Dan D is an entertainment sports commentator. Conflict and hate are entertaining and mobilizing. Therefore, his modus operandi is to talk hate and controversy. It takes no preparation to be against something. That is why he does it. Ignore him.

By the powers vested in all of the fans and the administration and the media and all others that have ever even walked the hallowed halls and areas of SSAH and The Rock, and/or have frequented this excellent site, you are hereby granted a conditional pardon and made a honorary true fan and provisionally excused from any and all SNAFUs and brain farts until the end of the season. Unless, of course, Indiana loses a football game or a basketball game which is rumored to have been your fault or anybody's fault, or no fault, including Woody's fault, can't be Cig's fault, or refs' faults. Additionally, unless, of course, we otherwise change our minds...and communicate that fact on this site. Except, provided however, that you do not enter the top half of any prediction thread results. To this we dutifully and faithfully communicate our opinions as facts. (Maybe, just maybe, I had one too many cups of coffee.) (Portalstravaganza is definitely worth the price of admission. Well done.)

Who in the Sam Hill 72 Mgbako's Stripes 83

I would like to thank the Academy for this award. And all those people that made it possible. Starting with everyone with points below me.

Stuhoo's selfies:

I've some of that. Fresh roasted, ground, good and hot! I was thinking about feeling sorry for some of their players last night. Just kidding. Hahahahaha

Wow! Thanks to Cig and all. Wow.

Do it! Do it! Do it till you're satisfied.

58! We need two TDs and one point after. Or one TD and two field goals. And an oaken bucket.

Love it so very much!

Is it likely that IU will be rated above 9th seed for the BCS?

Until today. Purdue has always sucked, though.

I would have lowered my prediction of this game. But, I paid no attention to the B'town weather prediction. And I was watching the OSU loss. Plus, the soccer NCAAT game in Denver was on. Glad I didn't change my guess.

Agreed. Was in the Navy. Old timers loved that stuff. Still use it but sparingly on crabcakes and a little on some toppings for fish. Not much though. If you drink enough Ouzo, it won't taste bad.

Tell the cameraperson to move the zoom in a little closer. They do not have to show the 5th row of the far side and the bench on the near side during each play. Feel like I'm watching from Ohio.
