Tuesday Morning Open Thread

That about says it all… :-}

That’s very cool. I don’t really wear t-shirts all that often, but if I did, I would totally buy one of those, too. : )

Also, don’t forget to wear a bit of green (maybe some cute earrings with green or something) for St. Patricks’s Day — I would hate for you to get pinched. : )

Look where W The President logo took the Commander and Chief.

do me a favor, if you don’t mind. Have a moment of silence (just you) for all those guys who sweated in that great place and who DIDN"T make All-American, or even letter on the varsity, for that matter. I’d appreciate it. Thanks.

 Lost sitting on the set for NBA stuff. Clearly no athletic talent or clue as to how games are really played, like most sports reporters.

…I agree. We aren’t fans of Wilbon either. But you hit the nail on the head with the crazy uncle comparison. Sometimes stuff comes out of his mouth that’s it’s quite obvious his brain didn’t filter. Half the time I think he’s just saying it to generate buzz.

antitrust restraint of trade argument. It’s obvious he hasn’t read the Sherman or Clayton Acts.

Just what we need. The government could inject itself into our leisure activities, like viewing and rooting for our favorite sports teams, just like they have in our economic circumstances. Uhhhhh, Representative Frank what do you think of playing zone against the 3-point shot? PLEASE!!!!!

I thought he was against government intervention in the BCS a few months ago, I may not recall correctly.

You can’t stereotype an entire fanbase on the actions of 5%

We weren’t like this 20 years before Billy G got here. I still support him and think he needs at least one more year, but the heat has been here forever. You have to know if you don’t succeed these things are going to happen and if you can’t deal with it, don’t take the job. That said, I think Billy G can deal with it fine. But I can’t say that I really feel sorry for him or agree with Wilbon who is basically trying to play the race card with the Tubby deal, it’s pretty obvious.

way that I feel about the “hope we don’t win” thing………..you aren’t a fan if you think that. I true fan hope this is a turning point for the Cats.

Many fans thought the glory days were gone forever.

know……….the one thing that concerns me is apparently this is a three point shooting team which we have had trouble winning against. I think though that the Cats have an advantage as far as atmosphere. I am hoping that the roaring crowd gets them pumped.

I am so tempted to jump in the car and go up there!

daniel I would pay the money just to feel that rushing blood going through my veins as the fans go nuts for their Cats. See I have never gotten to go to a Rupp game. All the games I have been to have been away, well two games I went to was when they were in Nashville for the tourney in 2003. and that was like a home game but not Rupp. I feel some of you don’t realize how lucky you are. Its the one place I want to go before I die………not Australia, not cruise around the world, Rupp Arena during a game.

A few layups?

wasn’t even down and no baskets.

HI OldCat,
Change to another browser. You are probably using Internet Explorer. If you use mozilla’s firefox, you will get a spell checker. And you don’t have to abandon IE, because for some things, IE is best. (Example: you can’t download new templates from MS except through IE). Keep them both in place and use the one that suits your need. (I use Firefox 90% of the time)

..The two slaps at Walker and Robey getting paid… heh…
And Joe B. Hall had NOT been fired… Ridiculous…

Last night I sat down with my girlfriend’s five year old daughter and had her pick the entire field. There is a slight problem in the fact that she had Stephen F. Austin winning… but I’ll be honest, if I take the game where she has them beat Oklahoma and push the Sooners through to the title instead, its actually not a bad bracket. (Plenty of odd upsets though… who knows?!!?)

….a little trash-talking is just what we need.

Also, regarding prizes for the ASoB bracket challenge, just look at what I found from last year — according to this link it looks like Tru did in fact promise prizes for this year’s winners. I wonder what he had in mind?

I’m going to throw out a suggestion just to help out a little and do my part – I strongly recommend bourbon. It’s always a classic choice, it’s good warm, it’s good cold, it’s good with friends, it’s good when you are alone, it’s good when you get home from work after a crappy day, it’s good after a win or loss — and best of all, it’s a prize that works for both males and females. Yep, the prizes should most definitely be bourbon. ; )

But point taken.
