The Rick Pitino effect builds... His second season with a team is always a big one. With a weak field this year, a tourney run isn't out of the question.

Iowa is done without Reiner, and I think Steve Alford might be done after this year too, unfortunately.

Then we call all put on our Oh faces

What channel is it on? Is it on ESPN anywhere, or just local to the Iowaites?

Threads merged...

Which we shouldn't have done. Corporate welfare is basically bulls***, and should be looked at in at least the same light as they have looked at public welfare. Why should the government support businesses that can't survive on their own?

I take the "I wonder" out of that. Koch will be dealt for any 2 bit prospects we can find now.

This coming from a guy who has had a penis, and drawn make up on a guy for avatars.

That might have been the biggest waste of bandwidth ever.

What do you mean we aren't criminalizing them? The Tobacco companies are paying $500 billion in the settlement of lawsuits brought by.... The US government. Try again.

They just wasted $500,000 for 2004.

No people don't like you because you advocate murder and terrorism, like the Nazis, and then call it for the preservation of your race, like the nazis, and bulldoze innocent peoples houses during the middle of the night, like the nazis, and build walls, like the nazis...

Do you think cigarettes would have been legal if they had known the health ramifications that long ago? Why should the government subsidize people who want to kill themselves, which is exactly what people who drink too much, and addicted to heavy drugs are doing. Even Marijuana has been proven to be a much higher cancer causing agent than cigarettes, by a factor of about 20-1, in some studies. Who pays for these peoples hospital bills when they can't work anymore? That's right you and I do.

And that is the same logic used by the cigarette companies for 30 years swearing that their product didn't cause cancer.

Don't know yet. I think we are leaving town at about 2:30 to set sail for the Hyatt. I am going to see if I can bribe one of my buddies with our extra passes to get into line earlier for us. I haven't heard any definate meet up plans, but something will develop.

This deal is as good as done

I don't know if anyone is interested, but with all of the BS rumors about what the Sox are doing, and the ARod trade and everything else. Why don't we have a contest for who can create the most believable trade rumor? Sound fun?

I know you don't give them for free, but if you look at how successful our alcohol laws have been in general (think about DUI deaths, medical costs, auto insurance costs, families destroyed etc) do you really think the federal government could handle managing a much more destructive substance than alcohol?

I think it was his 300th career win overall right? He hasn't been at UK long enough to win 300 games there has he????

And do you want to pay the medical and other associated bills of these guys because they have no jobs because they are too busy robbing people to pay for their coke habits? I don't. Marijuana I can understand the arguements. Not sure that I agree, but I understand. The hardcore drugs, no way.

Of course, they have Ft Wayne's own Kevin Weekes in goal

Is that Ron Rivera that used to play for the Bears? Or is it someone else.

Yeah that was the year of the OSU backcourt. I always remembered that year because of SMS, because I knew Alford from where I went to college. A few years before that he led our college to the D3 basketball national championship game, which incidently we lost to Bo Ryan's Wisconson Whitewater team. It was the only time in NCAA history that two undefeated teams met for a basketball championship.

1999 and lost to Duke. that is what I thought I couldn't remember the year anymore. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/basketbal...ts/classic.html

They did make it to the sweet 16 one year.
