[quote]Has East Saint Louis had a growth spurt? Used to be a whole lot of NOTHING[/quote

Yes, the growth spurt was a casino. Now it is a whole lot of nothing but with a casino.

BTW, that is an old picture, and it is looking East, where the ghetto gives way to cornfields.

And it is not a parabola, it is a weighted catenary arch.

Why should it matter? Last thing they “won” was a co-conference championship in 1969

And the one-trick pony makes his appearance. Come up with some new material.

Because Arkansas fans would have to actually go to the game to be able to rush the field.

AND, more importantly, they would have to win the games.

ZOU! Or this week it's FKU!

Going to the Cardinals game tonight (4 free box seats), but I'm recording it.

Good, better, best
Never rest,
Until your good is better
And your better is best.

Why? Because it’s an opinion piece based on that author’s priorities.

This. Studies have shown that 98% of all studies agree with the party funding the study. I think we know which groups support CNBC.

I am proud to live in a state that ranks low on inclusiveness, child mutilation (sorry, gender-affirming care), and abortion rights (sorry, reproductive rights)

Reports are that he only bet on Indiana games when he was redshirted there. Never bet on a game he played in. He bet on lots of other stuff but not his games. We will see if this is true. Again, lots of postings with no facts.

From the Associated Press:

"According to agreed-upon stipulated facts included in court documents, Sorsby made at least 2,900 bets totaling more than $30,000 while at Indiana from June 2022 through December 2023. Those included at least 40 bets on the Hoosiers games and players, though he didn’t bet on games in which he played."

I heard he was making prop bets on individual players and team stats in Indiana games. So, as a member of the team with intimate knowledge of their game plans and injury status, you don't think maybe what he did is a little bit wrong? :rolleyes:

From the article: "The LPD found multiple gun casings, and Davis said it was a miracle more people weren’t hit."

I picture a bunch of Star Wars storm troopers repeatedly shooting and missing their targets.

If these youts want to carry guns, at least take target practice once in a while. Then again, you would get charged with murder instead of first degree assault.

Could they do an NIT after the first round of the NCAAT and just use all of the losers and let them have some fun with that?

---

Not a bad idea. Have the 12 losers of the play-in games and the 32 losers of the first-round proper and add in some traditional power programs or upstart mid-majors and play games at campus sites.

I don't know how much interest it would draw, but it beats the current NIT/CBA/XYZ tournaments.

I remember when the fake news posted by the Onion was too absurd to consider real without going to extremes.

They did a great bit about a brainstorming session where each of them came up with the most absurd story possible, and they were shot down one by one because they were already happening in real life.
