I think when it's all said and done Texas will be in the tourney. They are young and getting better and Barnes can only do so much to keep that talent down. But yes, I think you have it right when you talk about how tough the Big 12 is this year due to losing colorado and nebraska. Because as we've seen, even marginal teams are really tough to beat at home. Anyhoo, my production is kstate rights the ship, and them and texas finish strong and make it.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Feb 7, 2012 -> 06:53 AM) I really hate fouling up 3. I'd rather take my chances with a team chucking a prayer to be honest. Last year's Missouri team has taught me to be very excited with any conference win. This team has 4 of them in 6 tries. The schedule is brutal, but especially so b/c the away games that were real cupcakes were nebraska and colorado. When your easiest road games are oklahoma, texas a&m and osu that tells you somethin. I honestly don't care how much we win by on the road as long as we win.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Feb 6, 2012 -> 05:41 PM) Last year was a little awkward though. You recruit a coach at the Final 4. Kind of hard to recruit the man coaching his team in it. And I think it's a little less awkward for Shaka to leave VCU when he did not just bring them their best season ever by far. those jobs finished hiring post-final four. He had every opportunity.

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Feb 3, 2012 -> 06:32 PM) Actually, they didn't fully reverse course. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/plum-l...tS9mQ_blog.html Call me skeptical til they start awarding Planned Parenthood grants. I think the real story with this organization is about how awful of a charity this really is. 20 cents on the dollar goes to breast cancer research, and another 15 cents goes to cancer screening efforts. If they really cared about finding a cure, you'd think they'd give more to research than they spend on overhead. But instead, the bulk of their money is on public awareness about breast cancer. So that companies can do things like sell a Susan G Komen Breast Cancer awareness handgun. http://seattle.cbslocal.com/2012/02/03/gun...l-pink-handgun/ I'm less familiar with breast cancer charities, but I'll research some better ones and post it here. My favorite charity is charitywater, who will not only take videos once a month of recent wells they've completed, but will also give you a receipt detailing how much money of yours is going to the project, overhead, etc. Great charity! But i'll look into any breast cancer ones that are more transparent.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Feb 3, 2012 -> 05:21 PM) If the recovery keeps up a pace like the past few months, or better, for most of 2012, the election will be a no contest win for Obama. and frankly, if local and state governments could move in the positive (which is going to take a while for the revenues to go up) that would be huge, because I can't remember the last jobs report that had additional public jobs added along with private growth. But this was a fantastic jobs number, especially with it's breadth throughout the industries.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 2, 2012 -> 09:30 PM) No, LeBron could've broken his leg and he'd be crucified if he came into the season all out of shape. Michael and Scottie (Scottie twice) competed in the Olympics after winning a title and didn't use that as an excuse to come into the next season out of shape. I love Dirk. One of the 15 best players the game has ever seen, IMO. But he gets no play here. truth.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Feb 2, 2012 -> 02:26 PM) I said my piece about the pgs earlier so ill leave that one at that. Besides that, I see you're trying to be position dependent but McDermott, Jones and TRob all have to be 1st teamers. And sticking with that theme, if you're going with a pure sg it either has to be John Jenkins(Vandy has underachieved a bit but Jenkins has still been fantastic) or if not him then Marcus Denmon. Denmon has been miserably cold the past 3 weeks. I still love him as a SG but he has some confidence issues right now. But flip pressey is the cure for all your PG ills.

Oklahoma State was a BCS title contender last year after mostly top 25 finishes throughout the decade. If you are a top 25 program you can have a hot run, and having a playmaker like DGB can catapault you. You are acting like mizzou is some team that just fights for bowl births. We've been a top ten team 3 times in the past 5 years during the season.

stromile swift had a dunk that was amazing, trying to find it now.- 2011-2012 NCAA Basketball Thread
That was a really good win for Mizzou. I was really hoping denmon would break out of his slump, but to win in texas with Ratliffe in foul trouble most of the game and denmon ice cold on the road in Texas showed a lot of character. Without ratliffe we have no rebounding, Moore is okay at it, but hes more to stuff the lane.- Official 2011-2012 NFL Thread

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 27, 2012 -> 11:52 PM) Huh? Derrick Rose has made a bigger deal about the loss than any Bulls fan I've seen. More the b****ing about Boozer. Boozer's earned his paycheck this year, maybe not all of it, but I certainly don't regret having made the move for him with the offense he's provided.- 2011-2012 NBA Season Thread
