  1. It was more than just their tourney; their regular season was completely insane also. A random Tuesday league game had the passion of a playoff elimination game like two teams were fighting for their lives. I'm not even a huge basketball fan but it was impossible to take your eyes off that level of intensity. With guys still playing out their full scholarships in that era there were like a half dozen legitimately great teams at any given time; they had also been playing each other enough over those 3-4 years to have time and opportunity to build up very personal rivalries that just ratcheted everything up another notch. It was so nuts that they had to start letting kids play with 6 fouls during intraconference games. That time and place will absolutely go down as one of my top 5 favorite eras in any sport at any time. Thank you Lou for the ability and class you always displayed. And for the sweaters.
  2. After dealing with postseason injuries that have negatively affected both of them, I'm suspicious that they have a protect yourself pact for the regular season so they can go into January at full health.
  3. That was probably to get Cam Lewis out of Taron's spot, as he was getting eaten alive.
  4. Did he have to take 6 months between bouts to catch his breath? I freely admit that I am a total weather nerd. 100%. I'm just not smart enough with it to tell others what's up. btw, I am also a book nerd, a sports nerd, a science fiction nerd, a hiking nerd and a whole bunch of other nerds all rolled into one. I'm like a one man nerdpack.
  5. Should we start a Weather Debate thread to draw them away?
  6. I would agree that this is not the thread for it.
  7. Yes, it's good to take time to appreciate the nice things in life 🤙
  8. Now I can't wait to see what y'all think the username stands for
  9. That one stunned me stupid. I'm all for unexpected aggression when playing with a lead, but that 3rd down call was beyond the pale.
  10. <cusses himself for leaving that one off his list>
  11. I'm just here to register my approval of people still using the word "Drat"
  12. So you are saying this is.... wait for it ...... a House call?
  13. I also thought you guys were going to savage them. Those issues in front of Mahomes are going to sting you eventually.
  14. It's Black and Silver Friday!
  15. just got home how do the Chefs have only 3 points?
  16. My hate has just transformed into a sort of joyous schadenfreude. If they want to keep giving WRs and CBs millions of dollars while gutting their lines, I'll just sit back and gleefully munch on my popcorn.
  17. If I ran a franchise, Nate Peterman would never be my QB1.
  18. I'm not sure that's the case this year. They got pushed around like somebody's little brother last night.
  19. You should have just shown up in the top of the 9th so you didn't have to sit through a whole Bucs game
  20. If I ran a franchise, there would be no conceivable scenario where I would willingly put a rookie QB on the field.
  21. A few years ago my wife started agitating to get a Boston Terrier. Even though I don't know ***** all about the breed, it was still instantly a hard No.
  22. That's like the 5th time this week I've totally aged myself on here
  23. I have a hard time buying it, but that would be just perfect.
  24. Would it be possible to bug the hell out of you by calling it Frisco all weekend ? - )
