Tennessee beating Virginia ended the last two perfect brackets
Missed free throws cost Florida. They’re called “free” for a reason.

Have you ever listened to “Sign O’ The Times” in its entirety? If so, even tho I disagree with your premise, I respect your opinion. To me, Prince’s only musical peer was Stevie Wonder and Stevie was before his time. Here’s one of my favorite tracks from Prince, and it was never released as a single!

Ray Charles knew we were bombing Iran. Where do you people come from?
And good ol’ Ray has been dead for awhile now. My dear, departed Mom wanted to bomb Iran way back in 1983 when her middle son was on Embassy duty in Beirut. Trump is being merciful compared to my Mom!
True story. She was in grade school when Hiroshima and Nagasaki were nuked. I didn’t tell her, but she found out I was in Lebanon (I’m pretty sure my grand uncle told her). She, a lifelong Democrat, wanted President Reagan to nuke Iran. Just because her Terell MIGHT be in danger! Love you, Mom
Kinda need some funk in this thread. Happy to oblige!
Tonight was the first time in my 65 years on planet Earth that I didn’t watch one second of the Oscars (military service excluded). I usually tune in for the major awards at the end, but I didn’t give a damn about it this year. Will probably do the same thing next year!

Going out on a limb, but i would say 1 loss
I know this board is strictly all troll all the time, so I will assimilate. I’m not an Auburn fan. But if Alabama flames out in the tournament, you WILL hear from me again!

This track and “What You Won’t Do For Love” won me plenty of liquor money in my Navy days in bar bets. RIP, Bobby Caldwell!:
What’s the difference between 16 losses and 15 losses in the big picture? There have been 15 loss teams who have made the Dance. All this tells me is that having a tough schedule didn’t mean squat to this committee. Schedule cream puffs in your OOC, win about 40% in conference and you’ll make the tourney.

we were robbed
You were. Miami of Ohio played NOBODY and beat NOBODY. I still remember when Jackson State went undefeated in the regular season, lost in the conference championship game and still got punted to the NIT. If the Red Hawks survive SMU, Tennessee will annihilate them.

Ditto. President Trump is being merciful. Me, I’d be like the Mossad tracking down Nazis after WWII.
I thought “Home At Last “ would be one of the first replies! The inspiration comes straight from “The Odyssey”. I think Homer would like it:

For sure, it’s been scrubbed now. But I’m going to find it, even if I have to summon the Wayback Machine!
Here’s proof that LBJ had NO PROBLEM with using that word. Now, let me find that quote!

have been looking for a source for this quote for a long time but the internet seems to have scrubbed it. I always figured it could be useful in some discussions.
I was a PoliSci major when I attended Austin Peay, and I can swear on a STACK of Bibles that I saw that quote in one of my textbooks! Nixon’s “Southern Strategy” was the direct counter to LBJ’s declaration. It’s been over 40 years since I was in college, and I’m pretty sure that those textbooks are out of print now! But I’ll give it a shot

George Wallace was Bill Clinton before Bill Clinton. Plus, he didn’t have to deal with Hillary
I see that We The People have forgotten about October 23, 1983. The Marine barracks bombing in Beirut. I haven’t. I was there. Hezbollah was responsible, with support from IRAN. They’re getting off light with this action by President Trump. If it was up to me, Tehran would be a plate of obsidian glass.
I know that God told us that “vengeance is mine”, but I’m posting here and now that I would wreak vengeance on Iran and take my chances on Judgment Day. The only thing keeping me out of Israel right now are my 7 grandkids. My wife has been at rest in Beaufort National Cemetery for 2 years now. When my time comes, I’ll be right next to her, together again.

Before I retired, my workplace had mandatory SH training. The poor lady instructor came up with different scenarios every year. I came up with the most asinine, off the wall counter scenarios every year. I finally stopped when I got her to admit that it is only SH when the “victim” doesn’t consider herself attracted to her “harasser”. Why? Because I was the MAIN harasser! The women that I messed with enjoyed every single minute.

I’m sorry to say that now that I have discovered this board, y’all are going to need industrial strength Raid to get rid of me! MY favorite harmonica song is THIS…featuring Stevie Wonder and written by Prince!
