  1. It’s like a regular tornado watch but extra spicy and more cheese.
  2. Would have loved to see this Carr Dec-Feb.
  3. Yeah, we got nobody that can guard him straight up one on one.
  4. That’s why I’m bitching about the refs. Not the hack a big calls. The perimeter call discrepancy is obnoxious. We can’t touch outside the key but they can push Texas 2 feet off their path and whistle held. And any ticky tack call puts Purdue into the bonus that much faster.
  5. Not sure what condition you’ve had but that is not a medical diagnosis.
  6. Getting jobbed by zebras
  7. Because he realizes that Texas played like dog crap for half of the first 20 and Purdue is in trouble if Texas actually plays like Round 1.
  8. Number, absolutely, job one is for Beard to get an reasonably athletic big out of the portal. And preferably one that can shoot a little further than 18 inches from the basket.
  9. Nobody has talked to me because I can still roll that ball and protect most of our cities. I was a badass in the 80's. Just ask anyone at Malibu Golf and Games. I can also go 8 bit with a joystick because the Atari 2600 was my jam as well. There is probably quite a few of us that could be called up.
  10. They should really put tasers at every ticket counter in the airport. That took way too long. This guy gets to take a car, train or bus for a long time.
  11. Texas needs to be put this team away. Hanging around a little too close for a 2/15 match up.
  12. Same sex. I think someone in favor of transgender people in sports can start begging the question and ask about all the other factors that make sports unfair for people of different morphology. If you take M. Phleps as an example. He trained hard but he is also built like a freakish combination of a frog and a dolphin giving him a genetic leg up on men and the world. We could tilt the conversation into languages, math, science, theater, etc. There are people in this world that just do things better than you or I because their genetic coding allows them to do it better no matter how much we work on that same skill. I cannot learn five languages fluently with nearly the proficiency of a couple of people I know. It then becomes up to our society to put value on those talents. Swimming fast in a pool or hitting a tennis ball over a net doesn't do much for society as a whole but a lot of people enjoy the competition. I know I wouldn't be so Spock like about it if it were my daughter competing against the trans swimmer. There should very much be an asterisk on these records being broken if we are talking strictly "women's" swimming titles.
  13. So frickin frustrating. Call a better play and put someone taller in for the inbounds. This isn’t rocket science.
  14. Gonna get called flagrant bc pedulla is a toddler.
  15. That was crap. But there have been some head scratchers both ways.
  16. Beard needs to call a time out.
  17. Carr and Tim showing up on same day!!
  18. It’s like they’ve never broken a press before. WTH??
  19. True but it sounds like she needs some Afrin.
  20. So you’re tired of the off-season already?
  21. He’s either been schemed against better or has just slumped this last part of the season. It’s a big concern.
  22. He plays standing straight up. Takes all athleticism out of his game. Looks like a tree.
  23. I actually don't agree with allowing the genetic male to compete in this realm but my point is that we have a traditional separation in our culture for sports competition based on a relatively objective mark (biological gender). The transgender community wants to move that point of division. I'm playing devil's advocate in pointing out that there are inherent and significant advantages in having athletic parents with morphology that lends to their progeny to excel in certain sports. Should I claim it's unfair that I am not 6'10" and run a 4.5 40 and demand that 6"10" people shouldn't compete against me in basketball or football? Our society is rapidly accepting postmodern truth and gender for many has become fluid.
