    I don’t say that’s how you think it…

    This has 12-13 point loss written all over it

    This might be the worst game Rob has ever played. He missed a wide open feed to TJD right before X forced it.

    I’m so sick of this NBA tendency to have a 2nd quarter group sub in.

    I feel especially important now b/c I, too, can claim no connection between me and anything. I'm from Indiana, attended IU some time ago, and have a completely non-basketball job. I abandoned Facebook a while ago so my profile/feed makes no references to connections within the IU program. Some have even referred to me as a gambling expert that nobody knows.

    IUBB vs Minnesota - 1/09/22 @ Noon on BTN

    Lol. Happy we won but I had Minny +11.5 and the under 132. So that last Galloway dunk….yeah.

    Charlton Warren hired at UNC

    We should give the head coach at South Alabama a call right away.

    Interesting to be 1 spot ahead of Providence with a combined 6-2 quad 1/2 record to our 2-3 record.

    Coffee Geek-ery

    I do, but to be honest I think I just picked it up on Amazon several years ago and haven't put much thought into quality there. I see I have much to learn!

    Coffee Geek-ery

    For some good ol' fashioned American style pour over, I've been ordering from Philz Coffee in San Francisco. Jacob's Wonderbar is probably my favorite bean of all time for a regular coffee. Chemex pour over is my brewing mechanism of choice. But again, those cups are much fewer and farther between these days as I've gone full on espresso.

    Coffee Geek-ery

    Oh man, I love this. I've converted almost exclusively to espresso drinks. Many years ago we took a trip to Italy and I never looked back. I wanted to get a nice espresso machine after that trip but my wife opted for a Nespresso b/c "a real espresso machine is something you'll use for 2 weeks and then it will just take up a bunch of space on the counter." She knows me well. The Nespresso served me well for about 6 years until recently she upgraded me to the Terra Kaffe TK-01. My go to drink is a Cortado. Shout out to Soma Cafe for making the best in B-town. The Terra Kaffe is as close to a barista quality Cortado I've ever had from somebody's home.

    Just lost a 5 game parlay b/c SEMO hit a meaningless 3 with 4 seconds left against Belmont to cut the lead down to 102-62. I had the under 162.5. Got the other 4 games correct. Help.

    IUBB vs #13/12 Ohio State - 01/06/22 @ 7:00 on FS1

    I’ve been on the fence on the impact Trey can really have. You’ve sung his praises since day 1. So far you are being proven very correct. Huge spark tonight.

    That OL room couldn't block a dead horse.

    Thank you, that was hurtful. The idiot had it coming.

    As evidenced by the line already moving the other way, you doofus.

    IUBB vs #13/12 Ohio State - 01/06/22 @ 7:00 on FS1

    I expect a pretty big swing and OSU to be favored by about 1.5 by tip. That’s just my completely uneducated amateur gambler’s opinion. I know nothing.

    Apathy

    I'm only taking a stab here so I could be wrong, but my guess is this is as much of an Assembly Hall problem as it is a fans not wanting to come support the team problem. I've never been to Mackey but it appears to be significantly easier to navigate to uppermost parts of that arena. Sure, having a highly ranked team is a huge factor. But if we were ranked exactly where Purdue is, I suspect we'd still get a far less than full AH for teams like Nicholls State. The top 10 or so rows of the main level are barely worth it. The balcony is only a decent view if you're in the first few rows in the middle and even then the trek to get there is ridiculous. So the experience of actually being there is significantly diluted unless it's a marquee opponent.

    TJD’s finishing was awful today. 5 or 6 misses within a few feet?

    IUBB vs UNC Asheville - CANCELED

    Ugh, that sucks. I'm definitely considering the 120% credit b/c it will be good through the game at Kansas next season, though I expect the credit won't even cover half the price of those tickets.

    IUBB vs UNC Asheville - CANCELED

    It was too good to be true. Decided to splurge for great seats for this one but thankfully StubHub appears to have a great policy in place for Covid cancellations. Still gonna take in a few days in b-town though.

    Should be noted that we’ve still only seen Jack Tuttle in: 1.) His very first collegiate start 2.) the bowl game where he played half the game with a separated throwing shoulder and after minimal bowl prep due to covid shut down 3.) playing behind an O-line that exactly zero QBs would look great behind Im not making a statement for or against the guy (though I can’t wait to see how many people take this as me advocating that he’s the answer at QB). Just saying it’s worth noting the circumstances he’s played in.

    Somehow UCF +6.5 was +100 about an hour before kickoff. Jumped on that right away.

    What position does this guy Positive Groupthink play? Hopefully QB?
