IlliniKrush

At the absolute bottom line...the s***ty turf caused the most important player on the team the rest of (at least) the regular season. Expect the turf problem to get a ton of ink now, and finally possibly change. THIS is perhaps what it was going to take. Ridiculous.

Snowman +1 isn't good?

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Nov 19, 2011 -> 01:43 AM) So give the team that got their asses kicked the rematch over the team that outplayed LSU and lost in overtime. Got it. Neither Oregon nor Alabama should be in there. But someone who lost at home in the meat of the season doesn't deserve it at all.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Nov 18, 2011 -> 11:50 PM) Oregon already got destroyed by LSU on a neutral field. I'd much rather see LSU/Alabama again than LSU/Oregon again and both Oregon and Bama are much more deserving than Oklahoma St./Oklahoma. We've already seen both those games. And one of them lost at home, so if anything, let Oregon take it since it was week 1 on a neutral field. Bring on someone else, sorry you had your chance Bama. I wish Okla had Broyles, I'd take that game.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Nov 17, 2011 -> 12:49 AM) Well the upset isn't happening, but I will not root for it anyway, as I don't want any part of an LSU/Alabama or LSU/Oregon rematch. Let's see this Okie St/LSU game if they get by Okla. Owned, b****. No no no no no no no no no no no no LSU/Alabama rematch. That game has already been played, and the home team lost. Someone else. Anyone else.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Nov 18, 2011 -> 06:40 AM) Anyone ever seen a professional hockey player miss an empty net from literally half a foot away? Almost, if not as bad as Stefan's goof against the Oilers. For those that haven't seen it: QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 18, 2011 -> 07:39 AM) Wow, not only did he miss the net, but he looks like he should have gotten a delay of game penalty for throwing it directly out of play That's in your own zone.

QUOTE (SnB @ Nov 17, 2011 -> 09:35 AM) I'm at the point now where: horribleness of the hangover > fun of being drunk I think that's officially the "i'm old" line. This is bad coming from you. I think a little piece of Justin just died. Also, who's drinking on a Wednesday in the real world?

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Nov 17, 2011 -> 12:06 AM) You b****es better cheer for us taking a whack at Goliath on Friday. Well the upset isn't happening, but I will not root for it anyway, as I don't want any part of an LSU/Alabama or LSU/Oregon rematch. Let's see this Okie St/LSU game if they get by Okla.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 14, 2011 -> 03:24 PM) With the NBA season dead, it's time to dive head first into NCAA basketball for the first time in my life instead of ignoring it until late February. Welcome to the party, please wipe your feet at the door. Beer's in the fridge.

Hahahahahahah go away Boise. Didn't even deserve a chance at that FG, awful PI call to extend the game anyway.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Nov 11, 2011 -> 06:33 AM) Columbus has 5 points in 15 games, on pace for 28 pts for the season. Bad. But they did beat the Red Wings! Scott Arniel is a f***ing douchebag. Once assaulted me. True story. Hope he gets f***ing fired.

QUOTE (SnB @ Nov 11, 2011 -> 01:24 PM) Brothers still have the long island special on Thursdays? Those were lethal. Holy f*** grow a pair, at least drink a jager bomb or a beer. QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Nov 11, 2011 -> 02:13 PM) Yup, I think they are $2 or $3, really cheap. Pitchers were raised to $4 Hahaha that and Kams, easiest places to get in. Brothers has grown on me more and more for nights besides Thursdays, but then again I literally just cross the street to go to it, I love living at Green St Towers. Why. Did. You. Ever. Go. To. Kams. Seriously. Also campus has changed so much Russ, it's ridiculous how weird it can look after a few years.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Nov 9, 2011 -> 09:52 PM) Once again, Paterno reported entirely unreliable evidence to his superiors. He could have called the police, but if he called the police and it turned out this was wrong, he ruined his friends life. Thats not exactly a great position for any human to be in. Instead what happened? QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Nov 9, 2011 -> 09:56 PM) This really needs to be put in perspective. Brian Kelly's direct action caused the death of a student, he is still coaching today. There was no talk of ND death penalty. Its crazy how people swarm and want to destroy a guy. This doesn't help prove your point. Kelly should have been fired too. Just because ND is made up of a bunch of spineless cowards doesn't make it OK to keep Paterno around. I'm surprised you're still posting, figured you be on your way to PSU to chant "one more game" and "we want Joe" with all the assclown students.

Can't wait to see what the dumbs*** students at PSU will do now, some sort of Vancouver-esque riot?

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Nov 9, 2011 -> 09:28 PM) It absolutely should make a difference. Paterno is an old man, he cant fight this. If he was 30 years younger, you think he goes down this way? At worst the guy made a significant error in judgment that is completely unrelated to his job. At minimum he deserves some sort of investigation/hearing where he can speak with PSU about what actions he took and whether or not he followed the rules of the school. Because he did nothing wrong legally. His age should make a difference? He should be fired regardless. To the bolded - if that's how you want to sum up this whole situation...wow. Read this when you get a moment and aren't concerned strictly with the legality of this s***. http://espn.go.com/espn/commentary/story/_...no-retire-terms

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Nov 9, 2011 -> 09:22 PM) The only acceptable outcome is to railroad some one on a grand jury indictment, where they arent even charged with a crime? Where they didnt even see the crime? Where they only heard about it a day after it happened and reported it to their superiors for further investigation? I think there are a lot of other acceptable outcomes and some of them include not rushing to judgment. I personally think Paterno is done as a coach, but to fire him over this is just an excuse to get rid of the guy. If he was 30 years younger and in his prime, this story has a way different outcome. Doubt it. Nor should it make a difference.

Just turned on ESPN and saw it. Glad someone came to their senses. This was the only acceptable outcome.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 7, 2011 -> 10:09 AM) Anyone here have experience with the "Tough Mudder"? http://toughmudder.com/ I'm looking at the one in March and wanted to know if anyone has run one of these. Weird, I just heard about these and am considering doing one in the spring. If you have a specific question or two let me know, I know a guy that does them regularly.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Nov 6, 2011 -> 09:13 PM) Heck, the Big 12 is better than the SEC this year anyway. Uh, no

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Nov 6, 2011 -> 03:05 AM) steve, Brian, I think I went too far tonight. I don't think they would let you post while in jail, so that's one positive...

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 3, 2011 -> 05:36 PM) They showed ILL's pre season game onBTN today. That Griffey kid looks pretty good. I recorded it and haven't watched it yet, but I think you mean Leonard? He's the one who had 18...

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 3, 2011 -> 01:44 PM) That would be the first time Campbell ever hit anyone. QUOTE (MurcieOne @ Nov 3, 2011 -> 07:11 PM) wrong. Campbell hit on Umberger. Beat me to it. Remember watching that live on OLN.

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Nov 2, 2011 -> 09:17 PM) Re: the toilet paper thing... It has been a tradition at that school for like 20 years. The students all do it for the 1st point scored in the 1st game of the season. All the refs and players/coaches from the opposing team know it's going to happen. I think it's kind of cool. And yes, they still get called for the technical anyway. But like it really matters at some no-name, tiny school like that. Just because it's gone on for 20 years doesn't make it not incredibly stupid.

The new Gmail look f***ing sucks. They did the same s*** with their calendar look and I hate that too.
