The more this drags on, the less I care about it. I wonder how many other people are like me and find themselves losing interest. That could really work out in Watson's favor. If he doesn't get a criminal conviction, he could more easily get a job when this has ended.

Sometime in the 90s, my wife's cousin was carjacked. The carjackers couldn't drive a manual, so they shot her cousin to death. They were caught and convicted. Her uncle goes to every parole board hearing to try and keep them locked up for good.

The Owner wasn't the full owner? Did he even have 50%?
He had 40%, his mom and sister have some too.
They should go the EPL route and call themselves Washington FC. Forget the nickname.

So this pussy couldn't even do a handbrake turn? Pfft, what a loser.

What are you hearing today? Indiana boards are buzzing.
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.

For most reasonable people, “DW assaulted me yesterday so I’m filing a police report today” is much easier to believe than “DW assaulted me a few months ago and I’m suing him for it now”.
The allegations may be true, but the optics of the first scenario are much more likely to garner sympathy.
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?

I imagine 'boosters' largely means Mark Cuban. If he doesn't have at least 10 NBA head coaches on his speed dial, he for sure knows all of their agents and knows which ones are likely to listen to an IU offer.
I'm not aware of any other college basketball program in the country that has a billionaire superfan who's as much of a basketball insider as Cuban. Should make the job search interesting.
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.

Spandau Ballet really go to you huh?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).

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".

I think some of that's wishful thinking. Indiana doesn't have "patience" because in college basketball, rebuilding doesn't take more than three years. Example, Texas Tech under Chris Beard. There are plenty of reasons for him to stay but this idea that Indiana is going to shoot him out of the saddle before he gets a fair shot is silly.
If you're right, though, then maybe Indiana will prefer Oats since he's got Alabama on the cusp of the top line in his second season.
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.

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.

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.

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.

Wes Sims stomping on Frank Mir's head is still #1 in my book.

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.

Saw an interview with John Madden years ago. They asked him why he got out of coaching so young. He told a story about breakfast one morning with the family, and it was a game week, so he was preoccupied. His wife told him that he'd promised to get their oldest son a car when he turned sixteen. He said he snapped at her, asking her why she was bugging him about that when it was game week and there was plenty of time. She told him the boy was turning sixteen the next week. He said he knew something wasn't right when he didn't know within two years how old his son was.
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.

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??".

What in the fuck are y’all doing with your door handles? I’ve got 3/4 million miles on plastic GM door handles back to my 2000 and haven’t broken anything but the tailgate once when I had a roundbale stuck between the tailgate and tool box. That one actually left a nice little gash in my hand. I don’t like they way the Tahoe/Yukon handles feel, but we haven’t broken one yet. We=wife and 3 kids.
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.

Man, I had a dog named Reba as well. So sorry this happened. Prayers to you and your wife.

I got an IV of Fentanyl when I dislocated my knee and it took the pain from like a 9 to maybe a 3. It was like I didn't even care that I was hurt. That stuff is insane.
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.

As the in law spouse, you may be better able to speak with your wife's parents about how they want to live out their lives.
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.

Every day is the same. Every. Fucking. Day. I now know why retired people go fucking insane. I miss the life I had before. The traveling, meeting new people, dinners, etc.
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"!

Sell me a shower head
in Can You Help Me With This?
Posted
I always get the one marketed as a "US Navy" shower head. Small, no frills but you get that extra power. I've put them in every house I've lived in, can't do without it.
Here's an example. I don't have this one but 95% of them look like this.
