  1. Well, I do have SLU to the Final 4. I think the Louisville game will be tremendously difficult. The Billikens are capable, no question, but I might have voted with my heart on that. Close enough on paper that emotion may have pushed it over the top.
  2. I actually have LaSalle going to the Elite 8 and losing to Ohio St. Not because they're necessarily of that quality, but because I thought K-State soft, Ole Miss hot enough to beat Wisconsin, and Gonzaga untested enough to lose to a game Wichita St. team. Oh, if the Billikens could have been in THAT bracket!
  3. And the UNLV-Suge Knight Connection goes together like ghettos and guns.
  4. Not sure which is a bigger crime, Oregon being seeded 12 or Benson only being 59? Clearly the Committee have never seen 'Superfly - T.N.T.'.
  5. Last I checked, there's a little more to being a University President than having a household name basketball program. And, you'll want to fire your AD following a season in which the flagship sport wins its conference tourney, regular season title, and gets a 3-4 seed in the dance? Umm....priorities, son.
  6. Well, I originally came here to talk Billiken basketball. Again, you might want to go back and look at my original post and the others before that. Now, you want to answer my question Jimmy the Greek? Me and you, head-to-head. You're not afraid are you?
  7. Oh, holy crap, "The Whiz"!!!!!! Hey "Whiz", I've been meaning to toss a proposition at you: how about you and I go head to head on predicting all the remaining A-10 games, including conference tourney. When I win, you must henceforth cease calling yourself "The Whiz" and immediately change your screen name to a name of my choosing. Conversely, you must also henceforth refer to me as "daddy". Sound good? You in?
  8. Oh no, this applies to you as well. And your envy ankle is showing, you might want to cover that up, Pizza Boy..
  9. So I guess the other people pointing out the ridiculous of Burwell's column had come to the wrong place as well. After that, it just turned into a chance for a lot of childish, self righteous folks to attack me. Don't believe it, review the thread.
  10. No, I'm afraid he was never "well respected". In certain compliant media circles perhaps, but yes, even that seems to have faded. Appearing on an espn special as a fanboy of a the topic of a documentary does not "national cache" make. Plus, I don't remember any national platform being the golden ticket to respectability. This is far, far, far from just my opinion. Jesus, even the people he writes for (St. Louis readers) seem to have a very negative opinion of him. Recognizing what's going on doesn't make anyone a racist. What, you think they don't do minority hires in the, of all things, the US newspaper business? Come on, man.
  11. There are racists everywhere. There are also places with populations bigger than Spokane. You're just not in one of them. Tell us what you do for fun, Okie.
  12. Come on what do you do? You don't work in a restaurant, or something of that ilk right? I'm sure you're quite the big deal, right?
  13. How's Peoria these days? Sounds like you're living it up?
