  1. Can't blame the kid for going through the experience. I hope he ends up in B-Town though.
  2. Haven't done this yet this year, but: IU - 38 MSU - 35 They're not that good. The Irish should have, well, never mind. They couldn't tackle a pee wee player.
  3. I was there. There was a great "Fire VanGorder" chant as well. See yesterday's firing. He's not going anywhere. They have to be smart enough to know that no one wants the job. Didn't mean to quote this one, but it won't let me delete it!
  4. Been away for a while. Having issues with the "activity stream." I used to be able to hit unread content and it would show just the thread title. Now it's showing each reply in a certain thread. I just want to see the thread title. I set up the "custom view" and saved it, but when I hit unread content, I then have to go in and change it to my custom view, which I ended up saving like 2 times. Is there a better way to do that, or am I just lost?
  5. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers! It's official. Got it. Start the 29th!
  6. Thanks to you both, and glad to see/hear you're doing better Aloha! Stay strong brother!
  7. Usually stay away from boards during the offseason, but came by to ask for a few prayers. Had a job interview on my birthday a few weeks back, and got the call last week with a verbal offer. Still waiting on the written agreement to come through. Just asking for prayers that it's coming. The jobsite I'm off to if I don't get to come home is an impossible one in Iowa that will have me missing Thanksgiving and Christmas with the 4 year old. The new job is in Indy at Eli Lilly, and I'd get to drive over from the Haute every day. Much better than flying all over the place and living in hotels! Thanks in advance Hoosier family!
  8. That was bad. 4th quarter was a joke. Whoever said up top they lost the serious last night is correct. Sure, they'll probably win tomorrow in Indy, but just don't see them having the moxy to close out in Toronto. Was really stoked up until that 4th quarter though.
  9. Well, next man up. Losing his stick will suck, but, they've got more than enough catchers and outfielders to fill the spot.
  10. It's gotta be something serious. The MRI was hours ago and nothing has come out yet. Cubs have depth, but his bat will be missed if it's a lengthy recovery time.
  11. Baseball season! Go. Cubs. Go. Then, football! Sent from my S7 using the BtownBanners App.
  12. Just asking, but is that meant to be a shot at someone? Sent from my S7 using the BtownBanners App.
  13. Saw Yogi getting swatted, plus the jersey yank when he was taken out the last time. No. Respect. OG's dunk. Yogi's multiple 3's.....Boo on "One Shining Moment......." Sent from my SM-G930V using BtownBanners mobile app
  14. They could be set for the foreseeable future. This year should be a fun ride! They were a year ahead of schedule last year, so this year, well, next year is NOW!
  15. Didn't know you could this until now! Great find!
  16. Gotcha! See that now. Guess my brain didn't realize what you typed! My bad!
  17. Just realized there is an ignore button. Yay! Had to do that over at Goldhelmet.com with a few folks. Man.
  18. Also, if you do that, don't click on the title of the thread, but, next to it, the dot, or if you've posted in the thread, the star, and it should take you to the first unread post.
  19. Look to the right and click on the unread posts link. It brings up anything you haven't read, and, by clicking it, at least for me, it takes me to the first unread post in each topic. Hope that helps!
  20. I might get a warning, or a 24 hour ban for this post (ok, i reread before posting, and toned it waaaay down), but: Christ almighty man. Between you, Treesh, and the Bitter dude, give it a rest. Crean isn't going anywhere. The sky isn't falling. Yes, there hasn't been a Banner since 1987. I get it. Knight didn't make the final four every damn year. Neither did half the other coaches in the country. Crean has some learning to do. Had you told me they would've gone on the run they did after Maui and Duke, I would have told you to walk slowly away from the crack pipe. UNC shot the ever living sheet out of the ball tonight. Not their strength, but ours. They beat us at our own game. Crean's fault? Sure. He was the one playing defense. The whole game. Flipping my dead grandmother could've hit 3 pointers on the Hoosiers tonight the way the shots were falling for them. Next year? I don't know how old you are, and frankly, don't care. I'm a Cubs fan. Don't give me that next year ****. It's all us fans hang our hats on. Yes, I may have graduated from Indiana State, but, as I've said COUNTLESS times on multiple threads, I bleed cream and crimson. I was raised on IU basketball. The best man in my in-laws wedding was Coach Ron Felling. I've watched plenty of games from the players tunnel. I want this team to win, and win badly. Sometimes it just doesn't happen. I still think Crean gets coach of the year when it's all said and done. It just seems with some of you guys, there is nothing, and I mean NOTHING positive that ever comes across my screen from you. Be happy with what we had this season. I still have hope for the future. Take away Rojo's injury, and the outcome might have been different. Who's to say? Fire Crean. Get who? Then what if they don't produce in 3-4 years? Fire them, and try someone else? 3-4 years after that, rinse and repeat? Been through it with Notre Dame football, Indiana State Football and Basketball, and, well color me stupid I guess. No, alcohol isn't a factor in my post. We have a sick almost 4 year old, and she spent a lot of the game snuggled up to me on the couch watching with me. Made yelling at officials, UNC's ridonkulous shooting percentage, and, well, everything minimal. I will miss Yogi and the seniors, but hope the youngsters have learned from Yogi and said seniors, and carry on. I'll root for the Irish from here on out, except for the championship game. I want my money, and I have Oklahoma winning it all. I'll take a week or so off, then, Go Cubs Go until spring football games
  21. Yogi, I know you won't see this, but in the off-chance Doc does: My fraternity brother was the Excise Officer who arrested you your sophomore year. Since then, you've grown up a lot, and I am so proud of the young man you have become. It will suck not seeing you on the floor next year, but, I know big things are in your future. Keep on being a leader, both on and off the floor, and the sky is the limit for you!
  22. They're in the bonus at under 4 minutes. Horse poo. Troy might save our behinds yet.
