MBB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

[iwu70]

That KU/OSU game was a real good one, for sure.

KU/UK should be really good too -- talk about a match up of "real men" -- with the size, strength and length of these guys, the lightening quickness of some of the guards.  Bigtime talent, as well it should be.  Looks like 4-6 of them might be in the NBA next year. 

I'll be cheering for Bill Self and the KU team.  (fired Bruce Weber to Kansas State next season).

Then, basketball season on the college level will truly be over -- save for the women's national championship game.  I see ND just took down UConn.  Baylor is going at Stanford now.  Some very serious women's hoops as well -- esp. the 6/8" lady from Baylor, I guess the Hannah Munger of DI women's hoops.  She dunks and she blocks bigtime.

Baylor is dominating Stanford and looking forward to KU/UK tomorrow as well. Having a daughter and son-in-law who are Purdue grads means we won't be rooting for ND. LOL

Q, I like your plans for the lottery money -I'm pullin' for you!

I think you mean TitiansIWU.   These things happen when you take a few days off.

Yep. If Bob had won the lottery, he would've spent it all on buying four or five golf courses.

I'd also buy a plane and hire a pilot, to fly me to every IWU game and back from Lincoln, NE!

I would buy a plane, but I would learn how to fly it. Then I would fly out and pick you guys up in the party plane for trips to the Final Four (also New Zealand). This would also solve my whole dilemma of how to get cookies to the Wheaton basketball team. I would also buy a 100+ft schooner which can be used to make Calvin-Wheaton in-region, as well as do party boat sailing cruises to watch all the former D3 players playing in Europe. After that I'd solve the whole lack of safe drinking water globally problem.

I'd probably also keep DC as my home base, but it's DC.

I might experiment with cameras mounted on helmets worn by the coaching staff, and possibly a jacket-toss cam trained on GG at every home game to get the precise moment.

the jacket-toss cam is the most underutilized camera angle.

I think the camera should be attached to the jacket, so when it's thrown you'd get a first hand in-flight view.

But if you fly the party plane, you can't party!! However, the jacketcam is a great idea

what if he ripped off the jacket - and the jacket flew him instead.

Now that would be worth watching.

Ah oh, messed with a Hof - my Karma is suffering.

I violated the first law of D3 chat.

Hahaha, I lose one to two everyday(within the hour I've lost one)--join the club!

Oh come on already -- you guys know the best way to lose karma is by complaining about your karma total.

I would understand if any of my posts were derogatory or demeaning, but to lose two per day  for no reason other than the fact that I post here is absolute B.S. And, I was just commenting on Dennis' post. Now that I've got that off my chest....LOL

By the way... you guys know a winning Mega Millions ticket was sold in Baltimore County, Maryland... anyone know where I live generically???

not true in this room - the best way to lose Karma in this room is to prove our resident HoF wrong on anything - the other HoF come out like bees to honey.

You're always good for some outstanding sarcastic humor-my favorite kind

My lawyer and accountant have advised me to be patient... but I can say I won.

Newton H.S. senior Peyton Wyatt committs to Elmhurst.  6'2", 180 lbs shooting guard.  IBCA second team all state.  1,500+ career points.  Haven't seen him play, but heard a lot about him.  Good pickup for Elmhurst.
