  1. I don't know anything other than your usual message board crap. Buncha goobers waxing poetically about Brad Stevens and how "It's gonna happen!!". Honestly reminds me of this place during the Urban situation. I give it a 5% chance of happening.
  2. Accuser #3 said she was so fucked up by his assault that she blacked out and shit her pants. Would you be excited to talk about that with some cops? I can't even imagine how I would feel after that. Watson doesn't seem like the type of guy to do something like this but I don't know him from anything other than canned responses to reporters. Right now I think it's 70/30 bullshit. But who knows?
  3. He claimed he wouldn't put any money into a buyout or a new coach. He's given plenty to IU, he has his name on a building or something.
  4. Not even at that level. Sadly, it was Ice, Ice Baby. But it made my Ford Tempo seem pretty cool (to me, not anyone else).
  5. In regards to Brad Stevens, one guy with supposed insider news put it this way: "The last time IU knocked on his door, no one answered. This time when IU knocked, they not only answered but invited them in.". They'd have to offer him 7MM/yr at least, not sure if he even wants to leave the NBA. But you don't get boosters to drop 10s of millions for a buyout and a new contract just to hire some up and comer. They've got to be aiming high. Beilein is too old IMO, would've been a great choice 10 years ago. I've always liked Musselman. Stevens is my #1 choice, though. Make him say "No".
  6. Sorry, I didn't mean the admin has no patience, I mean the boosters, etc. They irrationally think IU should be in the Elite Eight every year. It's a grinder of a job, why do it if you have no connections and already make good money? I just don't think he sees an upside to leaving TT for Bloomington.
  7. I can't see Beard leaving TT. He's spent 15 years of his life there, has family there. Why uproot for a rebuild job in a place that has no patience for a rebuild? Unless he's a masochist.
  8. As a long-time IU fan, my knee jerk reaction is to say that the IU administration could fuck up a wet dream and to prepare for the worst. However, the new AD is an alum and has worked for IU his entire life, also won a ring in '87 as a BB student manager. He got FB coach Tom Allen a well deserved (IMO) raise. Maybe he's the one to get this shit straightened out.
  9. I'd record the same song 3-4 times in a row, so I wouldn't have to rewind the tape when driving around town.
  10. I can remember sometime in the late 80s saying "CDs are a fad, they won't last". Feel free to ask me for gambling tips and stock advice, I obviously know what's what.
  11. She is nowhere near hot enough to be worth all this hassle. WTF is wrong with this dumbass?
  12. Wes Sims stomping on Frank Mir's head is still #1 in my book.
  13. I work at a state agency and I have at least 5 people per day that submit their forms to us completely blank, not one thing filled out. After we reject it and send it back, they call us and can't comprehend why their document wasn't accepted. When shown their error, they claim they had no idea they were supposed to complete the form, even though the document comes with an instruction sheet that explains how to complete the forms.

    I saw an interview with Joe Gibbs, after he retired the first time. He said he knew it was time when he got home late and went in to kiss his son goodnight and his son had a beard.
  15. I was watching a documentary about the Titanic last night, the wife was on her phone and halfway watching it. They talked about Benjamin Guggenheim going down with the ship and how he was so wealthy. The wife says, "Well of course he was wealthy, he printed all of those bibles! Remember how we saw that big one in Washington, DC??".
  16. I bought my kid a '17 Hyundai Elantra last year and 3 of the fucking door handle actuators broke in about 3-4 months. Fucking ridiculous.
  17. Man, I had a dog named Reba as well. So sorry this happened. Prayers to you and your wife.
  18. My dad was given Fentanyl when he was in the hospital for his heart surgery. It made him hallucinate badly. He said he never wanted that shit again.
  19. I've been doing this in regards to my MIL. She's been a widow for more than 30 years, so she's incredibly independent but there's some stuff I didn't think she needed to be doing. Like climbing a ladder to clean her gutters. She fell off a small step stool already so I put my foot down and clean the gutters whenever my wife says they need clening. We had to gently stop her from attending a funeral last year, the deceased died from covid and his widow and child tested positive. The latest was her wanting to go to the store during the worst winter storm we've had in over 140 years. I knew she was stir crazy but I wouldn't let her drive until it was cleared up enough that I could drive to work. I told her I've already buried one mom, she's the only one I have left. She gets it.
  20. My wife and I were discussing this just last night. I told her how I'd like to get away for a weekend, we haven't been on any kind of "trip" since 2018. But I'm really feeling this more than usual because of this virus shit. I've been working at home part time for the last nine months, she's been WAH 99% of the time since March. I'm fucking tired of looking at these walls all the time! I find myself wishing I was in the office when I'm at home. Not all the time, but at least once/twice a week. She said she loves being at home and doesn't share my feelings, ha. I never thought I'd feel like this. I want a break from this "break"!
  21. I dunno man, 45+ years doesn't sound "early" to me. That's a long fucking stretch in the can. If he wasn't a total fuck-up during his near half-century in prison, I can see why they might let him out now.
  22. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/02/25/report-russell-wilson-stormed-out-after-his-ideas-for-fixing-seattles-offense-were-dismissed/amp/?__twitter_impression=true IMO Wilson is a fake-ass douche. Hope he gets traded to the Jets and goes 1-15 every year.
  23. https://www.outkick.com/david-chao-md-multiple-broken-bones-may-be-the-least-of-tigers-worries-expect-more-surgery-to-come/ Yikes
  24. Drugs was my first thought as well. However, it was 7-7:30 AM, how early would he have had to take some pills to make him unable to drive properly at 7? Could it have been residual from some pills he took the night before? I have no idea. Either way, he's damn lucky he didn't hit anyone else.
  25. You think his ex-wife is having a good chuckle, as she sits on her pile of cash? I know if my cheater ex-wife had a bad car accident, I wouldn't hurry on down to church and light a candle for her.
