milehiiu Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 Shared with me on Saturday (April 27). Exciting news. He has a nephew who attends the University of Colorado. Is finishing up his Freshman year. Who is majoring in Journalism. And was just named Sports Editor for the school newspaper. CU Independent I know many of you already know... however, if some may not be aware that BGleas worked for the Boston Celtics. And I believe you will agree with me that he is a great member of Hoosier Sports Nation. Who has a ton to offer. I have said this about other members : "When he speaks.... you better listen". Very true of BGleas, as well. Just wanted to share with you, so you can join with me, in congratulations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zlinedavid Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 Goes to show how online impressions can be wrong. Had BGleas pegged as being younger than having a nephew in the college age range. Regardless, congrats to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figured you were around my age based on what you've said about your work in SM. Nephew the son of an older sibling, I'm guessing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGleas posts are typically timely & well thought out. Suggestive of an intelligent middle aged woman. Being that Mile has referred to BGleas as “he”, that means I was only off on the woman part.

In all my travels from Gary to Bloomington, and back again, as a student at IU....I always made it a point NOT to stop in West Lafayette. I have been in Greeley, Colorado to explore the campus of the University of Northern Colorado..... ONCE. The smell from the cattle yards around Greeley, reminded me of the smell , I smelled, as I passed West Lafayette. LOL By the way... your posts are always either informative or funny. Many times....

Lol And the time I did go through West Lafayette was because of a wreck on I65 combined with construction in Lafayette. GPS routed me the long way around.

mrflynn03 Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 I had the unfortunate displeasure of passing by West Lafayette once a few years ago. I made sure I had provisions, a full tank, checked the oil, empty bladder. And I gave the speedometer a speed test.......and I still smelled the stench.

Appreciate the words about HTD, if it wasn’t for the way you and some other mods speak of him, there is no way I’d have the self control to ignore his nonsense.

You are welcome. Personally, whenever he goes over the top....in terms of PU..... I just ignore. On the other hand, I can appreciate. His old school dislike of that school. I grew up with friends who felt the same way as he. It's not easy, at times, when one attempts to placate all that love IU in their own way. But I try... and will continue to do so.
