  1. There is not a topic that is debated more than stretching, when it comes to football (or all sports). I still have my team do it because I like to chat with my coaches while the kids stretch and it gives the captains something to do! ha
  2. Michigan's class will really start blowing up in the next month.
  3. Maybe they just like going to warmer places?
  4. I love that people always bitch about the songs! If they are joking, its funny! If they are serious, its funny! haha
  5. It's a good question. I've got a good sized basement, but wasn't using it that much until I upgraded a 20 year old couch with some nice leather home theater seat recliners, and added 2 32" TVs along with the big screen so I could have more games on. Totally worth it to me because now I spend every fall Saturday down there, and use it more other times. I think you want to make it appealing enough that you want to use it. I had just as nice of a TV upstairs so without something extra I didn't bother going down there much. I put up some Husker memorabilia and bar signs and stuff and think it looks pretty cool now. Mini fridge, you bet. Most things are just whether you think you'll use them, or really like the look, and have the space and money. Pool tables especially take a lot of space though they look great in a game room. When I built my house I made sure I had room for one but if/when I ever move I won't do it again. Darts, you just need an alley way and a bit of wall space, and it's lower cost, and I use that just as much. I just this morning ordered a Stiga hockey game. I'd love a dome hockey table but they cost a lot more and take more room, and I've got a perfect counter with space on each side for the table top game. I had a classic game in the 60s when they were built great, but it must not have made a move somewhere, and a cheaper built game in the 90s that basically fell apart when we tried to play it this weekend. The drawback is that unlike pool, darts, pinball, etc, which you can play by yourself as well as others, you need an opponent for hockey. But it's so damn fun, and looks good too. A lot of guys come over and look at the pool table and nod approval, but when they see a hockey table they really light up. Seems like a pinball table and jukebox could brighten up a basement nicely but I never really got into pinball and would just rather pipe music through my home theater speakers with an mp3 player so I just added some rope lights to kind of get some lighting effect. I always liked trains and have a nice set up at the other end of the room where my pool table is. It's a space hog but a big attraction when I have people over, plus I'm really proud of showing off all my son and I did on it, especially the mountain with tunnels we made. Whatever you do, just make it yours. Use the space and funds for things that you like and you'll enjoy it more. I love the 3 TV ideas.
  6. Oh wait...I forgot...bathroom at cigarros (no, I did not have to pay extra)
  7. i am not a doctor, but this activity seems ill-advised with a bad back. Why...you are not doing her back! haha
  8. I was on a little trip to Kansas with a girl "friend" and her family...about 15 of us were in her families lake house and the first night we were sleeping on a futon in the basement. One of her uncles was sleeping about 15 feet from us and the rest of the people were on the main floor or the top floor. I can remember thinking that if the uncle woke up, or, if he was in fact up and not yet sleeping that he could see what was going on or at the very least hear things like, "Is it in" or "That's it?" or "Come on, stop crying Teacher" or "No, Teacher, I will not hold you" but as far as I know, he did not see or hear a thing. Of course...had he been yawning when it started I would have been done before he finished his yawn.
  9. Anyone else thinking that OSU wins pretty easily Saturday? I think they win pretty big actually.

      I think it will be a dog fight.

      JT Barrett's knee not being 100% I give the edge to MSU. If he was completely healthy OSU might have a good chance to knock Sparty off.

      I think the opposite happens....MSU wins by 2+ scores

  10. Man, that Walking Dead was BORING

  11. All your film prep is basically done, you watch about 3 full games to get an idea of what a team will do or try to do... Things like trick plays and gadget plays should be accounted for in your defensive scheme anyway. Now, if Beck would have come over vs Purdue with Fyfe at QB, running only the wishbone...then it would have been "putting something on film" but that is about it. I suppose on wrinkle we might see for UW is that the jet sweet motion might be used more as a "give" instead of a decoy.
  12. You dated girls in high school! You are probably the coolest poster on this board now! I was terrified of girls in high school...and college...and now
  13. Your basement will be like John Gacey's basement
  14. I think it would be cool with just a mini fridge, big screen, nice couch, video camera (hidden of course) and maybe a dart board.
  15. Man, how expensive are shuffleboard tables and how the hell do you even move them?
  16. Isn't college where a lot of guys are hoping to meet the woman they marry, too? Probably...but I don't think guys in 12th grade are like "Man, I can't wait for college so I can meet the girl I will marry" Oh, no doubt. My goals were decidedly shorter term. Haha. Ha! I hear that!

  18. I don't think they go with the sole intention of meeting the guy they will marry...I think many are just hoping/assuming that is where it will happen...I mean, what is more romantic than drinking free cheap vodka and doing shots off an ice luge while frat guys try hitting on you! God I wanna be back in college!
  19. I think you are right...I think college "in general" is where lots of girls are hoping to meet the man they marry...
  20. Come on game time in Madison...be 2:30 and not 11am!

      Woah no. Night game, let's go.

  21. I am not gonna lie...I love the title that I made to this thread!
  22. So, the last post in the (Woman gets compliment and hates life) thread jogged my memory about something... There was an urban legend going around (from one of my buddies girlfriend that was in a sorority at the time) that girls in her house would sign up for classes where there would be a higher % of possible Pre-law and Pre-med guys...hoping to meet them in college and snag them as a long term investment. Now, I have no idea if it is true or not and I really don't know what Pre-law or Pre-med classes/courses are but she swears that her friends would sit around, looking at the old N-Roll magazine (some of you might remember that) and try to determine which classes might be loaded up with future lawyers and doctors. I, on the other hand, was always looking for History of Jazz...History of Rock and Roll...History of Easy Classes...things like that.
  23. I love this! I am gonna make a new thread cause of this post...
