  22. I spoke with Sullivan after the game. He expects to be ready for the MSU game on Wednesday.

    He made this sound like a precautionary deal. The dizziness subsided "two or three minutes" after the initial hit.

    ReplyDelete
  23. thank goodness for the email reminders about football season tickets. I remembered renewing them, MrsTHT remembers me giving her the confirmation, yet nowhere do we find any evidence we renewed. It's like we shared the same dream or something. Senility plays strange tricks on the mind.

    ReplyDelete
  32. thanks Jimmy....I'll be sure and run that test.

    wtc, I'll probably get the lower priced $1699 one.

    And I'll probably get it new since Apple is saying they recently fixed the issues. Also there don't seem to be any 27 inch refurbs.

    The interesting thing is that this one is cheaper than the 24 inch model I bought in early 2008..with much better specs.

    The Macbook Air and Macbook Pro notebooks should be getting an update soon so I'd stay away from the current ones if I were in the market for those.

    ReplyDelete
  36. I run Windows on mine currently with no problems. Granted 95% of what I do can be done on the mac side, so it's not like I run the bootcamp side of my machine often.

  49. I wish I had went to Auburn yesterday. From everything I have read the "Wall of Fame" ceremony for baseball was awesome. We may not hold as many championships as other top programs, but I would be willing to put our greatest athletes up against any other program's. Even the baseball players from Missouri were excited to see Jackson, Thomas and Hudson. Olsen was a little too old for them.

  53. Bigger prizes lie ahead, but I'll take a trophy any time I can get it.

    As for Chelski, if they do collapse, the assist goes to Wayne Bridge's ex and we'll have to send her a nice bottle of win or something.

    The non-hand shake between Bridge and Terry yesterday was just awesome. Terry somehow seemed genuinely surprised that Bridge didn't shake his hand.

    ReplyDelete
  97. Canada has kind of ruled the Olympics?

    Overall medal count doesn't say so.

    And let's face it, a US team with probably a quarter of the talent of Canada's in hockey just took them to the wire...on their home ice.

    ReplyDelete
  98. Sidney misunderstood me. Or maybe there was just a long delay in message transmission. When I yelled, "PUT THE PUCK IN THE NET", it was right before Crosby took a faceoff in front of his own netminder.

    ReplyDelete
  99. Well, the way I see it, the series is tied at one a piece.

    Is this best of five or seven? Do we still get a point for taking it to OT?

    ReplyDelete
  100. E-Bro, according to Olympic scoring, let's go with

    USA 4 Canada 2

    3 points win in reg.
    2 points win in OT
    1 point loss in OT
    0 for loss in reg.

    ReplyDelete
  101. E-bro,

    You're obviously sympathetic to losers, but the count I saw has Canada having more wins (gold medals) than anyone. The Olympics is too kind to the first and second losers, in my opinion.

    As far as the hockey goes, it's not like Canada beat a bunch of college kids.

    ReplyDelete
  114. No comparison between Ellis and Lebo looking at their records, but even knowing you have to play dirty to compete in college basketball, Ellis just played too dirty for me.

    For the talent he put out on the court, Ellis really should have done better. Had he not sort of lost the team at the end of the 98-99 season, Final Four would have been within reach.

    ReplyDelete
  115. Coastal is the No. 1 seed going into its league tournament. If he gets this team into March Madness, he'll be a small club of guys who got four teams qualified.

  116. Im depressed about the hockey game

    ReplyDelete
  117. Question for you, Jay, and anyone else who was at the game last night.

    When the students were yelling "Sit down!" and "You suck!" were they yelling at Coach Johnson or at the player who had fouled out (#1). I thought they were saying Johnson, you suck, but some of the students there told me they thought the yelling was directed at a player.

    I wasn't real impressed with our student section.

    ReplyDelete
  118. How many guys wear out their welcome enough to coach at four different places?

    Looking at Cliff's record, his good years are often backed up by poor ones. Sustaining success wasn't exactly his thing.

    He has a pattern of building up the program in the first couple of years, have some success for a couple of years after that, and then there is steady decline and he leaves the program the same way he found it, or worse.

    Maybe he's just the Larry Brown of college basketball. Doesn't need to stay at one place too long.

    ReplyDelete
  119. Cincy, I hate to say it but that all started when I was a student. I'm pretty sure it dates back to the 99 or 2000 season. I agree it isn't very classy, but I will say I was guilty of saying it.

    ReplyDelete
  120. E-Bro ...

    I was in Knoxville the night Ohio State eliminated us in the Sweet 16. I knew Cliff was more style than substance, but Jim O'Brien abused him. Every time Ohio State came out of a timeout, it went on a run. He could recruit and teach the press, but beyond that, he was shaky.

    ReplyDelete
  121. Jet...exactly on the last sentence of your comment.

    I too was at the Sweet Sixteen game in Knoxville. Easily won of the most frustrating games I've witnessed in person.

    ReplyDelete
  122. I always threw up in my mouth a little when watching Cliff's teams have to run a half-court offense. Not a pretty sight.

    Off the ball movement was apparently too novel a concept for his teams to master.

    How his team ever penetrated Syracuse's vaunted zone so effectively in 2003 is beyond me, but I guess most of the credit goes to Marquis for that.

    ReplyDelete
  123. I have no problem with yelling at opposing players (well, almost no problem) but I have a huge problem if it was students being so disrespectful to an opposing coach.

  144. Cincy-they were shouting at the player. Sometimes as a player is walking to the bench they holler 'step,step,step,step' every stride he takes and whenever he starts to sit down, they holler 'sit down' or ' you suck'. Sometimes the player will get to his chair and almost sit down and the students get the phrase almost out and start over again until he sits down.

  162. OK, wtc, I'll take your word for it. They did it a lot in the game last night. And it was always when the coach was standing up. They would yell, sit down and you suck. Didn't seem to me that it was when any players were going to the bench though. It did bother me because it seemed directed at the coach.
