  1. If it was the majority of posters, i would take it with a grain of salt. Since it's @RoadToZionthat's sharing it, I'm worried. We could likely get by without 3 of those guys for a few games. X would be very, very, very difficult to replace.
  2. Welp, if true. Some people get their wish for changes in the starting lineup. And, those 4 guys need a serious ass kicking.
  3. Daily Commute Musical Update I never liked this song. But, the one or two times a year I hear it, I'm compelled to listen to it for some reason. Acid flashback? I never did acid, so that can't be it. And, as far as I know, my parents didn't either. Whatever the reason, this one falls into a unique category. Songs I Don't Like but Listen to Anyway
  4. Who knows. Maybe the extra competition will light a fire under Evansville and they come out of it as a better program.
  5. Keys to winning, one offensive and one defensive: 1) Score more points than they do. 2) Hold them to fewer points than we score.
  6. True story. Other than The National Anthem, 'The Devil Went Down to Georgia' is the only song I've ever memorized all the lyrics. I think I was 11 or 12 when it came out and I thought it was such a cool song.
  7. I have a feeling USI will have more success than Evansville.
  8. Breaking story related to this conversation. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/33238595/major-league-baseball-stops-testing-players-steroids-nearly-20-years-report-says
  9. My wife and I were talking last night as we were watching. Asked the kids (both teenagers) if they wanted to watch. You would have thought we were asking them to donate a kidney. When I was growing up, watching the Olympics was something we did as a family. Especially, the Winter Games, since it was usually too cold to do anything outdoors. I'll admit, I didn't find time this year to sit down and watch until last night. But, they sucked me in real quick. Stayed up until after 1:00 AM watching. And, the best thing about this year's game, is what you see in Prime Time is live. It's happening tomorrow in China, but it's live on our TV sets. I found a site that was posting live scoring and it was about 20-30 seconds ahead of what I was seeing on TV.
  10. I like to watch random Big East games when time allows. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, can make Patrick Ewing look like a good coach.
  11. Daily Commute Musical Update Back in the early to mid-80's, I had Hank Jr's Greatest Hits on cassette. I played the crap out of that album. I don't listen to Country music much anymore. But, it's always a good memory when I stumble across one of those country songs of my youth. Carload of People Approved.
  12. I always thought Purdue and 'steaming turds' went together. Peanut Butter & Chocolate Strawberries and Cream Burger & Fries Purdue & Steaming Turds
  13. Okay. This women's freestyle big air jumping is pretty cool.
  14. Was watching the skiing. NBC switches to figure skating after Schiffrin falls. Wife says. "Oh, are you watching that (figure skating)." My internal voice says 'just getting ready to change channel'. But, my external voice says 'Yeah.' Wife says "Can you tell me when the U.S. comes on?" So, I'm stuck.
  15. NBC executives probably used a different word. A bunch of households in the country just flipped the channel.
  16. National Championship game every year. He wouldn't have to win all of them. 8 out of 10 would have been acceptable.
  17. Heard it was Rubio and that draft picks are also involved
  18. Well. it appears 'Big Brother' reads HSN.. Look what popped up in my Facebook feed today.
  19. Stevens at kitchen table over the years reviewing job opportunities UCLA - Pass IU - Not going to do it Arizona - Yawn Duke - Nope UNC - Nah UL - Hell Yeah! Honey, pack up the kids. I have my dream job!
  20. ESPN ranked the top 100 players of all time. Here is a link for the top 25 with embedded links to get to the remainder of the list. Brief writeups on each as well, which is nice. They considered everyone, regardless of whether they have been banned from HOF or not. If I counted properly, there are either 5 active players on the list, 6 if you count Pujols as active. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/33158613/top-100-mlb-players-all-nos-25-1
  21. I expected more 'Free Taco' promotions.
  22. Oh, and @SawatchHoosieris not allowed to start game threads anymore. IU loses and game thread privileges should be revoked.
