  1. Ha! I love it! Trust me, I already made it as bare bones as possible. Got the gym for free...no refs, they called their own fouls...I did give T-shirts to the winning team. No lights! I should have done that.
  2. This is simple... Consumers: We all want the cheapest price we can get...for any product or service Business Owner: We all want to make the most money that we can. I used to run a 3 on 3 basketball tourney...I charged 40 dollars per team. After a few years I realized I could get 100 dollars per team. So I started doing that...until a few other places all of a sudden had the same idea I did and there was competition for teams. Things changed a bit for me after that because of that competition.
  3. Hmmmm, I just can't see 18 wins BUT 5-6 teams from the 10 will get in so...who knows!
  4. Take the 8 points and enjoy your free money. This line is off by 5 points.
  5. Yes or No...have you seen Porky's...and if "yes" did you have to watch it with the volume really low in your basement while your parents were upstairs?

      Yes, I've seen it. No, I didn't have to watch it the basement. I'm probably about the same age as, knapp. :D

      Bachelor Party with Tom Hanks was my first "nudie"  show i saw.

  6. I think players should always go early. I know Coach Cal at Kentucky, if his players are projected lotto picks (big difference from NFL and Gates situation I know) tells his players they have to go and if they want to stay they have to CONVINCE him as to why they should. Uh oh...I know where this will end up!
  7. As a coach I have always said that the better team wins the game. UCF won...they are better, that is the great thing about sports...they keep score (even though I know a few people that wouldn't care if they kept score) With that said...I cared about the game a lot today...because I had money on it. I will care about future UCF games...if I have money on it.
  8. So glad we never have to see a statue again!

      So true!  But, still...I will be happy even if they lose as long as they play with class.  :D

  9. I feel like you wouldn't tell the world you have this power...Hmmmm
  10. When I was a kid (and still had hopes and dreams) I would play Madden on Sega Genesis...I basically got so bored with the game that I would get the opening kick off and run out of bounds at the 1 yard line, so that I had to go 99 yards. I would take the entire play clock on each play and sometime even take a penalty for delay of game. I would do this over and over until I used up the entire first half (5 minute quarters) and go into halftime up 7-0 with the other team never touching the ball. I have a feeling some Husker fans want that.
  11. Big Mouth...it is an animated comedy. It is pretty funny but some of the people will watch it and their heads will explode. If you were once a middle school boy most of it will hit home. If you were once a middle school girl some of it might hit home, I have no idea.
  12. Oh, people will complain...it is what we do! You know who doesn't complain...sociopaths. The rest of us will be screaming when a play doesn't work.
  13. I learned that I sucked at trying new things!
  14. Yep! I would do the same as Boyd did, most of us would.
  15. I have done a ton of coaching and one year I used a different approach and man did we suck...it was really reactive and we just sucked. We were in the right spots but we were tackling on on heels and we sucked. I really did a bad job that year.
  16. https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2017/08/21/facebook-teens-tweens-instagram-snapchat/588406001/ It is falling. Teens hate it and only sign up (if they do at all) to play games on their phones. I have asked my classes over and over who uses facebook and it will be about 1 out of every 25 with many replies of "Facebook, that is for dinosaurs" Snapchat and Instagram...that is what high school students and middle schoolers use. I can walk around at school and see snapchat on every phone, twitter on some and facebook on zero. Also, facebook is starting to reactivate old accounts. Mine just got reactivated and I have not used it in 2 years...I don't even know my password. But sure enough, I got an email that welcomed me back to facebook. Now, it is not going away, not for a very long time but they are starting to lose those teens.
  17. I think that people need to stop thinking Wisconsin is slow.
  18. Honestly, most players want to do all they can to help the team win.
  19. Numb brings up a good point (first time for everything!).
  20. Anyone else originally think Stormtroopers were robots and not people?

      I didn't think they were humans for quite a while.

      Like the Dude said, possibly early on...until Luke and Han wore the armor. But I’ve always thought they were a bad shot. Good for them the clones came along and secured the most worthless warriors title. Roger Roger.

      "Jango Fett was a male human bounty hunter, widely regarded to be the best in the galaxy in the years preceding the Clone Wars. "

      Apparently in the Star Wars universe, social learning is far more important than biology, 'cause if Jango was such a bad ass, the stormtroopers should have all been at least decent shots.

      Also, stormtroopers grew up at twice the normal rate so they probably missed out on a lot of training.

  21. Dang...sucks for them. For reals...3-14 in the Big Ten is a toss up this year.
  22. My thoughts: You always take the NCAA, always. Here me out...Winning one game in the NCAA is better than winning the NIT...winning two games at NU in the NCAA and you are a legend. The practice thing is a bit over-hyped. This isn't football where practice is hard to do...basketball practice is easy to set up, year round without the coaches being there.
