I know some people on this board think you funny but half the time I think your obnoxious.

I am just telling you what the man said. Also I think all of Roys reasons are possible.

I can think of a few posibilities. Maybe the dates would not work. Maybe Stanford insisted on their refs for both games.

Come on guys. All this speculation about money is baseless. May told our lunch meeting group that there in no shortage of funding for basketball.

I am not sure your last statement is correct. There are a few lawyers on this board who probably have a much better insight into the law profession then Father Biondi. I know of at least 1poster who was the managing partner of one of St. Louis's largest law firms. The new dean may have great character but I don't see how he is qualified besides being a Biondi guy who has Endowed a couple of scholarships. Biondi was desperate so he turned to a supporter.

I would feel a lot better about Rick,s long term future if Biondi would be replaced , but I am not holding my breath.

My question is on the olympics.

Is that a done deal or a proposal?

No,but if you make it a beer I'll say yes.

I guarantee you the Cardinals do not cxl season tickets if you miss your date. Everyone has a grace period.

I think he has sounded hoarse for over a year. I hope there is nothing wrong.

This thread is getting old,but this notion that DE can't put the ball on the floor is crazy. He's got a good first step and the strength to get to the hole. While I do agree with Taj that he has to many misses (blocks) his ball handling is not a problem. Dwayne will the teams most productive player,playing the 3position.

Agreed.

Not to take a shot at the athletic dept. but I think a lot of that credit should go to Meg Connolly(sp) in the alumni relations office. At least give them both credit.

I know your just a SLU grad so don't get cute with me.

Thicks stop being a teacher. You knew what the Wiz meant.

I think we all may be dropping places to sponsors and in kind gifts.

The reason we don't have more Fortune 500 companies has nothing to do with STL it has to do with corporate mergers and or bankruptcies. Busch, McDonnell Douglas and TWA were bought out. I'm not sure if Mercantile or Boatmans were 500 companies but there gone . Ralston Purina ,Pet Milk, and Mallincrodt are others that come to mind. The lack of flights out of Lambert sucks but has nothing to do with corporate mergers.

First, I would never defend Ballpark Vilage,It's a joke. Why the city has not held Dewitt to the fire is beyond me. I also spent the weekend in Cinnci and liked the city. I wasn't blown away with their immediate surrounding area. I thought they lacked areas like Shannon's,Padios,Bucks and Keener Plaza.Too many highways around the stadium. I do agree with Roy that Newport was cool. Just a little better then East St Louis. It's too bad Busch wasn't built on our river. Great American was a good stadium. Bad news was their beer cost the same as Busch. Second most expensive beer in baseball.

I agree with your point but I'm not sure I would call him our best player. Most inspirational yes, best???

Diener never played for Rick. What,s the connection besides Rachel?

Diener was not a Rick guy..

I thought you were going to invite all of us to stay at your house and all we get is a travelogue.

I thought we existed to further the art world. If SLU did't exist a few statue makers would be looking for a job.
