QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 7, 2015 -> 01:17 PM) Well, Indiana now has to win at least one more game...and pray for a limited number of conf tourney upsets. Pretty sure they need at least two wins. -

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 6, 2015 -> 03:23 PM) FWIW, this doesn't mean they haven't been talking to the agent. On great terms with front office. Talking about future of team. But no extension talks. Lol ok.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Mar 6, 2015 -> 08:20 PM) Can someone explain why Murray State is ranked? Do people who rank teams even pay any attention at all? This game is awesome. -

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Mar 6, 2015 -> 01:11 PM) Down 3 scholis for 4 straight years is murder. They killed Boheim's career. For once I'll say the ncaa came down hard. They should have given him a show cause at least. I read the report, its horrific. -
QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Mar 6, 2015 -> 12:51 PM) He's not a reporter, he's a talk show host. And people are kidding themselves if they believe Bernstein doesn't have sources. He used to cover the beat. He knows people. He's a giant asshole but people need to separate that at times. He doesnt have s***, his sources abandoned him years ago. He wants to be Jay Marriotti.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 6, 2015 -> 12:08 PM) Bernstein keeps saying that he believes the team has no chance of competing next year Hes the worst reporter in sports so who cares what he has to say. The Bears can sign an FA or draft a WR that would produce the same as Marshall will this year, easily.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Mar 5, 2015 -> 09:42 PM) Moore needs to take most of Hinrich's minutes. This. I've liked the guy since Purdue. He's the real deal.

Well. I picked a good game to attend in a luxury suite. Moore is so much better than Kirk it's not even funny. I wish Rose got the calls Westbrook gets. Wow.

QUOTE (SnB @ Mar 5, 2015 -> 08:06 AM) any specific places in the area that you'd recommend for fitting? Let me check my CDGA cal and see if there are any good upcoming ones real quick. That is usually a good resource. I've been to the PGA store recently to double check my club pro's fitting measurement and they were pretty darn good. I then went right to the internet and picked up basically new Ping i25's for half off.

PSU fans chanted "overrated" at D'Angelo Russell. Might want to do at least a little research there kids. -
QUOTE (SnB @ Mar 4, 2015 -> 10:07 AM) So my goal this year is to consistently break 100. I've taken quite a few lessons this winter that should get me there. Once I break 100, I'm going to treat myself to some new irons/wedges as I'm using my FIL's hand me down's. Any recommendations or just go to a big box store and hit everything and see what feels the best? I would say make it a process. Get fitted, ask them what the measurements were and why. Then search on 2nd swing for those exact ones for more than 50% off what they charge you. I would go to at least 2 places to make sure you try the kinds you want. I personally HATE swinging a club in a little box inside so I've done this at outside fitting days.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Mar 4, 2015 -> 10:04 AM) Yeah that's where I started, but then I found some good deals on ebay, assuming I get them in the range i'm hoping for. Jealous of your trip. My first round won't be until late April at the TPC John Deere course. I'm in NOLA with the wifey in May, I was thinking of taking my clubs to catch a round down there, but I'm not sure I'll have time (or permission). The beauty of Shipsticks, my clubs just "show up" wherever we go.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Mar 4, 2015 -> 11:30 AM) Funny...who knows, you might be right...but she honestly cooks almost every night and bakes all the time on the weekends. Cooking and cleaning are her stress relievers. Mine are sex and gambling. We make a great team Babies go to sleep at 6pm, I cook right after.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 4, 2015 -> 11:19 AM) It's not high end but we got a fridigaire gallery gas range with four burners and a central griddle burner last year (about $900). We've been happy with it so far. Electric stoves are terrible, a propane camp stove would be an upgrade over that. My stove is like that one, as long as its gas I can cook with it. I was more worried about having a nice oven as part of it. When we renovate I'll get serious.
-
The best ones are super pricey and usually need custom installation so I have gone with the higher end models of basic brands like Kenmore Elites and GE. If you want to go all out, you are looking at Wolf and Viking

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Mar 4, 2015 -> 09:40 AM) Put in a bunch of bids for some new fairway woods and wedges on ebay yesterday. Now fully engaged in the golf world for the year. Can't wait for the weather to turn so I can get out and start swinging again. Check out second swing, good prices. I just booked a golf trip to AZ in April, looking forward to dusting the sticks off.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Mar 4, 2015 -> 09:56 AM) I find it incredibly hard to believe that an 11-12 win, 4th place big ten team (Purdue) won't make the tourney. I understand they have some bad losses and no signature win, but they're a solid team. Unfortunately I think it'll come down to Illinois and Purdue for that last spot. So Saturday is huge and I just don't see how Illinois can pull it off. It'd be great if Illinois could finish 2-0 and MSU can beat Indiana so they can grab the 7 seed in the tourney. Get the hell away from Wisconsin's side of the bracket. But I'm not holding my breath. The BTT may also move those slots a bit. Purdue deserves to be in IMO. -

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Mar 4, 2015 -> 09:33 AM) He's got 3+ million a year coming to him, with a 7-12 million dollar buyout (depending on when they do it). There's no chance he simply walks away from that guaranteed money. I thoroughly enjoy Indiana basketball right now. They're some of the worse fans, from an entitlement stand point, and all I heard about the last couple of years is how they're "back," how they'll be cleaning up on the recruiting trail, competing for national titles every few seasons, etc. And now the doom and gloom. He's coaching for his job vs MSU. -

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 3, 2015 -> 05:00 PM) Would anyone be surprised if Wisky didn't get to the Elite Eight? Seems they're better off as the underdog/sleeper, not the giant waiting to be knocked off. And not quite sure Jackson coming back this late is a net positive. They are more versatile than ever but they still have weaknesses and didnt have a good Big Ten to fight through this year. -
QUOTE (Alpha Dog @ Mar 3, 2015 -> 04:21 PM) Smart guns do not work. So far the only variant was a .22 cal which is almost useless. Anything stronger jars the electronics after a few shots to the point of breaking. You need to be wearing a huge, ugly wrist band in order for it to work, with a range of about 6 inches. So if you grab the gun with the wrong hand, 'click', no boom, you could be dead. The NRA doesn't hate them they just resist them being mandated. Give them to police if they are so good. let them be the experiment. Maybe the way they are built today, but the technology exists to make this use case extremely easy, guns manu's just dont want it to work because it decreases the black market.
