Listener of the Streets

Listener of the Streets (6/7)

  1. At least, I keep you guys entertained trying to figure out that I am myself and no one else. Now we know Utah will be playing against ISU. If they play like they did tonight Schertz's announcement will be coming soon after that game. Utah ripped VCU to shreds.
  2. And what would Putin be doing in the SLU board? He has much to do at a much higher level than I will ever reach.
  3. You have confirmed that money is much more important to you than most other things. Everybody is free to think and have his/her own preferences.
  4. I have an interesting question for you laker 119. I assume you are, or have been married. Think back upon the time you were choosing your wife. Why did you marry her and not someone else? Most people, rationally or irrationally, chose someone sometimes for reasons they do not fully understand. And there is the answer to your question at least a portion of every major life choice is not fully rational or fully understood. There is something inside you saying "this is the one." Take the economy for example, long ago in the XVIII century it was presumed that people always decided upon what was best for them. This is incorrect, a lot of decisions are made without a full understanding of something or the other that may or may not be what is best for the person making the decision. Everyone that has divorced understands this concept. What makes you think that Schertz decision will be totally rational?
  5. Some bad decisions by the refs gave the game to ISU.
  6. Cincinnati came close but lost the game. I was hoping for ISU to lose, after all, most of the game ISU was behind, but they won. I had hoped the announcement would be out tomorrow but not now, we still have to wait. Too bad.
  7. This is an amazing thread. There are people swearing their confidence that Schertz is coming to SLU, and within a day or so there are discussions as to how much would have to be paid by anyone else getting him as a coach to break the contract. A figure of about $3M appears to be required. From my point of view, getting $3 M from Schertz or the other school to break the contract makes sense only if we have another good coach ready to step into the job at SLU. If May is as I think he is, we may get the $3 M but another good coach for SLU may not be so easy to get. I really do not care who May is talking with, as long a someone is there IF Schertz walks.
  8. I do not wish to offend anyone, but after having read the discussion going on I do not feel certain we will get Schertz. I am also quite concerned that May is well on the way to blow this recruitment. However, I can think of something good coming from May blowing Schertz recruitment and having no backup plan. I think that May could gain a pink slip andd be let go if he blows this recruitment.
  9. There is more than that Wiz. There is May and the tremendous confidence he inspires that everything will work as expected.
  10. We can do nothing else. You are getting it slu72
  11. Blizz, you are new here. I will wait just like you will and see what happens, just like you will.
  12. I do not care if you get exited watching these games, I do. Tonight I saw Texas AM vs Houston. Houston was ahead until the very end when TexAM started gaining. By the time 1.2 seconds were left, most of starters in both sides had fouled out. TexAM had the ball and Houston was 3 pts ahead. The ball went into play, TexAM caught it, lob'd it and made the three pointer within the 1.2 seconds giving them the OT. After the OT was close to the end Houston was playing with walk ons and TexAM was out of gas and lost the game. That was a hell of a game. I do not think any team in A10 could play any of these two teams. If you cannot enjoy watching such a game, then what are you doing watching basketball? Betting?
  13. The longer we wait the smaller the pool of available good coaches.
  14. I quit this game with about 40 seconds left and Alabama ahead by 11 pts. I do not think they can win this one. Both teams Alabama and GC played an incredibly physical game. Tennessee better get ready to put more than their normal 100% effort the next game.
