Only thing in Indiana that I've ever seen that is non-partisan is school board.

I guess that's why I'll likely never run for any office. I would puke just thinking about putting a D or R next to my name.

If I were running for local office, unless the locale is overwhelmingly partisan and I am running for that particular party, I would never put my party on my literature. Just my name and my platform and let those speak for themselves. I'd also hesitate to put my name alongside candidates for other offices. Just because we're in the same party doesn't mean those other candidates aren't corrupt assholes.

Anybody else watch Requiem for the Big East Sunday evening? One of the best 30 for 30 films I've seen. -

Yes, but an announcer can do that without yelling and screaming and getting overexcited about everything. Since I'm near Cincinnati, I sometimes put Reds games on just to listen to Marty Brennaman.

Start exporting natural gas to Europe to reduce their energy dependency on Russia. Freeze assets (which I believe he has done) Trade sanctions (but only if the EU goes along, otherwise it's pointless) But the natural gas thing is the best thing he can do.

Dunn not in the best shape of his life

OPS is one of the best measures for offensive production, and Dunn plays DH so there are no defensive measures. -
Dunn not in the best shape of his life
cabiness42 replied to The Ultimate Champion's topic in Pale Hose Talk
In 2013, Dunn had a .762 OPS, Viciedo had a .731 OPS, and DeAza had a .728 OPS. So why exactly is it a bad thing that Dunn is taking PA from DeAza and Viciedo? Taking PA away from an inferior hitter and giving them to a better hitter is generally accepted as a pretty good strategy. On a team where every single hitter on the team sucked, you are singling out the guy who sucked the least and demanding that the Sox pay him $15 million just to get him off the team. It's like there's a entire group of short people and singling out the tallest of them and deciding you hate his f***ing guts because he's short. It's like singling out a guy who just had his 65th birthday and deciding you hate his f***ing guts because he's old. Do I need to go on? -

For rogue nations/terror groups, obtaining a long range warhead is nearly impossible, possibly even more so than hijacking a 777 without getting caught.

Virginia is the #1 seed that Michigan or Villanova could have potentially had. The other three have been settled for a while. WSU is #4 in the RPI, #4 in Pomeroy and #3 in BPI SF Austin is #57 in RPI, #59 in Pomeroy and #73 in BPI The two teams really aren't comparable.

I find it very surprising that he was arrested and charged. Carmel has a lot of very wealthy people and the police there have been known to let a lot of stuff go. -
IU also declined.

I came up with Florida, Arizona, Louisville and Michigan State. Before the brackets came out, I had both Louisville and Wichita State in the Final Four. That region was my toughest call.

Who knows what the target could have been. Terrorists don't always have political and/or religious motives. Sometimes they are just bats*** crazy.

Teams who win games with a player and then lose the player for the tournament get their seed dropped all the time. Why does the opposite not happen? A team that loses without a player and then gets the player back never gets their seed raised.

espn.com Sunday morning Bracketology: South: 1 Florida, 2 Kansas, 3 Syracuse, 4 Creighton West: 1 Arizona, 2 Wisconsin, 3 Iowa State, 4 San Diego State Midwest: 1 Wichita State, 2 Duke, 3 Louisville, 4 Michigan State South: 1 Michigan, 2 Villanova, 3 Virginia, 4 UCLA So yeah, if this ends up being it, the committee has essentially said, "Nice undefeated run Wichita, but f*** you!" -
Well yes, I think we all obviously hope that these 200+ people are still alive. The fact that this would also mean that somebody has pulled off possibly the best caper ever is an added bonus. It's also possible that the hijackers were going to do something majorly disastrous and these 200+ people took the plane down to prevent it, just like the 4th plane on 9/11. That's the next best outcome to all these people being alive.

No, unless the father is 100% out of the picture, the potential of becoming a stepparent creates a real mess. I've been through it as a child, and it made me 100% certain that I am not going to go through it as a parent. I'm not saying that this needs to be the position of everybody, but I feel that it is justified.

Deserving or not, no way an IU team with a winning record gets left out of the NIT.

THAT'S FANTASTIC! (for the rest of the NFC North) -
Does Michigan know that they are allowed to shoot inside the 3pt line?
