I thought both this week were pretty meh, though I'll give props to The River for creating some genuinely tense moments. I'm watching the River. I really like the overall idea the show is just a bit too slow for me at times. Ill stick with it for a while though.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 15, 2012 -> 07:52 AM) Coach D'Antoni @Coach_D_Antoni Floyd Mayweather thinks Jeremy Lin is overrated, which is funny because Jeremy Lin has managed to be undefeated without ducking anybody. Not the real D'Antoni but funny none the less.

Lin is at the Bradley Center March 9th. I'm passing on going because of conference tournaments in college hoops but I figured some of you might wanna see Lin on the cheap so there ya go.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Feb 15, 2012 -> 09:23 AM) That's a very weird box score. SIU didnt turn the ball over, took 50% more shots (with a 50% FG%), shot well from 3, only had 6 turnovers and lost by 20 It's SIU and Creighton in a nutshell, it shows just how embarrssing our program has become but it also highlights CU's weakness which happens to be perimeter defense. As much as I've raved about Creighton all year(they are a very good team) their defense certainly needs to improve if they want to be a 2nd weekend team. They're quite possibly one of the top 5 offensive teams in the country but if they don't sure up their d(which seems unlikely at this pt) they could have a very disappointing early rd exit.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Feb 14, 2012 -> 11:46 PM) Wow, heck of a box score. I'm tempted to watch that to see how that's possible. 12-14 from 3?! Indiana State shot 12 of 12 from 3 against us on Saturday so our opponenets have gone 24 of 26 on 3 pointers against us in the last two games, I'm pretty sure that's impossible to do. And for a program that just 4 years ago was thought of as one of the best defensive schools in the country, it's quite impressive.

Lin himself said he liked the Super Lintendo nickname best so blame him

QUOTE (chw42 @ Feb 14, 2012 -> 09:42 PM) I hope that sushi thing wasn't taken seriously. I was just making fun of Floyd Mayweather. BANNED for racism

Well Kyyle you can add to those stats...Creighton shot a MVC single game record 78 percent from the field tonight against the Dawgs. Hahahahahahhahaha what a f***in embarrassment.

Ya solid signing, nothing to complain about.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Feb 14, 2012 -> 09:09 AM) I have this feeling HBK isnt done. Not that its a surprise to me I think he is though I wish he wasn't, that was good stuff last night.

What the f*** has gotten into Jeff Withey?

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 13, 2012 -> 04:33 PM) Speaking of perfection, Kate Upton will be on the cover of the SI Swimsuit issue. Kunis and Upton belong on the perfection list as well.

And for the record NSS, last 10 games and conference rpi are two things the committee has supposedly dropped from the selection process. Also, I swear it's just a coincidence that ISU happens to be the team I'm picking on this year. I'm actually rooting for them, their whole body of works just lacks quality.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Feb 13, 2012 -> 12:23 PM) So, do you two think the B12 - whose power numbers put them as the 2nd or 3rd strongest conference this year - is only going to send 3 teams to the Tourney? I just really, really doubt that. My guess is 5, with the obvious three, Iowa State and one of KSU or Texas. 4 would surprise me, and I think 3 is out of the question. What I think is going to happen and what I think deserves to happen are two different things. If ISU finishes by beating just OU and Tech then they're going to have an extremely weak profile, granted I'll have to compare them to everyone else before I can say if they deserve to be in or out. That being said if we're going to compare them to a say 9-9 or 10-8 KSU team then the Cats get the advantage because of their ooc wins against LBSU and a full strength Alabama.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Feb 13, 2012 -> 10:53 AM) I see people talking about ISU's chances at the tourney coming down to their last 3 conf games - have to disagree. They are currently 18-7/8-4, with this remaining schedule: Mon 2/13 @ BAY (#6) Sat 2/18 vs OKLA Wed 2/22 vs TTech Sat 2/25 @ KSU Wed 2/29 @ Mizzou (#4) Sat 3/3 vs BAY (#6) Even if they just win 2 (home against OU and Tech for example), they finish 20-11/10-8, and I have little doubt that gets them in. They'd be top 4 in the conference, over .500 in what is currently looking like the 2nd or 3rd toughest conference, 20 wins, and at least one win against a top 10 team. So barring a collapse, this team is in. Now, if they can pull off a win at KSU or an upset against Baylor, that just helps their seeding. They may also help themselves with a win in the B12 tourney. But they are on the inside right now, and will only fall out if they fail to win 2 of those remaining 6. Big 12 will likely send 5 teams, and possibly even 6 if Texas continues its climb. Their overall profile would be extremely weak if they just beat OU and Tech. That being said I wouldn't put it by the committee to put them in the field just because of their conference record.

Wish we would have matched that. That's nothing.

Kate Beckinsale and Carrie Underwood are perfection.

Blah that would have been a huge W for NW. Their resume actually is pretty decent for a bubble team but they got some work to do.

Me thinks NW caught a break.

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Feb 12, 2012 -> 11:32 AM) A question about running distance for the math majors on here: Can I assume treadmill distance is calculated merely as a function of time and belt speed and doesn't account for stride length? I've always thought 0% incline treadmill running was supposed to be "easier" than on the road, but lately find myself having a harder time doing equivalent distances and times indoors than out. I'm 6'5" and a long strider, so I'm guessing that I'm actually covering a bit more more ground than the machines at my club are telling me, assuming they're even correctly calibrated to begin with. Does that make any sense? Fair question but I've always had a harder time running outside compared to running on the treadmill. How's everyone's work out plan going? I'm pretty happy with my results so far(have cut body fat while adding a good amount of muscle) and hoping to get to my ultimate goal within a month or two.

So Stony Brook can clinch the 1 seed in the America East today, we're getting close kids. Only 28 days 'til Selection Sunday!

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Feb 11, 2012 -> 09:39 PM) Come on Vandy Unibrow is too intimidating.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Feb 11, 2012 -> 05:58 PM) What happened between the McDermotts in the Wichita State - Creighton game that Andy Katz is equating to the most awkward thing ever? Not sure, I turned it off about 10-15 minutes ago.
