. After all we live in Colorado, right ?  All wheel drive to get us through any adverse weather condition.

Lots of Subarus around here.  I've always heard they have major head gasket issues at the 100k mark which has always scared me off.  All the Toyotas and Hondas I've had have been bulletproof.

Thanks guys for the replies. Yes I did forget about deflate-gate......

And, at my advancing age, I don't remember when it was that I read about the Colts being super bowl contenders. But I would think it probably was before Luck announced he was through with football.

Did you see this?  He totally nailed Andrew.

At least we all have our 401ks to be thankful for.

The best things coming out of these are Dr. Birx and Dr. Fauci. National treasures, these two. 

Isn't the Surgeon General an IU med grad?  I just noticed that. 

Why are you worried about parking?  I’ve never seen anyone leave the Bird before and still be legal to drive.

Thanks, but was thinking more along the lines of a place to grab dinner beforehand. 
 

How’s the Village Pub? Has really good reviews on Yelp.

The Irish Lion, Uptown Cafe, Trojan Horse, and Malibu Grill are all excellent and nearby.  Also lots of great ethnic places on 4th St if you’re willing to walk a few blocks.

There’s a Taco Bell across the street.  Always worked for me when I was leaving the Bird at 3 am.

Yeah. Karen.  Keep coach cooped up in the house.  Just three miles from where he achieved history. All the while fans are aching for his return after 20 years.  Good choice.

I can understand why she is so protective of him.  She wants him remembered as the General and not some senile old man.  Nancy Reagan was much the same way towards Ronald.  I believe the last known photo of the Gipper was taken almost 4 years before his death which shows how much she restricted access in his final years.

Me thinks he snookered us!

They said on the other site that Karen was really upset that word leaked out that he was coming and that’s why she decided not to take him.

Bobby doesn’t know what year it is or how he got dressed this morning, but he still knows how to stick it to IU fans.  Lol.

It’s not the fans he’s ever had a problem with.

Well, that's.....bizzare.

Not really.  His mind might be 95% gone but he still marches to the beat of his own drum as always.  Love ya RMK.

An oldie. But a goodie.  Thanks for that !  LOL

Seriously.  It is.

Late word to me.  Coach to Assembly Hall, is still a go. 

I don’t think he’ll know for sure until he wakes up tomorrow.  If he feels alright sounds like he’s coming.

Will the cursed be lifted?  Why is it that all the sudden my hope meter for this season just went from a 1/4 to a solid 3/4?

I doubt it.  OSU by 20.  This will be RMK by 1 pm Saturday.

Wonder if Beilein will be looking for a soft landing spot in the college game this year?

If only he was 10 years younger.  Blank you Adam Herbert!!!

I think you misread mine. Post was made. You suggested we would be down 2 before speech was over. I said kids don't care....you say you never said you said that and I misread your post. Are we caught up chronologically? Just saying anything Knight wouldn't resonate with the exception of the few I mentioned.

I mean this with all respect. Coach Knight left Bloomington almost 2 decades ago. You think Devonte and Justin Smith give one rats about him? Doubtful. The only kids I expect I would actually have an appreciation would be TJD, Brunk, and maybe Rob. Otherwise he's an old white dude that has zero impact on their day to day. 

I never said they did and you totally misread my post.

Can't disagree.

although I think this team would benefit from an old fashioned RMK halftime reaming 😂

I’d pay good money to see that especially the look on Devonte and Justin’s faces.  We’d be down at least 2 players before the speech was over.

It is. Rumors coming out several guys on the team are pushing back against his college style hold you accountable coaching — won’t work in NBA. 

That said they’re in full rebuild mode and he’s just started so imo he has some leeway for the first year. He’s going to have to adapt though or he’ll be out 

Maybe Garland will get them to hire Drewfus.  He's slick and a players coach.  Can't coach worth a lick either.  A perfect fit for the NBA.

Kevin Love appears to be on the trading block. Dan Gilbert going out of his way to keep up with being the worst owner in all of pro sports. He's just lucky Lebron was born 35 miles away or that guy would surpass Snyder as the worst owner in sports.

Is it possible that Beilein gets fired?

I believe they have met in Bloomington maybe even on campus. Not 100 percent on that

I'm sure they've met before. I know Bobby said we'd see some good basketball with Archie.  I don't think he would say that if they've never met.

It would be cool if he were to go to the OSU game this weekend. Just like he did for baseball, a while back.  Bet he even could get in for free.  LOL

I would think almost anyone could get in for free.  I'm surprised they don't give those things away.

He has a really slow set and release on his jump shots.  He will need to improve his release.  Looks good though. Like his upside

Agree on the slow shot.  He's got a very high ceiling but also a floor that's probably much lower than a guy like Cross.  I hope he'll be more OG or Dipo than Hanner or Clifton Moore.
