QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 7, 2016 -> 03:10 PM) This surprises me, I thought the game vs Indiana had standing room, there were a few Creighton games that were crazy sold out too I believe it refers to first time every since the renovation.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 6, 2016 -> 10:30 PM) They did. Speaking of super easy schedules, going to Carbondale on Saturday for the first time in 3 years to watch SIU-Wichita in the battle of 3-0 Valley teams. I'm pumped. Rumor has it they got approval from the administration to sell standing room tickets for the first time ever. After going to every home game during the 2008-2012 massacre it's really fun watching this team. Really fighting the urge to drive 5 hours for this one.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 23, 2015 -> 12:11 AM) Please tell me Kentucky flipped the switch. This team is so talented. The first half was frustrating as hell to watch. It was nice to see them pull away despite shooting under 20% from 3. That was ugly. Lyle finally showing up to play has been a nice boost and it looks like Mitchell can be a nice spark plug as well.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Dec 18, 2015 -> 08:09 AM) I thought we were getting the Solo twins, for all intents and purposes we got Jacen Solo. But Leia would have said something at that point, so I'm going with Luke's daughter. First of all I really loved the movie, I had high expectations and this blew it out of the water. I cannot wait for the next one with the stories they've set up. The only reason I leaned towards Kylo Ren and Rey being related or having any connection is because of when Kylo Ren chokes General Hux for mentioning the droid with a girl. But that could also connect back to the flashback scene when she grabs the lightsaber.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Sep 19, 2014 -> 09:28 AM) I've heard lots of good things about Punta Cana Absolutely loved my experience I'm Punta Cana. I'd be going back there next week but I couldn't find a direct flight Sunday to Saturday so were going to cancun instead. Customs are super quick and easy in Punta Cana

Yeah don't waste your money on the Bahamas. My girlfriend and I went to Punta Cana back in March to a dreams resort for just over $3000 with nonstop flights out of midway. We're going to a secrets resort in riviera maya next week for $3600. Can't wait. Secrets, dreams, now, and breathless resorts are all owned by the same company and they're pretty uniform so we love them. Can't recommend them enough!

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 28, 2014 -> 01:08 PM) I'm really high on Lamar Miller in that new offense. I have huge reservations about Austin performing on that team, but I may be way off. He may be the deep threat Hill connects with. That's why I drafted Miller so this one is tough for me. It is a PPR league

Buddy offered me Tavon Austin and Fred Jackson for Lamar Miller, thoughts?

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 27, 2014 -> 04:23 PM) Ha same actually. Do you remember what Apt number you were? I think we were Q8. Pretty crazy too cause we were there the first year Aspen was built and the back yard there was just a yard. I lived in P5 from August 2010 - August 2012. I was in J3 across the complex in 09 too.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 27, 2014 -> 03:18 PM) http://universityprimetime.com/southern-il...age-shows-epic/ And nobody invited me. My old townhouse is right there in the first picture. Good times, miss that place.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 31, 2014 -> 03:56 PM) Dustin Johnson taking a leave from professional golf to overcome "personal challenges" Wow. Good luck to him, hope he figures it out. Fun to watch him drive the ball, absolutely bombs 'em

Willy Adames SS prospect going to TB as well. Per Rosenthal

Had some fried oysters and gumbo from Heaven on Seven here in Naperville last night. Really really good and just as good as what you find near the gulf. Going to Gulf Shores, Alabama next week to eat a ton more seafood. Love it

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 25, 2014 -> 11:15 AM) Yup, Costa and Courtois are both gone. Felipe Luis to Chelsea as well. The blues are absolutely stacked. Excited to see what the plan is with Cech and Courtois

Tennessee state twice...woof

I thoroughly enjoy Nathan for You. So funny. Probably the best original show Comedy Central has put out in a long time.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 17, 2014 -> 05:02 PM) Any word on Jozy? Supposed to be reevaluated tonight. Besler apparently good to go for Sunday

QUOTE (dasox24 @ May 14, 2014 -> 07:56 PM) Heading to Gulf Shores tomorrow for Hangout Music Fest. Can't wait. First beach trip of the year, and doing it while listening to some great live music all day. Really bummed that I just saw this. Family has a house on the beach there so I've spent a lot of time there. Could have recommended a lot of great seafood places for you guys. Hope you had an awesome time, I love it down there. Gotta try and make it down there once before the year is over!

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ May 30, 2014 -> 07:34 AM) I really don't think it's that much of a homer pick. Germany is obviously the class of the group but it's really wide open after that. Outside of Ronaldo, who scares you on Portugal? Nani? Almeida? A draw with them is entirely possible, and it's not like their backline and goaltender are that strong. And with Pepe and Coentrao they could grab a red at any time. The Ghana game is the big one and it could go either way IMO. Getting Germany last is also a blessing. If they win over Portugal and Ghana and don't need a result in the last round we'll probably see a few of their players sitting. Neuer, Lahm, Khedira and Schweinstager are also battling injuries. It's a tall task to emerge from the group, but I can't see Ghana or Portugal relishing their chances to advance much more than we do, honestly. Ghana's a very dangerous team. Recent history suggests Ghana will be our downfall again. I'm hopeful for this U.S. team but this group is just brutal.

Julian Green better be as good as advertised in the future for the USMNT if he's gonna take Landon's roster spot. Really bummed about this decision. Side note, really happy for Kyle Beckerman and Chris Wondolowski

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 24, 2014 -> 01:46 PM) Retweeted by Freep Sports Jeff Goodman ‏@GoodmanESPN 37m Ohio State's LaQuinton Ross will declare for NBA Draft, sources told ESPN. LaQuinton just tweeted that he hasn't made a decision yet. Really hope he decides to stay, could use another year.

Haven't felt like that watching a Saluki game in a while. Take down the trees!

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Mar 6, 2014 -> 11:12 PM) So I knocked out Denver and Phoenix, and I'm headed to Savannah next week. Potential trips the rest of the year: Toronto Orlando Nashville New Orleans Seattle Los Vegas Yosemite Never been to any of the above as an adult. Thoughts? Nashville and New Orleans are probably my two favorite cities in the country. Nashville has such a small town feel to it and I honestly think you'll love it even if you dislike country music. The people are super nice, the bars are awesome. Food is great. You'll most likely run into a ton of people from Chicago. Highly recommend traveling there, we spent most of our time there on Broadway strip where bars line the streets. New Orleans is such a beautiful city, if you stay in the right areas. But that can be said about any city. The seafood is unbelievable, but most restaurants are pretty pricey. Bourbon street is pretty much everything you'd expect. Just a nonstop party with tons of places to stop in and drink or just keep walkin down the street. Make sure you go to Brennan's for brunch if you can, great food. In both cases, go with a bunch of your buddies and you'll have a blast. Soooo I'm going to Punta Cana this Sunday for a week with the girlfriend. Staying at Dreams Punta Cana. Anyone ever been to Punta Cana and have any recommendations or advice?

I'm so jealous of you. Was going to spend all day Friday watching since it's my off day but now I have to cover a shift from 9-6. Should be home in time for the Saluki game but pretty depressed I can't watch all 4 games now. Go Dawgs!

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 26, 2014 -> 11:59 AM) There a few decent 2nd round QB's out there. Mettenberger and Murray should both be there when they select next. Carr may even drop that far. It wouldnt be a bad idea. Rumor has it the Browns are extremely high on Derek Carr. I don't think he slips out of the 1st round. Also I'd love it if the Bears used a middle round pick on Aaron Murray.
