    guy has a .676 W/L record at Purdue…of course his tournament record isn’t much better than .500  but most schools without a NC would kill for that. I’m not sure how many weeks at #1 he has had Purdue but definitely positioned them a perineal top 20 team. Not sure who would turn down that type of coach.

    Perineal is the perfect descriptor for West Lafayette, somewhere between a sack and a butthole.

    He's training them for a career in the UFC not in basketball.  Look at the thighs on Jordan.  Like a 1980s Jean-Claude Van Damme.

    Looks more like lighting, instagrammy filters, and flexing than actual ooooh transformation.  His doesn't even have kneecaps in the left pic.

    Not sure but from the picture in the article of him in court...he looks closer to 500lbs then 400...jmo. I don't think he is ever playing again. Not sure what took him to that place but a wasted op for sure.

    Worked with a guy 6'9 and somewhere around this weight.  His F250 leaned when he drove.  Fist bigger than my outstretched hand.

    Maybe but Gov Holcomb will be addressing the May 1st deadline that day. With Cass county exploding, if they do open up after Friday, it will probably be a county by county decision.

    As everyone is going back to work, remember that the federal or local governments will not protect your safety with regards to the virus.

    Your employer has no obligation to keep you safe.

    Your safety due to Coronavirus at work is your responsibility alone.

    First, I hope everyone that has been personally affected by all of this is doing well, whether it be health, mentally, financially, etc. @IU Scott, I hope you are well my friend!

    I posted this in another thread last week, but figured I'd expand on it over here. Me and my family got hit pretty hard last week when my company's board decided to cut salaries by 50%. Not a call I was hoping to get. I'll just give the full story, I run marketing for a small startup supplement company where we offer clinically effective supplements, plant-based protein shakes, etc, and we also give back where for every order on our website, we donate a bottle of our children's multivitamin to a malnourished child around the world. To-date, we've donated over 600,000 vitamins to malnourished children. Sorry, did not intend for that to be a sales pitch, just wanted to fill everyone in on what we do (though I guess that is a sales pitch).  

    While we've been growing steadily every year, we're a lean and mean team, mostly utilizing freelancers and consultants. Full time we're a two person company, so legitimately a startup, though we are 7 years old. Seems odd to have a BOD for a two person company, but that's a whole other story. 

    Anyways, we're eCommerce which is actually good during this time, but being small and in a saturated industry we don't have the ad budgets of our competitors, so we've built the business largely through partnerships with doctors, personal trainers and boutique gyms, athletes and influencers, which has been great. The problem came in when during this time doctors are not seeing patients and gyms/personal trainers are not seeing clients. We've seen revenue fall by over 30%. 

    Not looking for sympathy, as I know a lot of people have it much worse during this time, and I'm grateful the 50% slash wasn't a 100% slash. Time to roll up the sleeves even more and get the revenue rolling again. I'm confident we can do it, but definitely a scary time. 

    Maybe we can create a little mini HSN job board during these times? If anyone has a business that's in need of marketing strategy/support, I'm open to consult/free lance as I look to supplement (pun intended) my income. 

    Not sure what state you are in, but apply for partial or underemployment.  Your state may deny but that should enroll you in any available benefits from the Federal Cares Act or the ones that follow.
