  1. so we need to take a collection an paypal that Indiana writer to, you know, rethink his case more closely?
  2. sat, jan 12, 1991.. iowa st home opener. at the game with an ex---i was crazy in love. turning her into a live hoops fan, which was good because she got a faculty discount on tickets...:) we win, I think, by 10. I'd never been happier before or since. we get home, night of bliss ahead, recruiter car pulls up to girlfriends house (the story of how they got that one is sweet in itself) at just after 11:30 PM. Got orders to return to Saudi via Ft Leavenworth that night for what I thought was another stint at Desert Shield. Oops!. I have had many happy days thankfully, since that game. But I knew I would never live a happy life after that day. So that one will be seared into my memory above all others.
  3. we've played well on the road lately. we'll at least keep this one close. but fans are nuts if they take any game in this conference for granted right now. Just as we can beat anyone on any given night, so can the rest of the league do to us. I'm sure the players understand this. And they also know what's at stake.
  4. the committee doesn't turn in its eyeballs before retiring for deliberations. and the closer you are to the bubble, the closer those eyeballs look. I think we'll do well in a closer inspection if push comes to shove. The obsession with tier 1 (a concept which you should enjoy this season, because it'll be gone next) is understandable, but these are people who take pains t make sure they get it as right as they can. I think NU looks good right now on close inspection. Strong finishes also matter a great deal--they've always been on record as saying that is one of their biggest tie breakers (what's the mo?). All these things will add up IF we do what we can. I'm not worried about this team making the Dance provided they do their job and win the games they're supposed to. If they do that, they're going to go.
  5. none whatsoever. I ain't on the court. I'm not making a difference in any way, shape or form. Now for the truth: If it's a close game, I start sacrificing chickens to Jobu.
  6. Holtmann's the big surprise, and I gotta admit, he's my choice, even with a bit of fade at the end. Miles is likely going to get some votes again. Everyone likes the coaches that finish way above where they were predicted. Purdue was expected to be good this season. And they are. Same with Izzo. Next year will be interesting, too, because I think Underwood's going to be in the mix. The Illini aren't far off.
  7. What an awesome post. I just made a peace sign with my Lucky Charms. I agree, though. All opinions are welcome--except Kidneys. Actually, his is welcome, too, because it's usually pretty funny. If you're taking the time to post and express even a singular emotion about Nebraska basketball, you are, by definition, a good fan.
  8. naked gun is an auto-like. it's a rule, I think.
