It was sarcasm Scott. The Fire Archie topic seems to find it's way into literally EVERY thread on this board. I for one am over it. I do appreciate all of the Mods efforts to keep discussions on topic. My point was simply sarcastic. If I didn't convey that clearly I apologize.

Which of the threads?? Luke Brown? Women's basketball or the actual Fire Archie thread? 🤣

So you're saying we should fire Archie?

Soooo, anyone think the Rams dangled that package in front of the Texans? If Stafford is worth a former #1, two firsts and a third, what in the world is Watson worth? Is it gonna take three firsts or more?

Back in the day I used to get timeouts in the corner as well. 😁

This quote from Booker's lawyer really bothers me. He doesn’t need to take a polygraph test. Look at the video.

What has been underreported is if this event took place on private property. I have rather strong feelings about trespassers as one burned down the house (unoccupied at the time) on our family farm. I'm curious as to how some of you feel about trespassing, or whether it even matters in this incident.

I really don't want to excuse bad behavior, but there are a couple of things here that do not make sense to me. 1) A group was meeting in the Hoosier National FOREST in the middle of the DAY to watch a LUNAR eclipse? I'm not an astrologist, but none of that makes sense to me. 2) I never heard the "N" word yelled. I did hear one of the people holding a camera try to bait one of the red necks into saying it though. 3) I never heard anyone call for a rope or a noose. 4) If you truly feared for your life, and were given the chance to escape the circumstances, would you turn back on your way out to confront your attackers again? 5) The always relevant "What happened before the cameras started rolling"? I will reserve judgement on this one. Lots of weirdness here. Lots of bad behavior. It brings to mind the phrase "Fat, Drunk, and Stupid is no way to go through life"

Other new (to me) music from Bourbon and Beyond Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats Whiskey Meyers Lucas Nelson (yep, Willie's boy) and the Promise of the Real. Much to my surprise there really is some good new music out there.

Then I found out they covered on of my all time favorite songs with an amazing spin...

Last year, I discovered this band at Bourbon and Beyond in Louisville. Been on heavy rotation on my playlist ever since.

I'm disappointed. I thought this was an IU board made up of IU fans. Yet, no mention of:

Scott, you need to sack up son! Back in my day we didn't even have Covid19 or 15 or even 10. Rub some dirt on it and keep moving. Now, drop and give me 20 you candy ass!! I figured you would respond to that as well as anything else

That seems a little ghoulish......

My grandmother was a nurse at a small rural hospital in Illinois. Breese Il. to be exact. Its where she met Red Schoendienst who would visit his father there. She always told me Red was her favorite baseball player, not because she cared about baseball, but because of how kindly he treated everyone he met.

Has anyone heard or read anywhere about how this virus affects smokers? Is a smoker at greater risk of dying? It seems a logical connection, but I haven't seen a single thing mentioned about it.

I used to Taco Bell as well. Then I discovered real authentic tacos from a food truck, and taco bell has never been the same.

I'd pay good money to see you make a cheeseburger comment to Deron's face...like, real good money...I'd even bring popcorn, and a mop to clean up.

Yeah yeah, but he's still not an alumnus.....

Agreed. I think it should be mandatory for all journalists to put their own home address in their by-line.

I feel for you Parakeet. We moved to Indy in the late 70's and my dad started getting tickets in 77. It was an annual event at our house. At it's peak, we had 20 seats together and people from all over the country at our house for the weekend. Over time it whittled down, and my parents moved to Atlanta, but we kept 10 tickets. In 97 we sold all but two and we tried to go to the race together. You already know how that ended. Later that summer we found out our tickets had finally been upgraded, and in Dec, my dad unexpectedly passed away. I've kept the tickets, but I've never gone back. I've never sat in the upgraded seats. I watch most years, but over 20 years later I still cry when they sing "Back Home Again in Indiana" Good for you for going without your dad. I'm not sure I could.
