  1. The real key, of course, is which way the knees bend.
  2. I have no idea! I'm just glad that I remembered it correctly that it was Old Testament himself as the subject in the picture!
  3. Don't forget about his knees. If they bend the right way, he automatically jumps to the head of the pack, regardless of the other skills.
  4. Sure seems that way! Also the correlated "he's only made X (insert percentage < 25 here) of his 3's this year, but is Y for Z (insert makes and attempts for > 40% here) tonight" for multiple players from the opposing team.
  5. Wasn't Iowegia in the NIT?
  6. Yeah, he has always looked like one of those guys who likes to sneak a shot of vodka or gin about every 1/2 hour throughout the day.
  7. I couldn't believe it when I read that he was still in his 40's. I would have guessed pushing 60.
  8. Where's the foul? What a crock of BS.
  9. Walton travels at least half the time he makes a move.
  10. Effing Wagner with another reach in.
  11. Why is it that every time that putz Walton drives he gets a foul called, but any time NU goes in the lane, Michigan can initiate any and all forms of contact with no whistle?
  12. 29 point quarter. Not bad! On the other hand, it's amazing some of the horrible passes they try to force sometimes.
  13. Well, if you can't stop the other team very consistently, just make more 3 pointers than them!
  14. This. Back in the day, NU had very little chance of upsetting the likes of KU, MU, KSU, ISU because NU was the perennial bottom-feeder and would never get any calls their way. My brother said the only team that NU had a reasonable expectation of decent officiating was CU because they sucked too. Every time I see Self, Williams or Krisczhershevski complaining I scream at them to shut up - they have absolutely nothing to complain about regarding officiating. I live here in the heart of ACC country and always have to laugh that when Duke and UNC face off, the officials don't know which team to screw because they're so used to making it 8 on 5 whenever either one of them plays a different team.
  15. I predict that "The Russians hacked my homework" will replace "The dog ate my homework" as the No. 1 excuse in 2017 for school childrens not having their assignments finished on time.
  16. That's where they get in trouble much of the time. They have a preconceived notion about certain types of plays/movements that their experience tells them has to be a foul, so they blow the whistle before they can process what they really saw. In their defense (I can't believe I just typed that), I tend to do the same thing with live action that a replay clearly shows nothing was there.
  17. I don't think so.
