On ESPN News now.

Getting a dangerous web page warning on that link.

We could have started on ESPN News, but......

ESPN is doing post game interviews at Duke so they can't move the UK game off ESPN News yet. That's total BS.

If I can't watch it, the game isn't happening.

IU game has started

Will Tyra Buss be in attendance, and, if so, who will she be rooting for?

Yes. At first base.

3 is usually my minimum before I care. After a visit to Taco Bell, that number may increase.

Why the hell does Woodson not start Cheaney?

So, you think it will be a 4ot game.

That's certainly a possibility. It's harder to get there than it is to win it. That said, I don't think Bengals fans will have to suffer through a series of 4-12 seasons either.

They do have the '1' schedule for next season since they won the division. Meanwhile, the Ravens have the '4' schedule for finishing last. Personally, I would rank Baltimore as the early AFC North favorite next season.

As a Bengals fan, this a loss I can accept. Some good guys on the Rams that are easy to root for, and this whole season has been a bonus. Watching Burrow walking off the field, I got the feeling he's incredibly determined to lead them back there again. Upgrade the O-line and good things should happen.

I'm over 50 and I enjoyed it.

Colts going to sign A. Rodgers to start, trade for R. Wilson to back Rodgers up, and then get D. Watson for 3rd string.

I have those same doubts, but if it's a 16-13 type game and the 16 Bengal points are a Mixon run and 3 field goals, I think you would have to look at the D to see who caused turnovers. If there is a lot if scoring and Cincy wins, I agree it's Burrow regardless of what anyone else does.

The loss to Northwestern, fueled by the suspensions will send us to NIT. Fortunately I am in car travelling and missed today. Didn't even turn on Fisch.

Daily Commute Musical Update Motown, when done right, produced some of the best music ever made. Here's a good one that I heard while out and about today. It's Carload of People Approved.

The South Bend Washington Boys have nothing on the SB Washington girls. The coach has three girls (SR, JR, & FR). All 3 have committed to Maryland.

Unfortunately, we are not the only team with something to prove today. Combine the fact that MSU has been a better program when it comes to 'proving' things over the last few years with the fact that they are at home means we may not have hit bottom yet.

Lazy vending machine attendants. It's one thing when your candy bar or bag of chips gets hung up. But, at least you have a visual and can determine whether or not you want to try it again and get the daily double. You're guaranteed to get one at that point, and may even get both. But, it's quite another when your money goes into a soft drink machine and you don't get what you selected. You can't try again because you can't see what's coming next I don't drink anything with sugar in it. So, I stock my desk at work with six pack bottles of Mountain Dew Zero Sugar. Just so happens the other day, on the elevator up to the lunch room to eat, I realized I left my drink at my desk. I thought, no biggie, I'll just get a Diet Dew out of the vending machine. I proceed to enter my money into the machine, push the button for Diet Dew, and I get a Dr. Pepper. Not a Diet Dr. Pepper, mind you. But, a regular Dr. Pepper. I'm thinking to myself. Okay vending machine guy. Could you leave that last spot in the row empty if you run short? Or, at the least, fill the last spot in a diet drink row with another diet drink? I may not have been happy, but at least I would have drunk a Diet Pepsi, a Diet 7-Up, or a bottled water (I would not have drunk a Diet Dr. Pepper). In the end, I had to trudge back down to my desk to get my Mountain Dew Zero so I would have something to drink with my lunch. Pet Peeve
